I'm frickin zazzed

Am I being dramatic when I say I think Phan is one of the cutest love stories I’ve ever seen and it’s been such a pleasure so spend so long watching their videos and laughing with them?

“Would Dan have cancelled the challenge if the shoe was on the other foot?” Y’all don’t know my man I am half convinced her knew which one was blue and which one was pink and purposefully gave Phil the penthouse because he thinks Phil deserves nice things. That is the most down bad man in the world what are you talking about.

Dan and Phil need to read “Our Wives Under the Sea”

The way Dan sometimes looks at Phil with eyes so unbelievably soft and blinks so slow like even after 16 years he can’t believe he’s there. No one fucking talk to me I can’t do this

That photo of Dan as a demon is actually the best a man has ever looked. I’m flabbergasted. Floored. He’s so pretty it’s insane

As a Chicago area native if Phil has a Chicago airport stain in his shoe, and god forbid it’s from O’Hare that shit is definitely radioactive and he needs to get rid of that shoe immediately or else he’s going to grow a 6th toe or something

Phil is so real for hating thanksgiving food that shit is GROSS

Dan’s constant “no I actively stalked you on Twitter” “I found you” “stalked an emo boy on the Internet” schtick is the most Dan Howell thing I’ve ever seen. I can’t explain any further but like this is exactly what I’d have thought he’d act like after the hard launch

Dan and Phil saying they were surprised to find out that so many people were so happy they were back making videos together. Like they forgot how much their audience loves them. Dan saying “love you” when he signed off. Then finally feeling the love they should have felt the whole time. I am not okay

Dan and Phil please buy yourselves some black tourmaline

You know what I hate that Dan thinks his entire branding is being brooding and dark and stuff. And yeah, that’s some of it but I don’t think any of us have it twisted that he can’t go goofy for goofy with Phil. Yeah he’s skeptical and has been very open about having mental health struggles and can be a bit of a pessimist but he’s also just a silly guy

I appreciate Dan so much because his continual candor and earnestness, specifically around his experience of being queer is so revolutionary. So few prominent queer people talk so plainly about what it’s really like to exist as a queer person, and he just makes me feel so seen. Sometimes I want to grab the straight people in my life by the shoulders and shake them, or scream at them until they get it. But, I know they never can. No one in my family knows what it’s like to walk through life every day with an awareness that you’re never truly safe, even if most days the awareness is small it’s never truly gone. They’ve never had to meet a new person and only have moments to decide if they’re a safe person and if it’s better to be misgendered or put yourself in a more vulnerable position. They don’t know what it’s like to know the fact you are able to make that decision makes you know you’re one of the lucky ones. They don’t know what it’s like to have the future you imagine for yourself not be a choice you make, but a court case. Or, how you know that the largest religions in the world believe you shouldn’t exist. Or what it’s like to have to make career decisions based on not being able to work in certain places. They don’t know what it’s like to live in a society and country you love but also never really be able to fully and truly be a part of it. Always watching from the sidelines wishing things were different and you could be included. But, they also don’t know what it’s like to know that if you had a choice, you would choose it all again because of your love for yourself and your community. Because your experiences of loving the people you love have gifted you empathy and an iron resolve. That simply by existing you are a part of a flourishing community full of the most magical and alive people on Earth. Because, despite the restrictions society has placed on them, they have freed themselves. The community is deeply flawed, but so passionate and mostly kind. And it’s one of the greatest things you’ve ever known. But he speaks so boldly about his experiences and his journey towards healing. I saw a post yesterday, that said among LGBT young people in the UK Dan Howell was #2 of the most influential people to helping them accept themselves. We are so fucking lucky to have him guys. So unerringly generous. To share himself and his experiences with the world, man it must take more courage than I think anyone can recognize. Even the silly bits. Anyway I have invested 12 years of my life into watching these silly little idiots and I don’t regret a second.

Been phannieing out so hard lately I’m considering getting a Dan Howell tattoo
