Oh, thank you!

I thought the 'status quo' was having the shops combined. Didn't know that it was active only during Christmas!

The items are cute, though. I am tempted by the whiskers.

Dan is back to being horny on main

And Phil liked it almost immediately.

Someone tell him he's supposed to control his man, not encourage him.

In my mind they workshoped this tweet together over a bottle of cheep wine on the couch

I had to hard lol at this as he is about 24 hours too late on this meme which is so not his aesthetic. Calling Phil a boomer and then doing this. Atrocious behaviour. I give him an out as I only know as I am in tier whatever central london is in and I have never been more bored/up on crypto and memes in my life and I don't have Phil or Guild wars distracting me, simply a very boring investment banking job. But then I also don't call my partner a boomer (cos I don't need to, he is nearly 50 and pronounces meme as me me :lol so that is implied)..

The merch sale has me thinking, is there any merch that you would love Dan and Phil to create? For me I would love pjamas. I would love them to be a mix of Dan and Phils personality and subtle, with a nod to their past. For example I wouldn’t want Dan and Phil writen on them in big letters, or a picture of Dan and Phil.

Kavat, Dizzy and Fruitcriminals, all 3 of you had me cackling with your tweet commentary lmao

I love Kath getting the big cake, I'm sure she knows those two will have no problem with it. It did remind me of that pic of Dan with the cheesecake from Japan.

Just a friendly reminder that this is the weekend for the PhandomWatch+PhandomGives charity livestream! We'll be enjoying 34 straight hours of Phil videos (with a side helping of Dan, when Phil-adjacent) and giving away prizes that include art commissions, fic commissions, stickers from the soon-to-launch IDB sticker shop, copies of Dan's book, Phil merch, and some shop gift cards! It starts at 1 PM UTC, so I'll make another post in the hour beforehand that has the link.

Also if you want to donate to PhandomGives but don't have time for the stream, here's the JustGiving link. This year's recipient is AKT, the queer youth charity that Phil did a podcast with.

(Also, fun fact for anyone that might be newer, but both the PhandomGives charity drive and the PhandomWatch streaming parties had their start as ideas from users on IDB.)

The marathon livestream has started! Come join us: https://caracal.club/PhandomWatch

Happy Birthday to Phil!!!

I’m not gonna get all emotional all over IDB, but I honestly can’t believe how many of this man’s birthdays I’ve celebrated at this point. I love him. He deserves the world for providing a bit of sunshine when the world has arguably been pretty bleak.

I hope Dan bought him the weirdest, gayest cake this year and that, despite circumstances, his birthday still takes up the better part of a full month.

ty ly bb phil ;-;

I hope this weekend is full of birthday zooms and facetimes with everyone they would normally see during the national event that is Phil's Birthday Week.

(And hoping for a sappy dan tweet of course)

I don't know about you, but I think that's pretty romantic!

I still think the "everlasting as the sun"one is superior but this was pretty cute, too! I love that he got creative for it, lol.

These stalkers, they rock up at your flat on the pretence of using your washing machine and 12 years later they’re still there, writing you adorable birthday poems totally undermining your privacy statements Side lol at everyone dragging Dan in the @ replies for being old himself.

How cute omg

Anyhow, I wanted to say it here too: you In Depth Bants guys are awesome; literally awesome for what you are doing with the streaming and donations

I've been lost in livestream land but Phil tweet!! And Phil instagram!!!

I just saw Cornelia's insta story and I like to think Kath sent everyone the same cake so the zoom celebration would feel more legit

Yeah and I love that so much.

I keep wondering what Phil might do next video wise. Honestly wouldn't hate it if he did a 'how I spent my lockdown birthday' video. He could talk for ten minutes about family zooms and red velvet cake and a lil present haul.

I would hope so, but I am not convinced! Why to cover the background?

I am not sure the rule of six (o three?) is still valid. Are support bubble still a thing? They are supposed to be for people who live alone now.

Popping in to say the marathon for Phil's birthday is still going, so if you want to join please do! We are going to have a trivia quiz soon https://caracal.club/PhandomWatch

And of course, if you want to donate to the charity, here's the link: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/pg-phil34
Proud to be part of this community that made this possible

The forum may be a little wonky for some users at the moment but we're working on fixing it and hope to have things back to normal soon. Apologies for the disruption!

Definitely, I'm nosey so I'd love it even if the video was just an itemised list of presents

Honestly, idk if he would talk about it much. Chilling with Dan, sure, but I feel like not being able to visit his family is one of those things that makes Phil really sad, I'm not sure he would want to talk about it much on camera.

Hey yall! I was gonna drop a rant about Phil's video but then I just got IDB nostalgia.... and Phil's birthday cuteness kind of made my rant ideas fly out of my head... so I hope you all are having a nice evening and I'm just gonna take my shit stirring rant and put it on the back burner until I can more clearly formulate it. peace

Very true, his birthday is the one year mark for seeing his parents too isn't it? That's crazy to think about, definitely puts into perspective how lucky I am with how my country has handled the pandemic. Sending all the positive vibes to people still dealing with lockdowns
