It's fuckeltoes.

But isn't this something you can tweak within your DE configuration? I'm on Gnome and don't have this issue.

This sounds like a DE thing than a Wayland/X thing.

It's not accurate to blame the Quran for this kind of behavior, as it doesn't condone violence in response to blasphemy.

Instead, there are sociopolitical reasons (and quite recent ones at that) that explain why incidents like this occur in some Muslim countries. In Pakistan in particular, the extreme blasphemy laws are due to a combination of the old British colonial rule and the military dictatorship during the 1980s.

TL;DR - It's certainly lot more complicated than "Islam = bad".

I've been there and it's rough. The worst thing you can do is stay in bed and give in to the cycle of negativity, which will only make things worse. Try to get outside and spend time with friends and family as much as possible, even when you don't feel like it. Exercise can seem like the last thing you want to do, but it does help boost your endorphins and feel more positive.

I also had good results with using techniques Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps to assess negative thoughts and control them to a certain degree.

And if you need something stronger, speak to a medical professional. There are medications that can help.

Stay strong and don't give up.

Yeah, same. Getting past Guardians in BoTW required relying heavily on save scumming until I managed to get it right. Any fight that needed flurry rush was also always a disaster.

You forgot 95% of the GOP platform: culture wars.

Not really, and I think that's because in many games I play primarily to experience the world, find new items, and generally explore. The story itself usually takes a back seat and is rarely the thing driving me forward.

One counterpoint to that, off the top of my head, is Journey, which I always play through to the end scene.

Darks Souls 3, Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, Skyrim.

I love RPGs but hate boss fights, for some reason. Once I feel I've done enough exploration and character development, I invariably lose all interest close to the last boss.
