The book is filled with antidotes from current employees and ex-staff doing a good job by putting across a balanced side to how Netflix is great for some and not an environment for others.

Either way, what matters more is that it’s well written, Jack and Daniel are quite in-character, and has a happy ending. But I’d say it’s like a 3 on a scale of 1 to 10 when it comes to fics with that kink. Yes it’s dubious consent in the beginning. Because honestly this story isn’t even that explicit. I do understand though why some folks hesitate to be associated with kinky fics in today’s era of fashionably extreme judgments bordering on fanatical censorship at the hands of kids who can’t seem to differentiate reality from fiction.

In these distinct environments, people of color experience an unequal distribution of emotional labor as a result of negotiating both everyday racial micro-aggressions and dismissive dominant ideologies that deny the relevance of race and racism. Based on in-depth qualitative data combined from two individual studies, we illustrate the processes by which white institutional spaces create a complex environment where people of color must navigate racial narratives, ideologies, and discourses, while simultaneously attempting to achieve institutional success to reap the material rewards of these elite institutional settings. This article explores the connections between white institutional spaces, emotional labor, and resistance by illuminating the shared experiences of people of color in elite law schools and the commercial aviation industry.

She also wrote biographies, translated from the French and edited a celebrated symposium on English Aristocrats. A member of one of the aristocracy's more eccentric families, and educated at home with a clutch of siblings, Mitford used childhood experience, lightly fictionalised, in her comic novels, including The Pursuit of Love (1945). Nancy Mitford (1904-1973) was born in London. But beneath the glittering surfaces and perfectly timed comic dialogue, Nancy Mitford's novels are also touching hymns to a lost era and to the brevity of life and love from one of the most individual, beguiling and creative users of the language. In The Pursuit of Love, Love in a Cold Climate and The Blessing, her extraordinary heroines deal with armies of hilariously eccentric relatives, the excitement of love and passion, and the thrills of the social Season. Nancy Mitford's brilliantly witty, irreverent stories of the upper classes in pre-war London and Paris conjure up a world of glamour, gossip and decadence. Nancy Mitford's Love in a Cold Climate and Other Novels casts a finely gauged net to capture perfectly the foibles and fancies of the English upper class, and includes an introduction by Philip Hensher in Penguin Modern Classics. |
