She’s finally learned to pronounce ’facsimile’ 
Self study- making her own curriculum LOL what?! Never heard such bull 
it’s like she’s sat at her desk playing school like a child! She seriously seriously needs to get a life
it’s like she’s sat at her desk playing school like a child! She seriously seriously needs to get a lifeRuby: "It's VARRY IMPWORETANT that we LAAAHRN FWORE LAHHRNING'S SYAKE and NWOT BE SHACKLED BOIY THEEE OPPRASSIVE RETRICTSHONS AND CURRICULUMS OF TRADITIONAL MACADEMIA!"
Also Ruby: "ALWRAYT, syo...I'm gyowing tyeuuu beeee creating a restrictive curriculum based on the exact same acadammick timetables of traditional macadamia and re-lahhring awl the things I awlraddy stoddied at univaaarsiteeeea."
It's hilarious that she's still shouting the preposterous claim that she has an insatiable passion for learning, somehow just graduated with a Masters and yet her dream "curriculum" is just rotting in her bedroom again, learning things she claimed to already know, doing primary school arts and crafts bull with stickers and mind maps.
Ruby has been banging the "OIY LOFF LAHRRNING FWORE LAAAAHRNINHG'S SYAKE! AVVERY DYAY IS A NEW ADJOOKAYSHONAL ADVANCHA!" drum for years despite displaying zero genuine interest in learning a damn thing or improving at anything she does.
She holds up her MOIND MWAP of all the things she JANUINELY wants to study during herlatest year of slobbing around her childhood bedroom, unemployed and leeching off her parents year of "independent study". She laughably claims she "NAVVAR HAD A CHRAHNCE" to learn about any of these subjects before because she wasn't taught any of it by school/univaaaarsiteeeaa.
Whatever happened to all those VARRY PRODOCKTIVE months of INDEPANDANT LAAAHRNING in your abundant spare time, Ruby? Don't tell me that was all just a lie-filled pile of imaginary busywork! (Of course it was.)
Sure enough, she shows her list and it's all stuff she's either studied at length during her time at uni, or has claimed to have researched constantly already in her spare time, like...
She shows her final curriculum and, again, it's all stuff she either has already studied at length in uni, has claimed to have learned all about before, or has written a dissertation about. The main focus is childhood, Christmas, Shakespeare, routines and the Victorian era.
Her gap year plan is just to pretend to be VARRY PRODOCTIVE AND LARRNHING ABOUT CHRARHHLDUD in her childhood bedroom, rehashing her old lecture handouts for the 794th time, continuing to learn nothing, improve at nothing and make zero effort to grow as a person.
She claims she's also put together a list of "habits" for the year. Again, it's all the same tit she always claims to do daily, like reading 50 pages and write in her JAAAHRNAL.
In the spirit of just recycling old tit and pretending it's a grand new era, she does an "OIPAD REFRASH" to change the wallpaper on her tablet.
Lo and behold, it's the exact same collection of childhood-fetishizing affectations and fictional characters whose traits she adopted as part of her fake personality in lieu of a genuine personality of her own. RWOARY GILMWOAR is included again, because Ruby's OBSASSED with GILMWOAR GAAAARHLS, despite watching the first episode and giving up.
During a copy-and-paste ad for NYORD VEE PEE ANNE, in which she rehashes all the same nonsensical, scripted blurbs she always uses to show she doesn't understand the product or what it does and never uses it herself, she delightedly mentions that Nord VPN has a "THRAT PROTACKSHON PRYO" subscription tier that can block ads. Not being forced to see ads when viewing content is, according to Ruby, "A REALLY CYOOL FEATCHA". Ironically, this video is full to the brim with undeclared ads.
It wouldn't be a make-believe return to school video without buying stationery she doesn't need. Duplicates of books she already owns, books she'll never read and stationery supplies that she already has an unused stockpile of all make the list. She drops £200 on a pair of AirPod Pros that she doesn't need (this is the same person who resorts to performative poverty all the time, complaining about how poor she is). She says she's going to drop £50 on a phone case despite having zero issues with her current case. Naturally (and suspiciously) the site she uses is Casetify, who sponsored a previous video and gifted her phone cases. This is not declared at all (big shock).
In an audacious move, Ruby goes on a rant about a stationery company, naming and shaming them while flapping her hands around with Tory Karen energy. Her complaint is that she bought some LATTAR WROYTING PAYPA from them and, to her shock and horror, the ink bled through the paper when she was writing on it.
Reminder: Ruby's stationery company's ridiculously overpriced marquee product has for many years been notorious for just falling apart, if customers even received it. It was something she refused to address until this year, when she claimed the problem was somehow "fixed" by reducing the quality even further.
In past years, Ruby swore that ink would NAVVER bleed through the paper of her planner or notebooks, despite refusing to prove this claim on video. Naturally, anything but ballpoint ink bled through. This year, she says that they've reduced the thickness of the paper but bleedthrough will JANUINELY not be a problem. She refused to show herself proving this on camera. For years she's lie about and profited from the wildly dishonest scam company her management company built for her, and she advertises it in this very video.
You might want to add 'living in glass houses' as a topic of study your fake curriculum, Rubert.

- Bird types.

- Booksharing spaces & BookTok.
- History of 'dark academia'.
- 'Tea: Social importance.'
- Letter writing.
- Wittgenstein.
- Christmas (Edwardian).
- Nonsense.
- Commonplacing.

This is so bad, the first thing she does once she is out of education is play-pretend education. Will she ever evolve over the point of a 10yo??
I wouldn't even be mad about the privilege to take months off for "self-studying" if she did anything other than playing school. For example I'd respect it if she did learn a language or some other "adult" skill during this time. But just reading random university books.. Learning for learnings sake and education is all very well, but at some point you should have at least a vague goal in mind, especially if you take a whole year off for it..
Like everytime she does a gap year I wish she would use the privilege to take one for her mental health, do some proper therapy and work on her multiple issues..

Apparently she'll be learning all this and more! Also, look at how organized she is! Of course she would be, this is her own products, very precious and meaningful to her.
The minute she mentioned she was going to "consult" her iPad, I lost it. Her imaginary friends list is growing by the second! Why is a 24yo woman, graduate from Oxford, making mind maps? Can she not think on her own without drawing it all out on paper? She is a nutcase. Since she can't attend school, this year, she is going to "play" school. omg Get her a straight jacket now. I expect she has assigned her mother to the role of head mistress. Rubbage has regressed so much in just the past few months. I can't even. The vagueness of the library job makes me think she doesn't actually have one and is only volunteering at a local library for a few hours, once a week. Unless she opened up one of those tiny Little Free Libraries in front of their lent house, and considers it a job to put books in and out of it. I wouldn't not put it past her.
I now feel like she's going to write her own essays and get her mother to 'grade' them for her xD

In response to Ruby's video, maybe I'm a little biased because I love to learn and research, I'm a writer so I'm always researching little things and I love learning new things. Maybe its my autism, who knows? I mean, I'm all for Rubster doing her own independant study, but why this whole curriculum? That's more organised than my own learning and researching... I also work and live alone so, there's that aha!
I know money isn't exactly an issue for her before I say this but...
She has zero clue on reality and how the real world works. A 3 day a week, part time job at 24? She's never worked full time in her life and now she's doing another gap year? For what?
She needs to move out and actually get a job, she's 25 next year and is still pretending she's a child genius at this age is pathetic. She has no life skills whatsoever. When will it end? Also still not learning how to drive or do anything to get any sort of independence is sad. She really needs help. This is utterly insane.
How is her family okay with her continuing to play pretend? It's just weird

Yeah, this is generally her problem with them. She learned about mind maps at the age of TWALVE and now thinks they're a vital tool to be used in all aspects of learning or creative writing.
Yet her only use for them is throwing a cluttered list of disconnected things on paper with the belief that if she puts it in a mind map form, she achieved something more productive than she actually did.
It's part of her productivity placebo checklist so she can reward herself for taking extra unnecessary steps to reach the same result, when she could've just skipped straight to writing a list in Notion.
It’s right there in the middle where all the arrows start - ”things to lahrn about”
She just throws everything in a pile and hopes it’ll look impressive to her viewers. Her mind has as much organisation as the wardrobe in which she keeps her clothes.
She’s given herself 10 hours a week to study, why not work full time like everyone else her age. Do an hour a night leisurely, then a couple hours bulk on a weekend. If it’s her hobby and passion she’d work it in, same as we all do (making time for interests - academic or not)
Hobbies around life not the other way round, the privilege 
Nothing on that mind map of topics would make her more employable, or even be things that could get brought up in regular conversation. She’s just wasting more of her life trying to be the smartest 24 year old in Year 6 primary school.

What happened to the driving lessons? Learning about the social importance of tea takes priority?
