The bowler type hat Jack is giving me clockwork orange vibes.
Possibly an unpopular opinion but I think that ship/armadillo/woodlouse tattoo is her actual worst

Two guest adjacent words in the NYT today!

I thought she looked like a Just 17 model from 1992
Wash your mouth out with (boiled down) soap! Those models were HOT.

The bath of pennies being an absolute fuck you to the trolls... There was probably about 50 quids worth in there.

Even if it was £2 coins, it's hardly enough for a month's rent on the bungamansion.
But wasn’t it revealed that it wasn’t full, and she was under a blanket with a few on top?

My opinion at the time and still is that Shattenstone and Jake colluded over that article. There are too many bits and pieces that don’t ring true (why would Shattenstone or the driver know to contact LJC, why would an entire crew of people wait hours for tit features rather than just rescheduling the interview, AS IF they knew her in the Thai restaurant and let her eat for free, get to fuck!, etc.).

There are too many convenient boxes ticked; she has bad mentals and her recovery is still a concern for everyone, as demonstrated by the oversleeping chaos, she is ok enough to sit in a pub and drink tea though, such an AA success story, where did the money go? She spent it on sideboards! Oh, makes sense, poor depressed and booze-addled Jack, she gets comped grub because she’s such a national treasure, etc.

They were both too smug after publication; she was confident it painted her in a good light, he was confident his ethics were sound and that she wouldn’t come after him for doing a hatchet job.

Shattenstone was convinced he had the full measure of Jack. We know if he wrote that article in good faith, he had the wool pulled over his eyes, I don’t believe that as a seasoned journo and insider at the Graun that he thought that at all. He knows she’s a malingerer and a grifter.

This was an attempt to wipe the slate clean regarding her behaviour and likely cooked up between the Graun, Adrian and guest. It was an attempt for everyone to save face. They still think they’ve got away with it if this crapola is up for an award.

(sorry if this was already covered, I couldn't find it)
such an adventurous order too. Chinese and Indonesian starters and a “big curry” in a Thai restaurant. All Asian cuisine is interchangeable.

that is my favourite bit of the article. “This lady is manic, talking quickly in a nasal voice and doing things impulsively! She also knows fuck all about Thai food!”

They’re fucking KNIVES you simpering, infantile twat.

I don’t understand why it’s not called gingering, though

What is a voile, anyway? Wikipedia says "When used as curtain material, voile is similar to net curtains"... are there any ways in which it's not similar? And, if not, why does she not just say "net curtains"? And why does she wang on about them so often?

Whatever the answer, I bet she's got a storage unit full of the fucking things.

Yeah the MUA posted a video that showed it was actually a big brown sponge and just a few pennies on top of it. They CGI'd the pennies in. Video also showed she wasn't naked and Jack, um, 'wiping her nose'.
