Just trying not to spiral into depression too hard by distracting myself with video games. And also trying to maintain my daily things. And do my appointments and chores and things like I'm supposed to.

I wonder what the closest thing to a video game was a century ago.

Probably card/dice games with some gambling and alcohol on the side.

Also it just occurred to me and I googled it. The first pinball machine was created in 1931. So that's pretty cool. Love me some pinball.
