Ruby Granger Gossip Forum

New thread as she has just posted a new video all about commonplacing and I predict we will all have plenty to say about that! 😂 Title credit goes to @thegossboss92 and @Larancia, brace yourselves because this is definitely going to be the theme for the upcoming year. To very briefly recap...

Making a new thread because new vid just dropped! Credit to @StatusWoe for the title - it was a propitious early suggestion (the very recent ones at the end of the last thread get honorary mentions, because I was wheezing at them as well 😂) and I feel it‘ll serve as a warning to us all: Roobee’s...

Thank you @Binx and random yt commenter for the title! Hilary Tahrm at Awksfud has wrapped up and Ruby is back in her childhood bedroom, cosplaying a primary school child. She went a month and a half without posting, saying she was suddenly anxious about filming and stressed out about essays...

Joint credit for thread title goes to @Sibyl Vane and @DarthMiepies! Roobee is festering in her childhood bedroom over Christmas br... I mean vac, showing no signs of going back to Oxford though term starts next week. She has entertained us with a video on "how to be an intellectual", which...

Thank you @Larancia for the apt title! Roobafer is in Oxford, and so is Emma Watson. No crossover yet, though we live in hope, and Emma has reportedly brought security. Ruby has been a bit quiet on the content front, leading to speculation that all may not be sunshine and daisies in the land of...

Congratulations to @secretalphabets on a thread title as suggested by @Charlotte_Sometimes. You both win a Pret subscription and Oxford lanyard. Ruby is at Oxford! She appeared to wander around the town at a super early time, didn't realise there are certain library books that are not for loan...

Thread for everyone (probably all…five of us, but who knows, we might collect a few more) from the Ruby Granger thread to continue our off-topic ramblings and polite arguments about the state of academic funding for arts and humanities in the UK. Also open for general academia off-topic chat if...

Thanks to @CatCafe234 for the new title. (I hope I didn't skip anything else with a higher vote.) Ruby is off to Oxford soon, without the aid of her favourite tutor friend Blakeney, but she's not entirely alone, as she's already sharpening her ChatGPT skills to carry her through a degree she...

Thank you to @theMoth for the title! We are presently in the “throws of summer” but Little Miss Rootabaga kindly continues to provide whatever she thinks will pass for entertainment these days. Right now, she’s holidaying in Italy (her 4th Italy trip in the past year btw) with her BASST FRAND...

Thank you @bananapeel for the title, which is a direct quote from the Collected Writings of Renowned Awwthor Rubehilda Bones-Granger, published in 17 volumes as soon as her bestselling debut The Secret History of Alyssa Arvon’s Bruised Knuckles hits the shelves! Miss Rootabaga is currently...

New thread, thanks to @LostGhosts for the title - the first in what we can safely anticipate to be a year-long string of brilliant Jesus-themed thread titles, because if you didn’t know, Little Miss Rootabaga finally got her lifelong wish and somehow wangled her way into a Master’s course in...

Thanks to @Griftwood for the thread title. These are Ruby's own words, from an Instagram post where she's attempting to sell her unwanted stationery. Some things never change. Recap: Ruby appears to have ditched her part-time school job and is currently on a skiing holiday. She can't ski and...

Thanks to @CatCafe234 for the title!

Thanks to @coffeehead for this title, commemorating The Great Consumption of 2022/23, which led to our productive queen being *gasp* unable to complete her Goodreads goal for 2022!

Thanks to @teflonpanda for the thread title. Your prize is the collected works of Emily Dickinson and a corvid of your choice. (y) In the previous thread, Ruby shocked us all by going on a solo trip to Boston. She spent almost a month wafting around the Emily Dickinson Museum. Rumour has it the...

Time for a new thread, me hearties Thread title by @CatCafe234 and nominated by @StatusWoe. You both get a 50g bag of Community Library Tea. Ruby launched her tea with Burden Bland, a Tattler kindly took one for the team confirming it's alright, but nothing like a candlelit library, as...

Thank you @StatusWoe for the inspired title! 🙌 Roobee went to Scotland with mummy and came back, is planning a “solo” trip to America, and something v. exciting with Burden Blend (or is it Bard and Bland?) is in the works. It’s been autumn for several months in Roobeeland. Also she’s taken to...

Credit for title goes to @bananapeel - a perfect synopsis of Roobee’s life! Roobar is at home, hoarding furniture and vInTaGe letter-writing supplies in her room so she never has to leave it - now it’s just a matter of luring Mother Granger in there long enough that she can get back in the womb...

Thanks @braginskayas for the thread title! Recap: Ruby graduated with a first from Exeter, putting her firmly in the top 50 % of students 🥳 She’s all set to spend the rest of her life this year regressing into childhood working on bEcOmInG a wROyTeR and getting a book deal. Grab a cup of Bard...

Thank you to @heroesfeast for the wonderful title. In the last thread, Ruby finally received her degree results and was disappointed that she only got a measly first. Not to worry, though! Ruby then told us that grades aren't important (while also telling us that they are important and...

Thank you very much @Griftwood for the lovely new thread title, anyone want to recap? 🤪

Credit for thread title goes to @marcelprout, with an honorary mention to @rubella for asking the ever-relevant question ”Girl what is we doin??” Roodassbeech has finished and turned in 8,000 words of… something, and is now free of every care in the world as she waltzes on towards adulthood...

Credit for title goes to @teflonpanda - deservedly by a landslide! We have a new video! First one in two weeks!

Thank you to @Griftwood for the thread title ;) Ruby is still 'wOrKiNg oN hEr DiSsErTaTiON' - aka. writing chapters on everything without any particular focus Barely mentioned the war in Ukraine until her management pushed all their influencers to raise money (directly through YouTube, so sadly...
