Can't log in in gdm

Now I know this was posted hundreds of times but all of the solutions I've seen didn't help me solve my problem. This isn't the first time it has happened, I just usually wake up next morning and everything's working. I decided I should tackle this for once, though.
Running a 980Ti with the latest Nvidia drivers. linux kernel, nothing special about it.
I've disabled Wayland login and that didn't help.
Journalctl -xe https://ptpb.pw/CMjC
There was a gtk update today, so that is quite possibly it (journalctl points to it as well).

What do I do?

You somehow forgot to ask a question....
Notably what you try to do (log into what kind of session) and what you get instead.

Trying to log into my user (on boot up, if that matters) and instead after entering my password and a long wait I get booted back to the login screen.

..... and into what kind of session? desktopn environment? gnome? kde? openbox? ... ?
that is the step which fails, so the detail is quite relevant here.

Gnome

Tried "gnome on xorg"?

Arch Linux
