so dan's spent two years writing his own non-youtuber au fic and trying to get youtube to help him make it

Realizing Phil is planning to upload a chaotic video soon scares me...

oh fuck oh no is phil about to show an emotion on camera and will it be much deserved rage

i feel like this was everyone on my dash during that video

It’s wild to think about everything that was going on behind the scenes in Dan’s life that we didn’t know about, and how everyone continued to assume he was purposely holding things back and being indecisive, when really he was getting screwed over.

It’s also wild to think about the things he DID do just to please YouTube, and how he alsso managed to write a whole ass book in the middle of all of this.

All I can say is that I hope the one thing people take away from this is that life is messy and it doesn’t always go the way we want it to. It fucking sucks, but I hope that in the future certain drama blogs will find better things to do than to criticise people for things well out of their control.

You never know what’s going on in someone’s life.

i want to smoke weed with this bitch so bad

dan ranting for an hour and 20 minutes about hating youtube and how its ruined his life and then 5 minutes explaining why he's coming back to youtube. babygirl you are strange and offputting

ppl saying they dont know who dnp are like girl i dont thin ku are old enough to b on the internet actually

Dan: making money is my husband's job I'm just here to be pretty.

and he is CORRECT!

youtube posting those “yaaasss #gayrights” comments on dnp content over the past two years while simultaneously fucking dan over…i have to laugh or else i’ll cry

absolutely loathing youtube rn

i wonder what project of phils youtube was holding over his head to get him to upload all those shorts

dan: do I think youtube is bad and spiteful and held things I loved over my head to make me part of the capitalist machine? no! I don’t think YouTube is inherently bad!

everyone: FUCK YOUTUBE 👺🗣🔊 ME AND ALL MY HOMIES HATE YOUTUBE 🔊🔊🔊🔊

“Phil doesn’t give a fuck” well if he takes the sex toy sponsorship he will, in fact, give a literal fuck

if u see me in the comments of dans video saying i love him no u didnt

defending dan howell online isnt enough i need a gun

i think we all would have understood if both dan and phil never uploaded a video again. their fans speculated on their relationship and sexualities for years before dan was ready to share that part of himself online. they got the bag, they could have dipped. but both of then genuinely love what they do, despite being completely fucked over by “fans” who were meant to support them and the company that supposedly cared for their creators. im really happy to see them both continue as creators, because even though they both owe their audience nothing, they still enjoy creating and interacting with those os us who genuinely support them. 

Seeing Dan finally come into his own and move away from an environment that was clearly toxic makes me so happy. He’s done so much over the years to support us as fans and he loved us at our peak cringe (and still defends our peak cringe era to this day). I’d do anything to see those projects that were completely destroyed, but I might not ever be able to. I can support Dan as much as possible and I will. I hope he knows that my (our) loyalty stretches far beyond the bounds of Youtube.
