Love just be quiet now and have a wee rest with a cuppa, stop trying to ( and failing) start a pile on. Go eat your soup and talk to your mate.

Looks like diversion tactics like when you're trying to distract your mate from making a tit of themselves during an argument.

It’s also just a clear dick move of a bully who knows that her fans are watching. Instead of addressing the claim, she takes on a condescending tone and downplays her role in order to belittle the questioner. Am not totally clear on the modern vernacular but I think this is an example of catfishing?

Gaslighting!

But I thought she read multiple books a week

Oooh, careful there, if you try to keep up with each individual lie you’ll get sucked into the void

God, someone needs to make her her own thread, she's just as bad

Christ, how to sink your magazine before it's even started. How about giving a column to, you know, someone who's actually been through it instead of a full-time identity appropriator?

The Sia situation she's decided to go off on is one of those things that makes me feel really old and bizarrely right wing despite knowing I am quite far left. Is not casting an actor with autism to play someone with autism that bad? Isn't the point of acting that you...don't need to be or have the qualities of the person you're pretending to be? Does thinking that make me Piers Morgan?

ETA - why doesn't she just not read here? It's so easy to not come here.

I agree with you, but sadly think in some people's eyes that does equate us to Piers Morgan. I feel a lot of nuance is missing on social media. Also, two things can be true at the same time, I.e. it's important to have diverse casting AND you shouldn't have to cast only autistic people to play autistic characters.

Can't wait for the inevitable burnout after she has to write a couple of articles.

Maybe this will be what sinks her

I think it was previously suggested she got her own thread but at the time she had a locked twitter account and not enough insta follows. I'd have to re-check the rules to see if a twitter blue tick with 30k+ followers would be eligible but I'm assuming ... yes?

Keep an eye on her follower numbers. They are creeping up.

I think a lot of them will be coming to watch the car crash. Like when she had that “black eye” - followers went up a bit then too.

So many americanisms, too little time.

"Med scripts"??? Is this a subtle hint that she's acting or just that she's socially ignorant enough to think using Americanisms makes her seem well-well-travelled rather than an embarrassing affectation?

Brb, just suffixing “IBS” to my Twitter name.

Honestly, you pop to Sainsbury’s for an hour and miss a whole world of drama.

Genuinely interested in what they're paying her as opposed to what they're paying the ... you know .... ~ordinary~ folk.

Lastoftheflumps · Nov 20, 2020

She’s not famous. She’s like z list famous

She really needs to stop making herself look relevant and interesting

She’s not Madonna or Robbie ****ing Williams is she?

Why don’t the squiggles see her being booked for work like this & the reference to payment in her text and think....... maybe this is someone getting paid media money.....

Again hate to QT myself but it would be FANTASTIC to be able to put my dossier of historic screenshots somewhere proper so I could then delete them all from my computer

I think Jack just thought that rinsing stuff was a quirky gimmick, and didn’t think ~~it through~~.

FIFY. She doesn't think, full stop.
