Well, here it is, if you're interested! :)

YouTube atheists: “Atheism isn’t a monolith! Stop lumping us together like we’re all the same!”

Also YouTube atheists: “Every atheist was raised a Christian and became an atheist in their late 20s. Literally no-one has ever grown up as an atheist, ever.”

I was feeling creative last night, so I drew my character, Maya, as a redback... drider, I guess?

Let me know what you guys think! :)

Seriously? We’re halfway through the 2020s and professional YouTubers STILL don’t know how to zoom in on their browser?

@bobsheaux.bsky.social Hi Mr. Sheaux! Just thought I let you know I recently published a book titled Beeing Proud: My Life With Autism, a children's book about a young autistic bee girl, and both the pros and cons of being autistic. I was wondering if you'd be interested in doing a review thereof?

Okay, I know autocorrect can be crazy sometimes, but how does “Scansoriopteryx” autocorrect to “sandpipers”?

I know they’re both maniraptoran dinosaurs, but they don’t sound anything alike.

@autisticlauren.bsky.social Hi Lauren! You might remember me from the site that shall not be named. How are things going here?

Well, anyway, I came to tell you that I recently published a children’s book based on my own experience as an autistic person. Feel free to purchase, or go spread the word!

I just published my first book!
It's about a young bee girl with autism, and she copes with it in her day-to-day life. This is a fun educational piece that's suitable for all ages!
