Jack Monroe #407 I lost hours yesterday learning about a Jack Monroe

[Clarends]

The worst of it is that this person who clearly hasn't a clue about budgeting has been paid by newspapers to give advice about budgeting. Very sad state of journalism.

 

[binkbonk]

I can see why she would transcribe an interview. If you're writing a piece it's far easier to pull quotes from a text document where you can search easily for a word to get the exact quote than it is to go forwards and backwards through a piece of audio trying to remember when the interviewee said something.

See that would make sense, but Jack transcribes by (arthritic) hand in her moleskins so WFK

"There's nothing like the visceral experience of hearing and recording every single word, every emphasis, every heckle, and the tone of delivery and body language, for yourself in this kind of thing"

ETA can't find a screenshot of that tweet, if you google it gets picked up but since she deleted her account can't actually read it. The only reason I know it is because I quoted it earlier this year lmao

 

[Shawads]

I was in multitasking hell on my last post in the previous thread, apologies, I was walking and typing in the dark with an animal.
So I never posted the link which was kind of the point of my nonsensical post https://limegoss.com/jack-monroe-40-hours/
Apologies if it's been seen before.

 

[Valiofthedolls]

Thankyou forensic fraus I've updated the list. I will spoiler the list itself now as it's getting quite long.
We're well into house deposit territory with the discretionary spending we can think of off the top of our heads

More more more

Spoiler: Long Long Long

Studded Burberry leather jacket and Burberry Trench coat. Bought (Confirmed, like the laryngitis)

Jack Monroe #8 Grates meats, deletes tweets and when she denies it we've got the receipts.

Hey Lolly, it was Ruby Tandoh back at the start of last week: I hope jack gets a good telling off for this. I know she didn't write but she needs a word with her followers. I hope the show runners tell her to tell her followers to zip it or she's out the door. She moans about people on...

The Burberry Brit jacket was selling for about $5k-$6k new when she bought it and the Prorsum was double that. Here’s a used Brit sold recently on a legit resale site for best part of $2,000. She paid at least £4000+ for it, didn’t wear it for 5 years but did a massive beg in 2017 because she was still skint. Also bought a mulberry satchel.

Burberry trenches average cost

Diana jumper (she said was a gift)

Hatto (and poor catto). Another massive piece of furniture here that I haven’t yet managed to but it’s going to be at least £500-£1,000 going be the other stuff. Note that I’ve squigged this post to cover her internal door locking mechanisms. She of the death threats and stalkers had no such concern.

Shes such a materialistic (grifting) twit.

ETA “butter soft leather leggings” too. Not even trying to look that up. Scared I’ll end up on a watch list.

Love that Orphy B went there with the (completely fictional) Pretty Woman story Jack spouted too. Five years later.

Farrow and Ball paint colour, it's a very dark grey.

Re the Emin, I seem to remember it was in an earlier thread and found to be a limited edition print produced for the 2012 Olympics, but I could be wrong.

And as a freelance transcriber (double ) her transcribing with background noise may finally be my aneurysm!! But to be fair, I can see why she would transcribe an interview. If you're writing a piece it's far easier to pull quotes from a text document where you can search easily for a word to get the exact quote than it is to go forwards and backwards through a piece of audio trying to remember when the interviewee said something.

Same, fellow transcriber, same. Madness that she won't outsource it to Rev etc for peanuts though.

Excuse me, but WTF is with all the magnetic spice holders on the side of Le Fridge? Fine dining establishments with three Michelin stars don't have that many spices in their kitchens. That excessive display just screams "tell me you don't know anything about cooking or recipes without telling me that you don't know anything about cooking or recipes".

That picture is horrific. The spice pots have merged as one, and attached themselves to a smeg.
I imagine their form undulating and sloshing around the crappy bungalow as a mass, seeking out the next high cost household item on which to attach its / themself
each individual pot ssshlluuurrrppps all the lifeforce out of every white, silver or downpipe grey inanimate objet they 'hug' and Sentient Spicepot reanimates endlessly, marauding and whining for jack to evermore provide more of the middle class aspirational catalogue delights to be sucked up like so much brown gelatinous slop.
Now I think of it, when jack posted those thirsty sideboard pics, we were all taken aback by her clothing choices.
I realise she was wearing futuristic dystopia Sci fi clothes, hence us not understanding them.
She was trying to give us a real insight into how ravaged she is from trying to keep that beast fed every single day, and trying to save at least one soulless cotswold sideboard from the spicepot suckage.
She is A Good Person.
She doesn't want this griftlife, it's not her doing, Spicepot demands it of her.
She's trapped and tired. So tired. She grifts because she has no choice.
She didn't choose griftlife.
Griftlife chose her.

On this list of possessions, there is talk of expensive trainers bought for a running club phase. As a running Frau, I'd be highly interested to read details if anyone can point me towards the correct thread. Ta x

Itvwas when she was off to do the 20 asda shop I think? Wearing these #376 I think @Menopausal Stormtrooper

Don't they all go off after a while too? Pointless having so many if you don't use them regularly.

In the list of purchases does it include those horrendous steam punk clock leggings? Worn once.

The leggings are a tenner.
Amazon product

Thought I recognised them as an old Black Milk print but these are the closest I can find. If they are a dupe it's such an old print I know she doesn't have the attention span to track the original expensive ones down

Guys, we know she has TONNES of high end tit. Back when it was all fields around here, we used to comment on how her poverty LARPing was constantly interspersed with, like, thot shots on a new Cotswold Co sideboard or Dyson hairdryers or 5 phones, 3 laptops and a super impressive looking desktop Mac type set up. That's why we're here! Because she's funding this lifestyle on people who don't even know what Downpipe is.

Still listening to BARPOD. Nothing that would be new to us so far but it's a full potted history. She's fucked.

It's everything from Hunger Hurts 1, through to the Hopkins trial, Kickstarter, the health issues, Teemill, Patreon, all the collabs, Hunger Hurts 2.

Just mentioned Molly!

Jesse: "This is like a mega grift."

They asked to speak to Jack! She did not respond!

Now running through the 100 hour work week, contradictory tweets. Celebrity squad! FOI request to police. Katie Herzog has contacted Essex Police and awaiting a response. Now talking about Joshua Bonehill and clarifying he wasn't jailed for harassing her.

TATTLE HAS BEEN MENTIONED! THEY MENTION OUR BEAUTIFUL RECEIPTS!

THREAD 31!

Vimes Boots Index- ONS "Jack had nothing to do with this"

Tweeting terrible advice re fuel bills.

Threats to sue, transphobia right wingers. All debunked.

Katie Roche blogpost now being mentioned.

Homeless claims "living rough"/ never been homeless.

DIVA magazine debacle.

Claims of poverty but probably in top 10% of booksellers. "she's either lying or really bleeping bad with money"

Lesbian who currently dates men.

Claims to be able feed family on £20 "irresponsible and galling".

They've been talking to a frau.

UPDATE: During this episode’s production, Monroe deleted her Twitter and few of her Tweets have been archived. Our apologies.

A Recipe For Jack Monroe

You will need:

• 25 oz. of alcoholism
• COVID-19 (severe)
• A whole autism (self-diagnosed)
• Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (if available)
• 3 (or more) concussions
• 1 grandparent who immigrated (from Wales)
• Note: Add 5 tabs of testosterone for a Jacked Monroe instead.

This story, if cooked up convincingly, should get you hired by the BBC, Netflix, Hellmann’s, and Del Monte, shortly before making you an influential economist.

Just try not to look too closely at what’s inside.
