I’m dozens of pages behind, but wanted to make two points: (1) Self-diagnosis of ASD is at least a valid discussion — access to formal diagnosis is a privilege and there are endless reasons someone might be overlooked early in life. People can get nasty and gatekeeping about it with people who are most likely autistic (Jack’s still a bleep, tho, and the tweet she liked was too simplistic); (2) The #ActuallyAutistic hashtag is used by the autistic community to find each other — it’s in response to how almost everything you hear about autism comes from people who are not autistic. I’ve never seen the hashtag in the bio of someone with a large following like Jack’s. I don’t think she understood what it meant.

Perhaps she has a lawyerbot picture and is confused that it is an actual lawyer in much the same way she fell for that sponsorbot claptrap.

Gotta love 'single mum' Jack. She forgot to add entire mid term breaks while she fucks off to LJC's. I'd put money on the boy being much happier on those narc-free days anyway, so all good.

Surrogacy doesn't work like that. It's giving birth and then handing over the baby to somebody else forever with no legal right to them even knowing who the woman who gave birth to them is. If he even meant it, he wouldn't have been saying 'I want to have a kid for the occasional weekend and pay a massive amount of maintenance for the rest of the time whilst somebody witches about how awful single parenting is', it would have been him saying 'I want a child of my own.'


Mind you, I notice that neither appear to have been at a certain Music journalist's wedding in Brighton over the weekend. Sali was.

Thank you for the explanation. I did not know what the hashtag was either. I thought Jack was using it to advertise her autism, which she has either romanticized or used as an excuse for her behaviour since I followed her on twitter

Robot Guy is suggesting that someone who went to the pub today can’t have been following lockdown rules until now. That’s not how changing rules works, idiot.

Is he ok? Honestly from what I've seen he seems a bit simple. Not trying to be nasty but that's not rational thought. Wow.

There's been so many good thread title nominations already, Jack really has

Hey, we need this info for the Sali thread!

Robot Guy is suggesting that someone who went to the pub today can’t have been following lockdown rules until now. That’s not how changing rules works, idiot.
To be fair he wrote a whole string of tweets saying he felt it would be a bit unfair if he went to the pub today to be served by someone in a mask who might not have had a vaccine but felt they needed to work, and the re-opening feels a bit soon. He’s pretty much saying he feels uneasy returning to normal so fast when not everyone had a vaccine yet which is a fair opinion.

"You make my ovaries twitchy" just sounds so yuck. I don't like it when men tell me openly on facebook or in the street I make their dick hard/they want to put a baby inside me (not that I'm on facebook). Or when men I have interacted with would do that. Even taking into account that it can be more intimidating from phyically stronger men compared to women, it feel invasive. And though I think OJ is quite the attention bleep himself, it's weird how she brings in such a personal thing (that on the on hand he put out in the world himself) like the desire to parent to an unrelated tweet, just to make it about her ovaries.

Genenerally I don't think you need to refer to your gonades or genitals when interacting with people. "Looks nice!" would have sufficed if you wanted to compliment the haircut*.

*I know it wasn't a compliment, it was a way to burry the chaos earlier this weak.

With all those replies on her Twitter saying the same makes it so obvious she is trying to bury something. I don't do Twitter and even I can see what she is up to. She is duplicitous. (You can have that word on me Jack, look forward to seeing you use it)
Bib she probably thinks it’s an ingredient 🙄

What would she have said if a man had replied the equivalent to her I wonder?

Or if a man had said that about having his son a certain number of weekends and dodging responsibility?

ETA actually, I take that back. If anyone else, regardless of gender, had replied to her or said that about dodging weekends. She is beyond reproach and anyone else (other than blue ticks ) is pond scum.

Allegra was right, she is gauche
She's horrible. Am no OJ fan but it's clear that he's pretty desperate to enter the world of parenthood, her loud, brash and very public belittling of the whole thing is patronising and insensitive to the extreme, and she knows exactly what she is doing.

Sometimes, if I feel a little too happy for my own good, I look through her likes and then I am brought back down to Earth with a bump.

By the way Hotes, I saw that post 👀.

Lordy. I guess that explains why on 75% of weekends she’s an unforgivable bastard and then the remainder are all quiet on the Twitter front.

Imagine a baby with OJ and JM’s combined inflated senses of grandiosity, self-serving politics, and her soulless shark eyes. Kill it! Kill it with fire!
