Polycule falls apart

I expect people remember that Heather Herbert (charged in relation to social media comments he made after Ann Widdecombe's death) is in a polycule with Sophie Molly (aka Sparkles, aka Euan Weddell) and someone called Poppybear.

Molly, I believe, is a witness for Jolyon Maugham in Sarah Phillimore's libel case against Maugham.

Poppybear has been posting some very indiscreet posts on BlueSky about both Molly and Herbert, and it looks, tragically, as if the polycule has fallen apart.

According to Poppybear, Herbert's comments about Widdecombe "painted a bullseye on all of us", and led to the police coming in and "invading" all their devices (whatever that means).

Also according to Poppybear, living with Sophie Molly is "like being permanently slapped around the face by pathological laziness unless it's something that grooms her ego."

Oh dear.

In a separate development, apparently Herbert has had his toxic kidney removed by the NHS so the money donated to the fundraiser is going to be used for something else:

It was concerning to read his comments about being asked by medical staff if he was in an abusive relation. He indicated that if he said no, then it would make things worse.
He needs to get far away from the others. It would be good for his mental health.

The fact that someone who's claimed to have had multiple psychotic episodes is the most clear eyed about the hideous dysfunction in that house is quite a thing

BettyJoanPerske · Yesterday 23:09

I probably shouldn't, but I actually feel a bit sorry for Poppybear. Whatever you think about this nonsensical movement, he is clearly a very vulnerable person and is in the finding out stage of FAFO.

No, but you could replace it with “clusterfuckular” which has an extra syllable.

There's my next username.

More like a ridicule than a polycule.

What a palaver! A group of men with fucked up lives who focus on hating women whilst insisting that they are women. Self mutilation, a frock, and a packet of Angel Delight, won't turn you a laydee. Nor does celebrating the death of a woman like Ann Widdecombe.

Instead of the State pandering to them, they need some kind of intervention. They are all very disturbed people ime publicly playing their sagas out for the attention they feed off.

I would feel sad for them, if I didn't know how much they hated women.

I don't think I want to know how the Angel Delight features.

KittyWilkinson · Yesterday 13:45

Not even spinny frocks. If you are as short as I am they are a healthy and safety hazard. They've near had my eye out a few times due to erratic twirling.

@KittyWilkinson
Not even a REALLY spinny frock? Doesn't that count for extra credit?

That bsky link you posted. The reply about an ego checksum, and pot noodle sweat. These people are very very strange.

But then I wouldn't be able to use the adjective "polycular".

I feel that 'clusterfuck' might be a better term than 'polycule'.

All sounds very disturbing.

Oh dear. This all sounds so dysfunctional. For all the parties involved!

@Lalgarh
Ahhh thank you. I think your additional information helps me. I was wondering how could he possibly not have known? Your additional info makes me think that it was only a problem when the "wife" was discovered to be a Chinese spy. I think at that point the diplomat played the "I had no idea, get out of jail" card. That's the only possible explanation that makes any sense.
Perhaps ( almost certainly ) the Chinese knew of the diplomat's tastes and tailored the whole situation from the start.
Prior to your additional info I had a mental vision of the Chinese spy having a meeting with his superiors and there being a big "You want me to do what??? A false moustache and trench coat is one thing, but no fukking way am I doing that! " followed by copious arm twisting and a Chinese wrist burn or two.

I'm sorry but I couldn't stop laughing while watching that. I'm very against sex by deception, but I just couldn't help myself. That crosses the line into the far absurd farce. Made me think of Inspector Clouseau.
Surely from a spying point of view that's got to be an ultimate success? I've heard of disguises but that's just ridiculous.

Bernard had had multiple bi relationships as well so you'd think he'd know.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard_Boursicot

He even wanted to form his own throuple with the spy and another man

I'm thinking the mysterious Tabitha is the Mata Hari of that Aberdeen group. Group purity spiral dictates that someone will accuse him of being an MI5 plant soon

I dunno, there have been plenty of middle-of-the-night sirens through the summer.

Maybe it’s the same over-zealous PC - he did tell WOS that he had to come in IMMEDIATELY which was not only nuts but also actually untrue.

Probably Easier to claim being hoodwinked than gay in those days

Looking at the pictures of all involved, that Frenchman wasn’t very observant 🤯

His knowledge of female anatomy and human reproduction must have been truly lamentable.

Good grief. That poor child.
