HALLO, IT'S ROOBEE. How many books have you read this year? Have YOU tried USING NOTION to TrAck YoR REEading?
Sharks: Chomp Chomp Chomp
I had a little look at the ”charity”, and it’s honestly not much better than that. They basically organize campaigns to inundate businesses selling shark products with tweets and I suppose other communications in hopes of pressuring them into stopping. It’s unclear why they need to raise all that money when the emphasis seems to be on getting their supporters to do the legwork. None of the money seems to be going to actually protecting sharks (such as providing resources for the people who rely on shark trade to find alternative means of supporting themselves).

In other words, the perfect charity for Roobee - lots of merch is getting sold and money is moving around in conveniently vague patterns, and no one has to actually do anything. You get to be a good person just by wearing a bleeping t-shirt.

Did anyone else noticed the bouquet of flowers resting on the floor?
She's mourning the loss of the Ukraine charity money she never got the chance to steal.

For real though, I think this is the bouquet of weeds she keeps in a jar on her desk. So she moved the dead weeds and dumped them all over the floor so they wouldn't accidentally knocked off her desk while she was climbing all over it unnecessarily, but didn't think to move any of the glass objects or porcelain mugs, or the upright pens that would impale her if she fell.

This dumbass thought she was going to Oxford when she'd struggle with basic 'Match the shapes!' puzzles you give to toddlers.

Is this a reflection of Exeter or Ruby's limited social circle? I've heard that Exeter has a very white, middle-class student body but surely there must be some international students too?
I can't speak to the Exeter Uni demographic from experience, but the background of Ruby's campus footage make it seem like a pretty diverse student population. I'd definitely be curious to hear how students there have found it, though.

The dead giveaway for me Ruby definitely seeks out people identical to herself (or her idealised, child version of herself) outside of uni as well, though. Her penpal scheme thing could've been a way for her to engage with fans from all walks of life around the world, but instead she rigged it to filter through only young Ruby clones aged 12.

Hilariously, I think Sascha (sp?) is the only person she's spent any length of time with who isn't almost identical to herself, and she's practically a doppelganger of Ruby's sister. It's so weird.

Totally agree with the hair length; it wouldn't do a thing for her vanishing hairline, but a shorter bob would at least make the rest of her lifeless, frazzled hair look more full and healthy. She won't cut it, though, it'd affect her ability to reuse old footage.

This not only rings alarm bells for me, im not quite sure it’s allowed? When u was doing the same degree at the same Uni, we were only allowed 2 official meetings with our supervisor (usually pre and post submission of our 1000 words formative assessment).

I can only conclude that either
a) the rules have changed
b) she’s not telling the truth
c) her tutor is really concerned about the direction of her dissertation
d) she’s somehow convinced her tutor to give her preferential treatment…
I think C is probably the most likely given what we've seen of Ruby's disasterpiece. I know she happily monopolises her tutors' time ordinarily, but I can't see a dissertation supervisor devoting that amount of time to an individual student unless they were clearly going completely off the rails and struggling with the assignment.

Given the amount of irrelevent nonsense Ruby has been shoving in even after multiple meetings, and the fact that she was rushing to hack thousands of words off the word count following her last meeting, I'd say her supervisor's probably getting concerned at what Ruby's handed in so far (or pissed off to be wasting their time on a moron who won't follow basic instruction).

I know we all despair of the plinkety plonk and the neverending sugarfucking plumfairy, but let us give thanks here and now that at least she no longer slaps THIS atrocity on absolutely everything, like she did at one point. Begins around 9:05 and continues all the way through to the end.

LMFAOOO WHAT IS THIS MUSIC 😭😭 I don’t know whether it’s coz it’s 8am and I’m totally sleep deprived, but I put it into 2x speed and actually nearly pissed myself when she was shoving crisps into her face
What went through her head while making this, like how did she think this was good

Got to be honest, at least she seems enthusiastic about the food haul. It's a nice change from her standard angry & miserable resting face that we've seen so often. 😆

But that background music is just hilarious. What makes it extra funny is the way it carries on for so long. Even when Ruby starts having a conversation with Mother Granger, it's still plinkety plonking in the background like a malfunctioning record with no off button. Bonus points for the way she decides to be a doctor rather than a nurse because that's obviously superior (sarcasm).

Also agree with this.

So touching

Also when it comes to meeting a lot with her tutor, maybe she just goes to their set office hours everytime and takes all their time not giving a duck about other students. It makes it super awkward cause it would be weird to throw her out. Many try hard students at my uni were doing that, sitting at the teacher's office door half an hour earlier to be first and then taking most of their time when others were waiting outside too. Super lame behaviour.

I'm on the last stages of my dissertation but I've had about six/ seven meetings (my last one is actually today ironically) since September when we started these and we've had dissertation workshops as well to discuss what we are doing and things like primary sources -though it was a waste of time. Everyone in the year got the same amount of meetings and it might be different with each university though.

"I really want to make it feel like my birthday but it doesn't feel like it"
Translation: "I really want to make it feel like my 12th birthday but it doesn't feel like it because mummy didn't hire a magician for me."

Also hilarious and not at all shocking: Toxic influencer, charity thief and compulsive liar Ruby struggles to understand the concept of morality and needs lots of flash cards to remind her what it is when preparing for her exam.

The most heart-warming part: Ruby's mum is practically in the room, then there's a cut to a static camera and she's suddenly reapproaching from a further distance. Ruby came home for her birthday and immediately started telling her mum to go away and re-enter the room after she'd set up the camera so that she could get a staged hug on film.

Omg truee :ROFLMAO: I mean who just casually keeps a whole static camera in their kitchen 🤦‍♀️

It's annoying though cause I was really really looking forward to stealing some charity money. But what can you do heh

I only skipped through it but that video seems so much more dynamic and normal than her current "I got up and did this for forty minutes, then I went to the library for fifteen minutes, then I went to a cafe for twenty minutes, then I went home for half an hour, then I walked to trampolining and stayed for thirty five minutes, then I washed up for ten minutes".

Makes me think of the smile the Grinch gives as he decides to steal Christmas. The look Ruby gives when she thinks of how many outfits she can twirl about in once she steals the charity money, or the gleeful and slightly deranged look she gives the police when they ask her where she's hidden the bodies in her murder spots- based off Gossip Guy's last commentary. Not sure which one I like more.

I agree, seeing her actually interact with other humans (and animals, she actually acknowledges her dogs here) is refreshing in comparison to her current content

She looks so much healthier in that video too - her skin is clearer and her hairline looks better. She looks so gaunt and unwell now in comparison.
