Another day, another 🧵

Well on Twitter she snipped and she sniped and her followers went down

As usual, a (delete as appropriate) Jaccident/ convenient sudden illness happened right before her work events

But she powered through with one of her disgusting concoctions taking the credit. Recipe incoming, she threatens!

One squig recommended a litre of hot slimy onion juice and we all heaved and hooted.

Before bed she's had herself a little nighttweet

This means she's either:
A) taken a private message she sent to someone from AA, which the recipient hasn't even seen yet and splashed it all over the internet within 2 minutes of sending it
B) been texting herself on her two phones pretending to have friends.

I'll let you decide which of the equally depressing options you want to go with.

I’ve just realized she has an open GoFundMe that’s still accepting donations for the TT ‘during coronavirus’. I’m guessing that technically as coronavirus is still going, her and the Trussell Trust can keep going? Opened on her birthday in March 2020. Not a single update since or thanks to anyone for donating. Two donations this year. Do you reckon she’s forgotten about it? You know, because her admin LEFT with the password?

Love how she starts the (again, still open and receiving donations) appeal by SHOUTING at everyone. Seriously, don’t the Trussell Trust and Jack Monroe have more than enough money between them now after all that’s been flung at them in past few years? PS I know it’s common parlance, but I loathe “Feed people” as well. It’s so infantalizing and demeaning. They can “FEED” themselves FFS.

Question: does the TT get donations each month from something like this, or do they have to wait til the appeal closes? Has this been distributed? No information on that is provided. Either way, the fact it’s still open and just sitting there smacks of her cavalier attitude around ‘fundraising’ and other people’s cash.

Jack says the point of Patreon is to provide a 'stable and sustainable income for creatives' but how does she qualify as a creative? It's not a snarky question. I genuinely don't think she fits into that category. She doesn't produce any content except for tweets about hoovers and slop. Yes, she'll write an article once in a blue moon, but that's not the sort of work Patreon normally rewards. Lots of YouTubers use Patreon so they can profit from/continue to make their videos. I've seen video essays that are far better than actual TV documentaries, so they absolutely deserve the money. Jack? Still waiting for her to do something worthwhile.

P.S. The word 'heckin' should be banned.

ETA quoting myself like an idiot because just realized this was the one there was chat about in the spring, when Jenny numbers contacted the TT to ask about Teemill and this. I cannot believe it’s still open with no update on where the money went, and no thanks. The brass balls on her.
 
Just idly wondering if Jack is still doing her regular quiet work she doesn't like to talk about:
Weekly volunteering at a foodbank.
Working with prisoners and ex prisoners.
Donating food to community kitchens.
Weekly meetings with the ONS.
Helping people with their benefit applications.
Well she cant gently, softly, meet the Queen anymore so her schedule has opened up.

every word of this makes me feel sicker than the last. There is not one single supportive word in this message. Not one. Jack uses the opening words to partly centre herself in this woman’s anguish.
Empty words is all this is. She’s a selfish bleep. If she felt really low and someone sent this to her, would it help? Of course it wouldn’t.
What’s wrong with ‘I’m sorry you’re feeling like this. Times are tough but you’ll get through it. You won’t feel like this every day, I know this because I’ve felt similar at times. The rewards of staying sober are worth it. If you can, get to another meeting tomorrow; I’ve found that on shaky days the meetings mean more to me. I’ll check in with you again tomorrow. Take care and give me a call in the morning if you want to go for a coffee. Night, friend xx’
 
There is literally no reason for her to have shared what should have been a private message. I've supported a number of women in recovery and I've never felt the need to share a message publicly. The only time I have shared a message is once, with my own sponsor only, because I had no clue how to respond.
