Don't feel bad or foolish. You have a kind heart. A Heart is worth more than a Jack.I'm soft though which is probably why I foolishly donated to her. I thought her lad was younger than he is though by the way she talked about him.
It seems a bad idea to be fostering when your health is as bad as her mum's is. Especially if they did take on more challenging kids.The foster situation plus an ill parent (mixed with probably a genetic propensity to some cluster-b-esque state of affairs) explains a lot about her personality I think. The constant need to be performatively unwell in one way or another because that's probably how people in her household got attention...

No doubt she will be on threads once it’s launchedI agree with all of the above. For me, it’s two main fronts she needs to remedy:
1. Lack of transparency
As someone with a public profile she can’t get away with the absolute nonsense responses she puts out to people’s genuine concerns. She either deems critics as EVIL TROLLS out to get her to cease inhaling oxygen or she gets on her high horse of denial. Those are her two defaults and neither is okay.
There’s no reason whatsoever that she can’t make her Patreon income public, be public about exactly how much she ‘funded’ to sue Lee Anderson and where those funds went, etc. it’s an active choice that she doesn’t and it leads to a massive level of distrust and it gives the people asking questions a very sturdy basis on which to question her.
As someone who constantly screeches about ‘all the good she does’, she doesn’t prove it. Ever. And if you’re in what I’d argue is a charitable position/held as a do-gooder, you have an obligation to be transparent.
2.Inability to apologise or go towards any form of self-improvement
She seems fundamentally incapable of admitting when she’s done wrong, owning up to mistakes and undertaking to fix her ways going forward. She’s lost followers and Patreon supporters because of her own behaviour and you’d think that would make her want to be more contrite and try to make it up to the people who support or have supported her, whether that be financially or otherwise. For someone constantly talking about engaging in the very hard work of a 12-step programme and seeking improvement in that regard, she seems so blind to how she isn’t applying those principles more generally to her life. Not tomyself but I have personal experience of addiction and these programmes and the onus is so strongly placed on you to look inward and recognise in no uncertain terms that you have harmed people through your behaviour and you should seek to make amends where possible and at the very least apologise AND recognise your own impact on others. It’s founded on honesty above all else, yet she is a deeply dishonest and shady person so deep into her own narcissism that she’s so averse to anything that doesn’t paint her as a perfect human being.
I realise none of these things are really tangible steps or a list of things she could tick off, but from my observations these are the sort of general areas that really strike me as problematic and I genuinely do wish she would look inward once in a while instead of projecting everything on to imagined evil forces that don’t exist.
(Also I looked for her on BlueSky but I don’t think she’s there!)
Yep, and John fully admits he may have sub-consciously had Hamish Blair's poem in mind when he wrote it. I wonder if Jack would ever admit to such a thing?Fraus mentioning JCC upthread are on the money. That 'poem' is a really shit approximation of Evidently Chickentown, which Jack probably knows from the closing credits of an episode of the Sopranos a million years ago.
One of the replies to Greenbelt has an oven-ready thread title: An insult to Christ’s teachingsTrifle defender has replied to that Greenbelt Statement tweet https://giphy.com/P7JmDW7IkB7TW
That video of guest cackling at Cooper's obvious distress at having his space invaded by Content boils my piss.That's what I meant when I said that we all have different reasons why we're here.
I'm not a pet person but I can't bear cruelty to animals and that hadn't even occurred to me.
Your reasoning is definitely more thorough than mine.
About 18-24 months in HMP Styal.I'm interested to hear your personal points of view about what guest would have to do to satisfy you that she is truly sorry so she could seek some sort of redemption.
I was bang into Molly until she started promoting crowdfunders for other internet beggars and admitted she was lying about being an immigrant then I was fumin ha.She divided opinion on here, but let me tell you, I’m pleased for Molly’s work. Look at the amount of new people here who say it was Molly who sent them here.
we haven’t had new members for ages and ages, so this is wonderful to see.
Veterans of these threads were sensitive because she lifted so much from here, but look at how it’s helped so many others see the light. Some who actually gave Jack money, which I’m quite sure SB never got the benefit of.
agreed. She needs to do better outside of grifting and being given a platform by idiots like Greenbelt to do so. She’s not worthy of their platform. She never will be cos she’s a self centred numpty.The Greenbelt statement says “she deserves a chance to do better”. FFS - she’s been on the scam for years. YEARS. What about the Kickstarter, for example? The endless begging. The compulsive lying about every damn thing. She’s had more than enough chances to do better. And yet I’ve never heard anything resembling contrition, or even sincerity, from her. She’s not sorry.
Did she sound contrite in that Guardian article? Or did she just sound like it was all a bit of a giggle? After all, she’s been getting away with it for years, aided and abetted by her blue tick mates and sponsors like Trussell Trust and Greenbelt, who never held her to account. Why should she change now?
