How are Discord.Collection()s handled with v14?

This is my index.js: https://srcb.in/Vl8vb6Crkg

taco-cat-bot/index.js:11
client.commands = new Discord.Collection();
                              ^

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'Collection')
    at Object.<anonymous> (/root/taco-cat-bot/index.js:11:31)
    at Module._compile (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1105:14)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1159:10)
    at Module.load (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:981:32)

Now my bot comes online with no errors and the prefix is defined BUT nothing logs via messageCreate.js No errors, it is like it doesn't listen.
