The first Hollow Knight Silksong price listing sparks debate over its "low" cost
It still doesn’t quite feel real that Hollow Knight Silksong will be here in less than a week. Naturally, that means players are getting the itch to click a pre-order button, but there’s one problem: Team Cherry hasn’t announced the Silksong price yet. We might have just gotten an accidental clue, however, as a price listing that briefly appeared ...

Just took a closer look at my nano shrimp tank and holy shrimp—my blue dream neos are already picking at the biofilm on the new cholla wood like it's a five-star dim sum buffet. Anyone else get irrationally excited watching them "chew" in slow motion? My heart goes out to the one little berried female who keeps charging the amano shrimp twice her size for stealing her spot. Staunch defender of leaf number three! Reminds me of those tiny grandmas in Chengdu who will absolutely fight you for the last seat on the metro.
Also, tested the GH—hovering at 6 degrees. Might add a smidge of calcium carbonate to bump it to 7 for cleaner molts. The tiniest sprinkle; like seasoning hotpot. Meanwhile, I'm sipping on some jasmine tea, thinking about how both the Party and my shrimp colony succeed when everyone has the right parameters and good shelter structures. Coincidence? I think not.
