What I assume is the "Deepnest" of Silksong evokes a similarly simultaneous feeling of "I want to keep going, everything is exciting" and "get me out of here, this place sucks!"

Honestly, I just sat in this screen for a while and soaked in the beautiful score. This moment has finally come.

There’s SO much stuff made elsewhere that just *won’t* or *can’t* be made here.
Physical music and books in other languages, heck, I got some Japanese music kit I’m using in a project out *just* under the wire before things fell apart utterly.
This is only going to hurt us, but that’s the point.

On Friday, the U.S. is ending its de minimis rule that made it easy for cheap goods to reach consumers. The change will affect roughly 4 million such packages processed each day.
What will the end of the 'de minimis' rule mean for U.S. consumers?

Hollow Knight: Silksong has now been referenced or has made an appearance at the most recent Nintendo Direct, Summer Games Fest, and Xbox Showcase (basically THE marketing tool for the new handheld), and yet not one of those included an actual trailer, release date, or update from Team Cherry. 🤯🤦🏻‍♂️😵

What a fun concert by @discocactus.bsky.social and the New Haven Symphony Orchestra yesterday! The Hollow Knight arrangement was particularly excellent and @lauraintravia.bsky.social was sublime singing City of Tears (not to mention everything else she did). Encore was a great "Last Surprise" too!

The sooner people accept that TLOU show is not / will not / and should not be exactly the same as the game, the sooner they will enjoy the show.

(big story beats that define the story are obviously there regardless)
