That sock account disappearing has ended me. Send doggos. Or potatoes. Just not dire ones.

Yeah, not nearly as many as there used to be though, pal.

Here are your Guardian bylines again. You’ve had fewer in 2016-2022 combined than you had in 2015 or in 2014 alone. And they love you over there! (Or at least they used to. Oopsie! )

2022 3 (so far)
2021 1
2020 4
2019 7
2018 3
2017 2
2016 5 (two of these are her putting the ‘I’ in ‘I, Daniel Blake’)
2015 26
2014 55
2013 24 (starting in late July)

Anyway, Go well, and have a lovely evening. x

I know there may have been a glitch in likes (hasn’t done anything to mine) but the appalling singing is in Jack’s. Even with pity likes (which I suspect 95% were) & hard of hearing pensioners being a bit confused (the other 5% I suspect) it didn’t even get 0.0002% likes from her followers. There’s some maths for you Jack.

I bet Jack is sad she can’t use her big platform to claim that hours of gentle, behind-the-scenes personal toil was behind this initiative…
Because working behind the scenes, as a power broker of sorts, requires power. Which Jack don't got. Jack got noise, only. Not reason. Not authority. Not coordinated effort. Nothing but noise.

So when Jack is quiet, we know she isn't doing a thing.

She's going to try and brazen all this out isn't she? That's what I'm taking from the defiance in that bio. Wouldn’t be surprised if she's going to try and reveal ~something~ in terms of the VBI, as a gotcha to everyone and to try and show that she is very important and does important fings. It'll be shit and hilarious

I’m assuming she’s pretty up to date on the grunk and this alert from @Tin Can Crook is exactly why she’s back and titting around with her bio to (ironically) make her look even more of a tit.

Hi Jack when are you going to publish the pancake recipe? Also, can we please have a lovely picture of doggo after the groomers yesterday, perhaps standing in front of some more of your awards? Finally, it might be nice if you provided that Patreon update you promised your Patrons in the first week of September.

Ooh! Can you please also send us a sign of what those things on the dinner plate between the whitish stuff and the brown stuff are? Perhaps call your next performative pov blog post ‘Roast Potatoes’, ‘Baby Carrots’, ‘Overcooked Vegan Sausages’ or whatever they are. We’ll know.

Thank(space)you for all that you do! Love you loads! XOXO Gossip Girl Vali Dolls xxxxx

I actually saw someone mention the VBI on the Reddit Australia page today We have enough of our own dumb financial fuckery going on without adding Jack's nonsense to it!

I’m guessing we’ll get a LIVING A LIFE BEYIND MY WILDEST DREAMS quickly followed by LEAVE ME ALONE before the day is out.

Excited.

(TOOT TOOT)
Please let this be true. Leave Me Alone Jack is my favourite. This sounds like the perfect combination. TOOT FUCKING TOOT.

Fuck I'd forgotten the Tom Waits bog song. Now I can laugh at it all over again. Time flies in the Jackiverse.

It would make my day if Chris mate casually destroys the whole thing in one polite tweet.

79.1K followers so not squigging.

This immediately made me think of a Jack recipe

Remember she said it would take her the weekend?

Here’s something Which? did a few years ago. It was the first article on a Google search I did now that came up so there’s bound to be loads more like this. As the real analysts here have shown, they have adjusted the costs accounting for inflation. Wonder if our SMOL pixie will do the same?

Mashed cauliflower- only a monster would do this instead of potato

I bet he didn't like that Big Dave married out.
Papu himself married out! To a local baptist lady!
I’ve moved on from thinking he’s sheriff fat man, now he’s Pops from League of Gentlemen

The "white bread" I'd argue with a little.. I'm assuming they meant fresh from bakery? but your standard packet sliced did a weird thing where it sat years around 42p for branded, 22p for supermarket own, then practically doubled overnight after a "wheat crisis" (maybe 2008?) and never went down again. So a "vbi" will always be difficult in practice.

Is Jack (she of the multiple CCJs) a budget/inflation expert like her Mum is a master at cooking roasties?

Fuck me all this expertise in one family. Doesn't seem fair to the rest of us.
