18 Ruby Rose Tweets That Prove She’s So Much More Than Just A Passing Obsession
By Kim Quindlen
Like many a basic, straight white female, I developed a completely clichéd and unoriginal crush on Ruby Rose after watching season 3 of Orange Is the New Black. But then, after I started following her on social media and reading various of her interviews, I realized she’s actually a person and not just someone I’d “go gay for.” So here are 18 of her tweets that are a great reminder of her humor, intelligence, vulnerability, and many other admirable qualities.
1. When she shut down a hater in one killer sentence.
What is ridiculous is you think anyone cares “@Altase_: You’re so ugly it’s ridiculous. @RubyRose”
