Abandon your slop-slinging ambitions, dear heart. She was a mere nominee, the bold name above was the winner.

Nominees get one year of membership for free, winners get free lifetime.

Tbh whenever I’ve been in there (not a member cos I’m not a knob x) the ~celebs I’ve seen have all been of my parent’s generation, like comedians or actors in their 50s/60s you grew up watching on TV. There’s nothing wrong with that (although like Jack’s Patreon I wonder how many of their peers have simply forgotten to cancel that direct debit 😂) but between that & the corporate events that keep the lights on it’s vibeless and an odd place to choose to drop that sort of cash?

I do acknowledge the AA ‘birthdays’ and so does my husband but even that’s not such a big deal compared to the earlier days. I think it’s good to give yourself a pat on the back and I like to remember at least once a year how tit it was before I stopped.

The problem I have with JM doing it is if she’s putting out there she’s drinking non-alcoholic beer and karambucha (that has a percentage of alcohol) and also telling people she’s in AA, she’s giving off the wrong message about what AA is all about and what can trigger off the allergic reaction to alcohol. I know people in AA who won’t use mouthwash with alcohol in it in case it triggers the allergy. It’s really irresponsible. Plus it also makes me question why she’s telling people - it looks to me that it is solely for attention because her mixed messages about it at all is certainly not raising the correct awareness imo.

Yes, she definitely doesn't give off healthy recovery vibes at all. She also does her usual trick of leaving her words open to different interpretations, so it could be this or that depending on what she's trying to weasel out of people.
 
My husband is over 9 years sober. His anniversary is acknowledged only, but then he doesn’t attend AA anymore, so that may be a factor?

However, he refuses to drink non-alch beer etc because it would feel very risky a almost like cosplaying. I’m sure I recall him saying that his AA sponsor and groups advised against it, but I may be wrong.

Pomegranate molasses - YouTube cut off the bottom of the video! And 4 cloves, I was going to edit it more to make the text easier to read but decided my point had already been proven and I couldn’t be bothered 😂

I am actually shocked that jack’s twitter is still private! Is she getting much engagement?

I suppose we’re just ignoring the kombucha as we have the relapse stories & 0.6% ABV beers then? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Not here to police anyone else’s tit but people @ her looking for advice or looking up to her for this tit which makes her lies genuinely dangerous. Much like her cooking I suppose 🤭

AA advise against drinking non alcoholic beer or other low alcohol food or drink, its one of the primary causes of relapse. If she really is in AA, she would know they don't promote that and wouldn't tweet or encourage others to have them.
With the risk of being triangulated I work closely with AA, very dangerous for a public figure who is on her own recovery journey to promote drinking 0% drinks etc.
