It’s like they forgot what happened to Digg. They have forgotten the face of their father.

I had to DMCA some of my stuff off the site to get it to stay off.

They have forgotten the faces of their fathers. The entire reason people left Digg in the first place was because they tried to make ads unavoidable. And oh look that’s the entire reason Reddit is killing third party apps. They’re intent on dying the way Digg did, for the same reason.

Yes. Absolutely. I was a kid in the 90s and discovered Geocoties and HTML and all the really basic shit when I was like 12. And it felt like that.

Thom and Moiraine’s mutual interest was something that was never shown outright until book 11, which is why it comes up in the context of “what? when?” But there is a lot going on that’s easy to miss on your first read or five. Obviously I’m a fan and recommend giving it another go - my perspective has changed significantly in the 15 years since I first read it. But it’s also a serious undertaking. So if you decide to I hope you enjoy it and share your thoughts. :)
