Big Bro Access @bigbroaccess.bsky.social · May 16
Okay my midnight secret thread. Will leave this one up for an hour because it is quite long and explains my whole quitting, unquitting, story.
As many of you know, I joke about quitting Big Brother updating or whatever you want to call it often. However, I did actually quit before Big Brother 24 started. I briefly mentioned it in the other place, and I think here at one point? The summer before BB24, I made the definitive decision not to return to Big Brother Access. I sent emails to people who needed them, contacted the other people who used to help with coverage to let them know I would not be writing or updating, and told them they were free to continue but would need to contact someone else. I wrote my notepad letter to all of the BBTwitter followers and was feeling pretty satisfied with my decision. Then, a friend who used to do coverage told me that they didn’t think I should quit just yet. They thought I should give it one more year. They sold me this grand dream of making things better for BB24, and they sold me on it. Therefore, I had to send new emails, contact people helping with coverage again, and pretend like there was never a notepad goodbye written. So I’ll fast forward back a little to explain why BB24 was almost the end. The only revenue I made from Big Brother coverage was site traffic, and that had been declining over the years. By BB22, the site was generating nothing (or so small might as well be nothing). Now, there are a lot of factors, including Google being the worst, that hurt site traffic. Big Brother coverage is also very competitive now with so many big sites covering it, then you have also podcasts, YouTube channels, TikTokers, and just so many ways to consume Big Brother coverage, and then bigger sites that get exclusives that smaller sites can’t compete with. This isn’t to knock any of those other sites or platforms that provide Big Brother coverage, it’s just to explain people don’t like to read as much anymore, especially if you don’t have an abundance of time to constantly be adding content to a site. I never started Big Brother coverage for the money (because that would be idiotic), but I am a normal person with a normal life. This means I have bills, I have obligations, I have friends and family, so I need money. So while doing Big Brother coverage, I also had to work my real-life job. So past seasons, I have been very stressed out trying to do all the Big Brother coverage possible and actually work to financially survive, or get by. I just wanted to have more time to make actual money to pay for things. Then the other factor is Big Brother 23 itself. I think if you paid any attention to when I talk about who I am outside of the Julie Chen logo, you know I am Black. And being a Black Big Brother fan has never been easy, especially watching the same story repeat itself time and time again. Then, feeling silenced about it because “don’t give opinions,” “you’re just an update account.” “Be neutral”, “don’t talk about race.” “You’re racist for even acknowledging race issues.” And all that jazz that some of us know too well. I was so excited to see The Cookout make this finally happen, but I could barely react because I know what would happen if I did, and the backlash and hate and blah blah blah. And as much as I have been more personal on the BB-offseason, especially over here on BBSky, I do try to be overall neutral with BB coverage. But that wasn’t the problem. The problem was that even if I stayed neutral and said nothing, people still sent their opinions to articles I post (on Twitter and FB), update tweets, etc. It was overwhelming to see that at a time when the world was really already a bit much (as it tends to be). To see so many in this community who couldn’t quite or want to understand why this moment was special and needed for so many. It was more vicious than some of you will even know because update accounts deal with so many disgruntled fans just because they think by updating, it’s open season to express their dissatisfaction with one thing or another. They just wanted to simplify The Cookout as racist because if white people did that, people would be mad (newsflash: genuinely look at so many other alliances). So combine not making anything from this and having to stress out about paying work, then having to deal with this intensity from fans all the time. I just finally did the healthy and smart thing and quit. Then un-quit.

Shelby was the Vince before Vince, in terms of being a polarizing HG that some really loved/some really hated who got off BB, barely stayed on the internet. And just living a life somewhere offline. #bbmidnightsecret
Am I alone in wondering whatever became of Shelby from BBOTT? Truly one of the more interesting houseguests ever. Her rivalry with Jason Roy was iconic. Krackel bars anyone?

Lol no worries. I mean he could have. He’s a big mystery at this point, but I just haven’t seen anything to confirm this. #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidnightsecret27

I can’t tell if this is something that Twitter just made up because I could not find any single proof of this. Also, Morgan said something today that made me think he’s still in LA, so I don’t know where this info came from. #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidnightsecret27
Waaaait idk if you answered this but I saw on twitter someone thought vinny got back with kelsey and moved back to arizona? Is that the move you were talking about or different?

I actually like the idea of types of signs against each other season. Because I am not a huge zodiac person but I do think there is some truth to people’s traits matching their sign. #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidnightsecret27
Of course Morgan is a gamer-she is a Virgo. I would love to see a BB season of Earth signs vs Fire signs. Or Water Signs vs. Air signs. The possibilities are endless. I never get when ppl expect morgan to be upset over vinces manipulation asif she was not the god of manipulation herself all im saying is morgan could've defo convinced vince if the veto plan positions were swapped. The only thing stopping her would be her morals.

I saw! I am glad she is recovering. Libra seems like such an awesome person beyond her Bb story. She seems like a super mom/wife. Hope a full recovery happens. #bbmidnightsecret
Libra from BB10 suffered a stroke, but she says she is doing better.

I would encourage gossip while staying out of it so I wouldn’t help you lol. My weakness would be my inability to pretend I like someone I don’t. I am a fix your face person. Face says it all. #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidprompt
Prompt 1: my weakness is being a gossipy ass bitch. I'm usually perceived to be bubbly and sweet, but when I'm comfortable with someone it becomes Statler and Waldorf real fast. I would need to learn how to hold my tongue

So listening to Brit’s interview/catch up today, I will say Morgan is a gamer through and through. Hearing her insight on Traitors and other BB seasons was fascinating (sub if you want to hear more/trying not to get yelled at). #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidnightsecret27
Watched Ash's video. So funny that people still try to embarrass Morgan with Vince's veto plan, like she didn't get her lick back when she forced him to put up Lauren. Only diff is her scheme worked.

I did notice Keanu looked slightly different. Training hard for The Challenge I guess. Good for him. I hope he does well. I also think he’s level-headed enough to not be changed/affected by the toxicity of the show too much/at all. #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidnightsecret27
The only big brother rookie that is confirmed for the challenge is Keanu! Have you seen how good Keanu looks he lost a lot of weight!

Okay you are giving me manipulative genius vibes. I love this! My BB strategy would always involve downplaying how much I know and giving wrong info like facts to throw off the unaware Hgs. #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidprompt
My strategy: market inefficiency. Weaponize the fact that AFP awards $50K and third place in the actual game only $10K. Get as many people as I can to crash their games on the rocks failing the marshmallow test... by noting that the last 4 AFP's were 'underdogs' who were constantly on the block.

So this is similar to my strategy. Find a meat shield because my strengths are similar to yours. However, I take stuff very seriously when I commit to it, so I also would try to train to become a secret comp beast but pull it out towards end. #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidprompt
Prompt 1: I know I wouldn't be good at physical comps or speed, so I need a meat shield. My strength is personal connections and reading people's body language. EQ and intuition has always been my thing. I want to be a Cirie to an Aras (Survivor Panama), but I'm not sentimental. Cut Aras at the end.

Prompt 2: | just finished my Medical Insurance Billing midterm. 3 hours! I got a 90% so I'm pretty stoked about that:)

I almost gave you guys too much personal info and said something that made me go oops don’t say that lol. But Meghan, without a question. I just think how the British press talks about her is horrendous. I get defensive of people who I feel have been unfairly vilified. #bbmidnightsecret
Meghan Markle or Kate Middleton and why? And you HAVE to choose.

Invisible string anon, you’re so funny. It was just a coincidence. A very funny one, but just that. #bbmidnightsecret2

Yay! Apply if it’s your dream. If you don’t make it this year, apply again. Make it happen. #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidprompt
Prompt 2: The road to BB28 starts today (Applications will start being reviewed) Time for Jesse Tannenbaum and crew to find their next Jock, Southern Belle, and more.

To be honest, I only learned this last year. But wow. Maybe one of the biggest BB success stories? #bbmidnightsecret
No one ever talks about how Jamie Kern Lima sold It Cosmetics for 1.2 Billion dollars.

I am now currently suspicious that someone may be on The Challenge. I be shocked. But want to put this out there now if suspicions are correct. No I will not say who if wrong 😆 if right, this will be my proof I was right. Don’t ask me. Keeping this one to myself. But want the I knew it if correct.

Patreon anons, I will not be posting the confessions just so I don’t get jumped by skanks. I will just generally say, yeah I don’t know what was going on with Rachel. I do not think Brit has a problem with that person. #bbmidnightsecret2

Then the people who want to go back… there is definitely some sort of madness with Big Brother HGs. I encourage people if they really want to but I tell a lot of people, yeah don’t do that 😆 . #bbmidnightsecret
The way that big brother contestants will spend half the year implying that it's an incomprehensible traumatic experience and then still encourage fans to apply is kind of funny. They're like: join us with our stalkers and insufficient therapy. Maybe you'll even get a performative friendship.

BB strategy prompt.

Good luck with that. I think there is a psychology thing that explains this. Not the bystander effect but something similar. It’s hard to go against the majority. So you would have to really convince people that they have the votes. #bbmidnightsecret #bbmidprompt
the idea is to be an independent voter all the way through and not getting rid off because of being unreliable. slight tangent, I hate the "house majority" and will push for people to vote the way they want... "building your own majority". for something conventional, the floater strategy.

We need more people not afraid to be shady to people’s face. The art of being shady but not mean is being lost. Brit has mastered it. That is all I will say.

Brit always delivers. If you’re going to invest in a sub from a former HG, recommend this one. #bbsky
