"I have flu" is the Victorian way, you 21st century heathen! I'm actually shocked that Rooby Dooby Doo isn't calling it influenza. Or that she isn't claiming to be ailing from the wicked consumption, or gripped by scarlet fever, or languishing from the bubonic plague, or in frail health due to dysentery. In her next video she'll be prescribing herself sea air and opium, or staging a dramatic near-death scene. "Day in the life: Beth March inspired".
HAHAH ok you got me 😂 well if her next video is flu-themed I’m predicting “I tried living like a Victorian with the bubonic plague” 🤠

I was thinking that she would go more like Emily Dickenson and just stay in her bedroom writing awful poetry and stories, or just one of those rich victorian women who just decide to never leave the house and stay in their bedrooms all day. I could even see her go down the Miss Haversham route probably after another Oxford rejection.

I do wonder if we are going to get a flu vlog from Ruby and all the things that she had apparently managed to do when she was ill including writing two books, going for runs, going for long walks, arts and crafts ect. Her content hasn't been too inspiring and it's just been her showing the window and corners of the room again, so I'm dying for a video as tattle keeps me going when I'm doing uni work!

Struggling with ideas for unattainable slash stupid goals for the new year? Never fear, Rootabaga is here with some brilliant ideas, such as ”run 5x a week”, ”see self as writer”, and ”carry change so I can pretend to help the homeless” 😂

edit: I like how she's always banging on about waking up early yet she needs to make it a new year's resolution, she couldn't have been lying about that could she?

"See self as a writer" :sick: :rolleyes:

Also, does she have ideas for her "new short story" or "Christmas tree poem" or are they arbitrary goals she can tick off and say she's done?

'non-negotiable' daily walks sounds... threatening? sounds like she's trying to force herself into doing exercise which can't be good for her mental health, surely?

Yup, and running 5x a week is in the same vein.

I hope Ruby gains some perspective when she starts her new job. Even three days a week, she'll realise how arbitrary her busywork is. If she actually wanted to exercise for health (rather than weight management) reasons then she'd just say "run regularly" and take the pressure off it.

However from what Ruby's shown of her runs, they're more like mad ten second sprints incorporated into a walk (like, just go on a walk, walks are perfectly good for you).

She's really aiming high this year!

A whopping 1 video a week for the platform that brings in all her money.

A month ago she was pretending to leave £5 notes in books for people who don't need money to find, yet the homeless are only deserving of an imaginary 26p.

The 'health' goals include running 5 times a week and "stratching". They do not include eating a substantial, nutritious meal at any point in 2023.

Also missing from her resolutions: 'Declare your ads.' Starting the year as she means to go on, this is an undeclared ad for the Plonkin' Poddovotee planner.

And after abandoning Lottie Parton, she's now seemingly back to the drawing board with her Lemony Snicket knock-off book as well. If her agent's resolutions aren't 'Fire Ruby', 'Block Ruby' and 'Never sign a client based on their crappy, crappy YouTube channel ever again', then they've already ducked up.

It looks like she was gearing up to show off her Christmas haul one present at a time, but she's currently got multiple people commenting to remind her that cashmere is not vegan, so she'll probably trundle off to the rusty crack den at the end of her garden to cry instead.

Can anyone make out what the brackets next to "Keep change on me" say? It looks like "homeless lack"?

Is that list of dross Rube's rather bland New Year's 'goals'. I see nowhere on it about improving her blar YouTube channel. I think she needs a content overhaul. Perhaps she feels she can n to her study-channel roots' if she does a Masters. I rather think it'll end up being the same old same old. Her journey from childhood to womanhood seems somewhat static. I think the very very best thing she could do is get herself an ordinary job. By that I don't mean working it in her old school. I hope Oxford see her for what in my view is an uncreative, unimaginative, uninspiring, unoriginal and uncritical thinker. If getting a First is sufficient in and of itself then my opinion of it as an institution will fall.

What an absolute moron.
She probably doesn't know what cashmere means.

It sounds as though she hates the walks and is having arguments with herself to avoid them. 😂 I would never describe a leisure activity as 'non-negotiable'.

She probably thinks it’s made of money just like she is, so it has to be vegan.

edit: oh no no no no #burntheshorts

#Burntheshorts should have been her new year's resolution. I can't believe she's bringing all of that brown energy into 2023. It's at the point where I'm (almost) feeling admiration for Ruby's fashion choices. This outfit screams ' I don't care about looking sane in public'.

Wtf is she wearing?
I hate that I can give you an answer, but she’s wearing a t shirt, a cricket or tennis jumper, velvet shorts in a strange brownish mauveish colour, black tights, ski bleeping socks and a pair of school shoes, which she has something of a fetish for. On anyone else, this would be an ”our washing machine broke and there’s no such thing as a laundromat where we live” outfit, but for Roobee, it’s just Tuesday.

edit. I’m really the last person ever to judge what anyone is wearing, seeing as I’ve been seen taking out the trash in orange wellies, pink flowered pyjama bottoms and beige fleece jacket as recently as this morning, but I didn’t put that tit on insta and call it an outfit.

I see she is going for the new homeless rich vegan (liar, ahem) look in fashion for 2023. Nice...

She hasn't learned a thing from any clothing company sponsors! She never learns anything!

Her goals for the year are just sad and sorry. Her life is so empty and vague. She has no vision, no future!

Why, oh why, is she taking a mirror selfie with the flash? Haven’t we left the flash in the 90s with our nans’ crap film cameras?
