She’s going to be livid at all the attention Elliot Page is getting today, no doubt clawing at the floor and howling why she didn’t get number one spot on the Daily Mail showbiz page when she decided she was transgender.

Good on Elliot, such a brave decision to make with the world watching too. Which is what Jack thinks in her head happens every time she makes an announcement, but literally the only people watching her are us, Brenda and Stuart.

I, Slopbot

I do love a good Jack "Before this appears in a crappy tabloid" huff quote like she can't even go down the shops without getting papped.

I am grateful for the positive response to Slopbot, all these recipes sound incredible! Once I had the idea it was the work of a moment I had to teach myself code from scratch over the course of a few hours and because I am autistic it worked perfectly first time frankly I am still amazed that it worked (and yes @Switchstreetz the drawing is both mine and deliberately terrible yet strangely charming).

@Vroo Angel Delight, Creme Egg and banoffee tart sounds too reasonable, it could definitely be improved by some anchoïade.

While I was away someone has not gone viral and a rocket scientist Frau has casually developed a bot. If that is not a Jackstoposition.

How long before Slopbot is full of ads and a tip jar rattles after every creation of new slop!

I make ahead a lot of our Christmas day food now because otherwise I tend to serve lunch and go to bed and sleep a painkiller/fatigue induced coma for the rest of the day. I have a chronic illness and my husband is usually coming off shift on Christmas morning. But defo not "defrosted scraps" - Jack being jack goodness knows what they will eat (still shudder over the Finnish liver pudding thing) but it is possible to freeze loads ahead of time and have a yummy traditional christmas dinner if you're working or chronically ill etc.
Oh no, I hope I didn't upset you and I am most sorry if I did! I didn't want my post to make me sound like an evil Christmas dinner dictator. It's always this time of year when I do thank the heavens that we have a freezer as it's an absolute lifesaver in the run up to Christmas. I think I've overdosed on reading tweets about foil containers and freezers over the past week so, when I saw that tweet, I was just irked by Jack's narrative (well, I suppose my perception of such!) and the thought of a three-course Christmas meal made with all sorts. I am sure your cooking is fantastic and didn't want to suggest that anyone who freezes in advance would be waking up to Jack style slop!

@traumatised sideboard please take a bow with slopbot! It reminds me of Letitia Cropley from the Vicar of Dibley, famously dubbed the 'Queen of Cordon Bleugh'! 😂 I've just read the adjective 'griftily' and am now having a good chuckle to myself.

The difference being that Elliot is an extraordinary actor able to show the emotions of the characters they play. I cannot think of anything Jack is extraordinary good at

@traumatised sideboard: I have eye wets, bottom wets and I'm still trying to find where my lung landed when I hooted it up. Thank(space)you very Matt much Matt for Slopbot - a ray of sunshine in an otherwise dreary day! I only wish (with @blurstoftimes) I could share it as widely as it deserves.

Oh. Jack's found the 'they work for you've website'
With the super secret information about voting records.

Someone do something to distract her.
She'll be totally distracted when she discovers slopbot! She’ll spontaneously combust 🤯
can you imagine her giving evidence in court? They created an app to steal my recipes! 😂🤣
