There’s an intersex documentary tonight on channel 4 at 10pm for those in the UK who’d like an introduction to intersex issues.

It was so cool to present at the Tanzquartier Wien (Contemporary Dance Institute of Vienna) yesterday. Thank you so much for the invitation to share my work and for setting up my presentation like a Bond Villain!

Dark room lit up by some evil looking red slides in front of a creepy table. Hugely cool. Living my best evil life.

Had such a wonderful time at the Intersex Insights conference in Dublin this weeks. Brilliant to meet up with colleagues old and new and also loved spotting a well thumbed copy of our book in the wild!!

Our book covered in highlighter pen and scribbles

Big shout out to my patronus and its subsequent death

Newspaper headline reads: Blind bisexual goose named Thomas who spent six years in a love triangle with two swans and helped raise 68 babies dies at the ripe old age of 40.

So PSA the account @timstephen.bsky.social is posing as an international law prof and then trying to hawk bitcoin to people. Probably safer to block.

2024! The year of the karaoke! Huge performances from @alimalik5.bsky.social @seanbutcher.bsky.social @kisbyd.bsky.social @courtneyleader.bsky.social @henryyeomans.bsky.social and many others! No clips of that because karaoke is better left in the moment but what a night! 10/10

Me, Henry Yeomans, Sean Butcher, Ali Malik and Sam having some delicious water after a hard evenings karaoke. There’s a Beatles picture behind us. Is that a metaphor? A prophesy? We’ll see!

In silver place is 2021 - post Covid and a lot of people pulled out due to health concerns pre-Xmas. This only left a hardcore crack team FULL of Xmas spirit. 10/10

Craig Newbury-Jones, Beth, James and Jen Hendry happy as you like. 2am in North Bar.

Solid midpoint in 2019 - hung out with @kisbyd.bsky.social and @courtneyleader.bsky.social for the first time. Top laughs. Got into an ugly argument with someone about trans rights at about 2am. 7/10

In last place is 2022 - had to duck out early due to childcare. Missed my bus. Got on a bus that I thought went near my house. Guessed wrong. Me and Beth looked great though 5/10

Phew, caught that security tag just in time.

Elf on DVD with a security tag that says ‘Security Protected. Remove before microwaving.’

Chris was in my interview at Leeds as the student rep in 2015 and I met Jen the day I was offered the job. We’ve had some amazing times and I wish them both all the best in their new roles. Much love @jenhendry.bsky.social and Chris!

Jen and I when I found out they were leaving getting lairy on a random Monday

It’s the last day at @lsjleeds.bsky.social for these pair of absolute legends @jenhendry.bsky.social and Chris Dietz Both of them have been intellectually stimulating, wonderful colleagues and fantastic drinking partners. Both of them have made an indelible mark on the centre and will be missed

It’s @whiterxbbit.bsky.social presenting on ‘Ectogestation as emancipation’ where she looks at technological and legal imaginations in feminist utopias

Christmas decorations are up and Muppets Christmas Carol is on. Time to get festive my friends!

Travis Christmas tree is about quantity not quality and instead of an angel we have a Christmas fish. I don’t remember why.

The latest offering from the Jurisprudence of the Future Project. This one featuring the astronomical talents of @glexareen.bsky.social @amwaltermann.com and many others who’ve yet to arrive on this plane of existence!

Another book? That’s right. ‘Science fiction as legal imaginary’ with those Routledge covers. You know the ones.

Mitch Travis @profmitchtravis.bsky.social · 16/10/2024

No. You arranged your books to look like a level on Mortal Kombat.

My three books; A Jurisprudence of the Body, Cultural Legal Studies of Science Fiction and Intersex Embodiment.

A Jurisprudence of the Body and Intersex Embodiment both have figures on them arranged to face each other. One is walking towards whilst the other is jumping backwards and emitting a kind of rainbow. This could be interpreted as a ‘special move’.

Mitch Travis @profmitchtravis.bsky.social · 15/10/2024

Also, and I’m not sure if this is supposed to be like this or what, but mine features a ‘non-more black’ Spinal Tap back cover. Pretty goth.

My copies of Cultural Legal Studies of Science Fiction have now been delivered to my home! Super exciting. You too can know this feeling for the bargain price of £108 😂😂 www.routledge.com/Cultural-Leg...

Cultural legal studies of science fiction edited by Alex Green, Mitchell Travis and Kieran Tranter.

It’s got one of those Routledge covers which is ANNOYING but it does look pretty stylish.

Had such an amazing time at the Transcare conference in Cork, Ireland. Met such inspiring people and delivered one of the keynotes with Fae Garland!

Poster for trans care conference reads

Cultivating intersex, trans and gender diverse inclusive education in healthcare. Feminist, trans and queer perspectives.

13th and 14th September

Me and Fae Garland laughing because we can’t use computers or work slides

Fae and I by the conference poster. Fae looks like a Wallace and Gromit character somehow.

So happy to have spent yesterday at the Modern Law Review funded workshop ‘Bodies of Law’ organised by @zainamahmoud.bsky.social and Mireia Garces De Marcilla Muste!

This is the picture I want interviews with the Guardian about my tech entrepreneurship to use.

Nice picture of me but I’m wearing elf trousers, surrounded by the ugliest carpet ever, warhammer and terry Pratchett books and drinking a cup of tea.
