"The last three essays I've read have all been so incredibly interesting: "The Mythical English Reader" (thought-provoking, as a translator from English into a smaller European language); "Right to Access, Right of Refusal", on translation or the lack thereof in Deaf communities; and "Combined Kingdom: 'decolonising' Welsh Translation", on Welsh as a colonised language in a country that participated in colonialism." — Apr 23, 2024 10:39AM

“I Go Down To The Shore
I go down to the shore in the morning
and depending on the hour the waves
are rolling in or moving out,
and I say, oh, I am miserable,
what shall—
what should I do? And the sea says
in its lovely voice:
Excuse me, I have work to do.”
― A Thousand Mornings: Poems
