As a Greek man I fully identify, understand and agree.

It’s all the novellas and fill in details about the story as a whole. There’s three common strategies on when to read them 1. Read at the end of book 9 2. Read in order of publication 3. Read at in universe chronological order, which is my preference

It’s a big tent and these are truly trying times, people are feeling a sense urgency with strong emotions tied to the events unfolding, and very importantly how we got here and what can be done. Speaking as a member, all who oppose the regime are welcome here regardless of political ideology.

Why is this a common trait, complaint, goal on this sub? Are the majority of folks here OCD? I don’t buy my books as display item, they’re books, belong on a shelf and I’ve got zero fucks if they don’t match. I do admit there is a bit of perfectionist trigger that I shake off quickly, I know the brain was designed to recognize patterns. But why is this actually posted about here?

and obviously the style

Okay I appreciate the detailed reply, I’m holding off downvoting your comment, disagreement of opinion is valid. Like I said I couldn’t get past the first half, but that we being generous. I couldn’t past the first 20 mins before I noped outta there. It felt lazy, unoriginal and predictable. You’re talking to someone who saw the original two at theaters when they came out, old school. That’s based on love of quality sci-fi and lifetime seeking and enjoying many many great stories, usually novels not as much movies. Series I like quite a lot. Anyway Romulus didn’t strike any chords that made me intrigued, not one. Maybe I’ll push past the beginning one day but again after a lifetime of knowing what I like and feel is good, if they can’t compel me in the first 20 minutes they don’t deserve my attention. To each their own, good hunting.

Precisely, for many it’s gaudy and for many it looks natural and fits. I’m dark complected olive skin and gold looks good on me, I prefer silver and rarely wear either. When I was younger out prowling and hunting I sported some jewelry. Now the only ring I wear (silver) was given to me when I got my blackbelt in Bando representative of a level of attainment, the Royal Boxers ring as it’s called in Thailand and Burma. While it’s simple and not flashy iykyk and other practitioners can spot it.

Romulus was so formulaic and unoriginal I couldn’t get past the first half, it sucks.

Spot on in my book. Shit I’ve got 5 of exact same shirt I bought lightly worn on ebay for $20, Goodfellow & Co. I wear it almost every day, only puy on other after 5 days or so.
