Jack Monroe #353 Jack Monroe campaigns for Jack Monroe not to be in poverty

Reminder that trolley.co.uk is actually at this moment providing real time price data and comparison on supermarket goods. It also has a price history for each item and allows you to set an alert for when the price of certain items drops. But they can never compete against a scribbly bit of paper with some cat hair on it.

What’s really sad is that Trolley needs funding to stay open. They had a crowd funder to help with costs but only hit 41% of their costs. And yet squigs are pissing their pants with excitement with the prospect of funding a fowever home for Jack because she deserves it so much.

Even worse, they tweeted Jack at the time of the Venezuelan Bumpersticker Index offering to share their data

I also think this might be really painful for Nigella ~ hear me out ~ bearing in mind previous experience x

Random opinion nobody asked for - much as the canal are disappointed in Big Suze, her recipes actually work. I don’t see an issue with having her books because they’re useful. Jack’s spread misinformation to vulnerable people. Hence why they make good kindling.

Has any heard this. It’s a talk Jack gave and she sings to the poor fuckers. It’s completely bizarre. singing starts at about 37 mins. I didn’t listen to any of the rest tbh

I was hungry and thirsty, were you there? - Greenbelt

For years, Jack Monroe has been campaigning for those so poor in our society that they are voiceless and invisible. Then came the Grenfell Tower fire and suddenly the country woke up to what we’re doing with the poorest in our society. As one of the real life stories that inspired Ken Loach to...

That's genuinely scary. I also skipped to the end where she goes offstage to hug an adoring fan who's sobbing at getting to speak to Jack. Whoever mentioned American televangelists was spot on.

Whichever tender one sets up the new thread, this was the most popular thread title suggestion.

That happened during the making of the music video she was in

Another day another beloved boiler suit

Plating havoc? Is that one of her recipes?

Well over a month = since approximately two-three weeks after the constant inappropriate lifting in the bathroom multiple times a day.

Looking back at it, I think she did have some sort of real mark below her eye

She almost certainly did have a black eye (under the sparkly make up). She posted a video on Instagram Stories to show it was real (she washed and wiped the bruise with a fluffy white towel).

Or maybe she had Amber Heard's bruise kit.

Help. I am actually listening to Jack "sing". As if a threatening migraine wasn't enough. It. Is. TERRIBLE.

I managed three seconds. One of my anxiety dreams is being made to sing in front of people and listening to it playing out in real life made me feel a bit clammy.

She only spends fifteen minutes a day on Twitter though, she said so. (In the Lesbonic Magazine article - we probably need to revisit that!)

Could be near enough a fact.

She spends the other 23 hours 45 minutes on Twitter as other people.

She always has to pretend to be ~different~ no one in the world, including Jack, is doing bicep curls while taking a tit or boiling soap instead of just using the soap.

I really love that idea of creating a family cookbook as an heirloom. I wish I'd thought of that when my granny was still alive. Alas, and I say this with love, I don't think future generations deserve my mothers cooking passed on.

I get it, I loved my mum so much but there's a reason I started doing the family meals at 12. I do have a Québecan cookbook my mum got when she married in
1958.
PS Jack smells

Was that hospital picture today?

Even with a "black eye" she can't help eye bleeping herself can she?

I think this shows some level of double standards from Jack: it's not ok to be overweight if you're eating chicken nuggets and processed/ready meals. it is ok to be overweight if you're eating buttery rich expensive, indulgent food.

I may be wrong, it's just an observation.

Quoting myself (sort of) like a twit, but her loathing of the poors quite often reveals itself.

“Price is determined partly to put off people who seek to abuse it” So it’s just people with low incomes (for whom it is cost prohibitive) that abuse prescription drugs?

Then people who have plenty of coin and DGAF about money (and for whom it’s not cost prohibitive) can abuse it as much as they like? Except those types of people would never abuse prescription drugs like those poor people would if only they could afford it, right Jack Monroe?

ETA “Incredibly serious about being responsible”. She’s kidding, right? When?! That might be the biggest whopper of all the lies she’s ever told

I read photography as pornography and was like "She DID NOT!!" That would have been an entirely different rabbit hole to go down...

Boys in scrubs? She doesn't even put her nails near scrubs

Also whatever she’s paying for meds to ‘keep her functional’ - maybe she should ask for her money back?
