I don't know the ins and outs of this case, but I did think that what one person classes as bullying, others would class as Scottish humour.

If there's ins and outs, it seems like "bullying" doesn't cover it.

Prison bullying isn't what it used to be.

I'm not a doctor but may I suggest a link between your current infection and your post a couple of weeks back, that stated you jam a car key in your ears every time you enter a bathroom?

Hopefully you get it sorted.

If only:

Rossi "I'm being bullied in prison"

Sheriff "That's because you're a total cnut"

I can’t remember which thread contained the chat about Jack Monroe but there’s an interview with her in the Guardian that’s worth reading.

She does not sound like someone who is well placed to deal with being flung money for book/writing deals and via Patreon. It reminds me a bit of the Natalie McGarry case, surely someone around should have said that this person needs a bit of help and isn’t in a position to manage.

Agents and promoters should have a lot more involvement than cashing a cheque, it's a sad story thankfully not with a terrible ending often seen.

Kanye West is the probably best example of someone spiralling out of control and Avicii was basically worked to death by his label
