And she intends to fill every inch with stuff
Didn't her pro bono lawyer block her on twitter? And his cousin Martin Lewis stop tagging her into tweets? What a tangle web.
Interesting theory but I think if it were Action Fraud, she'd be looking to address the unnaccounted Teemill donations. I think that's primarily why people have been reporting to them?
It could be Trading Standards, a few people on Twitter have said they've reported her Patreon to them. It's possible TS have made contact.
My heart goes out to you and all the stuff you are handling with (what sounds like) grace and grit. All Jack had to do was turn off Patreon, post a very short explanation: Can't do it right now. All of which would have taken less effort and focus than buying MATCHING bleeping FURNITURE and SHOPPING LIKE A bleeping TROPHY WIFE. But I forgot, the hired help left her in the lurch. Hired help. How do you tell the world that you're a basic Karen without telling the world that you're a basic Karen?
She can't refund them cos she has spunked all the money away on tat, and she would struggle to get credit as she has a very recent ccj
Remember when twixes were bigger?!
Why are people so angry that a man who can cook has the job? Seriously, that man is kind of annoying, I get it. But the level of hate is a bit incredible.
Everybody supporting Jackers seems to assume that all other chefs are used to throwing money around, using rare ingredients, etc. When in reality, restaurants are run on an incredibly thin margin and chefs understand the concept of "stock-taking" pretty well. Also, many cuisines have classic dishes that are not rich-people foods, dishes that are part of a chef's repertoire. Lastly, most chefs aren't making boatloads of money---or if they are, there was a long period when they were working long hours for peanuts.
So what if THAT MAN tosses some cilantro into a dish? Someone was complaining about THAT MAN and cilantro--lots of people do have it lying around because it is an integral part of their cultural menu and it isn't that bleeping expensive to begin with. Not every dish a chef makes on a TV program is going to work for you--your cupboard, your wallet, whatever. But some will. And a trained chef can help you to understand how to adapt the ingredients you do have to make a tasty dish--especially if you get the majority of your food from a foodbank and aren't certain what will be on the menu from week to week.
What got me about the three tin tender is (aside from the god-awful nature of it) the can of Coke--kind of expensive, soda isn't a typical food bank option. When my family was poor, no soda because it was a waste of money, calories. Belly wash.
Ugh, I should have just quit when I saw THAT MAN boosting Her Griftiness. I've caught up now but I didn't enjoy it. Just when I was beginning to forgive him for his crimes against Swedish food, he's gone and spoiled it all. Mom was a huge disappointment, but I honestly believe she didn't know what a scammer Jack is. What excuse is there for JO?
so grumpy now.
AND I have no bleeping Twix in the house!

s)Rinsing spaghetti-os would have gotten me killed by my 4th grade classmates. You don't duck with Spaghetti-Os. They are perfect in their native state. So the cacio e pepe, aside from the culturally appropriative parts, would have been a total, uneaten fail.
Nope. Twix and inhale that new puppy smell. Hmmmm. Maybe chew on his cute wittle toe-sies. Or maybe not.I read that as "eat a Twix and half a puppy"
And just exactly WHEN was this money donated to the Southend charity she mentions?

We have that lil toast manShe’s fond of jellycat too
And, how much stuff?
£22 Jellycat amuseable toast soft toy
The size of that bleeping table
Is that a blue button backed sofa she's sat on?
And the sheer quantity of stuff! Those Argos/IKEA bookcases are 42cm a piece wide with 7 shelves including the top, so that's 23.52m or 77 feet of shelf, and it's crammed!
Also I like how she's pretending to be hard at work while sitting 2 feet away from dozens of undelivered kickstarter copies of bootstrap cook. Twot.
ETA she really, really doesn't get it does she? You can't just say "yeah there was £200 and here's the donation". That's not what FUNDRAISING TRANSPARENCY is.Holy crap

There, that wasn't so hard was it? So why the duck has she been so snippy and defensive about it when she could have just been transparent from the start?Holy crap

Now do the 30p Lee tin rattle...
Just to clarify: Jack never said she was transitioning to a man, she said she was NB from the start. She never used male pronouns. Here's her coming out post: https://web.archive.org/web/2015103...girl-called-jack-i-have-something-to-tell-you It also features Jack cracking a phone screen with the sheer strength of her bare hands.
(Incidentally, as I've just noticed for the first time, that 2015 post thanks Spaniel Friend for 10 years of friendship!)
As for how long it all lasted and how serious she was about it...well, if you look at the last blog entry she posted immediately prior to coming out - as in, literally the same day - it features a close-up photo of her breasts in a sports bra. She was back to telling journalists to call her she/her three weeks after coming out. I'm sure we can all draw our own conclusions...
£11k profit in the first month and then less than £300 profit for the next six months? She must think we are bleeping stupid.
This all stinks of reputation management and a desperate attempt to avoid an investigation by Action Fraud.

Oh my mistake, thanks for the link!
It looks rancid
