Your not

your not the guy thatching the cottage across the Lane from me are you. They’re having a hell of a day, pouring and gale force winds and the tarps blown off.
Thankfully not - but I feel for those guys. Thatching in this weather is nigh on impossible (it’s very specialised as well, I’m definitely not an expert by any means!). We’ve been going round in circles with our tarps today. Secure one, another blows a corner...I feel like I’m in a fucking Escher painting

She wanted Mulberry to gift her a new bag, didn't she?
Unicorn cuffs and mermaid cowl she was knitting? She barely managed the Shreddies blanket! We get it, you bought the shiny self-striping synthetic eyelash fringe yarn.

"Wholesome" is the latest word to have its meaning totally twisted by the internet. It used to just mean, like, tomato soup with brown bread or The Waltons or family games of rounders, now it's cat memes, robots, and Jack Monroe? Leave the English language alone, you bastards.

Ha, that shit was already past its peak popularity when I started knitting circa 2010, so I wouldn't be surprised if Jack discovered it in 2017.

Those tweets from 2017 are truly shocking - the level of lying and dishonesty is much more blatant and shameless. Also petty but she used 'y'all' way too much.

For someone who purports to be totes kerazy and unpredictable bcos puppy with hyperactivity she is remarkably consistent in being a whinging, grifting little toad. A fucking decade of it. Change the record, Jack.

Slightly off-piste but I was bingeing Drag Race UK this week and IMO it’s so weird that for years she’s been doing the middle-class-mummy live-laugh-love writing for the Express act when she’s a young woman, and totally ignoring this contemporary stuff. She just doesn’t even mention these huge cultural phenomena which uplift and give voice to her supposed community. There were two non-binary contestants this year (one of whom was a walking personality disorder IMO but nonetheless the question of pronouns/gender etc was handled pretty nicely). Why just no mention at all from her? I’m not saying she needs to watch EVERYTHING GAY BECAUSE HOMOGENEITY or anything, there’s just, like, no engagement at all with positive stories?

I mean I get that she’s BUSY writing the book that is literally six months late (*hyperventilates*) but she’s got enough time to tweet shite and manage her vast empire of sock accounts. Almost like she doesn’t want anything to do with a show which promotes acceptance and understanding because she can’t peddle her ridiculous “I am oppressed as a tattooed lesbian” tale.

Working out what she’s saying and what she means...and what the truth is...who fucking knows!?

I’m going to have to look back and see if I can find it in the way back machine but if anyone remembers when one of the card companies had UKwide (maybe even bigger?) issues and loads of card machines went down, I swear she’d tweeted about her card being declined and it being triggering etc which fair enough, but she also said people were judging her - as if it wasn’t happening to most of the UK at that point.

Edited because I’m incoherent today

She is extremely selective as to who she directs her ire at in real life.
