She'll be back. Lives for and loves the attention.

Yeah exactly this, like loser fox too, very needy

I hope the mods are keeping a close eye on new users signing up at the moment.

That's not even as horribly offensive as she'd like it to be is it? More obnoxiously tedious.

like someone trying to be offensive and falling flat on her face instead

 

[Plumdaff]

Looks like it got her sacked by the woke mob at The Telegraph... (can't link atm but she's announced it on Facebook apparently)

The idea that lame comment is too racist for the telegraph is pretty incongruous - absolutely no way was she just sacked for that.

I'm sure she's a delightful colleague and her 'edgy' ideas they kept nixing were genius.

It doesn't really make enough sense to be offensive. It's just utterly pathetic.

It seems Twitters main purpose is to provide a platform for its users to disgrace itself?

No, its just thats more newsworthy than other stuff that happens there.

It has been quite invaluable to me in this pandemic, I have benefitted from knowledge that lots of experts in their fields have shared there, stuff that I likely wouldnt have otherwise had access to.

Certainly one of its uses is to exhibit how many liberal 90s celebs have awful views.

It's a lot more than that though. Depends how you use it tbh

I just spent three minutes looking for what she had said and was disappointed at how rubbish and unfunny it was. Though I don't know why I'd expect better from Burchill.

We...are...?

 

[Dystopiary]

Saw this thread had been updated and thought maybe she had de-flounced already.
