Proved I wasn't just 'over-reacting'.
Having being medicated for 'Hyperactivity' as a child and my very old Dr finally digitising his patient records making them easily searchable was my absolute saving.Attempting to get a diagnosis some way or another myself at the moment, after a very frustrating and ultimately failed attempt a few years ago (the local mental health provisions are bordering on offensive). The way Jack treats ADHD as some sort of adorable frivolous issue really does my head in, I barely feel like an adult some days. It's reassuring to see people DO eventually get help as an adult though.
I made carrot soup for tea (with onions, lentils, cumin, chilli and milk).
I think she’s spent more time thinking of the name than that non- recipe.
She would remember the name of one of her old recipes and the story attached. The ingredients, not so much.I'm fairly sure at this point, someone could write out one of her own recipes from an old book and she wouldn't notice
In an alternate universe where our JM is a comic book character and the marvel comics "jack monroe" is an influencer...This is the preview for her GA, in the last 2 days she’s been in two articles, 1 of them is about a made up JMConsidering we’re on a thread a day very clearly tattle is not coming up in these!

I lie awake at night, horrified about how much material we're going to have for next year's sloppies, based on just the last 6 weeks.I know I'm way too early but just wanted to put it out there in case I forget. I was thinking for this years Sloppies we could invite Jack via her long suffering agent to nominate her Top 5 funniest Tattle Alerts of 2021 and we could vote on the overall winner. She's such a great sport with a wonderful sense of humour who loves a laugh at herself so I think she might go for it.
That would be a great title for the next thread!Same slop, different book.
But then she'd have to post it to them - and we already know the front door of the agent is about as passable as the Morannon/Black Gate of Mordor, never mind the days in the desolation of the Dead Marshes from Just-Behind-the-Tennis-Club to The-Post-Office.
I was anorexic in my 20s and still, occasionally, get triggered byi it now. I don’t set alarms to eat, either I eat or I don't . AND if anorexic and going through that particular trauma, you are NOT going to remind yourself to eat because you don’t actually WANT to. Unless youve had a significant amount of therapy you are not going to obey an eating alarm. She is the bigggest, most vile, stupid twat that EVER walked on this earth. Why cant she just shut the fuck up? She is not a therapist, she is not an expert.
No onion or garlic?The recipe for (bon)(f)ire soup
300g carrots
750ml veg stock
50g ginger
2tbsp Tom puree
Yum, orange coloured gingery slop.
And don’t forget, the post office called her and requested she refrained from posting parcels. There are just too many obstacles!But then she'd have to post it to them - and we already know the front door of the agent is about as passable as the Morannon/Black Gate of Mordor, never mind the days in the desolation of the Dead Marshes from Just-Behind-the-Tennis-Club to The-Post-Office.
This would be, I fear, a Quest Too Far.
I’m on the waiting list for an ADHD assessment next month and it’s people (let’s be honest, middle class women) like Jack who claim to have ADHD that have put me off from getting tested for so long because I’m worried about looking like I’m trying to make excuses for character flaws or laziness, rather than the fact that I can really struggle with executive functions when I have a professional job and need to carry on the facade that I’m doing fine. If I do get diagnosed I don’t imagine I’ll share the information with many people, I just want some help to improve my focus and organisation because the stress of not being able to focus when you really want to can be unbearable. It’s not cute, it’s not quirky, it’s holding me back and it’s very detrimental to my mental healthQuelle surprise she's pulling out the ADHD excuse again. She mentioned it on the podcast actually because of course she fucking did. Said she was diagnosed with SEVERE adult ADHD which is now treated with medication when she remembers to take it. Maybe I'm being stupid but since she can apparently set an alarm to remind her to eat, could she not just set a daily alarm to take her tablets?
Wait, what am I thinking? That would be A SENSIBLE SOLUTION. Give me strength.
When I was really young, back in the day where almost everywhere had their local post office, our local post office woman was the type of person who sighed over literally every task... I do sometimes wonder if when that branch closed she relocated to Southend...And don’t forget, the post office called her and requested she refrained from posting parcels. There are just too many obstacles!
Yikes, we have a Troll?shit, I missed this off my "bullies" post earlier.
the bullies who are just so vile (a very overused word imo) that she came and joined in for hours! the bullies that are mostly left-leaning, intelligent young-ish women who used to admire her, who she thought she could win round in the end.
also, there was a very intelligent sounding squiggle replying to the snitch-tag tweet earlier who made some very good points to the snitch-tagger. unfortunately, then a Known Troll showed up
anyway, it's thunderclap time! whoo hoo!
Oh, it's a conundrum isn't it? What a pickle.But then she'd have to post it to them - and we already know the front door of the agent is about as passable as the Morannon/Black Gate of Mordor, never mind the days in the desolation of the Dead Marshes from Just-Behind-the-Tennis-Club to The-Post-Office.
