Agreed. I Googled "ruby granger house" and this forum came up multiple times on the first page of results.
I'm disappointed that no one has commented on the fact that she made her bed by...standing on her bed. Who does that? Especially when she has a narrow little twin bed, not yards of king-sized mattress that might conceivably be difficult for a short person to reach across. Even in that case, I can't imagine anyone having to climb up on the bed in order to make it.
Also, I'm convinced her mom is stoned all the time. She always looks so...unfocused. Her house is a disaster, her kids are a mess, and she's just wafting through the chaos with that weird half-smile on her face. Sheesh. I'll have what she's having.
I hope Ruby gets into Oxford. It has been mentioned here a couple of times before, but I want to repeat it: Though not guaranteed, there's at least the possibility of her learning some humility there. Which won't happen if she continues to live in her fantasy world at home. Or if she starts teaching but being left alone in the classroom with no honest feedback by experienced teachers.
There is no interview for an English literature masters at Oxford afaik. I think it’s likely she will get in.. there is around 65 places per course and only around 75 applicants (that does vary by specific course though). It’s not that competitive providing you have a first. She fits all the criteria on paper…
Or maybe she's applying for some 'manuscript studies' MA since she's explaining her interest in that area. See the part above the red highlighted area - 'this is why manuscripts are so important'. I wonder if something along those lines will have a higher acceptance rate than an English lit course?

OK that's interesting. I could see her potentially getting in then if its only based on GPA. Somehow I can't help but think that her Personal Statement will be her undoing.
According to Oxford Uni postgrad selection criteria (for the English dept). Note that Ruby fulfils the #1 criteria. Wouldn't be surprised if she's accepted, though she does need to provide written work which 'will be assessed for its analytical and critical acumen' haha.
I also searched for a course related to manuscripts/archival studies but can't find anything, so her application must be for a literature course (there's more than one - they're divided by time period).
Only snoop on here but the Oxford masters is confirmed, I highlighted in red *act surprised* I’ll probably cry laughing if she gets rejected again. View attachment 1875101
I can just see her smug smile when she announces it. I sincerely hope they have enough applications that are actually good, from people motivated by genuine academic interest instead of vanity.
"Oiy was johst tyoo fyocused on moiy mahhhsters statement to be able to slyeep and had to wake up at FOIYVE AYY AMM tyo dyo it and awlsyo read WOTHERING HOIGHTS!"
In reality, she just recorded a few minutes of footage at like 8pm of her touching a book and scribbling some nonsense, then passed it off as being 5am.
Barely a minute in and already with the undeclared ads while Mummy Bones coughs up a lung in the background.
Just Daddy Bones wandering the woods in a gigantic duster coat like he's off to hunt Dracula or some tit. Dude looks like what you'd get if you ordered Hugh Jackman in Van Helsing from Wish.com.
Ruby starts her day which has already apparently started several times by starting to write the PARRSONAL STYATEMENT that she already claimed she started. Mmkay.
HOSSTLE COCHA IS TARRIBOL, so Ruby makes sure to set a one hour timer and keep a clock ticking on-screen for only the camera to see so she can "focus on staying focused" while dressed like a primary school student. She says that all she did on this day was write her statement, so she clearly didn't do it in an hour and I'm not sure what point she thinks there was in setting a timer when she had no immediate time constraints, other than encouraging her usual nonsensical toxic productivity habits.
Speaking of toxic productivity and pointless things: It's time for an undeclared ad for the PONKY PODDUTTIFTEE PLANNER which Ruby JANUINELY uses.
She's apparently chosen to write her personal statement in full before even deciding what she wants to study, which is certainly a bold plan.
After a sponsor-begging Waterstones ad, it's "the NAXXT DYAY" which is full of "AGANN - SPOILAH - MWOAR WAHHRK". I mean, I've not seen any work at all so far in this video, but whatever.
"Waahrhk" in Ruby's mind amounts to taking a few minutes to lazily toss together some childish collage of nonsense and call it a lesson plan.
She makes a point to mention how she JOHST HAPPENS TYO BEE YEEZING HAHHR OIYPAD A LOT LATELY and this has nothing to do with her having a digital planner that she wants to advertise, not at all, JANUINELY.
The dreaded vampire scourge apparently doesn't stop at the woods - Ruby's suddenly listening to songs about vampires and waving strange antique mirrors around for some reason.
Checking for a reflection is key in sniffing out the ghastly Nosferatu, but the only parasitic leech caught on camera is charity thief Rubert.
Then it's time for her "makeup routine". I think that's where she routinely makes up a bunch of tit that isn't true.
She starts by expecting everyone to believe she just woke up with gigantic dark brown dots all over her face. To make it even more glaring, she made sure these fake freckles were more pronounced than ever.
After applying a bunch of makeup atop her JANUINELY VARRY REAL FRACKLES, they've gone from solid dots to smeared brown lines, because that's how freckles work.
She's also smeared on a bunch of FACKTAH FIFTEE ASS PEE AFF SONCREAM, even though it's the middle of winter and she won't be going outside. She continues her baffling trend of only applying suncream to her face, stopping at her jawline. The sun magically knows not to touch the ears, neck or any other areas of the human body, so sun cream is not required past the face, apparently. The mysteries of science!
She's back to working on the PARSSONAL STATEMENT she said she'd already finished the day before. She accidentally-on-purpose reveals that she's applying to Oxford, because she hasn't learned a damn thing and is a glutton for punishment.
She also mentions that she's started a new job in a school, but refuses to confirm what the job actually is. Apparently it involves copying the contents of her lesson plans from Google though, since that's all she seems to be doing.
Then it's time for dinner, for which she destroys a perfectly good pizza by drowning it in dripping-wet kidney beans and piling it high with olives she's shown she can't stand/it takes her 35 bites to get through one single olive thanks to her ED habits. I don't even know what the duck this is but I doubt she ate it.
After dinner, it's time for another undeclared ad for RAMMADEE KYOMYOOCHAH, SYO REFRASHING!
Back on her habit of tacking a completely unrelated video onto a vlog to pad it out, Ruby's going to tell us some of her "NYEU YEAHHS RAZZOLYEESHONS".
There's a self-deprecating disclaimer on-screen warning us to ignore the loose threads on what Ruby very generously claims to be a collar, as though she only noticed that this looked absolutely bleeping horrible while she was editing. Were her eyes not working the day she filmed this? She made this, put it on and filmed it, and at no point did she noticed that it looked like Freddy Krueger had been let loose in a fabric factory? It's been blindly hacked to bleeping shreds. Wild, drunk monkeys with a cleaver could do a better job than this. What an embarrassing disaster.
She waves her claw hands around randomly and starts rabbiting some nonsense about resolutions and drinking water and mindfulness and parroting quotes to try to make herself seem VARRY ACADAMMICK, but it was impossible to take this puddle-brained dipshit seriously before she started wearing the discarded remnants of grandma's old tablecloths, it certainly ain't happening now.
She drones on with some meandering, humble-bragging bull about how she did well at school but "didn't AWHLWHEYS GAT 100 PRUH-SANT".
Reminder: Some dumbasses are paying a school to let this fuckwit teach their children English.
Her "razzolyeeshons":
1. Gat intyoo a ragular ryootine and gat a batter noiyt ryootine.
2. Awhlwheys make toiyme fwore wroiyting.
3. Troiy tyooo gat to bad aahrliar and wake opp arrlier.
Ruby's weird obsession with morning and night routines will never die and never make sense. It's on her list every year and apparently she's never happy, even though her routine never changes according to the 3,495 routine videos she makes?
She claims to wake up super early and go to bed super early in all her vlogs, and yet now she says she doesn't? If she's not going to bed when she wakes up and waking up 3 weeks prior, it's not good enough.
She also claims she's always writing a book and now needs to resolve to write something every day? Yeah, none of her lies remotely add up.
Remember last year when Ruby set the resolution that she'd be doing lots of volunteer charity work and donating 10% of her income to needy causes? That certainly left the list as fast as she wrote it.

I think the 65 places comprise all the MSt places for separate period-specific courses (so all the way from 650-Present), but the odds are still pretty good with about 10 places per selected course. I wonder if she might apply for an MSt in English and American Studies, considering her focus on Emily Dickinson, but the programme only offers 8 places per 63 average applications per year. She'll have to pick her battles carefully since she can only apply to one Oxford course at a time, and I really can't help but wonder if her pride will get the better of her and she will submit the published Dickinson essay as a sample of her written work. Also, she'll need three academic references from people familiar with her work and academic capabilities kind of vouching for her suitability to the course ... But any way I look at it, whether she gets in or not, I think Oxford will be her downfall. I work in academia - in the humanities, no less, and it can be ruthless on so many levels and at much, much smaller-scale institutions. Looking at her Exeter years, the pressure was already getting to her and she didn't have to submit nearly as much written work as she'll have to should she get a place at her dream uni. Oxford is well-known for their constant workload of submissions throughout the notoriously short terms. Besides, being surrounded by people who are just as hard-working (if not more), just as ambitious, who have interacted critically with texts in a far greater capacity than her, and are, moreover, perfectly capable of accepting criticism and working through it to achieve a satisfying result will send her spiraling before Hilary Term.
Is she actually going to keep on doing the fake freckles as a teacher? A lot of this is going to be her playing dress up and acting or inspiring to be like Miss Honey or any other teachers that inspire the children, be that teacher that gets Christmas cards from students and be besties with them. It's good she's actually got a job and getting out of her bedroom but it feels so blizzare to me.
I wanted to gatekeep Wuthering Heights from Ruby but that failed. Now she is listening to Peter Gundry who has the best atmospheric music for reading. I can't have anything without Ruby ruining it for me
The spilled matcha irritated me and the beans on a pizza is making me feel ill...no wonder her videos don't appear in my sub box I think it's for my own good.
They also fade in winter and get more prominent in the sun, so it doesn't make sense that Ruby's freckles look clearer in January than during the heatwave.
The beans and sweetcorn on the pizza...why would she ruin a perfectly good pizza like that?! It's not just her choice of topping, but the sheer amount of them. They look as if they're weighing the pizza down lol.

you can always rely on Gossip_Guys summaries of Ruby's videos! When I saw the screenshot of Ruby holding up that mirror my first thought was that you pasted it there.
regarding sunscreen: I don't use any face cream or make up or anything but I think using a face cream with a light sun protection is okay, but I'm no expert.
does anyone of you have real freckles? I have a few around my nose, but there are not nearly as pronounced in autumn/winter as the "freckles" on Ruby's face. They are not really visible at the moment or only if you look very closely. I even have one big freckle at the front of my head and on my cheek which looks always a bit weird in summer.

Yes I forget I even have freckles until it gets to July. They're barely visible most of the year, then they emerge in summer like ''surprise, we're back!''
I'm quite freckly. I only have a few from October - March time and then they come out in the sun! And unlike Ruby's I don't just have 7 randomly dotted on one side of my nose haha. I don't get why she doesn't do them in henna or something... at least that way they wouldn't smudge?
Thoughts on new video:
- Why is she writing by candlelight? (like gossipguy said, I doubt this is even in the morning but either way...SO bad for your eyes but I guess it is for the "aesthetic").
- Undeclared ADs: 5 (or more...vaguely stopped counting)
- Why did she include the clips of her awkwardly putting a jumper on and spilling matcha?
- Her pointless timers and busy work (the Shakespeare presentation)
- Also lol at the dog running from her... dogs always know!
