sooooooooo,
my steam seems to be broken beyond any sort of repair. I've just tried literally everything that comes up anywhere online for the last 2 hours, with no success. But the game was working fine earlier today.
I'v even deleted every single instance of steam on the computer, literally everything and tried fresh install. still no luck.
In console, the errors I keep seeing are:
"failed to load Steam Service"
"ServiceStart: failed to start"
"Errors in resource/styles/steam.styles"
"Unknown key 'visible' set in style 'html-findbar' in file 'resource/styles/steam.styles'"
"Unable to create bundle with URL /Applications/Steam.app/Contents/MacOS/osx32/steam"
I've searched for all of those, and tried anything and everything that comes up, and still no luck.
I get to "Connecting Steam account: [account]..." and then it freezes and just spins indefintely. the last thing i see in consol is
"SteamID: #########, universe Public" 3 times, and then nothing. doesn't go after this point.
Help, anyone??

okay.... this is the weirdest thing now... after i posted that, i went to steams forums to post about it.... and after logging in, steam opened!
on console though, i stilll get the failed to lead Steam service, as well as now failing to connect. is it possible something was wrong with my account that SOMEHOW was crashing everything?
