I'd like to state for the record that I wish Jack Monroe no harm and hope she enjoys a long life of deep yogic breaths.

Jack, nobody takes a close up beer bottle pic straight after the weird selfie sunglasses reflection pic, unless the whole thing is a set up. You’re as tragic as Asda’s creamy sweet potatoes.
It must have been taken pretty soon after, the light‘s still the same, plus they’re an hour ahead over there.

None of want her to come to any harm, I just want her to stop the gritting etc etc.

I couldn't care less what kind of life she has. If she's happy or miserable
She has done harm to so many people

She can go duck herself as far as I'm concerned

She clearly took a photo of that bottle of beer in preparation for that follow up tweet.
She kept up the pretence of sobriety for a long time before that Diva pdf telling everyone that actually, she wasn't. She can't really get all outraged when people spot a beer in front of her and it raises questions, it's only natural people will wonder 🤷

I caught my sober ex with a beer in his hand, half drank, in the cellar, where he’d gone to grab the Christmas decs.

He spent 20 mins trying to convince me he wasn’t drinking, that he’d found it down there.

Even when I told him to give it a shake, see if it was fresh or not - it was fresh, it made the noise, rather than being a flat, probably mouldy, 8 months old beer, he still denied it.

Then he got really angry at me for checking up on him and turned it all around on me. Nah, I wondered if he was struggling to find the stuff so went down to help, not spy.

Point is, even when caught red handed, some won’t admit it.

Like she said it's none of my business but I am not convinced she is sober! This is my own opinion and not trying to out her. I just don't believe her.

From the comments in the linked article. Imagine going to your GP and have them direct you to Jack Monroe's website! This is worse than bloody Shipman.

I've encountered, through various family members and myself, some absolutely appalling GPs and doctors over the years. I think this one is somehow the worst.

She posts on Twatter about it so she makes it everyone else’s business.

After reading that article, I’m convinced she’s not even an addict, is doing a Marla Singer and merely needed something else to wang on about that she could never be called out on because Anonymous

Whilst it’s lovely she’s cleared up the bottle issue, what that also means is that she’s also confirmed the only visible drink on the table is her own one. Presumably OH is not only tee-total but also does not actually take in any fluid at all?
The vampire connection continues to grow

From the “one week sober” article.

Did ye, aye? 50 new recipes whilst detoxing? Cool story, bro.
Absolutely shocking.

Trigger Warning. I can't do a spoiler on my phone.



I work with service users right now who are tapering down from drinking vast amounts of alcohol. They can just about function. They need to taper to show willing to access alcohol support, which they desperately want. They can't access mental health crisis support because they are drinking. It's a huge problem.

I have massive respect for my service users who are going through this. Even when we go through the same cycle again and again and it feels like groundhog day for everyone involved.

ETA I don't work in an alcohol support service. And our team don't specialise in it. But it's becoming more of a problem. As is unsupported mental health. Remember the massive heroin explosion of the late 80's/early 90's?

We arrive at 9, leave at 3 and do nothing in our holidays.

🤣🤣🤣🤣
oh god don’t even remind me of the PGCE year. An hour and a half commute, 7:15am to 6pm at school and then regularly lesson planning at night and all weekend. And then the uni wonders why so many students dropped out.
