Dedicated to those who did and didn't give up on me.
Thanks to the Abilene Public Library South Branch, The Grace Museum, and Wild Bill's Pawn Shop - all real places in Abilene, Texas. On May 14, 2024, I took some pictures of those places, and they didn't seem to mind.

Here from TMBGareOk, what a wonderful film!!! :D
Why thank you!
splendid work !
Thank you!
This is wonderful, thank you for making this. With all of my little quirks, I'm always worried that I'm going to drive away even other adhd/anxious/autistic people, and sometimes I DO annoy people for reasons outside of my control, but one things for certain, infighting isn't going to help anyone, especially with the cruelty we face daily. I just hope we can all be a little more open minded to each other and our struggles.
Thank you for your kind words and your valuable perspective.
Came across this on the Abilene subreddit. I know it's difficult but do your best to ignore those cruel people or at least remember they are projecting their own sense of self doubt and insecurity onto you and others. Not everyone is going to dismiss you. I live in Abilene and it's a shitty ableist, racist, bigoted town. I'd leave if I could but here we are. I'm pulling for ya.
Thanks, friend. I'm dealing with a lot already (the past couple of months have been rough) and I especially don't need some indignant fuckhead telling me my struggles aren't real. That's what the film is about. I've just been trying to relax and appreciate the fact that I'm satisfied with the product and that it's out now. People who matter are seeing it and are kind of giving me high marks for it. I just can't thank you enough.
EDIT: Looking at my Reddit post on r/Abilene, I think the guy who responded with such insensitive remarks got his comment deleted.
I love the voice acting. You all sound lovely. I get vague Peanuts vibes from this. Not sure why, but I enjoy it. Great job 🤙🏾
I love the voice acting too - Alle, David, Devery, Eric, Genny, Lec, Quinny, and Tex did amazing jobs and i can't thank them enough. Charles Schulz's illustrations are such a big influence on my art style. Thank you for the kind words!
idk what this is bur i love it
Why, thank you!
Dude this is amazing
Thank you so much!
Hey dude was watching your Beatles collection and this popped up. Really well done man as someone with autism I can relate to a lot of what you’re presenting here! Well animated well voiced and defo deserving of at least a like from me 👌
Oh my - well, thank you very much for that. I'm glad you enjoyed that.
wait this is so cool and real
Thank you, I appreciate that!
woah so cool
I never thought in a million years that someone I've never met before would think of something I made as "cool". Thank you very much for that, I'm actually flattered.
Great work!
Thank you Richard!
Could I use some clips from this in a video (I commented earlier as sharp_swf)? I'd like to talk abt some of my favorite shorts under 10k views
I don't mind at all, as long as you give proper credit -- and send it here when the video's finished!
@charlesmichael190 will do!
@@sharptxt Thanks! I love what you're doing with your own channels. Keep up the good work.
Holy shit, arent these teachers in general ed supposed to know how to treat special needs students and give them certain special liberties and work with resource room teachers!?
Not when I went to school, unfortunately.
