Most theory isn't super long but does sometimes assume you've read other stuff which is.
So Theory is like the Marvel Cinematic Universe ?
I... You're right and I hate it.
The marvel cinematic universe isn't short nor are the movies in it and i don't think any assume you can read in general
Nah but many modern marvel movies assume you have watched other stuff before. Just like theory
All of history is the history of the Capeshit Struggle
