A pastel-colored graphic with playful stars, flowers, and hearts features a bold, critical message. The text reads: “HIGH FUNCTIONING (adj): An outdated medical way of saying ‘You suffer quietly, so we’ll ignore it.’” The quote challenges the term “high functioning” as dismissive and invalidating. The handle @toomanymargins is credited on the right side of the image.

The Drake meme. The top says "Books that gently explain what autism is." The bottom says "Books that scream 'OH MY GOD YOU DO THAT TOO?!' while lying on the floor."

A flat lay of a desk with a white keyboard, coffee cup, and notebooks in the background. Large text asks: “Why did you write this book?” Below, smaller text reads: “Because apparently, when you keep telling people your life stories, they either laugh so hard they cry, or cry so hard they laugh, and enough people told me I had to write a book that I eventually gave in. Turns out it’s way cheaper than therapy, though with more confusion over semicolons.” Tag: @toomanymargins.

Fatigue (n): Not "tired." Not "need a nap." This is soul-deep, cell-level exhaustion where blinking feels like a cardio workout. No amount of sleep helps, but everyone keeps shaming you for not getting more anyway. http://toomanymargins.com @toomanymargins

A vibrant, colorful graphic with whimsical flowers and swirling shapes on a dark background contains the text: “Pronoun Tension That moment of silence after someone uses the incorrect pronouns for you, and you know it’s about to get weird.”** The phrase captures an awkward but relatable social moment experienced by many trans and nonbinary individuals. The handle @toomanymargins is noted at the bottom of the image.

A colorful graphic with a vibrant floral and botanical border features the text: “HRT Side Questing: The phase of hormone therapy when your body, mood, and soul are all changing, but none of them decides to tell each other.” The background fades from green to teal with whimsical 3D-style flowers and leaves. The post humorously describes the disorienting and often chaotic emotional and physical experience of hormone replacement therapy. Credit is given to @toomanymargins in the bottom right corner.

Promotional graphic with a pink grid background featuring a book review for A Life in Too Many Margins by S.E. Thomson. On the left, the book cover shows a rainbow wheelchair trapped in a mousetrap labeled ‘discard asap.’ On the right, a dark text box with the heading ‘Reader’s Reviews’ shares Lily Whichard’s review: ‘Dark, hilarious, and painfully real. This book made me laugh at things I definitely shouldn't have, and then punched me right in the feelings. Finally, a story about being autistic, disabled, and queer that isn't "inspiration porn." Read it before everyone else does, so you can be smug about it later.’ Below are five stars. Hand-drawn hearts decorate the image, and the handle @toomanymargins appears at the top.

Prologue Day 9,997 of pain. Week twelve of being told that this specific issue is all in my head. Hour seven of staring at the beige hospital blanket that has exactly three blood spatters on it. Why does every hospital blanket ever have at least one bloodstain on it? I'm in a hospital gown that ties like it's afraid of commitment and strapped to a heart monitor that won't shut up every time I, gods forbid, breathe irregularly for even a moment. Which is funny, considering breathing irregularly is the reason I am here. That, and getting ignored by a deeply underpaid parade of doctors with clipboards and God complexes. Plot twist: this time, as of five minutes ago, they finally believe me. Sort of. Or rather, they believe the fifth CT scan, which revealed that I am full of blood. That grey section on the scan is supposed to be black, and that means I'm screwed.
