New video! Social Distancing with ANIMAL CROSSING

Innuendo Bingo

so its currently 10:22pm where i live and everyone is asleep. i had the extremely smart idea of watching Dan and Phil play innuendo bingo and decided i wanted to join in. i literally spat e v e r y w h e r e its not even funny, but it kinda is

hi sorry to bother but what have dan and phil been doing for the past like year do they still work together and stuff? I haven't really been involved with the phandom for a long while but I still follow them on social media and it seems like they're not together as often or smth and I was just curious

long story short, dnp took a bit of a break from joint content after their tour last year. dan was having a bit of a crisis about what he wanted his online persona to be and they both found that the gaming channel wasn’t really working for them anymore. throughout last year, phil made regular content, and they both posted fairly regularly on twitter and instagram (for a lovely year wrap up of dnp in 2019, check out @fondestphan ‘s new gif series here, its lovely).

in june 2019, both dan and phil came out as gay, and everything sort of started to make more sense. dan was mia cause he was working on this massive project, and joint content has become more rare partly because of the aforementioned gaming channel issue, and partly because (at least I think) they don’t want to be branded as Dan and Phil any more. they’re just dan and phil.

both dnp have talked about how theyre working a lot on individual projects outside of youtube. they still live together, they are still a couple (so surprise! if you didnt know that lol), they have a fish (his name is norman). they still work together on things (dan was in one of phil’s videos, they’re still doing fan stuff together, etc.) i think rn theyre still trying to figure out what it means to be out, and what that means for how they interact publically together. phil is making some hilarious solo content as well as some secret projects, and dan has also talked about some pitches and writing that he has been working on. they’re in eachother’s personal lives, and occasionally they let us see into that.

i do hope (and also believe) that joint content in some form will return, but idk what that will be yet. they have stated multiple times that they love working together, and they clearly work well together and people clearly like it. right now im just happy for them, and excited to see what comes next :)

tldr: they’re happy and in love and working on cool stuff even if we don’t see that cool stuff right now and even if that cool stuff isn’t together

its 10:34 at night, i am now snorting and cry-laughing silently because this man is a comical genius

want to know where the hell i was for the first half of this year? this is the story of the time i failed to run a marathon

The season for baring your soul.

Hello everyone. 

Preface for the blog: Tonight I proudly present what for the time being is my penultimate drop. Whilst for many online personalities designing merch is a valid creative project all on its own, as someone who is known principally for their comedy content I personally feel like my merch should more often be in support of the other things I make (don’t want to go full Rihanna lmao no shade). There was an exciting project I’ve long been working on, originally planned to release this October, but sometimes things don’t go as ideally planned (c’est la vie) so these last two collections in the making many moons ago will be my last for now. However I am particularly passionate about these new things, having worked on some for almost two years and I hope they can bring you as much joy as they did to me creating them.

As the nights grow longer along with the clothing we wrap around ourselves, I introduce three treasured items to help you embrace your inner truth - the MY SOUL collection.

MY SOUL Black Hoodie Dress

A super-long black hoodie with black embroidery. A statement to share your spirit with the world. Functions as an oversized layer or a dress by itself - with hidden pockets for convenience.

MY SOUL Nail Polish

Pure Matte Black nail polish. If it isn’t so dark it absorbs light, it isn’t right.

MY SOUL Scented Candle

A black scented candle in black glass in a black box - with notes of dark spices, amber and wood. The comforting aroma of the hole where your heart should be.

However you spend these dark days I hope these items satiate your spirit and that you are well. I hope to share more of myself and good news with you all soon. Thank you.

- Dan
