There are more things in heaven and Earth, Miss Donlan, than are dreamt of in your philosophy. "...I'm becoming aware that I'm staring. I'm like a rabbit, stuck in the headlights of vacuous crap Maybe it's the Hamlet she just quothed, Or the fifth glass of wine I just quaffed, But my diplomacy dike groans And the asshole held back by its stones Can be held back no more..." Sorry, I can't help but think of Storm whenever I hear that quote now Same here. Sadly, Tim Minchin is still spot on about Storm, whether "10 minutes back in time" or 10 years forward to now.

I suspect there is a continuum between matter and ether, or at least that's a good way to look at the comic, but the subjective seems to be real in some sense. That would include the perception of time. "Errors" of the mind appear to be one of the causes of magic or supernatural (for lack of a better word) powers and time is something that most humans (possibly all humans in the Gunnerverse) consider fluid. That may be what makes time travel "easy." Wow. You have just written my favorite explanation so far for the origin of magic/supernatural phonomena/etheric manipulation. "Errors" of the human mind. It also explains things like a human seeing feminine beauty in a rock and creating a God.

...and why Coyote doesn't exist/can barely be said to exist.

I suspect it's tied to the androids' (evolved robots') deaths too ... in the future. What I mean is that someday, some of them will die and be taken into the Ether, and their beliefs about the past will shape the Ether in the past. Exactly when they die isn't important (to this effect, in my theory). And so the robot angel will have come into being (I'm not sure the right verb tense for this concept exists). Foun this in this very thread, from 2020. Yeah, one robot DID die.

Duplicate. Can't delete. And was meant for the "cool things" thread anyway.
