I felt thing after stopping at season 2 and hearing about it after s4 started. I decided to catch up. I enjoyed it over all, but still felt it was too slow. Out of any “slow burn” character-driven shows show I at least moderately enjoyed it by the end? I’ll forever rue watching all of Mad Men.
Similarly, I will never go back to finish The Wire, The Americans, or Homeland after this.

Guess the current federal admin will somehow now find even more reasons to freeze Harvard’s federal funding! Totally legitimate reasons. /s

A game, where depending on opinion, $20 is only $20.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong is out now on Steam - and it broke Steam servers for 15 minutes and counting now 6 months ago:
It was an absolutely solid - if a bit too difficult for a “casual” player - metroidvania with a lot of great art and gameplay decisions behind it from a truly small, independent team. The price was “indie” level even for its time. Absolutely affordable compared to what was available even then. If you vived with the game, it was a wildly enjoyable time sink for what the developer asked for. Silksong was announced as a potential DLC from the get go; it was pushed back to a full game. Seven years later it’s now here, with that many years of built up good faith in Team Cherry that they would only release it when they felt it was fully ready. Also, Hallow Knight got a couple high quality, free updates since its initial release.
I personally thought Hollow Knight was above average - brought down by how obtuse its direction was while playing. I never got into the “extra” things, but most committed players wildly enjoy(ed) it.

The ol’ Stinkfist got some new exposure via Alien Earth’s credits. A wiley crew, that Noah Hawley & team.
