I know, she has to overexplain EVERYTHING.

I rewatched this a few weeks ago. LFC I cringed inside out. It wasn't just the lack of charisma and god awful cooking, but she snarked at Matt at least twice. Never been invited back, eh? Makes you think.

I really think that twitter rots the brain. People can be whoever they want to be, whoever they say they are, even if it has no bearing in reality at all. We should be more aware of this by now. But apparently Jack is the last of the dragons.

nigella really discrediting herself buying this crap.
Been looking at Nigella's Twitter lately and- despite her Jack weakness- she does it EXACTLY right.
She signposts to organisations who do good for local communities, she posts actually tempting-looking recipes, and she bigs up other cooks who she likes and wants to promote. She is SO good at what she does! She's polite, respectful and never snarky.
Now that is a professional account. I am impressed!

I think Matt would have a full on nervo if they asked her back. The poor guy must have been horrified watching it all unfold.

I think the thing that I find most weird about the Jack Monroe celebrity model is how much they love other peoples trauma and misery. Coroners reports for real people, with families...a glib way to deflect criticism. Thats a report with the details of someones death, their family are likely grieving, and not a consideration of how it might feel to have someone hoarding documents with those details to flash as a twitter shield. Food poverty, an opportunity. PTSD, a label to avoid criticism. Autism, disability etc. I remember when austerity began and the deaths from starvation came in, these ghoulish hyper privileged media wannabes were delighted. When Jack was defending the Asda shilling, Jack screeching 'people will die' to deflect from criticism of herself. Even the oncologist stuff. Its weird and its ghoulish, but when the things they are adopting, byt the speed at which they solicit abuse to people for whom actually that is reality, is telling. Really telling

Just a shame she tells her followers to fund Jack I guess. Because that kind of undermines everything else.

It's because, again apologies for offence..
she's an abuser.. she'll scream high heaven she isn't but, what do abusive people do?

They look for ways to manipulate people into getting what they want. They'll adopt whatever persona, or mask, is needed to get what they want. Be it disabled, sick, LGBT, autistic etc.
Then, once they've convinced you of their lies, everyone that tells the truth is painted as the one that wrong, the one that's crazy, the one that's abusive.

So much of it is exactly Jack tactics that, if she were a man and her fans were her wife, he'd be an emotionally coercive narcissistic abuser and you'd be begging for scales to fall from fans eyes, for them to get their ducks in a row and LTB.
She's not clever, not half as clever as she thinks, she just targets the right people. Poor, lonely, autistic, LGB, non binary, single.mums etc etc.

I agree, the problem is it has spilled out into the real world. That's why things seem more hectic and polarised than ever in my opinion, social media in general is squawking away in most people's pockets and it is hard to see the truth of things, even when you know the algortihm isn't to be trusted.

If someone wants to exploit that state of affairs it's easier than ever now.

Jack is like the human form of one of those magazines they sell at supermarket checkouts "I married my sister's dead twin!" type of thing.

6ft and 17 stone? Absolute unit.


JK. It’s perfectly normal just like Jack’s height and weight.

Holy bugger of jesus
What a day to work.

Ahhh deflection.. Smells of desperation, with a hint of fear and leaves a taste of bullshit in everyone's mouths. BoGOF via my PayPal.

I know there's chaos going down again (isn't there always?). But what I fail to get my head around (after all this time) is why the hell would you rinse the sauce off the hoops? It could almost be a metaphor for her life. Self sabotage etc.

"Dealt with" fucks sake. Can these freaks hear themselves?
This is a serious question but do the police charge you for their time or has she gone private detective. Is there a bunch of men/ women in parkas, trilbys with fake moutaches or red lipstick and sunglasses following everyone around town Words is words is words.
