I’ll get screenshots for anyone not on X but I have to love JKR for this ❤️

Oh i see we are having a TRA party.

As funny as it is, i agree it's beneath her

Me too. Usually I think she’s brilliant but this does feel beneath her. India’s not worth it.

Is she?
Why did she use Robert Galbraith as her pen name then? Do you also support Gay Conversion Therapy and the horrors that go with it? As that's what Robert Galbraith did. And she chose it. She's an intelligent woman. She knew what she was doing.

Bless your heart.

You’re right @KingTutting,
he lives for any sniff of
attention from
JKR.

I've loved all the poetry but this one made me laugh the most.
Are you related to Homer Simpson by any chance? Probably not the other Homer..😂

That’s my favourite.

OMG!!! 😂 JKR is utterly savage! 😆

IW does bring it on herself somewhat to be honest!!!

I can't claim the credit - it's been around on tinterwebs for a while

RoyalCorgi · 15/02/2025 20:08

I don't think JKR should engage with IW - it's beneath her. She is so much more intelligent, more talented, better-looking, wittier etc - why give him the time of day even? She should just mute.

And does anyone understand IW's original point about the two photographs?

The stupid twat is making the point that he thinks that Sandie looks like a bully. Maybe because Upton is simpering? Who knows?

Waitwhat23 · 15/02/2025 21:39

Why are some of the TRA posts on here making me think of the absolute fool on Twitter who thought JKR had actually hired a hot air balloon, instead of, you know, using AI?

Hot air balloon melt, are you on here?

(Edited to add - actually, why am I asking why?)

Bannedontherun · 15/02/2025 21:40

To be fair JKR had to react because Sandie Pegg is just an ordinary working class nurse who just wants to change at work without a bloke in the room.

Yep - still deluded.

I think India used Chatgpt

That makes sense, I suppose I don’t actually have the full background because I’m not on Twitter anymore so see the snippets really .

Probably would’ve been better if it was ChatGPT to be fair.

There is 18 threads on here about the case if you should wish to learn about the case.

TwistedWonder · 15/02/2025 21:52

Tbh JKR did originally only post the first poem then someone else tweeted their own which she responded to.

So the first one was poking fun at IW and the further ones were a bit of banter with her followers I think

At least it’s better than the latest Bob Galbraith offering.

Dearie me, I take it you have read said "latest Bob Galbraith offering" and are qualified to comment.

I have not, neither have I read the HP books nor the Strike books because, despite having endured several bum-numbing hours in the cinema accompanying DC I am not a fan of children's fantasy fiction. I am also not generally a fan of private detective fiction so I can't comment on the literary merits of JKR's prowess in either genre.

I have come to admire JKR because, yeah, she could have sat comfy in her not actually a castle, more of a big hoose., but she didn't, she's put herself out there, taken the flack that other women can't afford to take, literally put her money where her mouth is and hasn't backed down despite the most heinous and disgusting threats against her.

But all you've got is "nah, your mum".

Try again.

Mochudubh · 15/02/2025 22:08

Oh and to add to the original point. I think IW is so deluded as to think the majority of people viewing those images can't tell who is the male and who is the female.

Goes along with the Question Time episode where IW addressed the audience and said "Is it my fault I look like this'? It wasn't clear what IW meant but he did a sort of circular motion around his face as if to say "Is it my fault I look so gorgeously female"? I wanted someone to shout "look like what" but of course Fiona had to move on.

He's totally delusional,

Yep miss the old twitter where )without being on twitter) one could google a name and key words and have a peek at what was going on on a thread

Rose are red
Violets are blue
Cut off your penis
And testicles too

Grow your hair long
Wear red lipstick
Put on a dress
You still ain’t a chick

As much as you want to
Try hard as you can
You're still not a woman
You're always a man

Thought I’d try my hand at this poetry lark while I’m here

Edited

Brilliant and very funny 👏🏼
