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:

Oh my. Reply hidden.

It's Poppy Bears birthday today, and Herbert appears to have sent a good will message

murasaki · 23/08/2026 12:46

I thought they weren't allowed to communicate. And I guess it's not that full of good will.....

Lalgarh · 23/08/2026 13:30

Herbert hasn't directly pinged Poppybear. But it's a sort of entreaty that seems to be meant for him

To my Kochanski, Three million years from home and you're still the coordinates I steer by. Happy birthday. Lister never stopped believing he'd find the way back. I've never been any good at giving up on impossible things either. Still yours across the distance,

That’s a red dwarf reference? Do they think Holly the computer transitioned between the early Norman and later Hattie series?

Lalgarh · 23/08/2026 14:03

It's probably where they first had the idea.

Looking at their feeds, the only people they ever interact with are other TRAs. Hackett only seems to communicate with someone called Alex (he /him And they/ them) who limits his feed BC he's a "34 year old Bisexual Polyamorous Non-binary Male into kink, writing gaming and left wing politics. I like sharks, Farscape, Star Trek, Fallout 4, porn and consequences for rich people."

Is that from the AI anti-rights report?

Not sure.

It's a bit like Friends. All the lads think they're Joey but they're really more like Ross or Chandler.

Imagine a house share episode with season 1 Rimmer, Dwyane Dibley, David Ross as Kryten and a raging insane monster that is 50% Bombay Bad Boy Pot Noodle.

His sentence structure has gone to pot.

As I was mentioning in my impounded post, the weird Ali G / I can Has Cheeseburger/ Stanley Unwin style has been attributed to 'MPD', which presumably is multiple personality disorder

Alex clearly hasn't realised that, globally-speaking at least (and people like this are always very hot on speaking globally) he very much IS rich people.

A cynic might think that Chris is trying to create an unwell image. “It wasn’t me, it was my dark alter” is a defense. Not a good one, but it is a defense

I wondered if he’s channelling PC Tufty Quirrel from the Stuart MacBride Logan Macrae novels.

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 23/08/2026 17:30

Probably thinks it makes him look clever rather than making him look illiterate.

murasaki · 23/08/2026 17:33

I think @Seriestwo is on to something, he's building up a picture of being unwell re his court case, which seems to be going on for ever.

murasaki · 23/08/2026 17:35

And although Herbert didn't contact him directly, it's still aimed at him, so I wouldn't be surprised if he's archived that post as evidence of Herbert breaking the comms ruling. He's not as green as he's cabbage looking, as my granny would have said.

I got the impression that he’s part of two different court cases? He’s had three appearances for the one he was back up to Aberdeen for.

Here is an archive of it in case it gets deleted by the way

It's pot noodle who did a whole fricking Love Song for Herbert kidney, and how does he repay him? Making paens to the ex polycule member who nurses a burning loathing of him. I can't actually remember if Herbert acknowledged it.

It's a good job there's no stereotypical male jealousy in that polycule because otherwise you'd have carnage....

I'm sorry. He's dropped his magnum opus now

WARNING ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️

This has 4 likes which leads me to conclude firstly WTF???? and secondly that either YouTube don’t allow you to retract a vote or that Poopy hasn’t tried yet.

If the Greens have their way, nobody will be allowed to discuss issues like this. They're very keen on muzzling the Press - not surprising given the number of scandals they get involved in, but chilling nonetheless:

This is what Harry and Meghan are campaigning for....

Lalgarh · 23/08/2026 21:16

And Jolyon Maugham/ Good Law Project. He's resurfaced on Instagram and has celebrities singing his many open letters like Alison Hammond and Annie Lennox.

Meanwhile:

Hackett is mourning not having his tricycle, Matilda. Also, looks like the Herbert message was read

"my personalities are bouncing round like a mutha fucka today.
I genuinely thought I could spend the rest of my life with heather, dealing with Sophie was pushing me beyond my limits, it's hard to not feel crushed when someone shows so little care for what you are going through.
happy birthday to me."

And connected via failed litigation (Harry et al -v- ANL) to the estate of right-wing perv Max Mosley via Hacked Off via various Liberal Democrat former MPs (eg Dr Evan Harris, Sir Simon Hughes).

Interestingly the current Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrats Daisy Cooper worked for Hacked Off as joint Executive Officer.

Harry has also called the US First Amendment bonkers, and supported Mermaids.

He's previously called Mermaids "amazing."
