What a time to be alive!

[offtopic]Guys, I think I recruited another member... a lost soul from The Site That Shall Not Be Named. I always feel so proud of myself for doing that. Doing the Lord's work! [/offtopic]

Thank you for making me laugh to the point of tears. I had a really long crap day at work and came home to an argumentative grumpy sick teen.

Bless you.

New favourite video


No, but seriously this video

Truly amazing, felucca this is a work of art!!

Loved the new videos from Dan! It's all been said already, but I loved that we got both a DINOF video for the sketches and humor, and a DINI video for the recommendations and rants. (With the bonus of us getting multiple videos!!) He also was convincing... I'm genuinely looking forward to watching some of his anime recommendations. #spon

"I ship them harder than Dan and Phil. Just kidding, that's impossible. I'm just joking by the way. No I'm not."

I take this as confirmation that Pews is 100% phan af.

Semi-seriously, he's so wildly popular that "support" from him, (however humorous - "jk, no I'm not", can do nothing but provide support for them. I've not been a Pewds fan (lbr,I barely have enough time in my life for this forum ffs) but kudos to him.
And on the topic of the the bigotry/repression/oppression/hatred members of the LBGTQ community have faced for centuries: I long for the day that we can accept people for what's in their heart, not who they love (or the color of their skin, etc.). This world is a scary place -- there are countries with death penalties for non-straight relationships. But even if someone doesn't face death or physical retribution, there can still be the risk of loss of friends/family. One of my students has been disowned by her family because of her sexual orientation. She struggles financially to get through college but there's also a deep hurt in her that is hard to describe. She's essentially an orphan, has lost her mother and her father, who just happen to live in the same town. It's heartbreaking. It's a road that that the majority of people don't ever have to walk. Things are evolving and I've seen a lot of progress over the past few decades, but we aren't there yet. Please be gentle with each other and respect people who put themselves out there, as well as those who choose not to.

On a side note, living in the good old conservative South in the USA, I have a co-worker who is gay and an atheist, and he says where we live it's easier to come out as gay than as an atheist. Sadly, that is true.

He tends to do that and I think especially since it's #spon he'll want to be apologetic or something, but I hope he fights the urge heh. I don't give any shits about anime and I enjoyed both videos because his passion for it came through and made it enjoyable. I want to see him be proud and confident instead

This!

And personally, I think it would be kinda funny if he just goes back to ing the

I know some of you haven't watch this, and I think everyone needs to enjoy fetus Dan being a pro on DDR
he was 18 years :3

Guys I tried to watch DINOF & DINI but the topic is just too foreign to me and it just flew over my head Phil's AD on the subject was easier for me to digest but I do get that Dan was more detailed on the topic hence those who understand the world will enjoy them. Love those role playing though especially

Today's animal kingdom satire is

I like how it isn't until 36 seconds into the video that the annotation appears to disclaim an issue that is present from the beginning of the video. [DAN] was still learning the whole youtube thing. That, or he just genuinely anticipated that any viewers who doubted the veracity of the video would watch the whole thing before commenting. Bless him.

I also enjoy how Dan's kept his interest in DDR all these years. I haven't played since I was 12, though I did play "Keep on Movin" enough for this entire video to be too familiar.

I'm sure everyone's aware of this already, but my exposure to phandom/fan discussion of is pretty much limited to this forum and like maybe 2 tumblr blogs, so I'm still caught by surprise on a lot of things.

Like the fact I'm watching so much shit go down on tumblr right now, all these people are getting super upset at the "sudden" notion of Dan being bi(or not straight.) Like, there's literal battles and name calling happening and "just because a guy is attracted to other guys doesn't mean he isn't straight" and a lot of logic where, it's like, I get where you're coming from and I understand the points you're trying to make, but everyone is going at it so viciously that everything is just coming off really offensive?

Idk, this is a pointless post, but it really makes me appreciate you guys at this forum more, lol.

haha, we just shifted everything to the "sociopolitical thread" (I love that thread, so thanks a lot, akui ).

lol, it's not 2012 anymore. He'll either laugh it off or pretend he has no idea what you're talking about. He knows how to handle his sexuality in the public eye now. And, he knows exactly what he's doing when he makes videos. It's not like he doesn't know he's going to get multiple messages about his sexuality in this liveshow. He knows what he's doing, and he knows how to deal with it

I've noticed this too on tumblr, and it's so tragic. D+P are 2 guys in their twenties, they don't need to be "protected" by a bunch of teenagers with a blog. I'm sure Dan knows exactly what he means when he speaks about his attraction to the male gender.

I'm only seeing the drama from a cursory angle (people I follow have reblogged posts trying to get the fandom to calm down), but your observations are interesting, pixlexia, as I've only seen people hating on the bi label because they are under the impression he is exclusively gay (as opposed to your experience, which seems to highlight those who think bi does not apply to him because he is straight).

It is all too much for me, someone who usually finds in-depth discussions about sexuality and labels very interesting. Besides the fact that for whatever intentional or non-intentional "motive" Dan is normalizing expressions of same-sex attraction, I lit-ruh-lee don't care anymore.

Oh, I've been reading that one too, dw! I'm actually all for the discussion on this topic! It's just that, in comparison, people here have actual arguments and discussions and points to make that are based off various personal experiences and worldly knowledge, rather than seemingly pulling out these passionate opinions out of nowhere that are A) close minded af, B) have next to no backing to them, and C) aren't nearly as aware of D&P history. (I think C plays a big part, actually. I'm a lot more compelled to listen if you're aware of the literal dozens of attraction examples from the past and not just this singular vid.)

Idk, seemingly people here for the most part listen to the points being made rather than going into complete critical-shut-down-mode like "how dare you try to even try to have thoughts about things." I just felt super surprised going into tumblr and seeing people having meltdowns about it, because like I said, the only real discussions I see are the ones hosted here.

(Except I guess it's ironic that I think this considering that the other thread did get a mod warning, lol)

Oooh, interesting. To be fair, I was trying to search for something by using specific keywords, so I'm sure that influenced what arguments were getting brought up on my end. Either way, people are sort of losing their chill, and as ambiguous as I try to be with my opinions on things, I'd be lying if I said I didn't find it at least a little bit entertaining. (I'm shameful, honestly.)

Also, I do feel a bit sorry for the people who have no interest in any of this sexuality discussion. It gets brought up pretty much all the time, and if you aren't the least bit interested it must just sound overdone and boring as hell. Simultaneously, I'm with all the other people interested for relatability/self-identification/just general analytical reasons, but you guys have my sympathy.

I'm curious to see whether Dan will still do a liveshow today if he knew the shitstorm going on in the phandom right now. (Which i am pretty sure he awares)

akui wrote:I'm curious to see whether Dan will still do a liveshow today if he knew the shitstorm going on in the phandom right now. (Which i am pretty sure he awares)

Of course he will do. If he don't want to answer some problematic question he can do what they always do. Ignore it

Felucca your montages are always golden. Not an easy vid to watch on a packed commuter train thoug.
There's supposed to be a (subtle) difference between watching deepee vids and gay porn but right now that's not really coming across

i mostly avoid the tumblr phandom like the plague but i'm interested to see what the hell is going on there, last i checked (when the vid came out) all i saw was people being happy about him feeling comfortable enough w his sexuality (whatever it is) to express it on a main channel video, would you mind linking me to some blogs and/or posts about it?

Just saw this on Tumblr, lmao

At this point dan could say he likes to suck dick in his spare time as a hobby and people on this Godforsaken website will still be like, “UM, let’s not assUME anything okAY?! SexualiTY can CHANGE YOU CAN BE straIGHT and still sUCK diCK”

I probably have watch this at least a gazillion time. I don't know why, but fetus Dan being pro on DDR makes me happy. And the fact that he admits (somewhere, I'm pretty sure I'm not delusional) that he cannot play as good as before makes me appreciate this video more.
