And from the same "I'm totally not a bunny boiler" category:

I need to stop looking, the cringe is too great. I'm actually starting to feel a bit bad for her.

I’ve not really thought about the bottom tweet much before, so is she implying that they’d been arguing about her house being such a cesspit of rusty old shite? Maybe she was trying to pressure him to move in and he was reluctant because if made him uncomfortable? 🕵🏻
If so ‘just because’ is gaslightly af, if he’s not comfortable in that environment she should give a tit about it, all speculation m’lud!

P.S I’ve always imagined her house smelling of wet feathers
 
I'm being a lazy frau but what happened when they broke up? Was there lots of tweets about this? Did she go quiet?

Edit: I had a wee look and came across this instead - an old account of hers: suspended?! Anyone got the old tea for this either?

Way too invested in this now (blame Enid Blyton Jack, I always wanted a shed and mysteries to solve like the secret 7) but is this decluttering more about trying to win Harold back? Or to prevent another cash cow Harold in the future running away because Jack’s house is a cesspit?
Really makes you think.

And also the hoovering? God, absolutely shameless. I’d be buying 3 hoovers and hoovering 3 times an hour if some old bloke came round for lunch and suggested hoovering (Jack, he did not just fancy trying out a Henry-trust me). 😬

“They took it quite well considering…that I’ll be single again in three short weeks from now”

All good though Jack. At least you don’t have to worry about having another “engagement ring photoshopped off a book cover” especially not the cover of your “best book yet”. Phew!

Also, @Jay-cloth Cow I’ve thought of a way you can stay pals with your work chum while also gathering intel. You invite her brother out ‘for tea’ with you! 🕵️‍♀️ Set up a Patreon to foot the bill, I’ll donate!

It wouldn’t surprise me! If she’s trying to hoover him back by ‘proving’ she’s changed and guilt tripping him about ‘having’ to move then that’s two birds with one stone 🤷🏻‍♀️ Very narc like, I hope he stays away from her tbh.

Hang on, how could this even happen? Do we take this to mean that Not Harold also now owns eleventy billion plates, bowls and sundry items “most of it from charity shops” so that part of Not Harold’s kitchen now also resembles the Under Butler’s storeroom at the Dowager’s country pile?

I wonder if Not Harold also decided to get exactly matching inexplicable multiples of large unsightly snake charmer baskets to put on his top kitchen shelf? You know, in case he ever needs to hide from the Nazis in one like Marion in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

She can’t even prove her bread properly judging by those repulsive looking bricks she was clutching to her torso in that pic a few threads back, so I don’t think she’s got a ❄ ball’s chance in hell of ‘proving’ anything else. Other than proving irrefutably on a daily basis that she’s an absolute wally, that is.
 
Looking forward to Molly’s blog post. I’d be interested to know, though, how much difference do you think it will make? Asking because I rejoined Twitter after a brief break to follow all the Jack comments and it seems like people who are on her side are willing to overlook absolutely everything that doesn’t match up to the St Jack of the Poors they’ve created in their heads. To give an obvious example of this: All the people who retweeted her 10-year anniversary essay with a caption like “THIS is what poverty looks like today!!” even though she SPECIFICALLY STATES “I’M NOT POOR” AT THE OUTSET OF SAID ESSAY YOU GORMLESS NINNIES.

I’m thinking AM’s post would be a useful resource for any journalist willing to cover this story, but if they were planning on doing that they probably would’ve done it by now, right?

Marms photoshopped Jack's normal face over the daft smol pixie one. I know - incredibly convincing.

Ah I see.

Seems that Jack made the unusual choice to edit her nose to look bigger.

Fellow Secret Seven frau here! Also, very Jack appropriate as there are THREE thrilling mysteries herein.

1 The Mystery of What Happened to the Teemill Cash

2. The Mystery of What Happened in Dordrecht (JCC has read that one already and knows how it ends)

3. The Just How Much Does She Rake In Via Patreon Mystery

Yes I sometimes wonder what impact Molly's blog post will make. I think we forget Jack is a quite obscure figure. I guarantee if I were to ask 20 or 30 people I know if they had heard of her they would all say no. She lives on a quite small corner of twitter. She can style herself as a 'TV gob' but that is very optimistic. 'Lorraine' for a couple of completely forgettable times? Breakfast news twice a year?
I really hope Molly's blog will make potential and existing donors to the workshy greedy whinger think twice, that will be a good result, but I think a story taken up by journalists might be optimistic. Jack simply is not relevant enough.
