How are her parents not intervening? Are they in denial? Their daughter has an ED is embarrassing herself worldwide!
No amount of money is worth that

Have you guys ever tried to get in touch with 16th and her parents to report ruby's worrying ED and mental state?
Her parents are totally enabling her ED. In one of her "daily study with mes" Ruby mentioned that she went swimming with her dad which I found kind of sad given that all Ruby cares about at this point is exercise and consuming as little food as possible.

Again, we have no way of knowing how her parents may or may not have attempted to interfere, but I can say from my experience that parents who haven’t experienced a problematic relationship to food AND who are themselves possibly trying to battle middle-age spread… are just not going to be the most discerning or sensitive.

You guys I just love perlego because you can use the highlight function (which is not available anywhere else and has never been done before) and the notes function (also never done before)! I especially love perlego when they pay me :love:

Not that it would necessarily be the best thing for her anyway, but I’m surprised she hasn’t started planning what Masters she’ll do? Quite a lot of my friends started their application in third year, and they had a life beyond studying :)

I just watched her latest study video and… I thought she said she finished her dissertation and essay? Why is she going over it AGAIN?? When I wrote my essays for uni I read over them twice or three times, making little edits and then that’s it. I wasn’t doing as much as Roobster here.

my guess is that it was a backlog thing because she had to send it to the good people of perlego to get it approved before posting? but then she committed to this daily video thing so she had to put out the "i finished" before this one?? Or she's just continuing to beat those dead horses

I'm watching the newest video and I was wondering what one earth did she make her mum for breakfast?

I just love how everything is Ruby's favourite if she is being sponsored by it. It is such a pet peeve of mine but I had how she (and other book influencers)just do that thing where they flick through the pages of the book, just show me the cover of it! I don't want to see pages!

I believe she got disillusioned and gave up on going further, she just doesn't want to admit it. So far she sticks to claiming she wants to take a gap year.

Ruby definitely wanted her dissertation to be finished first, and she planned that as an audition piece to attach to her Masters application.

In her mind, she was going to write a Masters or above piece of work at undergrad level, and it was going to wow the admissions people reviewing her application with how she was working far beyond her academic level.

She'd said before that she was expecting her dissertation to be a part of future scholarship and that she was choosing her topic to compliment her Masters subject. She was also blatantly trying to butter up the lecturers on campus most likely to provide good references for her or who would potentially teach her at Masters level if she went to Exeter. She's completely delusional.

Maybe it started to dawn on her while writing this nonsense that she was completely out of her depth and that's why she decided to skip a year. Admissions definitely aren't going to be impressed to see a brainless dolt with no grasp of English apply for an English Masters and hand over a completely incoherent dissertation that reads like 6 unrelated and poorly-written GCSE essays jumbled together to form one thesis.

Masters would definitely be a bad idea, if she even got accepted anywhere. She has no future in academia, and none of the career opportunities opened up by a Masters would be remotely withing the scope of her ability, so it would be a total waste of time and money. She clearly hates education beyond the superficial praise she gets for appearing to be productive and studious.

She'll probably pivot to writing this year instead now that she has an agent, and transplant all her terrible habits, horrible, dishonest study techniques and fabricated timelines onto being an aspiring bestseller who lies about everything instead. Expect lots of "study with me" type vlogs wherein Ruby stares gormlessly at her laptop and then says, "I wryote TAN thousand WARDS in this hour AND THAN I...went for a waahlk AND THAN I...REE-SAARCHED for 6 hours AND THAN I...wryote elavan thousand mwoar wards."

Exactly. We will be treated to a year of "Write With Me" videos with that wretched clock.

”Academic perfectionism”… or tfw you know you’ve just submitted a jumbled mess of nonsense but it’s too late to do anything about it? 😆

Here’s a sample of the type of work she submits. I feel like a graduating English student ought to be able to distinguish between ”cite” and ”quote” and use a simple expression like ”in spite of”/”despite” correctly.

Is this the critical essay she was talking about? Are they usually organised with headings (unless this is just for her use as she writes and she's going to get rid of it)?

She seems to be doing a lot of retelling and summarising, something the tutors on my English Lit course routinely remind us isn't needed in our essays and it wastes valuable space for analysis.
