That picture is terrifying. I know she’s going for twee but it’s giving low-budget horror film.

She doesn't know crap. Fairy rings are made of mushrooms, not candles, and you don't step inside them or you get whisked away to Faerie. She is getting freakier by the minute. She will be in a straight jacket by the end of 2025 and whisked away to Bedlam where she can live out the rest of her life in Victorian fantasies. What is next? A scene from Carrie, so she can reap revenge on all who bully her? Geez, girl. You are cracked.

Imagine if her neighbours have kids?

'Mummy! That strange woman child is out there in the gardens again. She's standing in a ring of tea lights? She's looking at us Mummy, I'm scared!'

Has anybody consider that at this point she might be rage baiting ?

Sometimes she reminds me of that "my toddler asked for some milk so I raised a cow from scratch" woman, the way she exaggerates certain things that get brought up a lot, like mispronouncing words, the weird time skips, outfits in general, contradicting herself, whatever she's doing in the garden at night... but most of the time she seems so clueless and awkward, I just can't believe it's all caculated.

Some things I believe she is doing on purpose. We know she reads here. She can't stop. For as long as she is active in social media she will be targeted and will always be wondering what people say. So, yes, rage baiting. At the same time, she is equally off her rocker and comes up with original bizarre, off the rails crap that even none of us could have guessed was coming. Other things, like dwelling on being bullied, dressing ridiculous, play acting, messy home, etc., are ingrained in their life and just another example of how wacked her whole family is. The lack of decorating the inside of their home, not cleaning the kitchen, dead and messy garden. There is no excuse for any of this. Husband doesn't care, wife is busy finding herself at the bottom of a bottle, one daughter rebels, another refuses to grow up. The whole situation is so toxic. Anything but a soothing aesthetic of any kind, unless you are a friend to misery. Who in their right mind gets a master's at Oxford and spends their second gap year rage baiting as a hobby? Only Rubbage.

I’d quite like to think she’s rage-baiting but I genuinely think she’s oblivious and she really thinks that she’s posting aesthetic content rather than stuff that looks like the slow unravelling of her sanity. I’ve always had the impression that Ruby and Martha have perhaps been praised a little too much for any endeavour and they genuinely think that what they’re putting out there is good has artistic (or academic) merit. There’s just no self-awareness there in either Ruby’s or the Pumpkin Productivity content and I just think that they really believe that they’re so good already they don’t have to out any effort in.

I'm sort of amused though because in traditional folklore they're usually portents of doom
Much like our Rubes

Yeah, this is where I land on it.

Her persona and her content is calculated as far as she thinks it'll make her appear highly intelligent, productive and worthy of envy. But she's just too lazy and incompetent to pull off the act, so there's constant editing flubs, malapropisms, general mistakes and bizarre moments of strange behaviour like her regular backyard insanity.

She desperately wants to be seen as the world's smartest child genius, but her main point of reference for that is HARRMOYONEEE GRAYJNAAA. She desperately want to be seen as being NWOT LOIKE OTHA GARRLLS, but her benchmark for that is just cottagecore content and The Secret Garden.

She knows how to copy things, but not how to do it well. She knows how to lie, but doesn't know how to maintain a convincing lie. So we get her desperately trying to sound naturally like Hermione with her ludicrously mangled Emma Watson accent while she grimaces and twirls through her bombsite of a yard, sloppily imitating whatever poem she heard in a lecture, all in a vlog full of fakery, lies and technical ineptitude.

I don't believe she's intentionally making unhinged, crappy content to get a reaction, she just has no talent or awareness for what good, aesthetically-pleasing content is or how to make it. So she just does a really bad job of imitating other things she's seen and it comes off as completely forced and alien.

She's been rehashing the same handful of bad videos with zero improvement in quality, but gets so much praise from mummy and her fans regardless of how inept and stilted her content is that she can just choose to believe that she's doing a great job and anyone who says otherwise is just a bully.

And she's still trying to rope a few people in with her undated hardback planner false advertising.

The sheer audacity of this particular scam still astounds me.

It still has "Yearly Planner" on the cover, even though there's only a 6 month planner inside.

And she's still calling it an "every day planner" even though her flimsy cover defence for it missing 50% of its pages is that it's "designed for people who don't necessarily use a planner every day".

Shameless.

The planner description says by popular request they've made the pages thinner?? who's requesting that. Also they've increased shipping costs from £3 to £3.50 as of today, so unless they were losing money on shipping previously, they're going to be making a profit on shipping fees.
