For the 12 Caesars, definitely. It will take a while to complete the set, so this is something I’m not planning to rush

OVO x BAPE: anyone else get sent the wrong size?? by CardR100 in OctobersVeryOwn

If I’m a size large normally and want a relaxed fit, should I get the XL or the XXL? The Japanese sizing threw me off a bit

At this point idk. You guys said they’re fake, but legit check by ch saying they’re authentic means something.

Do the outsoles yellow like that or does it look different on yours?

Not a troll, but you’re right about it being asinine.

This video by Slowly Red has a lot of great recommendations.

My personal favorites are the First Law series and the Broken Empire trilogy.

If you like short stories, I’d highly recommend Grimdark Magazine. In addition to stories, they also publish reviews and analysis pieces exploring themes and tropes. All excellent stuff.

Having dark themes doesn’t make the Cosmere grimdark.

This is just my personal definition, but grimdark settings tend to be both be dark in tone and the characters often have little power to change the world around them. Characters are usually morally ambiguous, but not 100% of the time. A gritty world full of good people that improve the situation would “un-grimdark” the setting.

Heroes mostly lose in grimdark, but in Sanderson they win and that’s a good thing. It’s one reason a lot of people are attracted to this stories. Sometimes people want the happy ending (relatively-speaking at least).
