This.
It’s normal here (UK) to write “not at this address” and put it in a postbox. It will be returned for free, and this specific wording lets the sender know it was rejected because the person doesn’t live there anymore (rather than because you’re simply rejecting it)
It’s definitely not a “rouguelike” because it lacks the number one important aspect of either roguelikes (or rogue lites ) which is random generation.
It’s not really bullet hell because while the enemies can shoot the focus is not on dodging bullets but on finding any viable way to manage the hoard, which could involve kiting or tanking, dependant on your build.
So what common elements does the genre have, if we look at games like Vampire Survivors and Brotato?
So maybe:

I’m trying to swear less. Or rather, to swear only where a swear is warranted.
My Dad has a habit of interjecting constant cuss words into everything he says, like “I was at the fucking supermarket right and then I’m just trying to find a fucking tin of beans…” and it’s just so unnecessary, to the point where the swears mean nothing because they are just peppered everywhere. I have to keep reminding him, “Dad, please tone it down a little”
And that’s an easy habit to get into but its exactly what I don’t want to be doing - swearing just as punctuation.
If a situation calls for a swear then I will swear quite happily, “Ouch, my fucking toe!!” and I’ll use the proper word. There’s no need to find childish swear-alternatives.
But I don’t want to sound like I can’t even stop it.
Fascinating read.
I got into mechanical keyboards during the pandemic, and realised as I read the article that this typeface is right here on my desk, on the letters of my keyboard, looking back at me. Never thought about where that lettering came from, or that it would have such a long history.

This is the answer.
Fan-made trailers of existing media can be really interesting, especially when they put a very different take on the presentation.
Example: Star Trek the Motion Picture in a more modern style makes that movie seem amazing.
I chose lemm.ee mostly by chance, but I think that it’s worked out okay for me.
My impression is that it’s a mostly neutral instance which doesn’t really have a strong agenda, and federates with most other instances. This is definitely what I want, because it gives me access to the most content.
If there are communities or users I find I have issues with, I can block them myself.
