God, what a dull and crappy video. She has the innate ability to take a trip to somewhere new and potentially interesting and make it look like the most profoundly boring place on Earth.
The interesting things to see - what happened on the writing retreat, what the structure was like, what kind of people attended and what, if anything, was taught - are completely absent. There's no footage of anyone else and no evidence that she wasn't just alone and bored in a cottage for a week. It's the same old shit. She joylessly stares into space while tapping away at a keyboard. She performatively sets up a camera just to film herself walking away from it. She wanders a garden, trying (and failing) to look like the human embodiment of carefree whimsy as she grimaces away.
This video about a writing retreat contains practically no discussion of writing or the writing retreat. 95% of this video is Ruby in her bedroom giving a meandering, insincere ramble about mindful productivity.
She blathers for half the video about the power of SPYACE and the joy of LAARNING for the sake of LAAAAHRNINGGG, despite never having learned a thing herself. Case in point: Yet again, she includes footage of wind blasting the camera mic. Nothing is being said in this footage and she's overlaid music anyway, so there was no reason not to mute the source footage of wind slamming the mic, other than laziness and incompetence. She still hasn't learned how to improve at anything whatsoever, in all the years she's been alive.
She claims she's learned to use social media more mindfully now. We've heard this countless times from her and yet nothing ever changes. It's still the same bullshit: Lies to try to make herself feel and seem important or special, undeclared ads and pictures of her bedroom window are all she posts on social media. The vast majority of her videos are the exact same shit: An enlightened declaration that she's learned something or improved somehow and can now enlighten you, in turn, despite her content and her life being the same joyless, brainless, talentless assembly line of dishonesty and stupidity.
"The DADLOINES we SAT fwore oursalves are yeeshually IMAGINARY."
Yes, for you especially, Ruby. You have no writing deadlines. You have no responsibilities. This trip offered nothing that you didn't have already.
I posted this comparison of Ruby at home and Ruby on the retreat in the last thread:
And now she's confirmed that she paid to take the writer's retreat in Devon, where her parents own two cottages that she could've stayed in for free.
The cottage she paid to stay in, vs. one of the two cottages her parents own:
She blew £600-1000 on this performative trip to learn nothing and get nothing that she didn't already have for free. This wasn't some revelatory change of lifestyle and scenery. This was the same old shit in which nothing new was experienced. At least someone else profited from her stupidity this time.
It also wouldn't shock me if Ruby made her parents go to Devon to stay round the corner, like she did for the bulk of her time at Exeter.
