Come hear about our research! I’ll be talking loosely about my book project but also about the Welsh-language poet Rhys Prichard and his 18th-century translator. :)

Delighted to share the finalized flyers for my practice-as-research event next month! 🤩 Concluding performance is open to all and will be opened by a critical/contextual talk from me. Happy to set up a Zoom link if anyone is interested in tuning in from beyond Swansea!

Spellings and formatting mimic early modern print. And composite image of Will Kemp morris dancing and the effeminate man on the front of Haec Vir is featured.Welsh translation of the English-language flyer.

Somewhat relatedly, trying to learn Welsh pronunciation when I still haven’t figured out how to sound normal with my new, deepened voice is a trip.

“Bryn” is Welsh for “hill” and also a gender-neutral name I tried unsuccessfully to make happen for myself. Now that I’m moving to Wales I can’t decide if it’s lucky I don’t share my name w a ubiquitous topographical feature or if it’s too bad because “Hill” is a great Nonbinary Noun Name™️

It's notable that rfk describes autistic children as a destroyed "resource" when he complains about autism stopping people from working. Here you see how eugenic ideology functions as a bridge between capital and fascism.

literally who the fuck cares if autistic people never write poems or play baseball or whatever the fuck. you don’t get to do eugenics because you can’t understand that disabled people are fucking people with lives of their own that are worthwhile even if they don’t meet your arbitrary criteria
