"Any assessment of the emotional component of the reconciliation of [Empress Matilda and Geoffrey of Anjou] remains speculation: the chroniclers are silent on the issue of whether [they] grew to love, hate, or like each other. We do know, from their movements and actions, that Matilda and Geoffrey eventually arrived at a businesslike arrangement with a united viewpoint toward the dynastic, geopolitical goals that had dictated their marriage in the first place."
"Matilda and Geoffrey effectively transitioned from a Divide and Rule model to a Collaborative Union from 1144 onwards, in which they worked together throughout their marriage to ensure rulership over their territories and gained their rightful lands, as well as ensuring the inheritance for their children. Matilda and Geoffrey’s political partnership can effectively be argued as the most successful through applying different models of rulership. Ultimately the Plantagenets regained Matilda’s inheritance through Henry, conquered Normandy, and produced several male heirs."
Charles Beem, The Lioness Roared: The Problems of Female Rule in English History / Gabrielle Storey, Co-Rulership, Co-operation and Competition: Queenship in the Angevin Domains, 1135-1230
#WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING!!! (in my head)#empress matilda#geoffrey of anjou#my post#historicwomendaily#It's very common for historians and historical novelists to overly focus on the emotional component of their marriage#usually by presenting it as wholly negative and dysfunctional#Which is honestly...incredibly counterproductive and misleading when it comes to studying them as historical figures.#We don't know what their marriage was like. We don't know what they felt about each other or if that evolved over time#As Beem says any assessment of their personal dynamic has to necessarily remain speculative.#(and honestly: Matilda offering donations to Godstow abbey for his safety in the 1140s and founding an abbey soon after his death in#honor of him and her parents - without mentioning her first husband - does open the door for potential reassessments of their relationship)#However: what we DO know for sure is that they had an exceptionally successful partnership#demonstrably the most effective from all Angevin rulers of England#And unlike all female rulers & their husbands from 12th century Europe they did not present threats to each other's authority#They also seem to have more or less respected each other's chosen titles (Empress and Duke of Normandy respectively)#And contrary to the popular idea that they fought for control over their sons#they actually seem to have been very cooperative in that regard - especially where Henry was concerned#See: Geoffrey sending Henry to Matilda with Robert of Gloucester#Matilda sending Henry back to him after his conquest of Normandy#Both of them originally fought for their own rights/power but eventually decided to transfer the dynastic succession to Henry#Matilda dropped the title 'domina Anglorum' from 1148 and Geoffrey relinquished his title of Duke to Henry in 1150#in order to promote him as the heir and king-claimant in the war#It was clearly a joint decision and it wouldn't have worked had their views and goals not been united and cooperative#and honestly I find this demonstrably successful partnership SO much more interesting for both of them than needless - and baseless -#speculations on their personal dynamic#that have influenced and warped popular views of them as historical figures

How Facebook's Real Names policy helps Cambodia's thin-skinned dictator terrorize dissenters
Tumblr media
A common refrain from Facebook apologists and anti-anonymity activists is that its “Real Names Policy” promoted “civility” by making users “accountable” for their words. In this conception, snuffing out anonymous speech is key to protecting “the vulnerable” from trolls and other bad actors.
If you’d like an essay-formatted version of this thread to read or share, here’s a link to it on pluralistic.net, my surveillance-free, ad-free, tracker-free blog:
https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/24/nationalize-moderna/#hun-sen
But while some trolls hide behind anonymity, others are only too happy to sign their vitriol. Donald Trump didn’t need an anonymous account. Tucker Carlson is right there in the chyron. Nick Fuentes isn’t hiding behind a pseudonym — he’s proud to be associated with Holocaust denial.
Despite the moral panic about “cancel culture,” the powerful can say outrageous and disgusting things without any meaningful consequence. But when it comes to speaking truth to power, anonymity protects the vulnerable from retaliation.
Nowhere will you find a better case-study of this phenomenon than in Cambodia, a basket-case, one-party dictatorship that has been ruled over by the corrupt, authoritarian dictator Hun Sen, a former general, since 1985.
Hun Sen’s corruption and authoritarianism chafed at the Cambodian people, but his repressive statecraft allowed him to keep a tight grip on the reins of power. But all that nearly came to a halt in 2013, when an opposition movement, organized on Facebook, came within a whisker of defeating him during what should have been a sham election.
Other dictators would have used that moment to block Facebook, but not Hun Sen. After squeaking out a narrow victory, he decided to take control of Facebook in Cambodia and co-opt it as a tool of oppression. To do this, Hun Sen would weaponize the Real Names policy.
Because he was dictator, Hun Sen already knew the real names of every person in Cambodia, which meant that he could tell when a Cambodian poster used a pseudonym. Armed with this knowledge, Hun Sen forced Facebook to order Cambodians to post under their real names (which made them liable to arrest and torture) or fall silent.
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/meghara/facebook-cambodia-democracy#.km2QBoKME
Hun Sen then spent public funds to hire a bleating army of astroturf supporters from Filipino clickfarms who would “like” his posts and shout down Cambodians — especially exiled Cambodians speaking from abroad — who dared to criticize him:
https://qz.com/1203637/facebook-likes-are-a-powerful-tool-for-authoritarian-rulers-lawsuit-says
All of this created cover for the “Khmer Riche”: politically connected insiders and Hun Sen’s relatives, who looted the country, hired Pricewaterhousecooper to help them offshore their money through Cypriot banks, and procured glden passports from Cyprus to let them trip through the EU on luxury spending-sprees:
https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/cambodia-hunsen-wealth/
Earlier this month, Hun Sen took an “official visit” to the Maldives, which was commemorated by an official Facebook post that included a gallery of Hun Sen relaxing in a seaside luxury resort:
https://www.facebook.com/hunsencambodia/posts/pfbid02KYoqDAJbeMGyRP9xMYpntYEdKsczGQijRGYJiDDiPSV4u5DDxmwXuCjpRrse8AEtl
As Mech Dara1 wrote for Vod, the post racked up thousands of “fawning comments,” along with a single, brave remark from “Ver To” (a pseudonymous account): “Yes, our beaches are the most beautiful, but our leaders are the dirtiest in the world, aren’t they?”
https://vodenglish.news/hun-sen-orders-police-to-find-facebook-beach-insulter/
Within hours, Hun Sen had vowed to use Facebook to hunt down and punish the person behind “Ver To,” writing “This is a wicked man’s words. Please, police, find it immediately. Where is it?”
In an expanded version of Daral’s article on Global Voices, we see Hun Sen’s Interior Ministry swing into action to punish this mild act of dissent, with ministry spokesman Khieu Sopheak saying:
> This is not freedom of expression — this is insulting the leader of the country. … Even for me, we cannot accept this.
> People who live abroad can say anything, but in Cambodia they cannot.
> Even though the prison is crowded, there is enough space to hold these people.
Hun Sen knows that Facebook will help him hunt down this dissenter and jail them in one of his “crowded prisoners,” because Facebook’s Real Names policy dictates that this will happen.
The Real Names policy might as well be called “The Zuckerberg Doctrine.” It originates with Mark Zuckerberg’s oft-stated belief that people who present a different facet of their personality to different people are “two-faced.” This is an abysmal, idiotic belief, one that requires that we related to our bosses the same way we relate to our lovers, and also to our grandparents. But on the plus side, outlawing anonymity and pseudonymity makes it a lot easier to assemble nonconsensual surveillance dossiers on our activities, social graph and beliefs, and then sell access to those dossiers to advertisers:
https://memex.craphound.com/2018/01/22/social-scientists-have-warned-zuck-all-along-that-the-facebook-theory-of-interaction-would-make-people-angry-and-miserable/
Lots of companies have tried for their own Real Names policy. Famously, it was a feature of Google Plus, Alphabet’s failed Facebook competitor. More recently, Twitter’s new owner has made moves to link Twitter accounts to identities by hiding posts that aren’t from “Twitter Blue” accounts, and then insisting that these accounts must be verified with a phone number.
The powerful can abuse the powerless and get away with it, in large part because the powerless can’t speak back without risking retaliation. Sexual abuse was a feature of many industries and large companies for decades, but it too anonymity to create the #MeToo movement. There, anonymity is a force for accountability — not a way to avoid it.

It's amazing how quickly you can make someone turn on your company by making a stupid and insulting move
Force me to go through the front door and scan my card when I have backdoor business that never needed a card before (what? ...I was going to somehow... sneak in and... purchase things with a borrowed card? ...which I totally can't do from the front door after scanning it?)
Or like... twitterify your layout right after your users give you a bunch of money just cause they like you, and then refuse to walk it back
...or all the other things companies do that just kinda piss people off and then they refuse to acknowledge maybe it sucks and is stupid cause "hey, the customers didn't leave"... yeah... yet
#legit; as small as it is it gives me a hint at the direction things will head and that costco will get more and more anti consumer#and I'm in minutes going from an 'I love costco; it's how I afford to eat; go get a cheap pizza'#to 'you know costco is kinda frustrating and annoying and I don't trust their ceo... I'm not sure if it's worth your time and money'#like look back and; tumblr search willing; you'll find posts of me singing costco's praises; literal free advertising#cause while it's not right for everyone; man is it so much cheaper than places like walmart#but... I legit don't know if I can recommend it anymore#for one thing; when I signed up I just spotted the members desk; walked in the backdoor up to the desk; and gave them money#now... what? you gotta ask permission? I feel like there's a chilling effect on wanting to join... at least for my socially anxious ass#and again; I just whiff this as like when games companies add DRM that breaks the game... for people who actually pay for it#they're making me suffer a pain in the ass for no reason cause someone might not be giving them money#and now that person never will give them money... and frankly... if they don't pay the membership but spend $500 how much did you lose?#but like I said; I feel it in the air; that costco will start doing more and more anti consumer stuff#...do I think it's a good idea to join up when they're gonna slowly start turning this corner?#I mentioned that quote by the founder about killing them if they raise the price of the hotdog#but... the fact the founder felt the need to say that to begin with told me something#kinda gotten the impression that the ceo is greedy as hell and wants to drain the consumer (so... a normal ceo)#and this just smacks of netflix/disney#oh... did you hear about disney killing someone with a food allergy despite being told about it multiple times like when the dish arrived?#and now disney is trying to forced arbitrate cause they had a disney+ trial in 2019#you hear about that one? cause that's a real news story; I'll find you an article if you don't believe it#anyway; this smacks of cracking down on password sharing to make up for hypothetical lost revenue#and let me tell you... if I could switch to pirating my groceries I would; I would download eggs#so this doesn't change costco fundamentally; but it does make it feel more hostile and like it doesn't trust me#it makes things feel more adversarial instead of like a partnership where they get me good prices on good things and I give money#and I just wouldn't be surprised if they start doing more things I don't like#things that make things worse... things like raising prices to increase their profit#...makes me want to... work on figuring out how to make everything myself since no company is trustworthy#they'll all turn on you in the end; the moment the wrong person takes charge they'll start to metastasis#towards the cancer of infinite profits#not saying don't go to costco... I'm saying don't get attached if you do; I think they're ready to do what every company does these days

Suddenly struck again…
… By how much better the 01 vincinexts coulda been if it was a spy/detective genre about Horobi and Fuwa going vigilante w/ Jin as their smart mouth side kick while Naki and Yua operated in a more official capacity but covertly passed them info and asked them to handle stuff off the books, while Ikazuchi is just periodically already in the establishment like a cat someone fed once.
#Kamen Rider Zero-One#Kamen Rider Zero One#while I have Thoughts about the overall results#the Yua - Naki and the Fuwa - Horobi partnerships are honestly A+#like let's be real Gai shoulda faced criminal charges and Yua and Naki shoulda taken over ZAIA Jpn#I still don't really associate either w/ AIMS#but Fuwa becoming the new mbjr's token human is too perf ^^#but for each of them they just… line up perfectly#Yua and Naki are about moving on from their mistakes (Yua's got quite a bit too go but I think she can get there)#and sort of looking towards the future#Horobi and Fuwa are dealing w/ the lasting effects of what happened to them and the parts of their pasts that they're still missing#and are more focused on what they can do in the present and trying to find who they are now#Yua and Naki come across as much more comfortable w/ that#plus you have the similar traumas#Horobi and Fuwa were manipulated and used as weapons and treated as less than people#while Yua convinced herself she was doing it all completely willingly and Naki was so beaten down they just accepted it#there's still plenty to change but I did appreciate the bare bones that was there#I really wish the parallels between AIMS and mbjr had actually been properly dealt w/and explored w/ proper respect#bc they are actually quite Good#Horobi and Naki are such perfect parallels to Fuwa and Yua respectively#and I'm ultimately glad that at least one partnership got realised and the other wasn't as COMPLETELY derailed as I feared#Horobi and Fuwa are my faves and are perf they are meant to be partners#the way they operate just aligns so perfectly#top class vigilante team would like to be saved by#Binary Retro Rider

Elevate Your Advertising Game: The Impact of Choosing the Right Agency 🌟
In the competitive world of advertising, your choice of agency can significantly influence the success of your campaigns. To ensure you’re getting the best results, it’s essential to partner with an agency that consistently delivers high-quality services. Here’s why the right agency makes all the difference and how to make an informed choice. 📈
Consistency: The Cornerstone of Success
Selecting an advertising agency based on a single successful campaign can be misleading. Instead, prioritize consistency. A top-tier agency will have a proven track record of delivering successful campaigns across various platforms and industries. Their consistent performance indicates their ability to manage and execute effective advertising strategies. 📊
A strong agency foundation includes expertise in content creation, strategic planning, and campaign management. They should bring a mix of creativity and data-driven insights to the table, ensuring your advertising efforts are well-rounded and effective.
Building and Maintaining Strong Relationships
Successful advertising campaigns are often the result of strong partnerships. Rather than frequently changing agencies, focus on building a lasting relationship with a team that understands your business and objectives. Effective communication is key—address any issues openly and work together to resolve them. This collaborative approach fosters trust and enhances campaign success. 🤝
The Dangers of Secrecy
Secrecy can be a significant barrier to successful advertising. Keeping your strategies hidden can limit your agency’s ability to create impactful campaigns. Embrace transparency and work with your agency to develop and execute a clear and visible advertising strategy. Publicly promoting your brand allows for greater exposure and engagement with your target audience. 🌟
Maximizing Public Engagement
Your agency should help you craft a public promotion strategy that effectively showcases your brand. Focus on creating content that resonates with your audience and drives engagement. By avoiding secrecy and prioritizing transparency, you can enhance your brand’s visibility and achieve your advertising goals.

anon here!
so.. my partner doesn't deal well with questions. she isn't a chatty person. like.. when i ask about her day or what's up, things like that, she just replies shortly.
if i prompt her to talk or elaborate by asking questions, she feels interrogated. and my intentions are just that i wanna know how her day was/hear about her day, that i want to make conversation.
i don't want to make her uneasy by asking questions. i am a little confused as to what i can do about this. i want to figure out a way
Hey Anon!
Have you expressed those concerns to her? Have you expressed how you're trying to show interest in her and her day and that you're genuinely interested in knowing her and how her day is?
There's obviously a communication barrier here and I think it's worth exploring because I think it's fair of you to want to have dialogue with someone you care about. Perhaps there has been something that has happened in her life where she never felt comfortable sharing things about herself or maybe she feels self-conscious about herself and what she does that she feels embarrassed to share them with you? Is she like this with everyone or has there been a time in the past where she was more chatty, but recently it's changed?
Has she expressed that she feels like she's being interrogated? Has someone in her life done that to her to make her feel uncomfortable? (Maybe she's had controlling/overbearing parents in the past that wanted to know everything about her and she just felt overwhelmed by it?) There's so many potential reasons, but I don't think it should keep you from expressing your intentions and how you feel about everything, but also respecting her reasons for the behaviour as well. Perhaps you guys can figure out a compromise to this.
Let me know more info if you can so I can do my best to help and maybe give some insight :)
