She reminds me of an old acquaintance who once said to me during a meal out with friends that her and her husband had £30 each a week that covered ALL ‘fun‘ stuff I.e a takeaways, nights out, clothes, hair cuts, gifts, days out with the kids etc. Maybe I’m privileged but we lived in a decent area at the time- her and her husband both worked, had a mortgage, I thought that was a ludicrously small amount of money to have per week for everything that isn’t a bill. I can blow a tenner stopping for a cheeky Costa coffee and a cake so £30 a week seemed madness 🤪

Anyways- long story short, at a later point she told us all that her and her husband were saving for a deposit on a bigger house (they wanted an extra bedroom but didn’t want to increase their mortgage when they moved), and were saving £1000 a month over 2 and a half years so that they could achieve this.

Meanwhile she whinged constantly that she was skint and couldn’t afford stuff, and was dreadful at paying her way. I was fuming because a few times I’d looked the other way when she’d blatantly not paid her share of something because I felt bad and didn’t want to highlight that she was on a really tight budget.

Meanwhile she’d been saving a grand a bloody month !!!

I wasn't aware of this (another squig just brought it up). Nothing has changed in nearly two years!

The thing that really irks me about the Patreon is that people are still subscribing even though they can see this. I mean, WTF?
Charities are losing money regularly as people review their outgoings in response to the cost of living crisis and Jack still manages to grift at an unbelievable level, shamelessly. Never once acknowledging that she’s taking money for nothing.

For the fraus who are unsure about coffee-ing alone, it is one of my favourite indulgences. Tea, peanut butter blondie and my book. The music in the place I’m in is excellent, it’s just a lovely way to spend an hour on a Sunday.
i work permanently at home, so it’s always nice to get out for a little while. I’d wholeheartedly encourage it xxView attachment 1388231 q

Ooh, is that Denby? Fancy!
 
I really do wonder why she has done absolutely duck all for patreon for what must be years now. People are so easily pleased she could chuck out any old thing. She needs to look upon it as a work revenue stream and put in a bit of effort.
Still sticks in my craw that Nigella drew attention to it, and 100s of people subscribed just so she could work on the Boot Index. Which she hasn't produced either. Wasn't it in Scotland she said it was nearly ready? But now dropped from twitter. I don't think she has done one single thing towards it. Let alone weekly meetings with the ONS.
 
Hello Frauen und Herren, curiousity got the better of me the other day and I decided to take a look at these threads (despite not being at all familiar with Jack) because they're always trending. I've been engrossed ever since, you're all hilarious. I'm briefly delurking to say that I've started involuntarily (in my head) referring to the deep-throated grunt my dog does when he stretches out to sleep as grunking, so thanks for that 🤣

Think her taking from followers is worse then having a gym membership you never use.
 
Think things might be hotting up … a larger account ( not blue tick ) is engaging in conversation methinks the new critical account may just stay around. Hope Her Ladyship is having a cosy afternoon nap… cos the penny dreadfuls mentals will be out in force when she sees this lot. (Hope I’ve done it right, first Twitter screenshot)

How soon before there is a 'I have disclosed my heartbreak and wobbly mental health for days now. My sobriety is hanging by a thread. That people on this hellsite choose to attack me now shows exactly what kind of people they are. Please leave me alone' type post.

Oh yeah, we’re going to get the full history again!

I have to admit that I found it strange that she walked for 45 minutes to Tesco late at night to buy flowers! This is the same person who was apparently stalked and cosplays being generally vulnerable. Nothing makes sense. 🤔
