some past phannie hysteria is welling up in me (i apologise) and i'm trying to decode what dan says at 2:15 (when phil throws the first batch of clothes at him). it sounds awfully like "[this was] the first relationship in your life" (he's admonishing phil after the 'twink' shade line - which was hilarious btw :lol: )

Edit: it's actually just before phil throws a coat hanger at him, my apologies
I think he says "never done a push-up in your life". Phil calls him a twunk which is twink + hunk, then there's a jumpcut and Dan says something about a push-up before getting hit in the face by a coat hanger. So I think there was twunk talk that got cut out there.

I had fear in my eyes when I saw the Dystopia Daily set and watched the ~cynical persona~ intro, but aside from that it really felt like the content I love :rainbowtears:

Notes: (it's been a while but i'm still too lazy for proper timestamps)

- Phil telling Dan he ain't really a twink anymore made me choke on my tea, I'm talking coughing up a lung with tears in my eyes wondering if this would be the end. Phil Lester is the king of comedy, joke of the year, everyone else can go home.
- Dan's zinger about Phil's poor posture was a nice attempt at leveling the playing field, but it was all for nothing.
- Dan going all whiny voice because Phil implied he didn't look good.
- I hope Phil steals the jumper from the soft boye look, it'd look great on him.
- Reminds me of when that Phil's low effort YouTube Short about Minecraft went outside the bubble last year.
- Dave. Not Dave. No, not Dave. Dave.
- "You'd accidentally pierce my other head if you threw it on a low-ball." Hawt.
- Dan calling Phil 'dad' when he needs help with something, just like when he couldn't figure out how a can opener worked. Inch resting.
- The out of context innuendos reminded me of The Wardrobe. Phil said 'come' in a very specific way there imo I'm just saying.
- Dan pretends he hasn't owned light up shoes before. Also tbf, in the 70s airline regulations weren't as strict as they are now so maybe they should belong in that era.
- He needs to be a little more slutty and pull it up but yeah Dan looks great in a skirt (though this is one ugly effing skirt wtf is that pleating?). I'm guessing this is what inspired him to get the slutty nun costume.
- The skirt might not have immediately awakened his inner whore, but the see through trousers certainly did considering he flashed Phil.
- "You look a bit Tory" somehow ends up being only Phil's second best insult towards Dan in this video. But...
- ...it was only his first politics joke 'cause he then disses Liz Truss. Spicy Political Phil!
- This what you get when you cross a furry with a girlie on TikTok doing a stupid dance. The cheese suit is still way worse btw.
- The Dan shirt and skirt combo however, is in fact worse than the Phil dress.

I'm so glad someone else is shading that horrific skirt what a letdown on a great concept

I am still surprised views are so low for such a great video - hopefully he doesn't take it (but why wouldnt he?) as feedback that similar content is not worth it on YT...!

Could most people who came back for the We're in a relationship video be feeling betrayed and have dimissed him for clickbait too hard?

This is no longer relevant but I finally got around to watching the Dodie Collab and I cannot stop laughing at her getting stuck at the end, she seems so great and I'm glad to have seen them working together

Dan was a guest on a GLAAD livestream on Instagram!

I have a hard time seeing dan accepting that invitation after the Try guys made fun of them on stage back in the day... I'd like to see Dan and Eugene sit down and have a serious conversation about rising to yiutube fame in the closet, but I think the possibility of that is small.

Try guys made of DnP? Is there any footage of that?


... okay found it. And yes, unless it is addressed I personally do not like it.

Although, Dan is quite savage when it comes to make fun of himself and he has made jokes around the ship. I do not see him having problems with it. It looks different to Shane Dawson's videos: Shane was problematic himself and it looked like he took those topics seriously, while it is clear that try guys are just acting and being purposely silly/idiots.

I'd say that Dan would be down to it if it were not for schedule conflicts or if te Try guys were to be seen as problematic

Phil Instastories from yesterday:
Why is 'Ash crying as Pikachu is enlisted' so fucking funny?

Dan's Instastories from yesterday:
I can't believe Dan's USA tour is over, the last few weeks went by so fast!

Interesting that Phil's social media presence perked up a bit as the tour got close to the finish line. Preparing to take over the kids (us) while Dan does a mini disappearance before they go off to Australia?

Here's something fun. Emma Myers, the actress who plays Enid in Wednesday, was/is a phannie! It's mentioned in this Teen Vogue article, she even went to TATINOF in 2016. SInce this news broke Dan has followed her on Instagram.

I wouldn’t be so sure. Phil said in his am I a difficult person video that he still holds grudges against youtubers that were rude and disrespectful to them back in the day and I'd argue that this was extremely disrespectful, no matter how "silly" it was. There's a big difference between Dan making the occasional joke about phan, a ship he's a part of, and people who have no connection to them getting on stage in front of thousands of people and mocking their relationship. If I was dnp I'd sure as heck be holding a grudge against them, I think there's a good reason why the circle of people they'll collab with is so small.

But who knows, maybe Dan is more forgiving.

What if Phil's used face-concealing filters or no face in all his recent posts because his next video is "I'm a Crisis Twink" and it's his blond transformation and tattoo reveal

Haha! One can hope... (maybe)

I loved the VPMO vid and now I'm major eye emoji regarding when Dan will be back. I know he mentioned some meetings in LA so maybe mid next week?? Either way, I am v excited for their reunion and whether that will bring more content.

At the Mesa show dan implied that he would spend this weekend in Vegas, so I wonder if that was a joke or if that's his last stop before heading out?

Oh I hope he did, having a Vegas weekend with the crew to celebrate the end of the tour sounds like so much fun.

I guess next week we'll be entering the Reunion Danger Zone :curlsandquiff: and we'll be on edge until we have confirmation that Dan is on english ground.

Hi, lurker here who made an account just because no one has mentioned both Dan and Phil separately talking/posting about the reality tv show The Traitors, and I can't help but think that they probably try to watch it together while being so far apart? Just something that really warmed my heart.

There was some speculation about Phil's whereabouts because he was suddenly more active on social media at sorta weird times, but I guess this story from this morning proves Phil is still in the UK. Doesn't seem to be in London though.

Yeah, I thought that was interesting as well! A few days before that Dan said that they had promised themselves to not watch more of Our Flag Means Death until he got back. I guess they really wanted to experience that show huddled together in their sofa crease, so they picked other things to long distance watch instead. Cute.

New Phil vid! It's short, but topical, cute and funny. His little laughs and character breaks made it for me.

Very interesting. It feels like a classic AmazingPhil video but with something a little off and unsettling. Which really just makes it truly oldskool AmazingPhil.

I wonder if he'll chance the title at all since AI is a bit of a buzzword lately and it might attract viewers if it's mentioned.

Totally - soon after I finished watching the video, I got a push notification from the New York Times that one of its tech podcasts just had today's episode "written" by the same AI Phil used

I really liked that video!! I love this sort of concepts for Phil. That middle part with the AI "gone wrong" gave me Black Mirror and, yes I want more of this weird-alt vibe from Phil keep it coming thank youuu

I see this AI thing as yet another trend Phil will unknowingly pioneer before it goes viral.

That AI chatbot was only released to the public a couple of weeks ago and I've seen it talked about Everywhere since, so he's really on top of the trend! I think he used it in a very Phil way and I really enjoyed his take on it. And he actually had an opinion on it, always enjoy that.

Yep, I do always love getting a morsel of an opinion. I enjoyed this too! Especially the 'Dan is a slob' bit and the intro to a porn-like story about Dan's cousin. Short, sweet, topical and erring on the strange - nice one, 'Phil' *shifty eyes*

This was a fun video! Definitely agree that the slightly unsettling vibe of it reminded me of old-school Phil videos. I'm surprised at how accurately the AI managed to make the script feel like a Phil video? Particularly enjoyed the fake plant stuff and the Dan's cousin thing. Also loved the outtakes at the end! I've been missing Phil lately and was happy to see this yesterday!

Also, I want to own that green plaid shirt he was wearing because it looks very cozy.
