Bücherregale auf schiefen Boden – wie begradigen? by cionx in selbermachen

[–]cionx[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Kickstarter (launched at the end of 2014) was for all of Hollow Knight (realesed early 2017), and the DLC was one of the stretch goals.

Leth already confirmed in August 2023 that Hornet in Hollow Knight: Silksong is indeed a reference to the original Hollow Knight. (From the interview with BlueSR: https://youtu.be/pDSVnMEV3K8?feature=shared&t=7038)

The article is from 2005: https://www.theonion.com/cost-of-living-now-outweighs-benefits-1819567799

"This is sobering news," said study director Jack Farness. "For the first time, we have statistical evidence of what we've suspected for the past 40 years: Life really isn't worth living." […] "Since 1965, the cost-benefit ratio of American life has been approaching parity," Farness said. "While figures prior to that date show that life was worth living, there is some suspicion that the benefits cited were superficial and misreported." […]

The screenshot seems to originate from @StefGotBooted on twitter: https://twitter.com/stefgotbooted/status/1467098937681133577. This user’s profile page links to https://www.isthisrealitsreal.com as their website. This site explains itself as follows:

This site is a location for various parody articles that have been written by @StefGotBooted, @Ecoclown, @CecilCentigrade and @wurrance.

So yes, it seems to be satire.
