THIS
sorry to be a broken record, she claims to have been drinking 200 units a week. They’ve just dried my Dad out in hospital after he’d been drinking 190 a week. After two he was still on Librium and having delirium. The shakes are still there 6 weeks in and he’s been left with brain damage. It isn’t just a bit of a hangover that goes after a day or two. All he wants is wine. He’s being violent towards my mum when she won’t bring it when she visits. She’s terrified of him. And this little cosplaying moron gets a guardian column out of it

IIRC (haven't seen my friend in years) she had SB but also had a partner who looked after him so did return from her maternity. Sometime later she split with Partner and had no childcare for nights. She wanted a job share I think but didn't have anyone to jobshare with then wanted days because of getting the train to work/nighttime childcare issues. None of that could be accommodated (it was hard enough for staff who had been there years to do this and Jack by all accounts had been there 5 mins before getting pregnant) anyway she threw her toy out and went off with stress for months and was trying to negotiate a return all of which I understand was embarrassing for Big D at the time. Then the woman in charge of control retired and some new fella came in and thought she was trouble and I think the ultimatum was, this is all that is on the table and she resigned then changed her mind and he didn't want her back....pretty sure she didn't get along with all her watch either...so I think it was a welcome relief....as I say it has been some time but those are the bits I remember her telling me. As for an admin job I think the salary was too low in comparison and she would still have to apply for it because I remember that caused some sort of situation as well but can't quite remember what. My friend would literally rage about this anytime it was suggested that Jack "lost her job" as she insinuated early on!

I see she's saving on electricity by only half-cooking them...

'Misshapen body' smh. Tell that to people with congenital deformities, veterans with missing limbs, those with physical disabilities, post surgery survivors, burns victims and many more. Fuck off Jackunt.Just clicked what irritated me most about this Viv tweet. Self describing as 'little' again.

Jack, you are not small, little or cute. You are a grown mid thirties woman. And your body is not misshapen as well you know, it's an fairly unremarkable looking human body. Nothing of note or interest. You aren't special, and stop fishing for compliments you saddo.
ETA I don't want my post to come across as rude, it just fucks me off when Jack appropriates something that is really challenging for people in that category. She doesn't appreciate her own rude health. She is incredibly lucky to have it. I take it personally because I'm a mum and carer to two children who do have physical issues that are both congenital and post operative and require mobility aids. There are daily challenges, I dread the day they might be singled out at school for it. What Jack is doing is deeply offensive and cruel.

So I left work, so he could live a life of moving house every year, begging me for more bread and jam, sitting in an unseated flat in clothes that were too small.

My father is an alcoholic. I've just worked out he drinks about 140 units a week. He can't go more than a few days without a drink or he becomes very nasty and belligerent. He gets the shakes, feels really unwell and will go through around 2 packs of paracetamol for the pain (hangover I've always presumed.) So there's no way Jack was drinking 200 units a week and having a jolly old time of it after one week on the dry. She can piss right off.

Also what if she was driving the train and this happened...Train driver gets me every time
Has she got the licence and done the training?
Imagine being on a train, the lights go off, you're a bit freaked out and then from the drivers cabin you hear and almighty howl 'n' claw before BANG off flies a door. Next thing she's racing about the tunnel roaring "YOU FUCKIN' WANT SOME YOU SLAAAAAG!" and bearing her Mediterranean at the train whilst the passengers sob and say prayers in the dark carriages. No, in my view she does not have the temperament for this job or most other jobs. Sorry Jack but it's a SHUT YOUR LEGS from me.

100 sausage rolls and 75 meatballs is a FCUK load of surplus/spare/leftover freezer meat that needs “using up” from a person who:
1. Wrote a book called”veganish”
2. Cannot afford food/lightbulbs etc

The 7 stages of Viv (RIP) bobble grief
1. Shock - initial paralysis at hearing the bad news
2. Denial - trying to avoid the inevitable
3. Anger - frustrated outpouring of bottled-up emotion
4. Bargaining - seeking in vain for a way out
5. Depression - final realisation of the inevitable
6. Testing - Seeking realistic solutions
7. Acceptance - that you're next. WARNED.

Happy New Year you wonderful lot!
I've been lurking on the JM threads for a while now. I disccovered her when I was on the bones of my arse back in 2012 (I tried her 9p kidney bean burger - it was DIRE)
I work with people who are in actual poverty
and her behaviour really angers me. She really has no clue. 
I wish her no harm but I really hope 2023 is the year where her constant grifting, narcissism and histrionics are exposed to the masses and she quietly and gently fucks off out of the public eye for good.
Thank you for reading and thank you all for making this biscuit loving frog laugh on the darkest of days

That was in Jan 2019 when the Guardian gave her a (paid) platform to extol the life-changing impact of not drinking alcohol for a week.
My name is Jack Monroe, and I’m an alcoholic. But now I’m recovering…
The food writer, journalist and campaigner opens up about how alcohol took over her life once fame struck. This is her mea culpa
www.theguardian.com
@streby Jack was definitely drinking alcohol during The Poverty. See the APPALLING dating profile her “friends wrote for her” (ie that she wrote herself in her very distinctive and insufferable written “voice”). Extract here, link below-it’s from Jan 2013. Also talks in Dec 2012 about being gifted wine glasses for Christmas “by a friend” and owing “her friends” loads of rounds in the pub as they’d been paying her way. All now deleted of course. (If you go to the bottom in the link you can click on other months to see those months’ posts),

HOWEVER, ALL THAT SAID, I do not for one moment believe that Jack Monroe has ever been an alcoholic, recovering or otherwise. I’m pretty sure that given her grim defensive/aggressive/rude/needy behaviour when supposedly deadly sober (DKL for eg) and all day every day online, she’s insufferably rude and aggressive and probably even more appalling when drunk.
I think she uses the “I was an alcoholic” (she’s multiple times slipped up and used the past tense) to excuse being a complete cunt (eg to Louisa and probably myriad other poor fuckers who have to deal with her IRL personally and professionally), and now uses “I’m in recovery” as a weapon/shield against any criticism of her unethical and often appalling still-ongoing behaviour and actions.
I also don’t doubt she goes to AA meetings, but only to centre and talk about herself incessantly at an audience who literally can’t get away from her.

Hello lovely Frauen!! I’ve been away for a piss and a sandwich but now I’m back, boo, I guess?
I honestly and naively thought last month that Jacks Twitter silence meant that she had finally done some soul searching, sorted herself out and decided to live a quiet life free from grifting and narc gaslighting. And that these threads would softly, gently become DEAD accordingly.
The fact that I’ve been mithering about JM here since summer 2020 and STILL clearly haven’t fully grasped how shameless she can be, merely shows that I lack the maverick brilliance and imagination to fully appreciate the flagrant grifty brazenness that is Jack. Clearly I haven’t had a wild and interesting enough life.
But seriously…SHE’S STILL FUCKING DOING IT!!!! The narc thing!! Fully exposed and still trying to brazen it out!!! Whyyyyy!!!!
