A huge #BBNYA2026 welcome to @toomanymargins.bsky.social and A Life in Too Many Margins!

Good luck!

I have gone many years without a word from anyone. I understand. I'm sorry that people can get so distracted, I'm absolutely sure it's just the stress and ADHD of the world.
Hope your birthday was ok and that you sleep great. Night! 🫶🏻

Seriously, though. Because life has been uber-busy for eons now, it had been ages since I'd actually taken the time to sit down and read a book (sad, I know). I *made* time to read this one and it was SO worth it!

I had an OG Tomagochi in 1997. It gets old fast.

I know you know I'm a professional hurt person.
My whole extended family calls me to ask about when to go to urgent care vs ER and whether to ice or heat.

😂

Yeah it would be like one bruise maybe with a small scrape.
Now, tell me he was CLIMBING a tree and I'll say totally, that's the mask off siding his butt back down - BEEN THERE.

Aha! There you are. Thought I misplaced you.

Uh no.
As someone who has had every injury that exists in the known universe, this is rug burn or someone hit him with something rough and dragged it.
You can't get the right angle on a tree to go so high and also get the nose.
TRUST
Maybe an accident but if it was why lie about what made it. 😒

Being disabled is inherently political.
Being queer is inherently political.
Being autistic is inherently political.

Please don't tell me that I don't "need to engage in politics" when politics is dictating my body and entire life.

Fuck off.

Think this is the beginning or the end of the war between Heaven Hell and Earth?

You're providing an important service.

If you were scrolling online and saw something that caught your eye then made you laugh and click the link to see what that book is about....
WHAT WOULD THAT THING BE?

Yeah exactly. Having game or being charismatic and "smooth" was riz I felt the same.
So blaze is more the action though? Like I can blaze someone as opposed to he's so blaze?

Whoa typing macking on just gave me flashbacks.

Fuck yeah!!!!!

Now someone do PBS!

Oh so it's not like riz?
Isn't riz like "game". Someone HAS riz. Blaze is a verb you're doing? Like what was "macking on" in the 90's?

Riz is short for charisma.
How does blaze work?

I'm lucky. I already had that.

If anyone is at Book Con, make sure to stop by and say hi to André at their booth (they pronouns)!!!
They'll be so happy to see you. Mention that you know me if you want an honest review of A Life in Too Many Margins by the narrator themself! 😜

Yeah I'm 45 and I'm looking ahead like whoooboy.
I'm "lucky" though that I've also had a much harder life than most so that'll help with the not feeling like I'm lacking support.

Psychology says people who reach their 60s without close friends aren't socially broken — they spent so many years being the person everyone leaned on that they never learned how to ask for support, a... They built their entire identity around being everyone's rock, never realizing that by refusing to show cracks, they were teaching the world they were made of stone—until the day they discovered even ...

Well ouch.
This hit hard.

Amazing Pub Day today! 🌈📚💙
So many people supported me on Instagram and my two signings at local bookstores are coming up starting next week (maybe I'll call it my mini book tour).
I've already sold over 300 copies.
All of the LGBTQ centers in my state have a copy in their library.
