Jack Monroe #399 Catastrophically embarrassing

[sleepingsatellite]

Blue tick squig. This is getting interesting.

Wouldn’t put it past her to be keeping track of tweets that add *’s when mentioning her by name.

I have no idea, but as a sole trader she should only have profit or loss - no dividends. I assume that she treats the Patreon and tips as her salary, and any income from public speaking etc as commission. I doubt that she is declaring the Patreon and PayPal though.

I still feel it in me bones that she's set up a new ltd company, not in her name.

I don't fully know how Twitter works. If you quote tweet someone are they notified you have done so?? Because jack seems to respond to an awful lot of tweets about her that she hasn't been tagged in. Just wondering if she spends her life searching her own name or if she gets notification???

it depends. Twitter sends a notification for every interaction your posts get, likes, quote tweets and retweets. It also lets you control the notifications you see. So you can choose to see everything, or you can lock it down to one of several levels so you could, for instance only see

1. interactions from people who have confirmed their email address
2. interactions from people who follow you
3. interactions from people who you follow

Interactions outside of your notifications settings are still there, they're just not in your face. I suspect she has her notifications locked down so she only sees them from people she follows, but I also suspect that she goes looking for the other stuff, because she's addicted to twitter and trapped in a spiral of needing attention but hating any negative attention but needing attention but hating any negative attention.

Oh tender one, how do I break it to you? It wasn’t just a roast dinner, it was Christmas dinner!

 

[Knit one Pearl one]

Yes, and if she gets called out for buying a house she can use the "I was desperately saving every penny so SB and I could have a forever home" excuse and her worshippers will praise her for being such a good person.

"And I can't afford the running costs. Send cashos."

She's just retweeted this

She is utterly, utterly addicted to the sympathy and the praise, isn't she? It's really sad tbh.

 

[Witchfinder Sargeant]

I still feel it in me bones that she's set up a new ltd company, not in her name.

She's not listed as a director of any active companies on Companies House, so she's either put herself as a director under a false name (which is illegal, don't do this), or she's done something astonishingly stupid and put her own company and therefore all her earnings into someone else's control.

You mean when you resigned in a strop, changed your mind but they'd already bitten your hand off at the chance to get rid of you?

I WAS CAST OUT LIKE A VICTORIAN ORPHAN WOE IS ME TINY VICTIM

Everything that happens to her that's bad is a direct result of her being such a gaping mizzock.

July 19 2022, Jack’s own post (that @Ooointitot is referring to above -putting it in as attachments don’t come over from quote tweets)

Vogue 2021, her own byline: rug of chances and circumstances, hunger, poverty and endless aching cold

“Ten years later I would (STILL) be writing about it” Yet here you are, Jack. In hyperbolic overwrought increasingly nonsensical language still going…

I kept the full exchange below for the time stamp. Thank(space)Y’all to @Sideboard Bob for capturing the original. On July 23 (four days after her tweet about being “cast out”)

So not just “cast out”, but the rug “pulled out from under her” and not solely into “poverty and endless, aching cold”, but into “the bleak and perpetual darkness”.

I’m a frau in possession of err… a “carefully woven carpet of verbosity”, but truly, words utterly fail me when it comes to her language around (me me me) poverty. It’s laughable ridiculous, but also truly appalling. It serves no-one other than Jack. And it’s served her very well up ‘til very recently.

ETA She is so VERY OBJECTIONABLE

I really don't think a teacher at an English grammer school would tell a pupil they were only good for flipping burgers, that's such an American expression.

To be fair I got told I belong in St.Crispins (mental health hospital) by a teacher once. I was under CAMHS at the time too lol. So teachers being awful isn’t impossible but you never know with Jack as she has a problem with the truth.

I’m a frau in possession of a carefully woven carpet of verbosity and endlessly achingly erudite to boot (see what I did there) but truly, words utterly fail me when it comes to her language around (me me me) poverty. It’s laughable ridiculous, but also truly appalling. It serves no-one other than Jack.

She uses words like herbs. Indiscriminately.

 

[LadyGarden]

She's dropped around 70 followers since I started looking at the follower count site.

I suspect the awakening of some non-GC blue ticks blew a gust of wind at her house of cards.

Jack, you will be the architect of your own destruction with your lies, flying monkeys and dirty deletes. You are truly doing God's work, bless you.

Hope so cause this one made me laugh

Argh, that pebble thing irks me. She always has to act like she already knows everything.

That's why she couldn't admit the Georgia cookbook thing.

Cherie Blair instead?

I’m going for Smaug. He has it all, just need to make his voice a bit more Ann Widdecombe.

 

[People-huv-tae-know]

Pretty please can I add my faves to the Crime Squad? If they're not here already- still dashing between threads catching up in a mini-grunk.
(Although I do actually really like most fictional crime shows an indecent amount.)

Love Gordon Jackson

Jack's agent once publicly tweeted her asking Jack to call her. We speculated that Jack had been avoiding the agent's calls. I can't remember when it was but definitely since 2020 and the receipts are on here.

 

[SpudYouHate]

I just saw this on Facebook and want to add two thoughts.
1. If SBs dad was so incredibly supportive then why were random friends buying him shoes only after they were “rubbing sores onto his feet”
2. If she’s never missed a rent payment then why was she “facing eviction” until someone stepped in and paid it.

poverty porn. Pure fiction reeled out for CEOs at dinners at soho house.

I don't believe she's done any of these things. If so, what the HELL happened to make her into the horrible person we know and love today?
Aside from none of it adding up, none of it adds up. Makes me both sad for the person she COULD have been, and angry at her extreme manipulation techniques.

 

[House of Carbonara]

Still got a copy of that, to my shame. Still, it’s not as bad s veganish which is absolute shiiiiiiite and features Jack in a jumpsuit.

I bought that for my sister - to my eternal shame...

Yes, I could see a teacher making a snidey dig like that but it's the frequency with which it happens to Jack that makes me suspicious. My bloody parents used to nip my head about ending up in the biscuit factory but I haven't based an entire career around whining about it.

ETA: Needless to say I had the last laugh and did not end up in the biscuit factory. duck YOU PARENTS.

 

[threeSMEGfridges]

FYI - no episodes of The Bill for about 20 years but I do believe re-runs are available on some channel somewhere.


Ooo yes! She told a squig that she had sent them a DM and they publicly replied they were done. I'd love to know what happened there!

Oh I hope this was screen shot!

 

[Menopausal Stormtrooper]

I hate to break it to you all, but I'm beginning to think that the pancake recipe isn't really imminent.

Today being the day it is, I thought I'd just leave this here

Spoiler: HM pancake recipe
