Jack Monroe #321 It's just that Jack wasn't especially cool or well liked

If the police visit was in relation to something malicious I’m wondering why she went public about it. To show she's outwitted the person who reported? I’m sure the police would have said “Leave it, mate!”

There’s that expression about Twitter not being real life until it’s real life.
You see a lot of people like Jack who take on a persona. Everything is played up for attention. We know, without ever meeting her, that she’s nothing like her online persona. Even recent events and appearances have felt like a performance (she saved the poors with a viral Tweet and everyone clapped!) Perhaps this police visit is a bit of real life poking through.

I’m at the too tired to sleep state so feel free to roll eyes and move on.

 

[FrumpyCat]

Oh my Christ Jack. If this is true (it isn’t) you would bet your last penny your beloved union would have something to say about it.
I am just imagining an internal interview where I ask them to name our cleaning team And then the feedback on why they failed. She’s been on the j1g.

The compulsive lying to go bigger and better is getting worse!

Jack really is bleeping deranged.

Can't be long before the crash. Should feel sorry for her but I don't.

Jack's mum, presumably asking if the police know who the caller was:

Reading that If assume the caller was Jack's mum, and she is just checking the police won't grass her up.

I stopped following Jacks threads a while back after days of being bombarded by her followers for comparing her David Walliams cancel attempt to her Jamie cancel attempt. It was funny at the time but her minions really know how to keep something going…..

Im so pleased to see she hasn’t changed one bit and that the threads are still hilarious. She really is the gift that keeps on giving!

I think this explains the incessant tweeting for the last however many months it's been (84 years ). Her career was non-existent after DKL and the awful, nightmare collabs that followed. She was quiet on socials during the time she claims to have been in rehab and I don't think even one follower noticed her absence. The stupid Asda viral thing has really given her a second (third? sixth?) wind and now she won't shut up for fear of being utterly irrelevant again. Truly eye-roll inducing stuff.

I think that’s it. She’s trying last gasp attempts to get that media cashos. Slagging off THAT MAN worked before and got he DKL, but not this time. Slagging off Asda worker last time, but not for Sainsbury’s. And if/when the expose happens, then the patreon cashos will dry up and then she’s unable to save for deposit/pay for the forever home. It must be hard seeing your grift fall away like a slow train crash. You know it’s coming but you can’t do anything to stop it.

Pull it around in a week? Mother8!g hell I am going to blow a gasket here.

I’m going to say this is all for us and she is spouting shite. I’m off to read the DSM-V for a real interpretation of MH.

I’m mithering but as a MH prof who has also experienced a fair few ups and downs with the old wellbeing, it’s possible, if you know yourself well and have been working on your MH, so the intensity and frequency of your blips are reducing or you have a solid foundation to have a wobble and then come back within a week or few days. However none of those seem to apply to Jack. It’s taking all of my willpower not to diagnose a stranger on the internet because of *whiny voice* ethics.

Exactly, if this is true, the kind of gotcha behaviour she is displaying would likely antagonise any real troll. Especially the vague threat that they'll be identified soon.

Unless she made the report to get the police round and thinks it will scare some of her more common critics, but she doesn't want to admit she called them.

If it's true. She probably saw a police car drive by and made a whole fantasy around it

Let this armchair mitherer devoid of qualifications and unbound by pesky ethics assist:

Spoiler: Armchair psychologist’s diagnostic report

Definite:

• Narcissistic Personality Disorder
• Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder
• ADHD
• Cyclothymia
• Some variety of anxiety disorder

Possible:

• Histrionic Personality Disorder
• Autism


Editing to add mithering on my own mithering:

The HPD symptoms could possibly be explained by her other personality disorders. Her social ineptitude could be caused by a combination of profound self-absorption and social anxiety, rather than inherent autism. She’s certainly not officially diagnosed as having autism because her stories of how she was assessed make zero sense.

Cyclothymia to me seems a good explanation of her mood swings from depressed to manic, they are not intense enough to be bipolar I.

Totally more than likely. She’d have been given the opportunity to buy copies at something like £1 a copy (price would depend on cost price of printing, but usually at a loss). The publisher also might do this as a partial - say they overprinted - the book was still selling but it didn’t sell as well as they envisaged, they’d reduce their stockholding whilst the book was still current.
For example, say they printed 20,000 copies initially (fools) and had sold 5,000 but had 15,000 copies left but only selling 100 or less a month. That’s a lot of months advance stock they have. They’d want to reduce that down without flooding the market with cheap copies.

I’ll see if I can find anything out from my publishing friends.

She was still tweeting early this morning.

Firstly, she thinks we should “build loads of …housing”. Obviously that won’t work Jack unless you put the infrastructure in place to support said housing. Moron levels off the scale.

We also had another insight into Keto Jack. When you grunk hun, please stay away from cauli rice. Everyone knows what eating cauli rice implies. Stop being a twit.

ETA- given she thinks she can turn her (in her opinion) MDD around in a week by eating fish, grains and veg, she shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near a diabetic’s diet.

 

[StatusWoe]

The police story has left me totally confused. She seems so angry about it and is convinced the person's a troll, but (if true) it sounds as if they acted out of concern rather than trolling. So what's really going on?

Jesus she would hate me, I phone literally no one. I ring my mum because she worries and occasionally my sister but unless it's to make an appointment. I don't call anyone. I never really have. Texting all the way for me.

Same. Sometimes when friends phone my mobile I'll let it ring and then text to say ''did you just call?''

I just hope it’s not space squig. He’s suffered enough

Did we ever discover what was in space squig's parcel?

 

[PowerliftingOtter]

So for the police to do a welfare check, they need her address, did the squig have that? Can you really report on behalf of someone without them knowing?

It 100% wouldn’t have been a welfare check. These only happen if there is concern expressed about immediate risk to self (or others) and police would insist on taking the details and contact number of the reporter. It usually happens when a service or friend/family member hasn’t been able to reach someone who is at potential risk. In my area, police are so overstretched that they have limited capacity to complete welfare checks so will ask for loads of information and push back if possible. I imagine it’s the same everywhere! So I suspect that either it’s just complete nonsense OR the police did rock up at her house but for another issue and she is trying to fabricate a reason for this in case they were spotted entering or leaving her crappy bungalow.

 

[Into_the_tunnel]

Sorry for double post. Last night was so odd. It was though she was on stage, answering questions on all aspects of her life and career and was just making up answers as though none of it mattered.

You cannot turn around bad MH in a week, particularly through eating certain things.

You are not going to be able to change Sainsburys’ employment policies.

You were not maliciously trolled into a welfare check.

You aren’t going to have a huge impact at Unite and with a select group of Labour MPs

If you have been able to arrange all this then contacting people is a mere wrinkle () (phoning isn’t really necessary anymore) and you don’t need to write a 4-tweet thread about sobriety where you add not-so subtle messages to us via numbers and give away potentially false details that upset your followers.

Crack on Jack. Do your dance. Are the mirrors showing you what you want to see?

We are either in for a big day or a big dino nap.

Coops deployed early doors today.

Actually jack, the real socialist answer is to build a ton of social housing and infrastructure (or a mass buy back scheme - v difficult without distorting the market) and move away from this country's obsession with social housing and look to other countries. (You can thank me for this on your grunk later jack when your socialist friends point out the flaws in your plan)

But she wants that Thatcherite dream of her own home.

Seriously though "pay more" " charge less" "build more private homes". No wonder she only got 4.5 GCSEs with that level of critical thinking.

 

[Fruitjack]

I'd love to see someone challenge the apprentice wage.

Yes. but we advertise really good apprenticeships with graduate training and futures that young people won’t apply for because they earn more in their current part time job at McDonald’s. (They’re not working for us, we’re the education provider)

I thought a police welfare check was immediate if there are children in the house.

 

[Cack Conroe]

The problem with the house-building craze is that it’s destroying farmland and potential farmland. This will further compromise our ability to feed ourselves as a country, and surely raise food prices. Not to mention the effect all the building has on wildlife.

The population isn’t increasing that much, I can’t see the need for hundreds of thousands of hideous new builds. It’s just landowner and property developer greed that is driving this. I think the “need” for more buildings is propaganda.

It would be helpful for there to be a multiple-properties tax to free up empty holiday homes, and make it harder to be a professional landlord like Jack’s Marxist-Leninist(!) dad.

The ironic thing is Jack has said she won’t live in a new build. So this housing she is bleating on about is for the proletariat. She wants a lovely Victorian terrace overlooking the sea*.

*even though she has no idea on the actual upkeep costs on a house like that.

 

[ChickenPorridge]

I thought a police welfare check was immediate if there are children in the house.

Was just thinking this and came here to say it. I thought if someone calls up for a welfare check on someone it's usually an immediate thing, isn't it? She's saying somebody reported threats that were made a while ago and that she had decided not to report? So cops came out to check for..what exactly? If she was ok after receiving threats a few weeks/months later?

ETA, maybe she's been grunking the Snapshot Eye threads, I think someone actually did phone in a welfare check on him a few weeks back because he'd been saying concerning things on a live or something!

 

[Yel]

So many of today's problems comes down to the cost of housing. Jack doesnt have the slightest clue, it's all build more houses, print more money! She's barely capable of reductive snipping from the sidelines.



All this "good news for homeowners houses up 10% this year!" Is insanity.

Wasn't she happy that the last Mrs J owned property?

This build more houses without any thought for community leads to housing developments dumped wherever without much thought to how they will function. Which doesn't solve anything.

I take it Mr Tesco isn't answering his phone?
