Wow, talk about a treasure trove. Your entire piece is a treasure trove! I've been a huge fan of Popova and her website for several years and it's one of the few I pay to support. But I never really knew much about her. I could have highlighted every single sentence here! Thank you so much.

I have to say, though, I hate the new name, Marginalia. I loved Brain Pickings and thought it was precisely what she did. I can never remember the new name, whereas 'Brain Pickings' stuck immediately.

But that wouldn't stop me from subscribing. It's an amazing website and I push it every chance I get.
