I noticed on startup my computer is saying “Failed to start D-bus system message bus”

my sway session would not start

I switched to dbus-deamon-units and now sway will start with seatd, but i can’t, for example, use notify-send as it says starts because of seatd, but, if i try to, for example, send a notification, it does this

Error spawning command line “dbus-launch --autolaunch=82fe279a661a4ecdb58cb22596899103 --binary-syntax --close-stderr”: Child process exited with code 1

I suspect I may have setup dbus to run as root with systemctl or something? but I have no idea what’s going on and have been at this for hours, any advice would be helpful

Also, it takes two attempts to run commands, zsh is saying zsh: corrupt history file, and there's a line with ^@^@^@^@ all throughout it.
