"Confessional beggar" ouch! That book sounds so cringe. ED does get on my nerves a lot but I still think there's so much snobbery and judgement around therapy especially in the British press. Then again, ED does beat people over the head with it. There needs to be a better balance.
That’s a good point. I think there should be more of a distinction between “therapy speak”, and actual meaningful therapy. Therapy speak seems to over-use certain buzzwords, leaving the real meaning watered down, and missing a chance to have meaningful discussions."Confessional beggar" ouch! That book sounds so cringe.

That poor nanny.Pandora had another baby.. did anyone even know she was pregnant?
Yeah she's posted a few bump photos on her stories. I do like that she's quite lowkey on IG about being pregnant. I'm sure she'll put that down to her aversion to InstagramPandora had another baby.. did anyone even know she was pregnant?
See, I just don't think this is necessary, and this is why people think Tattle is a witch-fest. Making fun of someone for their looks is just always horrible. Dolly doesn't have control over what image they use to promote the event, or her book, and come on, it is clearly her. Wouldn't you want a reasonable image of yourself on promotional materials?!This pic I just don't understand. Aren't you mortified when you look absolutely nothing like this at all?!!

absolutely spot on ! And I think she’s looks lovely the press photo is by a popular photographer who edits her photos in a particular way which might be why she looks different xSee, I just don't think this is necessary, and this is why people think Tattle is a witch-fest.

I watched the live stream of this event last night, at a time when I'm feeling particularly down, and it gave me a real boost. There's a reason why Dolly is so successful- because she's got that undefinable thing, that X factor of relatability, even though she's yes, posh and privileged. She is clearly a lovely, empathetic, sensitive, smart person. I really enjoyed the conversation between her and Katherine, and the audience seemed to be having a great time too. There are so many issues we're all going through, I know this thread is a laugh and yes the literary London circle can be extremely clique-y, but sometimes the stuff they put out there really helps people and gives them a lift when they're feeling low.
At least she's doing it. At least she's putting herself out there and if she's monetising her experiences and views on the world, I say, fair play to her. Yes she's coming from a position of privilege, we all know that, but she's still talented, and has a real ability to connect with women. That is rare.
I wonder how you'd feel if people were shitting all over your looks when you've had several number one bestsellers and a column, tv show, etc. But I'm guessing you haven't had any of those things.
Her newsletter this week was a total Tattle take downShe owns a property too! Just doesn’t want to sell it at market price.
She does have a thread too. Generally, I enjoy her writing but she’s definitely increased the digs about tattle/trolling () since her thread was started.
Competitive. Cf Clemmie Hooper, late of this parish.How did she find this thread obvs Googles herself

I was just thinking about whether any of the LLs are on Tattle Do we think they’re competitive with each other or all friends?
Yeah people’s looks are a fine line but Dolly posts thirst traps and edited eye bleeping selfies so she’s fair game. I don’t think it’s appropriate to comment when celebs are just living their life and don’t do that- Dolly’s PERSONA is her edited looks. Her whole image is this sixties doe eyed manic pixie dream girl and Tattle’s job is to call out the inaccuracies we’re presented. We take advice in the advice column from the worldly muse, not the bellowing Sloane in a bubble which is what she really isSee, I just don't think this is necessary, and this is why people think Tattle is a witch-fest.
