I agree! But like...what the fuck is he wearing on his legs, seriously. A two piece sweat suit thing? A jumpsuit? A t shirt dress and leggings? I am confused and I want answers.

According to op, gray shorts

Edit: so this is how it feels to be top of the page...

It's always going to get back to someone, and even if it's an offhand comment, it makes you look unprofessional as fuck to the people who care.

wait ik the BONCAS are SO 2016 LOL but what was the whole mic situation? i vaguely recollect something but boiiii that night hits SOOO different... I really got an impression that night that dan talks about phil so much more than phil talks about dan but phil literally calling dan up on stage... deppy is something really special...

anyways ik this is old n stuff but i seriously don’t remember what happened please halp!!!

[15:05] should explain it ...

DnP have been pretty quiet other than their posts this morning. I hope we get some posts tonight but am wondering if they are already in Vegas.

Also how do the hotels work with vidcon? Do they have to get their own rooms after the con? It looks like the person that posted the photo mentioned the hotel in the comments so hoping they already checked out

The featured creators are all in one hotel at vidcon and you need credentials to enter (actual barrier with security around the hotel) - it’s obvious which hotel it is so that isn’t news - and vidcon today is “Disneyland day” so Vidcon is still covering creators hotels, usually they can ask for tonight if they want (or negotiate for more days if they are coveted by vidcon like DNP since most creators don’t get paid just the trip covered and a per diem.) I assume they are leaving tomorrow or this afternoon for Vegas.

(Cornelia and Martyn looked dead on their feet when I saw them in the industry/creator lounge yesterday afternoon and that was before the expo hall even was closed down so I hope they have a nap before driving.)

so I really have no point or conclusion to this post, but I was just watching dan's talk at the vidcon night of awesome thing, and decided to look up the date of the london marathon because I am constantly craving facts and was curious where this fell into the timeline of the year lol (was mostly curious how long ago the marathon was because the talk about it on idb seemed pretty fresh in my mind, but it also seemed like long ago enough that dan had some time to find the humour and lesson in it.).

Anyways, the London Marathon happened on April 28th 2019. So, that sated my curiosity of it actually being a couple months. But then I was like hmm isn't that really close to Easter? So I looked that up, and yes, Easter was April 21st 2019. And in "Basically I'm Gay", Dan writes in the email about wanting to tell his family he was gay at certain times, including "last Easter Sunday".

So, what I'm getting at is the Marathon thing and the coming out email to his family happened very close to each other, within a few days probably. For one, I'm thinking what an emotionally difficult week (or so) that would have been for Dan, and I'm proud of him for dealing with two pretty major things at once (obvs the coming out was more major for him, but the marathon thing was obviously a big deal too). Second, I'm wondering which actually came first, the coming out or the marathon dropping out. And third, in the same vein, I'm wondering if one thing sort of helped or pushed the other - like for instance, if he dropped out of the marathon first and went through this fairly emotional thing of telling his family (and friends) about that and receiving the support and also being a bit emotionally drained in general and all that, I'm wondering if that sort of pushed him to just send that email coming out to his family in a way?

I don't know, these aren't well-formed thoughts (I stopped the vidcon video partway to come type this out), but I was just having some thoughts about the timing of these two events being so close together and wanted to share some musings and see if anyone else has opinions on this.

Me and a few of my friends were talking about this on twitter dms actually. The general consensus we ended up reaching is that dropping out of the marathon came first.

My personal opinion is that dropping out of the marathon, and the support received on that, definitely did play a role in helping him come out. (I actually came out to my more distant family via text. After all the support I had received for an earlier accomplishment; I felt that most of them would still support me. I was also too emotionally drained to think about what I was doing before I hit send ^^".) Emotional moments usually help someone along in coming out.

wait I also just remembered, did you guys hear about the person who stole the cutout of Phil. Honestly I think it was one of the Greens or Dan. Who else could get away with it?

autumnhearth wrote: Sun Jul 14, 2019 4:16 pm Last night I was wondering why D&P like Vegas enough to go a third time. At first it seems very not them, but once I thought about it, it kinda makes sense. Phil loves playing for prizes, there’s alcohol, buffets, shows and sexy entertainment (though Dan has said he hates the open options at a buffet and actually converted Phil to his side in the space of a min, come on Phil stand your ground! Plus they’ll undoubtedly go to fancy restaurants instead). I’ve only been once as a pre-teen with my parents just as an overnight stop between national parks, so I only got to enjoy a buffet and a walk down the strip. Still of all the places to travel in the world or even the states, that just doesn’t make the list for me. I wouldn’t mind catching Cirque du Soleil sometime when it’s traveling though. They went once didn’t they?

As someone who actually lives in vegas, I could see how it is fun to go every couple of years. There is (in most cases) always something new. In the past two years alone, we've gotten a new arena, one of the casinos just opened a huge esports lounge, way too many new restaurants, stuff like that. Even though I don't expect deppy to leave the radius of the strip and do anything super active, there are a bunch of great hiking trails too!! Vegas is more than gambling and shows lol

Omg you live in Las Vegas?! What's that like? Sorry to be so off topic but I am SO curious about Las Vegas and wanna go so bad; it seems like such a wild wonderland that I can't even imagine people living their casual daily lives there

(Hi returning from my long silence)

I live just outside of Vegas but I graduated from UNLV (the university). Once you’re off the strip it’s basically like any other major city, but Vegas is actually getting a lot right now so it’s really nice to live there with the new arena and soon to be new stadiums. What sets Vegas apart though from other big cities I think is how spaced out it really is, the strip is the only part that is really packed in, I think the best perk of living in Vegas is getting the option of going to the strip literally whenever you want, I liked to go sometimes and spend nothing, just go walk around and people watch. I lived less than a mile away from the strip so you can catch a bus to avoid parking fees and just go wild, it was the best when just moving away from home for the first time at 18 lmao

(also hi to my fellow Las Vegas Phans )

It's the first time I'm attempting this sharing thing but looks like someone is heading to Vegas already!
I'm very excited, didn't think we were going to get news so early.

sounds like vidcon needs better moderators next year! phil's sounds like she was really unprepared and miles mckenna was on an lgbt panel where the moderator used wrong pronouns AND deadnamed him. like wtf?

i hope dan and phil have a good time in nevada. i'm so curious what they're up to.

His replies are intresting. As always. (I'm out of touch with bbcode so please excuse my errors ^^") (Phil there is a creepy thing in your Airbnb, is now REALLY the time for snacks?)

i’m surprised too! i suppose it’s not exactly an identifying characteristic (tho i do feel like phandom has done more with fewer information.) it just surprised me he’d share it. also not at all imagining cuddles and snacks underneath it absolutely that is not a thing i’m doing

Phil and Natalie just started following Each other on twitter so I wonder if they did get a chance to meet her

at this point i'm far from surprised. phil did state his preferred platform is twitter (if i'm correct it was in the qna qngay). the phandom will probably have 2 to 3 nights to find this place. we are good, but i doubt we could do it in under a week. literally me too. i wonder if they'll watch a movie.

I wonder if they’re actually at their final destination yet or if the road trip they’re taking is the more meandering ‘stop in a couple different places to do things and then go to a different place’ type. LA to Vegas is only a few hours if that’s where they’re going, but if they wanted to see other stuff in between they might not be in that spot past tonight.

these make my heart squeeze for some reason (a. he’s beautiful and that color is terrific on him but b. something in his expression reads happy and calm and lovely and maybe i’m projecting but new favorite phil picture)

(mods i dunno how to post both?? help? i’m such a noob)

Dad is that you??

I'm kiddinggg lilac looks nice on you Phil!!! Kudos to your photographer always getting the best angles
He's also in Dan's story IDK how to link that though.



Edit ..Umm can you delete? I messed up sorry

Good batch of delayed posts big fan of the phil instagram photos, but when am i not?
edit: y'all beat me to the ig post but whatever, so nice you have to see it twice

Those are some very soft and muted colors for Phil's usual aesthetic!

You think Dan just saw the perfect rock formation out the window and shouted STOP THE CAR for this photoshoot? I'm not complaining.

I dunno if Nevada is very different from California in earthquake risk, but the thought of that bony spikey thing above the bed is making me twitch.

I think I died and went to lilac heaven. He's so soft ugh he's pretty and so confident like he knows he's a king.

Honestly, I unironically call both Dan and Phil my internet dads because they did teach me a lot and shaped who I am today.

They went to Joshua Tree! It looks like they’re already having a great time

Cornelia also posted a story on ig from the car, so dnp are definitely with her and Martyn (not that it was ever in doubt, tbh), so now i'm gonna pray for some #content from her because she always gives the people what they want.
