@AyoCaesar Can you please remind me of the age of the Prophet Mohammad's first wife? Thank you in anticipation! https://t.co/D7h4aQMuzH— Julie Burchill (@BoozeAndFagz) December 13, 2020
looks like Julie Burchill is a bit worried everyone has forgotten she exists today or has started a bit too early on the booze and fagz. For context this Islamophobic reply is in defence of a 2012 Rod Liddle Spectator piece where he said he'd never become a teacher because he wouldn't trust himself to not to try and fuck some children.
― calzino, Sunday, 13 December 2020 21:39 (five years ago)
The line is "I don't think I'd have dabbled much below year 10" which implies he would have gone at least to year 9, which is 13-14 year-old children he would have been unable to stop himself abusing.

I can't believe when I was young and impressionable, lol my early 20's - I used to think she was pretty sharp and witty at times!
― calzino, Sunday, 13 December 2020 21:52 (five years ago)
I can even remember her having a real violent dig at Hunter Davies (? I think) for writing some dodgy as fuck paedo normalising copy in one of the broadsheets in the mid 90's, but the memory is bit hazy tbh.
― calzino, Sunday, 13 December 2020 21:56 (five years ago)
she had an anti-John Peel column when he died based on the fact that he had a "sexy schoolgirl" photo contest or sth in the 70s, and this is like the same thing but much worse?
― Gary Sambrook eats substantial meals (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Sunday, 13 December 2020 22:00 (five years ago)
well maybe she rationalises by: it's just a bit of a laugh in that particular case. God knows, you'd have to be some kind of a sociopath to become a female Liddle defender. I mean he's a violent wife-beater for a start.
― calzino, Sunday, 13 December 2020 22:09 (five years ago)
(xp) Yes, she was always having a pop at Peel for that one.

From a review of Julie's play about brexit:"Meanwhile, on press night, Rod Liddle was in the audience, braying loudly every time the Brexiteers scored a so-called point. Awful to witness, mistaking bullish tribalism for legitimate feeling, and with no interest in examining uncomfortable facts on both sides, at least in People Like Us this messy, polarising Brexit has the play it deserves."https://www.metro.news/messy-and-inept-julie-burchills-brexit-play-is-just-like-the-real-thing/1260295/

Reading her Twitter feed this morning I did think "yeah, she won't be on here long" but wasn't expecting it to be deleted a couple of hours later. I reported a very nasty anti-bisexual post she put up a few days ago which seems to have gone unnoticed.
― Gary Sambrook eats substantial meals (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Monday, 14 December 2020 14:12 (five years ago)
i mean self-hatred blah blah etc -- plus she's weaponised identity as cover for bigotry all her life -- but htf is she not openly and self-declaredly bisexual herself?
― mark s, Monday, 14 December 2020 14:42 (five years ago)
She wrote a TV series about it! I do not get what she is about besides giggling and throwing poo, and she can't even seem to do that right these days.
― Gary Sambrook eats substantial meals (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Monday, 14 December 2020 14:51 (five years ago)
She had a quite a high profile affair with Charlotte Raven, wasnt it? When she was married to the American who also wrote for the Times iirc
― calzino, Monday, 14 December 2020 14:55 (five years ago)
From wikipedia
She wrote of the joys of having a "toyboy" in her Times "Weekend Review" column. Fellow NME journalist/author Paul Wellings wrote about their friendship in his book I'm A Journalist...Get Me Out of Here. She has written about her lesbian relationships, and declared that "I would never describe myself as 'heterosexual', 'straight' or anything else. Especially not 'bisexual' (it sounds like a sort of communal vehicle missing a mudguard). I like 'spontaneous' as a sexual description".In 2009 she said that she was only attracted to girls in their 20s, and since she was now nearly 50, "I really don't want to be an old perv. So best leave it".

for the last 20 odd years I've wore little else other than .. ahem.. relaxed fit, black 501s, for the last decade usually 2nd hand from e-bay. The last ones I ordered they bloody well sent me w34 l32. I angrily messaged them: I wouldn't have even fitted into those 15 years ago (or 35 years ago if my name was Rod Liddle)
