STILL TIME (Due April 27th!): How have Indigenous/colonized populations appropriated the ‘medieval’? How has this appropriation shed light on the settler-colonial ideology that permeates medievalism? There is still time to submit to NCS 2026! Why not submit to my panel?

I am really saddened by the level of vitriol and hatred being directed toward the trans community. We are losing our common humanity. How hard is it to treat people with kindness and respect? Trans people are human beings — and they deserve to live in dignity.

Extremely embarrassing question for Norse folks on X: I *know* snakes/serpents are used as euphemisms for the penis in ON, but I am struggling for examples. The best think I can come up with is Hrútr in Nj. who 'launches wound-snakes'... other examples?

#medievaltwitter: bodily fluid and gender question. Men's bodies are humorally 'hot' - men don't have breastmilk because its heated to blood, etc. Would you think that there's something gendered about saying that a man's urine is 'hot'?
