Downloaded macOS game apparently needs Steam, but won't run even though it's been added to Steam. Any ideas?

As per the title, I downloaded this game, have added it to my Gatekeeper exemption and disabled SIP and all that, and even though it’s added to Steam as a non-Steam game, all I get when it loads is a message saying “Steam not found, please start through Steam client”....

Good Omens: Season 2 is finally upon us, and it's wonderful. ( www.imdb.com )

I loved the first season because I’m a huge fan of Pratchett and Gaiman, so was a little nervous that the next series, with no source material to adapt wouldn’t hit the mark. But then I saw that Neil had asked John Finnemore to help him write it, and that sealed it for me. No one could replace Terry, but John Finnemore comes...

You ever think about how borders and countries are just some extreme rich guy shit that we've all been trained to believe are real?

Like, the only reason countries exist is because some rich guys decided that they ruled this chunk of land, and everyone else just kinda said “Yeah, whatever, I don’t really give a shit, just let me farm and leave me the fuck alone”....

Justice sensitivity made driving very hard for me, before I figured out what was happening, and trained myself to be more chill behind the wheel.

I mean, you see some Grade A, top choice weaponry piloting their fucking Audis about on the roads, driving far too fast, sticking right on people’s arses, flashing their lights, beeping their horns, and generally being copper-bottomed shitcunts. And that drives me fucking mad.

But I listened to a podcast a while ago, during which the host noted that one of the things we tend to do is get angry with others for breaking rules that we make for ourselves. My values when driving are not the same as someone else’s. Someone else believes it’s perfectly reasonable to flash their lights at someone who’s only doing 90mph in the outside lane because they want to continue doing 110mph. Me getting angry at that person form my car isn’t going to help them understand that they’ve broken one of my personal rules, so why bother?

This shift in mindset has really helped me to chill the fuck out when driving, which in turn has permeated into other areas of my life. People don’t share 100% of my values, and that’s mostly ok.

But I won’t say that I don’t get really pissy when I see injustice being perpetrated by the rich and powerful. How former Presidents and Prime Ministers keep getting away with all manner of fuckery because society is built for them. As a result, I’ve mostly taken to ignoring the news, because otherwise I’d just be angry all the fucking time.
