one of the next places I want to take #transmadness as an epistemic approach is ask what happens when we totally abandon attempts to legibilize, say, trans autistic reasons for transition.

what kinds of (k)new knowledges exist at the crossroads of “non-sensible” / “nonsensical” / “unadvisible” / “inadmissible” trans(ition) strategies?

#bookishadvent belated day 23, #smallpress edition is [...] by Ava Hoffman –– Hoffman's visually and topically experimental poetry book toys with expectations of legibility levied on trans narratives. This is #transMadness, recoded.

I wrote a hybrid essay for Nat. Brut. on my experience with osteoporosis, Madness, disorderly bodythings, and experiencing care. It's out today.

Claire Oshetsky, an #ActuallyAutistic #neuroqueer writer-friend I love dearly, won this year's William Saroyan International Prize for Writing. Check out a convo I had with them over at Craft Literary + give their book, CHOUETTE, a read (it's fucking amazing)
