Ruby Granger #47 Self Learning at the University of Roobs, Manor campus

1
The thing about Culross is it's a tiny place. You might go spend an afternoon walking around, but you don't go for days. If you go on a nice summer's weekend then it's really busy or if there's tourists visiting because of Outlander, but on a week day out with that it's going to be so quiet. The fact she kept going back to the jetty it because there isn't much else there once you've walked around the couple of streets. There's a couple of cafes and a pub, but when she was there people would be at work in the day or in their houses at night.

My immediate reaction is that this didn't look like a very unique town. It looks like a basic Scottish fishing village, like the ones they used to film the original version of The Wicker Man. I don't know why she is going on and on about it being so medieval. Moments like this and her bizarre comments continue to show how sheltered she is, and how still, regardless of any travelling, she has no idea what the world is like, on any level. There was no one around in almost all the shots. Not a single person. As much as a vacation can be to get away from the world, this would creep me out, just walking around a village where no one else is. People who often isolate themselves, thinking they are safe, are actually walking into a trap. She should be more careful when travelling solo.

Another interesting note is pay attention to Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell. After having read it for days on end, dragging it every place she goes to, hugging it and claiming it to be one of her favourite reads, she makes very little progress and never even reaches near 200 pages of a book that runs over 1000 pages long, thus her claims of not liking "big books" is confirmed. It was a prop. She isn't reading it. It was her security blanket, nothing more.

Last year I read Jilly Cooper's book Riders which has 928 pages and it took me a week and a half to read it but given how little progress Ruby made on Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell in 2 and a half days given that she bought the book on her second day in Scotland it is obvious that 1. She hasn't enjoyed it and 2. She's never had any intention of reading the whole book and skim read bits of it instead.
 
WillowTree Media's confirmation statement is overdue. Has Rubles been too busy stoddying to send her accountant the receipts for her vegan haggis in Scotland?

On her video of Christmas books, the physical book list is about as predictable as you can get. The rest still lean pretty childish, in most cases, and a few that are set in winter, but overall not a particularly unique or interesting grouping. There is so much out there, including classics like Under The Greenwood Tree, by Thomas Hardy, all of Dickens' other Christmas books, The Woman in Black (ghost story told at Christmas), Turn of the Screw (another ghost story told at Christmas), and about a million others. Considering she went to Oxford for her Masters and works in a library, I would have expected far more originality in her list. You can see her type of choices anywhere. Boring Rubbish, as usual.
 
Is it just me, or is the newest video (festive books) in a crappy quality? 🤨
It does not even have the option for HD.

I can barely see her fake frecklesxD

Yup, 720p max. She's done this with a bunch of videos lately. Seems like either her or Martha keep messing up the export settings when blindly editing this crap together, but Ruby has zero desire to learn or improve at anything so it keeps happening.
 
She’s starting a new mini-series on Victorian Christmas traditions, brace yourselves for utter idiocy. The game snap-dragon and the flower by the same name are pretty much the same thing, and while every source mentions raisins in brandy, Ruby has employed ChatGPT to draw her pictures of whole ass apples and oranges on fire.

Get the popcorn and shots ready...
