A quote by author S. E. Thomson (A Life in Too Many Margins) that reads: "Tell me again, haters, how the government doesn't want disabled folks to die out." There's an angry cat yelling in the bottom right.

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

Anyone else exhausted?

Pink square with black handwritten text defining “Accessibility (n)” as “A basic human right, often treated like a luxury upgrade.” The background features swirling marbled patterns in teal, purple, and white, and the bottom of the square includes the handle @toomanymargins.

What do you think of this definition?

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.

The first page 😉 #spoilers #za Life in Too Many Margins!

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."

Satirical ad-style image promoting a fake product called “ToxiClean™,” featuring a washing machine surrounded by folded laundry, a detergent bottle, and an iron. Text at the top reads: “Feeling sad, angry, overwhelmed, or just generally autistic? With ToxiClean™, you can wash all those inconvenient emotions right down the drain where they belong!” A gold badge claims, “Now with DOUBLE the gaslighting!” and a blue sticker says “Get Special 15% Off.” The tagline at the bottom asks, “Because why validate trauma when you can spiritually bypass it?” Fine print mockingly lists side effects like “bottled-up rage, emotional isolation, chronic guilt, spontaneous eye-rolling,” and “the urge to throw a succulent at someone who says ‘good vibes only.’”

NOW WITH DOUBLE THE GASLIGHTING!

The image humorously defines the term “Doom Scroll” like a dictionary entry: DOOM SCROLL (v): Passive consumption of digital sadness until your eyeballs forget what dopamine is. It’s posted by @toomanymargins, blending sarcasm with a sharp truth about how overwhelming constant negative news or social media can feel, especially relatable for neurodivergent or chronically online folks. The sticky-note style and warm color palette give it a casual, friendly vibe despite the heavy subject matter.

A soft-toned graphic features the word “Stimposium” in bold, followed by a playful definition: “An unplanned autistic party where everyone’s stimming and nobody’s making eye contact. Bliss.” The background is a painterly, calming scene with white candles glowing in a dim, bluish room. The image conveys a cozy, accepting vibe, celebrating neurodivergent joy and comfort. The handle @toomanymargins is shown at the bottom.

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.

A bold purple infographic defines “Ableism (n)” with the following text: “The casual, constant reminder that society was not built for your body or brain. Often disguised as ‘concern.’” The design features decorative geometric accents in purple, green, and black, and the username @toomanymargins is displayed in the bottom left corner. The message humorously critiques how ableism is often subtle and masked as well-meaning behavior.

portrait recruitment flyer with light blue, pink and white background shapes, reminding the trans pride flag with wavy lines. There are also four 6-petals flower drawings placed around the text, two have pink petals and a light blue core, two have light blue petals and a pink core. In the top left corner there is a black QR code with the text "survey". In the top right corner there is the University of Edinburgh logo. In the bottom right corner there is another black QR code with the text "audio". At the very bottom there is black text over white background reading "Any questions? Email us at s1935747@ed.ac.uk". Most of the flyer is taken by the central text. This includes a large title in light blue and pink "Researching trans-autistic healthcare experiences", with a blue speech bubble reading "Any healthcare" next to the title. Below the title there is a subtitle in dark grey, reading "from trans-autistic perspectives". Below this subtitle there are additional information in dark grey and black, reading "Anonymous 1hr interview. Questions can be shared in advance. £20 interview compensation. You can participate if you are: autistic (including self-diagnosis), trans or gender-nonconforming, over 18, and live in Scotland"
