Why does she keep banging on about the fixed term rental contract? But at points it's been a rolling contract. And she's made it quite clear that she can't afford the rent. She can't pay it for months. But always pays on time. Slagged the property off, slagged her landlady off WHO LIVES NEXT DOOR (or opposite), says the neighbours don't speak to her. Talks about being able to buy it if she could because it's her forever home. But it's not her bleeping house and that's not down to her. She's absolutely insane.

It's a malicious, mendacious contract. Funny how her friendly lawyer, who spends so much of his time on Jack's problems, never gave this important legal document the once over? To quote dear @Terrible - chinny reckon...

This stuck out to me - one of her responses to a call-out on her not providing Patreon rewards. JM referring to fulfilling her Patreon commitments as "working for free". Completely disregarding the fact that her subscribers have already paid for the work. I suppose once the money's gone then it doesn't count in JM world.

I'm a newbie frau and it seems to me this is a common tactic for Jack - she reframes things in a way where she seemingly is stating the facts but in reality she's warping the truth.

The reality is as we know you pay for tiers for things in return but by twisting it on her own terms she is gas lighting people. Her own fans. Unreal so many of them are blind to it.

God, those "can I get what I paid for whiners are the WORST!"

They do sell them on Amazon, lots of school science techs buy then as they are so cheap compared to the 'proper' balances. I've never felt there need, and yes most normal people use measuring spoons but when has that ever deterred Jack from doing something?

Indeed you can, I use them to weigh my little rescue hedgehogs. I had no idea they were drug dealer scales until my teens told me.

Right, so I was inspired by fellow fraus comments that Jack looked like The Joker. However, I've had a glass or two of vino tonight, and, well, I don't know what to tell you tender ones. I took the grinning pic and ooft. I can't stop hooting at myself, it's terrible, so I'm sharing the pile of tit coz it's end of thread fun!

It comes back to the pathological lying. She lies that much she might even forget what the actual truth is.

I think we all know that there isn't a eViL LaNdlOrD in the world that would continue to tie someone into contract where they and their property been slagged off for the whole world to see so relentlessly over a long period of time by a tenant who can or cannot afford the rent 😳. It's a ridiculous thing to keep saying.

What terrible timing that she had her first ‘suspected heart attack’ shortly after her break up with Allegra. Page one of the narc playbook.

Heart attacks, nut burgers, school places and politics.

Hi all. I know it's been a long time since I wrote on my blog. Some of my regular readers will have noticed I moved back to Southend in the summer, and have been adjusting to life outside of London...

Why has she stuck a pedometer to her chest in that pic? Makes you think.
 
Jack expects everyone to follow the Alice Tinker ( Vicar of Dibley) philosophy when commenting on her, her life, her work etc…
heard in the episode Love and Marriage when Geraldine and Alice are looking at the infamous wedding dress.

Geraldine: Can I be brutally honest?
Alice: You can be as brutally honest as you want, as long as you don’t say anything that’s nasty or critical in any way.
Gerladine: Well, working within these parameters, I love this dress.

I notice Jack’s philosophy doesn’t exactly extend to herself.

Apologies for the gratuitous clip but had to be done, I guess



I only do JM threads. I lost a family member due to corporate manslaughter/ greed. I came across Jack appearing to appoint herself as some sort of expert, when even a small amount of background reading showed she had no formal training to be speaking in the way that she was. She appeared, to me, as almost enjoying the devastation, feeding on the tragedy. I put my feelings down to grief and told myself to stop being so ungracious and that any publicity meant greater awareness. I now understand that it is possible that she profited from people donating to her due to pretending to help a situation when she had no place or real expertise to do so ( her Dad being a fireman is not expertise by proxy) and I am very angry. She cluttered up social media trying to be the big ‘I am‘ when a person I loved died, many other people died and her ‘proxy emergency service expert act’ was deeply disrespectful/ misleading - I have huge feelings about this.

I ignored Jack for quite some time ( fairly easy as she isn’t that well known in this country) but earlier this year some UK colleagues wouldn’t shut up about her. I voiced concerns and started lurking here, feeling that perhaps I was being unfair, grumpy and as one colleague suggested ‘over sensitive’. Tattle made me realise that my anger and misgivings were justified. It takes all my self discipline not to call out my colleagues or at least set their browser tabs permanently to Tattle.

I am so impressed that in between the banter, good humour etc… are a collection of people who just simply want to stop the lies and exploitation. Too an extent I think many of us recognise that Jack probably has a serious psychiatric/ personality disorder. The acolytes enable her to do harm to herself, her child, her animals and faceless, nameless individuals who, in good faith, donate to her very expensive lifestyle. She also undermines every frontline emergency worker in the country but she is never called out for it, except on here. I also believe the media who use her as a face to fit their space are equally happy to besmirch Tattle because they are culpable for creating her and encouraging the ever growing BS.

I also don’t know of any other Internet forum where right wing, left wing, GC, trans supporting people etc etc co exist without ripping each other’s eyeballs out via rusty spoons ( or perhaps am too slow to notice?). Not to mention those who devote hours to archiving, comparing, checking, politely and kindly answering questions, sometimes the same questions repeatedly without a hint of snark, superiority or malice.

Jack could learn a lot about internet behaviour here, as could others. I want Jack stopped, I also want her to get help. But as one trainer at a work event I attended said ‘ If you have the Prince or Princess in your room, you can bet that the King and Queen are at home‘ Jack will have learned some, if not all, of her behaviours, grandiose saviour complex from somewhere imho. Sorry, shutting up now
