gollark: What? It has `Nothing`. That exists.
gollark: But if it's `Nothing`, it just returns `Nothing`.
gollark: The thing which makes it monady is that you can do `x >>= f`, which in this case takes a `Maybe` x, and if it is `Just a`, passes that `a` to `f`, which then returns another `Maybe`.
gollark: Anyway, ignoring LyricLy, the bee entity: `Maybe` can be `Just x`, representing that it has an x, or `Nothing`, representing that it contains *no* x. You can do `return`/`pure`, which gives you a `Just x` for any `x`.
gollark: Or possibly binary. Something like that.
