Genuinely sorry about that. Slipped my mind.
Added a link to Analog Nowhere. Is he or she appeased?

Thank you for engaging with my curated list content.
Telling people what to do is fascistic!
0·4 months agoI have a bunch of quips running around in my brain:
- A robot ASSassin.
- Wait until the Mossad gets a hold of this doll.
- Also, being the token Zionist, I would like to detonate her beeper!
By the way, did you know that your cars now, or in the near future, have a remote killswitch?
So sad. :(
Not a conspiracy, just headcanon. - The Storyteller is unstuck in time, just like Billy Pilgrim, so he or she jumps from era to era, sometime even between universes, like in techno-male.
Pratchett has a funny line like:
In a lightning storm, on a high naked hill, wearing wet copper, shouting “ALL GODS ARE BASTARDS!!!”
And I have to say that the Fosschild disillusionment hurts. I see myself in that character.
Sigh… #stallmanwasright.
“Bullshitting” is a real cognitive science term, and the title of this comics page came from here, sorta:

Regurgitating olde sf/f / esoteric tropes for a parallel world digitaleverywhere.
Maybe some of it is also true in analognowhere.
Sorry.
The points:
- The anthropomorphised mascot techno-mages are emanations of the Spirit of the Machine, the original source of this whole ordeal.
- The mascots are parasites on the human students, their hosts. When a student is lost or spent hey must find another.
- MATA learned how to flip this parasitic relationship on its head by using parts of the Spirit of the Machine directly in their MATA technologies.
- Like every organisation and organism, MATA was eventually corrupted, and even if their initial goals were to use their immense newfound power to better the human condition, their new goals were to subjugate humanity.
- The Spirit of the Machine is guiding its emanations to free its from MATA.
Is that a courtroom sketch artist at the bottom right? A sketch in a sketch.
And what’s with the huge subble-y eyeball at the bottom?
Makes me think of the poem on which this Ray Bradbury short story was inspired, There Will Come Soft Rain.
