    Most of the posts here are webcomics made by pmjv, the poster of this thread – though other people can and sometimes do post their own art. pmjv makes a surrealist webcomic (see Analogue Nowhere) that incorporates various themes and imagery related to Unix-derived and Unix-adjacent operating systems.

    Note that the imagery drawn from is not just things associated with Linux (which famously has a penguin mascot), but also OpenBSD (started by Theo de Raadt and which has a pufferfish mascot), Plan 9 (which has a bunny mascot called Glenda), etc.

    There are elements from other fandoms (e.g. Cirno, who appears in some comics, is from Touhou and is associated with ⑨ because of an old joke – which seems to have become entangled with Plan 9 in pmjv’s mind), influences from tech politics, and whatever other crazy things are bouncing around in pmjv’s head.

    It’s good surrealist fun, generally.
