This took me a minute to wrap my head around (I should honestly be in bed)—I have purchased games on sale I already owned for free through another shop and then never played and forgot I already owned.
I buy buy loads more games than I have time to play and books than I have time to read because I want to support the artists.
Of course in some ideal world I'd have time for them all but in this one, I want artists making the kind of art I like to thrive regardless of my lack of time.
I once accidentally subscribed both myself and a friend up for three years of the New Yorker because they had one of their insane promotions — it was like a dollar a month or something — and the subscription confirmation page didn’t load fast enough so I kept sending the subscription through.
What keeps happening is I change the sort order and go "how am I only at 40% achievements in Portal??" or whatever and then I replay that for 80 hours trying to get some stupid thing

Might have to become a Twitch streamer JUST to justify all the money I've spent over the years
Don't those guys have FACT-CHECKERS?
(and how do they know me so well and do they maybe wanna be friends or hang out some time I mean they really *get* me, man..)
