I’ve been letting Bub’s functional Steam Deck go, downloading all of his games like a good little soldier.

…okay, maybe most of his games. I’m not quite willing to splurge on a Deck with a larger internal hard drive unless these things have really been proven to last, and we didn’t quite get the bang for our buck that I had hoped we would get with the last one. So I’m piling them on several at a time to ensure that he has all of the ones he is currently playing or would really want to play on a car ride or in the doctor’s office on the Steam Deck going from there, and I’m dealing with the city that we live in being the city that we live in again (since when are local ATMs not skimmed? it’s gotten to the point that I know exactly what I need to do in order to get any fraudulent transactions reversed in a prudent enough period of time, although I would seriously just as well never have to deal with this again because I would much rather not live in this area, but I digress…).

It’s going to become so much more annoying than it already is stopping at the local branch of the bank that operates out of the grocer near my house to pop off food money and rent as I need it, but it certainly seems like that’s actually going to have to be done to prevent my debit cards from ever being skimmed. Again. Sigh.
