And why does this shit always, always happen to Mackie? If ever there’s a story, big event or serious incident happening in the Southend area then plucky Mackie is there to report or intervene. Wouldn’t be surprised if it was some kids getting carried away and that Monroe has exaggerated it beyond recognition..

She's just unlucky I guess. She always seems to be were the action is.

Apologies to Pet Shop Boys fans, this has been fizzing around my head all day...

Some foods are better off squashed
There's a blender in my hand, food's about to get noshed
You think I'm mad too unstable
Washing all the beans and buying hammocks not tables
In a train station near Southend town
Called the police there's a fight going down
Tweet it all, delete it later
To a bin shop in a Westwood gown

In Southend town a Patreon world
The Jackolytes and Tattle fraus
In a Southend town a Smeg chilled world
The Jackolytes and Tattle fraus
Tattle fraus

Too many followers, not enough blue ticks
Faces on cook books, too many receipts
If when why what how much can you donate
Need a new house can I get a Denby plate
If so, give some more
Which do you choose
A hard or soft boiled egg
(Used to lay them myself)

I wonder if she spends a lot of her 22 hour working day / 600 hour working week watching series (maybe even... the wire) hence these weird americanisms? Who tf calls kids or teens minors?


Watching the video I think she was suggesting she was relying on it as a food source, like for sustenance? This isn’t me shitting on formula at all but my midwives told me babies tend to rinse through it just as it doesn’t really have much substance, it doesn’t have the fatty bits breast milk has so they need more of it. So fuck knows how much a grown woman would have to drink to make it worthwhile?!

The other thing that perplexes me is, aren’t food bank visits capped to 3 a year? She sure has a lot of stories from those 3 visits doesn’t she.

Formula is made of cows milk and is extremely tightly regulated so not sure why it wouldn't be high fat. My 90th percentile daughter did go through a lot of it once her feeding patterns were established but we also ended up chucking a lot down the sink in those early days and weeks! Was glad to switch to whole milk when she turned one, although I'm sure she missed the sweetness 😂

I'm lost a bit here. Is she saying she saw a fight on a train and filmed it with one phone and called the police with another?!

Feels like a Shaggy song.

Jack caught them on the counter (It was beans)
Saw them hangin' on the hammock (It was beans)
She even had them in the shower (It was beans)
She even caught them on camera (It was beans)

I won’t, because unlike some I don’t like breaking the rules, but all these songs make me want to do a Twitter thread #MakeASongJack ...

Back on the mega grunka, in the BOT debarkle, my head is spinning trying to workout her con on the donations things. Can anybody explain it? 🤪

Stuff like this depresses me so much. It seems her family did what they could for Jack and she just insists on making it sound as if she was mistreated every step of the way. I could be wrong, and families are complex, but why change the narrative?

Changing (twisting) the narrative is what she does
