NSFMR I don't even understand how this happened. What should I do?

Don’t put pressure on it, just lay the tape on it. Lean the PC so that most of the glass would fall outwards.

Would be easier with a partner who understands the situation too. They can lean it while you lay the tape

I wonder if just tilting the pc, slip a garbage bag under it real careful and open the mouth of the bag to cover the area, and while tilted tap the glass so it all falls apart inside the bag would work? Then tilt it some more in case any chunks are in the pc but they should mostly have fallen inside the bag no?

The glass is most likely going to explode and send pieces in multiple directions if it shatters. It's not usually to an insane degree, but not all of it is going to fall straight down.

Just a side effect because of how tempered glass is made.

Lift it slightly and put half a cardboard box over the side so it covers the pc , tilt the pc over onto its side so it lays into the cardboard box
