Ruby Barker is a QUEEN and here's why:
Tumblr media
Watch the 3 part video in the whole thread before clicking on Read More for my thoughts!
Also some context: Some idiot really paid her on Cameo to say Pen was right and Marina was wrong. She took his money and gave us this masterpiece with receipts and clearing him!
First off I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that she took his money and ran as she should. I was initially sad she wasn't gonna be in S3 and won't be getting grovel from Pen. Now it means she's off contract and she can officially speak up and gave us this amazing video
It's the way she's validating every single thing I've been saying on this blog ever since Marina got screwed over. Girlie came in and laid down the law I love it
My fave quotes:
"[Pen] is snide and snakey"
"You can't Disneyify a dickhead"
"Go get a Cameo from Nicola if you want an alternative point of view"
"Anyone who thinks otherwise of this, is kidding themselves"
Then to end off with: "Remember it's a TV show, it's not that deep" QUEEEN SHIT
I am SO fucking glad she's speaking up about this after NC being a dickhead abt Marina on her socials and driving her fans to hate on Ruby the last few years. So glad she's feels free and safe enough to talk about this now

Mental health is such a delicate topic.
In the US, employers are bound by HIPPA laws. Most employer medical plans do offer employees mental health services.
Not sure how things are handled in the UK.
I also suspect contracts and union agreements come into play as well, regarding benefits.
This story is getting traction.
I hope, for Ruby’s sake, she is prepared for the backlash, because I am already seeing it.
Please take care of yourselves, if you are experiencing mental health issues.
The internet is a toxic place. Be mindful.

Thinking back to a previous post that I made in regards to "weird" things in the fandom (e.g. hating on an actor for playing a character in a love triangle, making it seem like your ship is more important than a real life person), and as I watch Ruby Barker's three part videos on Twitter I see my point is proven, again. I'm happy that she not only spoke her truth but also called out how a fan literally paid her to say Marina was wrong and Penelope was right. Like I can't make this up. Mind you, some of these same fans sent Ruby so much hate as well, over a damn tv show. These are not some silly arguments had within fandom when it reaches this point, nor should it ever reach this point.

Women of colour in the Bridgerton fandom + the actresses receive so much hate and it's so tiring. the antibrown and blackness in this fandom is insane - noticed some come from fans who baby the white characters and like to turn the characters of colour into character villains or hypersexualise or fetishize.

have you seen this article? Figures netflix and shondaland wouldn't care when Ruby was going through mental health issues.
https://deadline.com/2023/10/bridgerton-ruby-barker-calls-out-netflix-shondaland-psychotic-breaks-1235587834/
I've attached the link below for anyone who wants to read. I had not seen this; obviously I'd been following along when Ruby talked about her mental health issues stemming from the show and not being on season 3 but I feel like this confirms a lot of what I was wondering, namely, Ruby connects the circumstances her character Marina goes through (she says Marina is "very alienated, very ostracized, on her own under these horrible circumstances" which.... yeah, who the hell thought this was a good idea in terms of plot or sensitivity?) to her own mental health struggles and says she was deteriorating as a result. I think it's horrific that despite this, no one from Shondaland or Netflix reached out and checked in on her when she suffered two psychotic breaks, and Ruby was put in the shitty position of having to keep quiet about the entire situation to avoid losing out on future jobs or interfere with Bridgerton promotion.
Honestly... between what we know of the people in charge of this show and this fandom which heaped loads of abuse on Ruby and other people of color (the number of blithe posts I STILL see on this website about waiting for Marina to kill herself... is insane, and the comments sections in the couple articles I read about this were similarly brutal; like, just because a workplace isn't "legally obligated" to reach out to someone struggling with mental health issues, it doesn't mean they shouldn't, and instead of people going "if I didn't get support, neither should you", we should be all be asking for better support), I'm not surprised in the least, and that just feels disappointing because three years ago there was so much hope for this show being the "new frontier" in racially diverse casting and bringing historical romances on television but all that's basically shot to pieces now.

So in case it hasn't already been clear for the last 100+ days, these networks and production companies do not give a crap about their actors or any if their other employees. Fuck Shondaland. And Fuck Netflix in paticular. I'm so proud of Ruby for speaking out.
And what sucks is that while SAG AFTRA is very likely going to get most of what they deserve and most of they've been fighting for at some point, the actors outside of the SAG union that Netflix and these other streamers employ- like Ruby and other members of Equity- are likely not going to get the same same treatment. These studios will continue to take advantage and cut corners where they can.

All the words wasted trying to explain why Penelope did wrong, and why she's a flawed character which can't be ignored, only for Ruby Barker to sum it up in a sentence.
"You can't Disney-fy a dickhead!"
