With Stoppard's death it's worth mentioning that you can get the BBC radio versions of pretty much his entire body of work for a single audiobook credit (also available on Audible, but Libro.fm is far better)

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.
At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

Greta Gerwig’s Little Women was well-received when it came out, but it’s still under-appreciated—a skillful adaptation and a work of literary criticism and an attempt to recontextualize the author for modern audiences and a loving work of fan fiction. Such a beautifully written film.
