Grant tweets: "Happy Bi Visibility Day! I'm bi. It's my sincere hope, today and every day, that we as a community will one day succeed in our shared goal of turning everyone into bisexuals." That's kind of a perfect tweet. It's almost unfair to judge these as actual sentiments, because he's just trying to be funny and provocative, and they're all kind of similar. Like, something that is seemingly universal and accessible, with something absolutely unpalatable to the out-group or whoever is being offended here. But this is a perfect tweet, to me. And I think everyone should be more open and experimental and less judgemental. I'd say 11 here, but our scale only goes to 10, so 10. Are you keeping your score? You're meant to be.
Uh oh, did I miss one? There's only 9, which seems wrong...
Someone will tell me, I'm sure.
That's a 53 (/90) total from me. What does it mean?
Idk. What was your score? Maybe we can figure something macro out in the aggregate 🤓
#Dropout
Grant's #Twitter game is strong, tho. Impressive.
#lol
Grant tweets: "The only people I relate to on any level emotionally are ones who took Accutane as kids." Huh! I don't know what to make of this one. I took Accutane! It was awful, but my acne was arguably much worse. So I think he'd relate to me. But that sentiment makes zero sense to me, lol. I relate to people pretty much irrespective of whether they took Accutane or didn't, so... I think that's weirdly a 2 from me, someone who took Accutane growing up.
HOT TAKE! Now we're getting to the good ones, lol. Grant tweets: "The most boring people in the whole world? Dog owners, and it's not close." INCENDIARY! I actually hate the term "dog-owner," which hits my ear like, "people-owner," because dogs are people, but I do get what he's saying. I disagree, though! I'm ALL OVER #DogSky constantly, and I love dogs and their human-friends that love them back. What a wild take, but I love that he said it. Still, that's a 1 from me.
Grant tweets: "My Spotify Wrapped said, 'You use casual intimacy as a crutch, bc your avoidant tendencies make you afraid to open up to emotional partners, so you meet those needs in other ways.'" An objectively funny tweet and spin on the Spotify Wrapped stuff people are always doing around this time of year, but that's not remotely what mine would say. I'm always hurtling headlong into a relationship, whether I ought to be or not, and I'm more hyper-fixated on my The One, whoever that happens to be. So that's probably a 2 from me? I don't vehemently disagree; it just doesn't describe me at all.
Wow! Really getting a sense for Grant, here. He tweets: "Happy Pride to all of my queer family, except for the ones that grew up rich," with three pride flags. I think that Grant completes a wholesome, genuine thought, and then has a moment of panic that it won't offend or upset anyone, and I have to be honest, I'm the same way. Like, it isn't ready to post until it's going to upset some people. I feel that. I technically grew up with wealthy parents, though I never saw a dime of it and left when I was 16. I guess I thoroughly resent anyone in the 1%, so... hm... I'll call this a 6? I don't quite know what to make of this one, because it's not something to agree with or disagree with, so much as it is a broadly-adoptable statement with a barb that's going to hurt some people that deserve it built into it. I respect the craft, but this isn't the hill I'd die on. Again, 6 for me.
Thinking #dog people are boring is my only 1. Obv. I'm all over #DogSky constantly, aren't I? I love #dogs and their human-friends that love them back. The best!
Accutane and Spotify Wrapped also get a 2. #Bi Visibility, Halloween Parties & Big News/Bragging 2x are all 10s, though.
#Dropout #lol
Huh! Grant tweets: "The best flavor? Fruit Punch," at 4:20 pm. I'm wildly in favor of smoking weed, but fruit punch is mid. That's a 4 from me here.
Grant tweets: "People who tweet, 'Can't say anything yet, but big news coming...' are bragging twice." That's an obvious 10, and I wish I'd tweeted it. All 7 contestants gave this a 10, as well, and one even said, "10, and put them to death," lol. This is universally agreed to be a good sentiment and thought, it seems.
Okay! Grant tweets: "Halloween parties are great if you like parties, but wish they had homework." AMEN! That's another 10 from me, baby. Grant and I are NOT each others' types, but I think we have similar social-media wavelengths.
This one is interesting... Grant tweets: "If you eat in a restaurant, your waiter could set you on fire on purpose and you still have to tip them 20% minimum. It's simply non-negotiable." I guess... I have not eaten out in almost, like, a decade? It's been a while since I've had a steady, decent writing job, and I'm fairly frugal. I guess this is an 8 or so, for me? I agree with the sentiment, but the hyperbolic edges of it lose me somewhat. 8. Lock it in.
Indulge me:
I think we should all play along to the #Dropout #TheBachelor Grant O'Brien #Tweet minigame (judge Grant's #tweets by relatability, 1-10: 1 being vehemently disagree, 10 being wholeheartedly agree).
Check the #alttext for my answers. Keep score as you go, and we'll tally at the end.
Yeesh, it didn't sound good when he said it, but I for sure feel it. "If there's one thing that flatters me, it's constant attention," which he says while giving a CHEMISTRY ROSE to a literal STALKER (who seems lovely, but has made a series of TikToks announcing her intention to date Grant). Like him, that red-flaggy behavior would not only not turn me off, I'd be super intrigued by it. It can't be either of our best qualities, Grant or me.
"If there's one thing that flatters me, it's constant attention."

Whew! I wish I didn't relate to that so hard 😅

#Dropout Launches First Animated Series, #Toonout: comedy streaming platform, formerly known as CollegeHumor, expands into scripted #animation with the shortform series, featuring 25 episodes rolling out through February 2027. https://bit.ly/4rp8JLJ #AdultAnimation #AnimationWorld
This is an incredible arc of Game Changer, the Season 5 Survivor challenge thing. Battle Royale, I think they called it.
And, as usual, in a cast absolutely stacked with people I adore, Vic Michaelis emerges as a clear favorite. Vic is next-level.
Vic Michaelis, speaking as though for moi:
"Do I come off a little strong? No, I don't think so. I think I come off perfect."

Jacob Wysocki figures the way to charm Mrs. Reich (does she go by that? Claire) is to tell her how much his relationship to Sam has meant to him, and I am fully weeping. Sam appears to have teared up, too, and Jacob is well into the emotion of it. So sweet and moving!!
Omg I am sobbing 😭

I think what I'd really like is a skills-table-like flowchart of #Dimension20 seasons and their prerequisites, because I've been holding off on the live shows because it's not always clear to me how up to date on previous seasons I need to be to enjoy them. #Dropout #DropoutTV

Unironically how I had to hype myself up for today’s bullshit. #youarearegularguy #dropout
Having now seen it, #TheRookie #Dropout #GameChanger crossover was bad purely from a business perspective. The show made the Dropout guest stars look like a bunch of people who I would never want to watch again. There's no way this helped expand their audience.
