Steam on linux has tons of games. But not all of them (Baulder's Gate 3.)

My computer goes into night mode a few hours before bed (reduces the blue and dims). Then I dim my light about an hour before.

There is a good fix for the tasks thing. Keep a notepad near your bed. As you get into bed, anything on your todo list you are worried about gets written on the notepad. Get in the habit of looking at the pad every morning. Then once you write it down, you should be able to let it go. And if you wake up because you remember something, just grab the notepad and scribble it down (doesn't need to be elaborate, just a word or two to trigger your memory in the morning.)

Come to think of it, listening to the Levar Burton Reads podcast would probably work pretty good as well.

The App 'Calm' which is good for meditation also has sleep stories. There is a great one by Levar Burton describing the solar system.

youarenotsosmart.com psychology, sociology, & more. Sounds boring but is fascinating. His own description:

The central theme of You Are Not So Smart is that you are unaware of how unaware you are which leads you to becoming the unreliable narrator in the story of your life. You Are Not So Smart is a fun exploration of the ways you and everyone else tends to develop an undeserved confidence in human perception, motivation, and behavior. I hope you’ll rediscover a humility and reconnect with the stumbling, fumbling community of humans trying to make sense of things the best we can.

Brilliant people are only brilliant at their area of expertise. They can be horribly, even dangerously stupid in other areas. What's worse is that they often think they are brilliant at everything. (See Linus Pauling, vitamin c.)
