Evening, new here although I've been watching for weeks since I picked up mention of AM on Mumsnet (not registered on there but watch). I am on Twitter and I've been pretty vocal - I'll try to remain anon but if this is in conflict with Tattle I'll de-reg. Ta

That Tanzania holding a brahn baybee thing reminded me that Stacey Dooley (remember we were talking about her about eleventy threads ago) got a load of grief for the same thing. Even mentioned on her Wikipedia page. But Jack? Crickets.

Unfortunately Jack's Wikipedia page is semi -protected due to some pronoun battles. Shame, because she could really do with a Controversies section

My poor, sweet summer child - Scottish journalists have had your number for ages. There was an article all about you and Von Von Moyes. They just didn't name you. I doubt you will get that courtesy again.

This completely passed me by (relative newbie, found my way here after seeing a couple of dissenting voices on Twitter after HH2, previous Kickstarter backer, long time follower etc).

I work in a similar industry and I’d be intrigued if someone can point me in the direction of this story please (although hazy on house rules on linking - hints I can Google in terms of titles/authors work too!)

Slop n slide

Fellow fraus, allow me to introduce myself and my origin story. I sit here with a FRAU IN REAL LIFE (FIRL) Wine has been consumed. We have been a-grunking and delving the (literal) depths of JM YT (YouTube). I discovered her a good few years back being an avid Graun reader and felt inspired by her no-BS (lol) approach to cooking and poverty. I was moved by her story. I made her soggy salad pesto (it tasted like soggy salad, it did not taste like pesto). I followed her on Twitter and was often moved by her chaoses and numerous ailments, until there were too many chaoses and ailments for any reasonable squig to truly swallow (unlike her slop, which must slide down with no resistance (see my username (sorry for brackets in brackets in brackets (wine))). I mentioned to a friend (the FIRL!) and we never discussed it again. Until recently she mentioned in passing the tattle thread. I’d long since left twitter and JM was no longer on my radar. I lurked on here for the past 2 weeks and my rage reaction to her lies was reignited. I’ve watched the stinking pile of lies and performative poverty ever since with equal revulsion and fascination. I’m here to stay. Dear Fraus, and I hope you don’t mind me referring to myself as one so early on in this journey, you are FUCKING funny, you present a welcome distraction from the shit show that is the world right now, and for that I thank (space) you. Sorry if I centred myself here, I’ve learnt from YOU KNOW WHO.

She briefly tried to deflect negativity by laughing at herself in a James Blunt stylee.. "i know I'm irritating and have to live with me 24/7"... But she has zero sense of humour so that lasted precisely one tweet

I can’t believe she is basically admitting the dog gets better food than SB. Or is she lying?

I reckon she's lying, she's just using Content to pull heartstrings. Of course her dog is so sickly, putting her bank balance in the red, and then costing her a fortune in posh homemade food. (rattle rattle)

I actually just spent forever screenshotting some of the new ones. We have over 200 now.

I didn't read all the screenshots sorry, but I imagine they've pointed out that that simply isn't enough food for one week for two people. She has just laid it out like that so it looks like loads. It isn't loads. That's meagre. She's a fraud.

Sorry, I'm really angry. I used to be so taken in by her - in fact I first appeared on this thread trying to give her benefit of the doubt but she just makes me angry now. She is a fraud through and through.

Good God, what a grunk! Still trapped in hospital lads (mainly a precaution- should be fine) and have had visitors popping in during this most splendid chaos which is lovely but you know...
I might be getting out tomorrow depending on tests but I don't know if I can leave with all THIS going on. I know NHS resources are scarce but can I keep up with the chaos when I'm back out in the wild? They need to find me a little frau ward or something because this is a lot.

Are cynical social media influencers exploiting backlash against online abuse to deflect scrutiny? – Laura Waddell

Gossip is old news. Shakespeare, in fact, was among the first to commit the word to print, his characters frequently getting the wrong end of tittle tattle to both comic and tragic outcome.

The most time she’s had away from Twitter is 6 hours for quite some time. How the hell is she fitting in 100 hr work weeks. How the hell is SB or Laurie getting the attention they deserve?

I firmly believe that endless hours on Twitter count towards the “100 hours per week”, as to Jack that time is not just spouting nonsense, being chippy and playing to the clapping seals, it’s ~activism~.

Tesco sell value soap for 15p… so 45p for 3, saving 55p.

But Tesco also sell 250ml shower gel for 30p.

She could buy one soap for hand washing, plus a shower gel, for 45p.

But Tesco also sell a litre of value shampoo for 50p.

So rather than spending 99p for 3 bars of soap and going through the slimy rigmarole of boiling them down for shower gel, she could spend 95p, a saving of 4p, and have hand soap, shower gel and shampoo proper.

But that’s not poverty cosplay enough for our am dram destitute dame.

There has to be a Netflix series surely? (although feel free to use creative license to edit out the irritatingly nasal voice Netflix!)

Is she still wanging on about "diluting" soap? YOU CAN'T DILUTE A SOLID and boiling it is a pointless waste of fuel and water, and just creates washing up.
Click to expand...
And everyone dilutes washing up liquid, it’s the entire fucking point of washing up liquid that you add a small bit to a lot of water. If she’s putting water in a bottle of anything other than the end dregs she’s going to end up using more because a load will fly out with every squirt.

Was dilute the word of the day on her toilet paper or something?
