"Few documents that survive from Europe were written by women or even dictated by women. Those that do are often formulaic, full of legal and religious language. Yet the wills and censuses that survive, and which I study, open a window into their lives and minds, even if not produced by women’s hands. These documents suggest that medieval women had at least some form of empowerment to define their lives – and deaths."

@yvonne Thanks for that interesting article by Prof Joëlle Rollo-Koster, which draws attention to the documentary treasures in store for a new generation of historians while perhaps understating the wealth of evidence accumulated by her own!

Like the outlaws Robin Hood and Al Capone, will become larger in legend than he was in life?

@TheConversationUS "Like the outlaws Robin Hood and Al Capone, will become larger in legend than he was in life? "

I've sensed that the outlaw hero archetype of the American collective unconscious, in Jungian terms, has been activated, since vigilantes in cowboy hats were able to defy and other the Obama administration at Malheur (which means misfortune in French) in early 2016. From here in Japan I sensed a disturbance in the force, as it were, and my foreboding has been more than realized as Trump 'rode the whirlwind' and permitted repressed Christians to be their worst true selves, and held Open House for Russia in the White House.

The evil that the outlaw 'hero' does gets lost or laundered in the mythologizing that makes them seem larger than life, legendary. Americans with their collective legacy of the Wild West, Roaring 20s, and notorious con men, are particularly susceptible, as Trump has shown, to following the Pied Piper, or being led into temptation.

Are there currently any Substack replacements that integrate with ActivityPub?

So I'm currently looking for a Substack substitute for taking donations.

I'd want it to feature a blog (and preferably newsletters too) that include a mix of publicly-accessible posts, as well as posts that are only visible to donors.

And ideally, I want it to also integrate with ActivityPub too.

That might mean a Fediverse post is automatically generated when a new blog post is published. Or potentially the publicly visible blog posts are published in full to the Fediverse.

Now, I know there are a few donations platforms that can handle the first part, such as Ghost and Ko-Fi.

There are also blogging platforms such as WriteFreely/Write.as and Micro.blog that integrate with the Fedi.

And in theory you could do both with a WordPress blog and number of plugins, some paid. But especially with paid plugins, that's likely to get quite expensive quickly. (Not to mention some of the questionable things that have happened at Automattic in recent weeks.)

But are there any platforms out there that support both?

Or is the best option at this stage just to get a Ko-Fi/Ghost account for the donations and donor-only posts, with a separate micro.blog or write.as account for the publicly accessible posts?

Automattic is planning to sell user data from its commercial Wordpress hosting service for ML training. Don’t host it with them if you don’t like that.

Of course, people trying to train models are very likely to run their own scraper bots and might suck up anything you publish on the web anywhere.

Performance reviews are just employers controlling the narrative when employees are underpaid

Right?
If you underperform, brutal negotiations ensue … prove your value or the deal is off.

Buuut, if you’re overperforming, you get gold stickers and praise, and the possibility of a pay bump through a process controlled by the employer …

instead of you telling the employer that they have to prove their value or the deal is off.

Instead over performing then becomes the expectation.

@workreform @maegul It is really hard to objectively rate people. On an assembly line if you keep up with the line you are as good as everyone else, if you hold the line back are you worse or does the line need redesign? If you are an engineer it can be years before we discover how many mistakes you made. If you are a salesman did you miss your numbers because the economy is bad or because you are bad?

If we hire 10 people, 2 will be in the bottom 20%, even if they are meeting their responsibilities.

I just came across this TikTok " for their for dinner" remark", and I love how clear the goal and mechanism to achieve it are: if enough people do this one fairly little thing for a full quarter, the powerful will notice, and can be forced to change their behavior.

That's how boycotts work, after all.
