Jameela and Josie backing away

Is it really the case that JJ has been removing tweets about Mermaids - if she has deleted ALL tweets prior to June 2020 it could be the case that she just didn't tweet anything about them until now?

There is one from 2019; within the film clip the youth references Jameela messaging regarding - but it has been deleted - but this is 2019?

And I don't think JL has been deleting tweets?

Maybe they have the same PR company?

It's weird. Why would people be suddenly removing any reference to mermaids? What is going on?

Danielle says so. That’s kind of the whole point.

When I was a child it was well known that if someone lied I would throw a fit. This was especially true if the lie was bloody obvious ie if my sister nicked the last chocolate bar from the sweetie tin and told mum to her face in front of me that I took it, or if another sibling said something stupid like ‘your name isn’t serenity, it’s Bob’ (I was preschool aged I have to admit). They used to gang up and see how angry I could get (my adorable siblings).

Apparently it was called The Rage and had the effect of the Tasmanian Devil. ‘You’re lying - I know you are lying - we both know you are lying - how can you look me on the face and lie like that??????’

I get the same thing these days with this sort of thing.

Jameela has her autobiography coming out soon. Was supposed to be this year but pushed back to next year due to covid. I'd imagine HarperCollins have told her to delete in anticipation of her inevitable shitty PR in 2021.

I had never heard of Danielle before this thread.

So I clicked on their website and maybe I am totally totally blind but I can see zero pictures of Danielle looking like a woman. In every single photo they are dressed like a gender conforming man.

www.daniellemuscato.com/ and then click on bio and photos.

With this I just go, how can people not see this? How can people say of yes she's a woman. It really is the emporers new clothes.

What a pile of cack. I’m not 7 years of age to get a ‘BFF band’. So much focus on gender... so much focus... none on sex or domestic violence. I’m amazed they bothered with (actual, real) disabilities for a change.

@JamieLeeCurtains I know, how full of yourself do you have to be to do that. We're not Following each other so it's not like any Tweets of mine would show up on her feed, afaik.

Still reading thread & don't use twitter, just click the links here. Has anyone asked J why she's deleted those tweets?

Josie Long is so woke I'm surprised she can function in the real world. I used to be a fan but this constant navel gazing while ignoring the ingrained oppression of women we see and live with everyday just pissed me right off.

Just had a nosey JJ's insta has cleared off any mermaids reference. Just the odd trans post

Or a hypnotist sparkly horse.

I tend to think of the whole thing as a sparkly trojan horse. Get taken in by the sparkles, let it in through the gates, then watch all hell break forth from its bowels.

Sparkles = we are whatever we feel like! We should have the right to identify as such! Gender fluidity! Acceptance and love! Hurrah!

Hell = YES I am 'biologically' a middle aged man but I identify as a 9 year old girl that likes boys. Age fluidity! It's how I feel and if I as a 9 year old girl can have sexual feelings so can those who are biologically 9! Give children their right to sexual freedom!

.

Christ almighty, imagine googling yourself or searching for mentions like that. As the Dowager Countess Lady Violet might say, the sheer misplaced self-importance, the vanity, the idleness!

That’s interesting @EileenAlanna

I find Josie Long v irritating and am ambivalent when it comes to JJ. I have no interest in what she has to say.

@ItsLateHumpty she wasn't tagged so must have been looking for mentions of herself. (It was my Tweet)

I don't even care about JJ anymore. She just follows the mood and lives in a bit of a privileged fantasy world where she embellishes stories significantly to suit her purposes, IMO.

JL was really digging her heels in around the JKR stuff very recently so I would be extremely surprised if there had been any real change of heart.

nauticant aaaaarrrrgggghhh!

What with this wibble and today's ridiculously over-hammy Archers monologue featuring Adam, I must hie me over to Times Radio asap.

Was going to say Josie long on radio 4 when she does short cuts and appears on the infinite monkey cage. Uuuuurrrrgggh. Her "I'm so twee and lovable" thing has driven me insane for a long time but I really lost the plot when she started cropping up on radio 4.

Just for you JoysOfString: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000k9bc from 16:40

That’s why when the kid comes off that can of worms it will be a million tones more spectacular. Or maybe I mean tin of fireworks?

Is Mermaids about to do a Kids Company?

I don't think so. The thing that ended KC was running out of money, that was the moment when it became clear they did almost nothing beyond acting as a money firehose. Mermaids is very well funded and while that continues, the existential threat will be a big children and safeguarding scandal but I don't think a growing awareness that things are awry will do it.
