No, I am unfortunately a meme thief and should not be allowed in your chat servers.

My guess is that it was made by the person who listed themselves as the author. It's a mastodon username there.

Good lead; I found it: This meme is by @sirobsidian@fosstodon.org, based on a toot by @aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place.

Thanks for sharing it!

Thanks! That explains why I wasn't able to find the original when I just looked for the name. Great detective work!
