She’s dressed like the red carpet. Which is appropriate since Jack walks all over her.

Forgive my ignorance, what causes this? Is it a subconscious need to be more like that other person? I actually knew someone once who did this, but I just assumed it was a them thing, but now I'm wondering! They were lovely, and quite eccentric. So the unexpected things they did I just assumed was an eccentricity specific to them. As I say they were a joy so it was almost a nice thing. Funny what you notice but don't appreciate the significance of.
I know, I look like Geetbo’s avatar lately, I’m well aware people judge me on it, without my online distraction bubble being burst.
I think centre-parting hair curl Jack looks slightly more normal than stunt hair-sister wife Jack did. Imagine being reminded of the time you clipped in impossibly long nylon fake hair every time you walked past your 3 books in Waterstones

Is the canal busking outside? All the ones on the right side of the bridge for starters......?!Seems guest might be going to the Edinburgh Fringe this year, I’m not remotely interested in looking it up (sorry, just being honest) but a more interested or festival-keen Frau might? (The Stand New Town Theatre?)
Hold up. American here, have been fishing on remote lake without cell service. You lot are s'posed to pledge allegiance to Charlie in front of your teevees?
You forgot that she sleeps on the sofa
The age of consent in UK is 16, in her state it was 18, she was 17 at the time. Also it’s illegal in uk to pay for sex with someone under 18.
must be my elasticated waistband causing me to misread other people’s posts then .Yes, I said that I get bad vibes from her because in every single photo I’ve seen of her so far, every other person looks happy and she’s stood there looking fuming. There was no implication whatsoever that she’s therefore dodgy/aggressive/hetrophobic because she doesn’t smile in pictures.
I love Ariel 
I think I'm going to buy her book.
That her pillowcases are similar to my kitchen blind was a bit distracting to me
Obviously we share good taste.

Jack is a lying bleep and a nasty piece of tit.

Obviously we share good taste.I'm someone with huge esteem/body issues - I'd probably pass psychological tests for surgery on the NHS, let's just say that - and, even though Ariel is far more beautiful and has a better body than I could ever hope to have, she's right. Self-love is hard and something I'm not sure I'll ever manage without some sort of validation. I also have a good friend who... 
let's just say has made a living in various guises due to her looks yet she is still insecure, especially as she's getting older. Like Ariel, she knows what she's talking about how the printed image often isn't the reality, and has tried so hard to assure me I'm fine, sweet, cute, etc, but my experiences tell me otherwise.

I think Linda has got Jacks number and their arrangement will be mutually beneficial.
Thank you for finishing the job I started and couldn't finish because nobody let me have my own way because we aren't far enough along for my nomination. Danke, airborne crocodile.
I don’t really understand what you are saying. If you want to respond to my comment and disagree with me then please by all means do so, I’m more than happy to hear an alternative opinion, but I don’t really appreciate you making an indirect post claiming I said/implied something that I categorically haven’t.
Omg that‘s a point, we need to alert @FunnyFuneral !
FF! Jack will be near your bridge again in August! Be on guard!
THE ENDI am currently at my biggest and am bursting out of my large clothes. At least I’m not a grifting bleep and have no need for stunt hair
Still Grunking (but approaching real time slowly!)... If that had even occurred to her, she wouldn't have said she was going to wrote 4 blog posts a week this year. Especially not until she had caught up... Which she (or somebody) fessed up the in that October Patreon post. She's a bleeping con artist, liar, all-round thieving tit, and I hope karma jumps all over her.I think it's exactly that. Changing the tiers means some people would tier down or stop paying entirely. Posting anexcuseupdate would remind subscribers she exists and make some of them leave. Even sending out the rewards could lead to disaster for her if too many people decide they don't want this stuff after all. Staying silent on Patreon - grifty as it is - is probably her only option at this point. I don't know why 400 people are happy sending out money every month for duck all in return, but it seems many of them are.
I can easily imagine the Patreon being started in good faith, and even - if I'm kind - that the initial falling behind on rewards really was the result of mental ouchies/a heavy workload one month. But it's okay, she can catch up! Suddenly it's next month, now she's two months behind. After a few months one thing is clear to her - nobody has complained yet, at least not publically. And by now she'd have to send out enough stuff that it'd be a bit of a slog just to get it all prepared, never mind the attendant costs. But it's okay, because the Patreons haven't complained. By this point there's zero chance of her ever making up the missing months, but the grift is working anyway so who cares? Jack certainly doesn't!
In a way Nigella was the worst thing that could have happened, if we assume Jack had good intentions here. A fuckload of money drops into her Paypal but now even more stuff needs to be sent out (or not!) and with a wider audience it's more likely that one of these new paypigs will complain when they get hee-haw in return, possibly even in public. But she could always have closed/paused the Patreon, or asked Nigella not to send all these people her way. Maybe a quick mention that she's got some problems fulfilling rewards and offering refunds if anyone isn't content paying just to support her painstaking behind the scenes work that there's never any evidence of. So while I am willing to allow that Jack might not have intended it to end up like this, she hasn't made any move to fix things or to limit the growth of the problem. She obviously doesn't care about these people, she just wants the free money every month but also doesn't want to pubically admit that this is free money and that the tiers exist solely to pay her rent and fund her lifestyle.
A poster said they disliked someone in the photo based purely on what she was wearing.
Other posters had a discussion about Linda always looking aggressive and not smiling.
other posters made a comment about the lady in blues T-shirt being possibly cultural appropriation, and pointed out her outfit had an elastic waistband.
A poster suggested that Arial’s partner was “ punching”
A poster suggesting that Linda would criticise working class people who didn’t support pride/miners strike as being homophobic - I read this as suggesting Linda is hetrophobic
I did not quote your post so I don’t know why you feel I have targeted you
I'm wearing elasticated trousers. I have to fold myself a bit over the top of those to achieve peak (relative) comfort. The elastic is doing a lot of heavy lifting today. Though I'll not be offended if someone takes the piss. I'm wearing elastic bloody clothes what do I expectI am currently at my biggest and am bursting out of my large clothes. At least I’m not a grifting bleep and have no need for stunt hair
I find the body dysmorphia etc discussion very interesting. It's not about how you look (relative to others) at all. It's about how you compare with how you think you should look. I've been prettier, and skinnier, and uglier, at various times. I'm below average for me currently but have more confidence now than when I looked at my best. It goes to show that self image isn't just a problem for people who aren't what society would describe as very attractive. It can happen just as easily for people who are conforming to that image too, and everyone in between, if they can't see it or have some other view of perfection. I guess it's the same as being able to be depressed with an objectively "good life" whilst someone with a rubbish life from general perspectives can be happy. Such an individualised thing.
I’ve mentioned on here before Mr Lazarus is a snooker fan - I don’t mind it, so I sometimes watch too.
At the final tonight, when Brecel was giving his winner speech, he said to Mark Selby something like ‘I probably shouldn’t be saying this here, but stay strong Mark & Vikki, I know there’s been a lot said online’
I can’t find anything - does anyone know what’s up? Nitter’s gone and I can’t search for things on Twitter as i don’t have an account.

Is it really so horrible of me to hope someone in the audience asks why she hasn’t paused her Parreon yet and she slops herself?
Didn’t think it would be fight night among the canal
