In perfect antithesis to her dry AF toast of the Gobi Desert, her buns are wet and greasy. Of course she’s eaten lots already like a greedy goblin.

Yeah, I’ll pass thanks Jack.

They are greasy as duck 🤢. How can she think photos like that are worthy of sharing on social media? They're quite clearly swimming in oil. She has no idea what food is supposed to look like, does she?
 
“You wouldn’t last a week with my list of responsibilities.”

One part time 10 year old, a couple of pets, some online ranting and slop creation? Give me a break. People who actually have a huge amount of responsibilities tend to just get on with it, they certainly don’t have the time to endlessly tweet about how very extremely busy they are.

I'm curious. What does 'handing in' entail?
Is it literally just pressing 'send' or does it involve security guards, a convoy of armour plated vehicles and helicopter tracking?

I also wonder, does it go to a copy editing phase and then back to her for final changes? Orrrrrr is it just published as it is? Either way, glad she can now focus on her political prisoner / state of the nation manifesto!

Morning live are getting right up her niche at the moment, hardly any difference between expensive and cheap cans of food, del Monte peaches anyone?

That was an interesting, or should I say timely, segment. And I see they are asking people to send in pictures and food production people to contact them if they have any information. This will be one thing that Jack will hope does not trend on twitter.

What she said there is absolutely infuriating.. She can pretty much set her own schedule, and has no more responsibility than the average person, and probably much less.

She doesn't have to get a uniform/work clothes ready, or leave early to catch a bus or train to work, she doesn't have elderly parents to care for or worry about.

Twitter is not a responsibility!

Good grief, every time I think she's getting a bit less awful, she bounces right back into smugly hard done by.

Some days she is tweeting all day until the early hours of the morning. With naps in between that 'people' take photo evidence of. That's not a person with a lot going on. Even her pets are a cat who minds his own business and a rabbit she largely ignores. It's hardly dogs and horses, animals that need a lot of input. Most of these tasks she reels off on her list of responsibilities are just normal, part of life tasks that people do without a second thought. The fact Jack has to list them all to emphasise how busy she is, only tells us she really isn't busy at all.
 
Book draft still being worked on as she is including the recipe for the prune buns she made this morning, in spite of the fact that she literally tweeted that she is not used to buckwheat flour and is still tinkering with the ratios.

Yet the recipe is going in a book that people will pay for.

A recipe she chucked together at 5am while "tinkering" with flour ratios is going in a book that people will pay for.

As a wise frau once wrote "make it make bleeping sense"

Jack's publisher, please wake up and smell the coffee she doesn't drink!

I think this every time JM pipes up like a martyr.
 
Depends on the child, but both of my kids were fine to be left alone for half an hour aged 10, he's presumably going to go to secondary school alone later this year. She could always take him running, that's what I did when my kids were small. I have a lot of pictures of two little girls sulking about getting up early to run various 5k races.
