didn't he cheat? I remember hearing about it somewhere... I think it was on one of the shows with Stephen Colbert or John Oliver (I always forget his name and think it's Jamie Oliver lol)It appears that she's reading The Queen's Gambitfor the first timeagain.
Any guesses on when she'll start adopting Beth's identity by pretending to be a child chess prodigy, the next Magnus Carlsen?
He accused his opponent Hans Niemann of cheating. It was more dramatic than Roobie's poetry readings.didn't he cheat? I remember hearing about it somewhere... I think it was on one of the shows with Stephen Colbert or John Oliver (I always forget his name and think it's Jamie Oliver lol)
ah than I got it wrongHe accused his opponent Hans Niemann of cheating. It was more dramatic than Roobie's poetry readings.
She had a "chess phase" in 2021, but who knows, it might come backIt appears that she's reading The Queen's Gambitfor the first timeagain.

Judging by the way the pieces are positioned on the board, she knows not even the basics about chess.

Laughing about these useless celebrity websites. The situation couldn't be further off for Ruby:

"keep track of all her hookups and exes"I know these sites are utter nonsense, but they're funny nonetheless.
As far as I can remember, someone called her out on the board not making any sense, and she replied with something about ”this is just staged for the photo, we only play chess at night”Why is she moving a black piece despite having white pawnshow is that a chess game without any piece of an opponent how is that a chess game without any king if she doesn't know basic chess rules, why doesn't she ask anyone for help to set up a realistic game why does she always think nobody else notices why am I feeling so desperate even though it shouldn't matter
Of all the things that annoy me about Ruby, her complete inability to admit when she’s wrong is probably the most irritating. She will never, ever admit that she doesn’t know something and will either ignore the criticism or come back with some daft excuse (because obviously when you play chess at night it doesn’t matter where you put the piecesAs far as I can remember, someone called her out on the board not making any sense, and she replied with something about ”this is just staged for the photo, we only play chess at night”In the dark? Where no one can see?
Yup!As far as I can remember, someone called her out on the board not making any sense, and she replied with something about ”this is just staged for the photo, we only play chess at night”In the dark? Where no one can see?
That’s why I find her irritating af. I don’t think she’s a bad person at all but omg I wish she’d just learn to hold her hands up from time to time and just say ‘yeah, I got that totally wrong, thanks for correcting me and teaching me something new’, but instead she’d rather try and defend it because she’s genuinely terrified of not being the best at everything and not being right all the time.Of all the things that annoy me about Ruby, her complete inability to admit when she’s wrong is probably the most irritating.

My favourite is when she’s pulled up for an incorrect pronunciation and she always has to respond with ‘well, I’ve heard it pronounced this way so …’. It’s hilariously annoying.

Pa Granger, dressed like a character in a Dostoevsky novel, huddles with the dog in the dark trying to keep himself safe from Mother Granger’s latest disaster and Ruby’s increasingly desperate attempts to light a candle. Mother Granger flings herself down the stairs into the swampy kitchen in her haste to sniff Pa’s tomato-soupy armpits. Meanwhile, Ruby is twirling alone in the pitch-black drawing room, playing chess against herself with anything that comes to hand - a candlestick, an unread novel, a mug of cold tea and a half-finished Master’s application. It doesn’t matter when you only play chess at night … Somewhere, there’s a half-remembered memory of another sibling. Marvin? Malvina? Millie? Who knows?I don't want to know what's going on at their house at night
She mentioned that she'd pulled it from submission, so her agent is no longer shopping it to publishers.Sorry if this has been mentioned but is there any update on her Lottie Parker book? I am excited for one of you tattle bastards to get access to it and rip it to shreds (respectfully)
Seems like she’s panicking realising producing a legitimate solid book is much more difficult than she thought so she’s flip flopping around and constantly starting over again. I think she has to realise that the chances of becoming a successful author (and being able to live off that) are slim to none, even as an individual as privileged as her. She should be focusing on exploring more stable career options and consider book writing on the side as a hobby. Even if she does have a ‘big break’ it’s more likely to be when she’s older, not fresh out of uni with no life experience.She mentioned that she'd pulled it from submission, so her agent is no longer shopping it to publishers.
She claimed it was JANUINELY not because she was unhappy with it, but because she wants to get a different book published first.
That sounds suspiciously like one of her weird and outlandish excuses that make no sense in reality. We can probably assume that months of rejection letters and/or radio silence wasn't doing her ego any favours after she'd hyped herself up for a book deal landing in her lap instantly, so she likely pulled it to spin it to herself as her choice that it didn't get bought and published.
She apparently decided to work on trying to get her Lemony Snicket knockoff book published instead, but that was about as successful from the looks of it as I think she mentioned she was rewriting it from scratch.
Seems like the applications (at least for Oxford) closed at the beginning of Jan. I’d imagine she’d be waiting a few weeks until she heard back about them.Is she supposed to know her masters results soon? She said her anxiety was bad, I assume that might be why?
