Ruby had liked it. I get a fair amount of stuff she'd liked across my reels, but this one seemed a bit different? Idk. Are we going to get an ice bath influencer era?

She's been back at AWKSWFUD for 5 minutes and already she's overcompensating and desperately trying to convince people that she's being VARRY BUSY AND VARRY PRODOCKTIVE AND IS VARRY SPASHOL AND IS JANUINELY HAVING A WONDERFOL TOIYME!

She's uploaded a 'day in my life' slideshow on TikTok and soundtracked it with that Harry Potter audio about Hermione attending multiple classes at once. Because she'd love for you to associate her with HARMIONEEE AT HOGWAHHHRTS again and would love for you to believe that she's getting 2-4 times the amount of work as a normal person done in one day.

She's VARRY PRODOCKTIVE, JANUINELY! She's not just struggling with the base workload at Oxford and ABSYOLTOOOTLEEEE hasn't spent years staging vlogs and stitching together footage from multiple days to appear busier than other people, HOW DAEHHR YEEUUUUU.

Ruby joined the Oxford Bibliographic Society.

Untitled4565678778909545867 - Copy.png


She insists that she signed up as soon as she started at Oxford "OFFCWOARSE". She believes we're expected to make the most favourable assumptions about Ruby based on nothing whatsoever. Ruby spent her entire time at Exeter avoiding all extracurriculars, social events and the library, so I'm not sure why anyone would assume that she "OFFCWOARSEEE" joined up for anything at Oxford. She's also never mentioned it before.

It's good if she's actually joined some clubs instead of holing up in her room between trips back home to mummy, but Ruby never seems to do well in situations where she can't be the smartest person in the room. She has almost no hope of that in the real world, much less in a room full of Oxford Masters students.

Her 'Hide the Pain Harold' grimace is out, so it's a given that Ruby spent the whole meeting getting effortlessly upstaged by everyone who had intelligent things to say or more than one brain cell.

Untitled456567877890980545867 - Copy.png


After some performative activism in her comments where she assured her fans that she's totally boycotting Starbucks and only went there because PRAT was closed (clearly unaware that Pret was also being boycotted for similar reasons) and would NAVVER DYEU SOCH A THING AVVER AGANN, Ruby's teeheeing about accidentally going to PRAT for a coffee (despite not liking coffee).

Sorry, everyone, if that social activism she was pretending to do means she can't go to Pret to choke down coffee she doesn't like just to cling to another personality trait substitute and desperately chase a sponsor deal, then you can count her out.

Untitled456567877890988080545867 - Copy.png


Ruby has a 6,000 word essay due in 10 weeks. Still no mention of the results of her first essay, so it's a given that she got a disappointing grade or she'd have shoehorned that into a video.

Untitled456567545867 - Copy.png


After JANUINELY studying manuscripts for 3 hours (there sure is a lot of daylight in Ruby's winter days) the half-hearted grimace is back. She's HONNASTLEEE not feeling completely out of her depth.

Untitled45656787789098808079895489805867 - Copy.png


Then it's time to meet her unwitting Blakeney replacement, Holly, so Ruby can pretend to enjoy a bubble tea and ask her some casual friendly questions like, "What is a catechism and what would you put in a 6,000 word essay about them?"

Untitled4565678778909880807989545867 - Copy.png


Then it's time for a late lecture. Ruby "HONNASTLEEE" loves this lecture series and JANUINELY doesn't feel completely lost. If Ruby goes out of her way to say that she "honestly" or "genuinely" anything, it's a given that it's a lie.

And over on Insta...

"this was mine if you couldn't guess 🙌"

Continuing the "you should AWLWHEYS make complimentary assumptions about me based on nothing at all" trend, Ruby believes that everyone should've already assumed that if there's vegan food about, that's Ruby's. Because she's VARRY MOCH VEGAN. Aside from all the leather and wool products she buys and wears, all the non-vegan foods she eats and all the tested-on-animals stuff she happily buys and advertises.

At this point I'd be more likely to assume she had a bacon and veal sandwich than a vegan lunch.

No but the point is her company is Pumpkin and people have been noticing her using the Daunt bag and asking which to get 😂

I don’t know what the Oxford Bibliographic Society was up to last week, but the Oxford BibliographicAL society had this on:

Roobee makes it sound like she gave a speech on social media use (”I was talking with them about social media use” is a very odd way of expressing that you had a casual conversation) so, idk, maybe she saw they were meeting at Jesus, saw the opportunity and hijacked it? 😂 Or is she perhaps just trying to make herself sound important again? 🤔

Oxford must be a truly magical place if she can go to a meeting that ends at 4, get coffee, spend 3 hours running her nasty grubby hands over some old Catechisms, and it’s still daylight when she gets out between 7 and 8, when the sun has set before 4:30.

Well, not to defend them but apparently some other people are making a stupid cup their whole persona so... And we still have Apple users who acts like that too.

I'd wager it's the latter considering how much she loves to embellish ordinary tasks and plans into hugely important feats of productivity when she's feeling inadequate.

She even shows the workshop on her agenda for the day, so it was definitely that she went to and not some pre-arranged meeting/guest lecture like she makes out.

She no doubt thought it was more impressive to make tit up and turn herself into an expert advisor at a time when her ego's taking a beating.

Sorry what is this commonplace book she keeps talking about? Is it just a posh way of saying 'notebook'?

Edit: I looked it up. It sounds like a pretentious way of just saying notebook 🫣

P.s. I know we can enjoy different literary genres, but I am not buying that Ruby enjoys mostly boarding school related YA then randomly Crime and Punishment. I think the latter is just to impress us.

A commonplace book for most people is a notebook where you note down interesting things. For Roobee, it's another avenue of performative productivity, where she first writes down quotes on post-it notes and then spends time every evening copying those out into her notebook.

I'm reading a book on notebooks at the moment (it's called The Notebook: A History of Thinking on Paper) and it's super interesting, but let's face it, Roobee is probably not amassing a whole handbook of information on 15th century navigation, or sketching out inventions, or even creating a manuscript collection of important works of fiction. She's just copying out quotes she's underlined in a book she's pretending to read and writing up "vocab words" to misuse in upcoming videos.

Ha, it says vlog on her to do list. Scenario: Roobs attends an event organised by the Oxford Bibliographical Society for the first time, since she doesn’t have to go out of her way to attend it, whips out her vlogging camera in hopes of low-effort content, a conversation on social media use and boundaries ensues 😂
