God forbid she uses a fork or a spoon like everyone else!
This actually worries me as when I was struggling with my ED I used to eat with chopsticks to eat slower and eat less. It’s a big thing on a lot of ED related forums. I don’t know if she saw that somewhere and is doing it to further the idea of one or if she is struggling, if so I really hope she gets help.

”My first property” really grated on me. Congrats, Roobee, you were born to privilege and you’re going to continue in your privilege, oblivious to the real world, like the little tory your parents have made in their image. Go ahead and buy a second one, why don’t you, as long as the youtube cash is still rolling in.

Wow I was looking at that wondering which thing looked least appetizing out of the diet crisps, the sad bowl of cress, the basket of uncooked asparagus or the single bottle of wine between 4 people… then I clicked to the next story and I think the winner has to be the plate of toast garnished with whole unchopped cloves of garlic! Who tf eats like this pls 😭

Did Ruby read the words 'garlic bread' somewhere and assumed this is what it meant?

Re: the first question - no, Ruby has never mentioned anything about having a partner. She's never talked about dating/her sexuality afaik. Personally, I think it crosses a line to speculate about her virginity on here (especially since virginity is a social construct anyway, and women should never be shamed/criticized for their supposed 'virginity status', or for not having a boyfriend, imho).
Exactly, why do people even care if she’s had sex or not? Like come on are you actually 14 to be asking if someone has lost their V card yet 🤣

Does anyone remember her review video about the pros and cons of living in a studio? To me, that was the nail in the coffin for her unrelatability. In the whole 15-minute video, she didn't once mention the price disparity between a single room in shared accommodation and a studio (as a con or otherwise).

She didn't even think to mention the cost because, to her, it was immaterial. That's privilege right there, and the blissful ignorance of the fact that for her subscribers, the cost would be one of (if not the) most important factors.

Has someone seen her latest insta post? It's a photo dump from this week and it says "I had a tea date with my friend Vicky" and then shows a pic of Blakeney. Idk if it's either autocorrect or if she's trying to pass Blakeney as several different people, but if my friend of mine wrote a completely different name to mine I would be very confused.

How does her fake accent keep getting worse? At this rate, she'll be speaking in nothing but vowel sounds by the end of the year.

Some of the books she pretended to read, according to Ruby's embarrassingly fake Emma Watson accent:

I don't know if it's sheer coincidence, if they lost the recordings or Ruby's pulling out all the stops to make sure she only embarrasses herself on her own platforms, but Oxford Union have now uploaded every single debate from last year aside from the one she took part in. They just skipped right over it.

Maybe this is just a personal pet peeve, but I can't stand when people compliment others in this attention-seeking 'me me me' way. Particularly the second point - selflessness is a good trait to have, but putting others above yourself the entire time isn't healthy. I'd like to see Ruby compliment Blakeney as a person, not just view her in terms of what makes her similar to Ruby (or how Ruby views herself). Why not compliment her sense of humour, or her dress style, or the things that make her an individual, rather than what she does for other people? This post couldn't be more self-centered.

I felt a bit sad watching her keep yoghurt in her mini-fridge and pour it into some tupperware in her room, and especially when she tried to fill her water bottle using the bathroom sink, eventually resorting to pouring the water into a cup and transferring it into the bottle. She's 100% avoiding her flatmates and it'll be to her detriment. Uni is hard and stressful, but being able to bond as a house/flat and realise that everyone else is experiencing the same emotions is so valuable.

I have so many questions about this morning routine...

-how is she a 'recent' graduate? she handed her diss in 4+ months ago, she is a third of the way through her gap year
-does she not know how to brush her hair? genuine question because it looks and sounds painful every time she does it
-why is it terrible quality ASMR for the first half then narrated for the second half? pick one
-why does the porridge have so many random flavours in it? why is it made with TEA?!?!?
-omg the metal fork scraping the metal pan, please god no
-why is she soaking a pot in cold water? use hot water lol there is a boiling water tap right there
-why does she just go in the garden and stand there like some kind of weird apparition - maybe you don't have time for a walk, but you could play with the dog or something damn, don't just stand and be spooky
-final point WHY does she empty her unfinished tea into the bin right at the very end? the sink Ruby! use the sink for liquids!

Unless she's ditched veganism for fish and chips, her new alternative to posting triggering images of her food is apparently to just show other people's food instead? Just stop posting images of food! It's not hard!

You have to prepare yourself mentally because just when you think it couldn't get any worse, it does.
A comment that could equally apply to Ruby's content.

Untitlelkkld0000000019.jpg


Commenter: "Have you considered branching out and reading books from non-English-speaking countries?"

Ruby: "I had no choice! I can only pretend to read the books I see on display in WATERSTONES or the ones that people I follow have reviewed so I can jump on the bandwagon and borrow their thoughts! Blame my LACK-CHUR-URSS! What do you expect me to do, use my initiative and my supposed research skills and look for non-bestseller books that I might enjoy? Crazy talk."

Also Ruby: (Suddenly forgets that she pretended to read books from Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese-American authors in this very video.)

Ruby should probably start actually reading books in general before tacking non-English books.

This commenter was maybe a little unfair, though; it's not like English isn't a foreign language to Ruby, too.


Untitlelkkld0000000020.jpg


Commenter: "Could you stop setting your videos to superspeed please? It makes it hard to watch."

Ruby: "Of course! Responding to feedback is my specialty!"

Commenter who asked Ruby to stop speeding up her videos weeks ago: "Yo, what the fuck, dude?"

Any screenshots? I live for the bookclub drama!
One of the mods had put up a poll about Zoom calls, and 30 people had voted for Sunday 7 pm. No one showed up, so the mod was understandably disappointed. A couple of people in the comments pointing out that the book club is dead and Ruby has ghosted. I feel too bad for the mod to post a screenshot. If Ruby was at all interested in anyone but herself, she’d have officially put an end to it, or made a statement of some kind, a long time ago. Now the mods are left to pick up the pieces. The #kindest thing anyone could do would be to just shut it down.

Imagine being Martha and wanting a glass of water from the kitchen and you get yelled at because your 20 year old sister is too busy cosplaying a starving Victorian orphan in there.
I mean, I like Ruby despite her faults but come on! I would be going as far away as possible as well.

i’m also not one to really care about the prince harry conversation but i find it genuinely hilarious that this is what irritates her viewers enough to think less of her, as opposed to the constant lies, charity grifting, undeclared ads, ed baiting…

This advert for the school that Ruby went too is so pretentious, the girls in it are like little Ruby clones. These fuckers are setting up franchises of Ruby's 😂
lmao these people are truly living in a different world. Imagine having gone to school with all those facilities, even a nice indoor pool and perfect-looking science labs, it's a different level of privilege. Makes me feel sorry for myself having gone to a crusty village school with bits falling off the asbestos-filled 60s buildings, dictionaries being thrown at teachers, and always being told to use everything 'sparingly' 😂

also love that they picked what's probably the only 3 minority ethnic girls in the school to do the ad, so inclusive x
