A benefits system where we disabled people must repeatedly prove our suffering, while mistakes can take months or years to correct, is not compassion.

It is a system in need of reform (not the political party).

A Life in Too Many Margins is a darkly funny, deeply personal journey exploring life at the intersections of queerness, trans identity, disability, neurodivergence, and chronic illness. It blends memoir-style storytelling with sharp humor and emotional honesty, exploring themes such as growing up misunderstood, navigating trauma, relationships, identity, and the exhausting, sometimes absurd work of trying to exist in a world that wasn’t built for you.

Ok. #Fashion people: I want this blazer but I've spent a month trying to build an outfit around it and I'm at a loss. I finally picked the white tie to match the shoes but that made me stuck on the pants that can't match anything. 😕 I can't find pants that match the stripe/plaid bit. 🤦🏻 Help?

Apparently my surgeon didn't do "top surgery" so much as a double mastectomy which didn't get rid of the breast tissue under my arms so some lumps cane to visit me.

I was told I have the family history. I was told I have the gene. But I was also told that after top surgery I didn't need to worry. So why am I a trans man with breast cancer? 🤦🏻

Happy #ChronicAwarenessPainMonth (or well, not so happy because I suffer from chronic pain). If you're in pain, trust me I know how exhausting it can be. Hang in there. It may not get better (I am honest) but you're still worthy and doing great and YOU ARE NOT ALONE. #ChronicIllness #Disability 💜

Amazing to wake up to someone's excitement over my book, and just when I thought that was as chuffed as I'd get, a reader even commented on that post too!!! 🥹🌈🏳️‍⚧️🫶🏼💜
A screenshot of an Instagram post by user @kelpywashere featuring a book mail care package.
The image shows a open box packed with items, including a black book titled A Life in Too Many Margins, a small Trans Pride flag, a purple face mask, a dark green notebook with a pen, bookmarks, stickers (including a rainbow "Safe Space" sticker and a "books > humans" sticker), and small animal figurines sitting on top of a stack of cards.
The caption below reads:
"Omg @toomanymargins thank you so much for the book mail! I tried to show as much of it as I could but this was beyond thoughtful from one queer chronic spoonie to another 🌈🏳️‍⚧️🥺❤️📚. I cannot WAIT to dig into this. The masks, the dyslexia reader (how did you know I’m dyslexic and immune compromised? Also did you know you gave me my first trans flag? 😭 in nonbinary baby). The stickers and little guys already made me and my wife so happy and I can absolutely say this entire box will be used 🖤🖤 sending you the bestest vibes, good hours and 🥄s. 🐈 #chronicpainawareness #queerbooks 🏳️‍🌈 #spoonieproblems #disabilityawareness and thank you so much to o @indiebookstack for running the disability pride giveaway 🥺🖤"A screenshot of an Instagram comment section overlaying the book mail photo.
A comment from user @buriedinbookspnw reads:
"Oh my god! I loved this book so much. I felt so incredibly seen I cried a few times and felt wonderful after. It was like a therapy session and talking to a best friend at the same time. I hope you enjoy as much as I did ❤️❤️"
A red heart icon next to the comment indicates it was liked by the author.

A light purple graphic tracking progress for a "2026 Reading Challenge."
At the top left, text reads "My goal for the year:" above a yellow starburst shape containing the handwritten number 150.
To the right, text reads "Books I've read so far:" above an orange badge containing the bold number 237.
Across the bottom, filled-in template text reads: "I am 87 books ahead / behind schedule (circle one)". The number 87 is handwritten in purple marker, and the word "ahead" is circled in bright pink marker.
