Borked bazzite with user systemd configs in home. How do i recover?

So completely my fault, but I broke steam game mode again and it just blacks screens see https://universal-blue.discourse.group/t/auto-turn-on-tv-no-hdmi-cec-and-auto-start-apps-with-gamescope-session/4262

Basically I'm overriding the steam game mode session sytemd to do some custom stuff on my user

Before I was able to recover to recover from this by following https://docs.bazzite.gg/Advanced/rescue-and-emergency-mode/?h=eme

And then just running
 just _toggle-autologin
 just _toggle-autologin
to make it skip steam game mode and just boot into KDE. Then I could fix my systems services in my user folder and set it back to auto boot steam game mode

Problem is now I'm getting this io error when I try to do that

The home directory is not available in the emergency shell so I don't know how else I can get to my users systemd files
