hey @danielhowell thanks for the proof that you floss, i guess.

#daniel howell #dnp #we’re all doomed #polaroid #he’s so dumb #but we love him anyway

dnp hear me out!! if the office is collapsing and you can’t film…

ditl-leaving the house for the day to avoid builders

like pls you can just go for a walk and get a treat while getting away from builders and then get paid for it

#i do want a new ditl #but lbr #i would NOT trust those builders unattended at the phouse #they'll just fuck something else up #dnp

i think my ideal job would be breaking down cardboard boxes for $30 an hour

#who wants to do this for me? #so many boxes in my house #just accumulating because i cannot executive function enough to break them down

[reinventlove]

I'm kind of at a point where the "queer spaces" i feel safest in are the ones that have a pet cishet dude or two hanging around

#as a theatre person #the token straight dudes doing theatre can SOMETIMES be a pet cishet dude #but sometimes they’re also too icky #scamming on all the cishet girlies #just because of the lack of options for those women comparably

question: you get to pick a film to watch in the phouse with dnp and get to talk about it together afterwards. what movie are you choosing 🎤

#this is hard! #tbh it’d probably be a musical #moulin rouge so i can screlt elephant love medley with dan #or repo! the genetic opera #i feel like phil would really be into it if he hasn’t seen it before #dan is a given on that one because it’s so camp #dnp

[reinventlove]

i like the implication that dan was some kind of court jester while phil was just sort of sitting there. passenger princess since day 1

#dan was doing so. much. #the thirst was real #notice me senpai #dnp

[reinventlove]

and now the whole family is together!

we need to bring back anon kink memes in a big way. no one is horny enough anymore. the other night i found a fic on an old kink meme from 2009 that was so well-written and also so raunchy and foul (affectionate) it could have stripped paint off my car. there is something about truly unapologetic filth that can be transcendent and tender and marrow deep and maybe if we all leaned into being anonymous depraved little weirdos again we'd learn how to have more fun.

#i still revisit the glee kink meme pinboard from time to time #fandom of yore

[reinventlove]

I have a feeling the phouse will never get done

#no but for real they need to sue their builders #also this is why you don't buy new builds kids #buy a house that already had at least one tenant #and do NOT waive your right to an inspection #it is not worth the risk #you can have enough issues even WITH an inspection #the joys of home ownership #dnp

[reinventlove]

why did i read this ask to the tune of “you don’t bring me flowers”? very tempted to rewrite the lyrics and record myself singing it 👀

"You don't buy me boba" "you don't walk with me" love those 2 tortoises

the same people that deliveroo a single donut to stay in sync and stand side by side on the same escalator step btw

#dnp #should i do it? #enable me please

Ive been seeing some big youtubers and creators announce (seperately) that they're going on tours, and a lot of of them are full on stage shows. These are people with tens of millions of followers each.

And then I think about the fact that dan and phil are the reason they can. Dan and phil completely pioneered the industry for online creators. They were the first youtubers to do a world tour of a stage show. First youtubers to show that they are actually professional enemtertainers and not just ameteur comedians. They were the first youtubers to have their own radio show in the uk. They were the success story that a lot of people built their success on the back of. If tatinof didnt work, it wouldve taken so much longer before online creators would've been taken seriously by venues as comedians/artists/entertainers. If internet takeover didnt work it would've taken so much longer for creators to be offered jobs in mainstream media, as tv/radio presenters, in documentaries, on gameshows etc.

Like yeah, it probably would've happened eventually anyway, but it happened a lot earlier than it would've bc of them. They were the first. And absolutely no one acknowledges that. No one even knows, except for them and us.

Even though dnp in 2024 are by far not the most prominent creators out there, I do think they have had one of the most successful careers of any youtuber/streamer out there. I think they achieved far more in terms of career success and opportunities with their 4-6million joint subscriber count than most of the people with 20million plus subs have, which is pretty cool. Their careers are not built on 5mins of fame. They have understanding of the industry, work ethic, and skill to ensure long careers, even if those careers morph over time. They wont be youtubers for ever, but they will be successful in whatever they do, that I am certain of.

Idk im just feeling emotions about them. Im proud if them. And im excited to see where they go.

NO NOTES ANON!!!!! this is all so true!

I have seen a lot of people mention the fact that d&p are not as popular as they used to be/don't get as many views as they used to as if it's a negative but I don't think it's bad at all, because of all of what you said. they were doing shit that no one else was doing! they paved the way for youtubers to break out of the yt sphere!! which is so amazing but also they were doing SO MUCH for so long. they were carrying the industry on their backs lmao. so now I'm so happy for them that they have the opportunity to chill out and just do what they wanna do. they're just making the content they wanna make and they aren't concerned with how many views they're getting or trying to remain relevant (which I think they still are, but yk what I mean), and they deserve that. because while everything they did was awesome and should absolutely be celebrated, I think it's great that now they have the opportunity to create more casually and they don't need to worry about doing numbers. like yes yt is still their livelihood but in a much more laid-back way yk? and I think that because they did so much, and like you said have understanding of the industry and a good work ethic, that's what allowed them to build a fanbase that has stuck around and that fanbase is why they can be more relaxed now

I agree they might not be youtubers forever but I'm also excited to see what projects they eventually move on to bc they'll slay fs

#this this this #they really did that #the industry would be so different without them #also i know we all want dinok #but #AMAZINGPHIL GAMESHOW WHEN?! #give it to me now #dnp

[reinventlove]

i totally forgot to post this, but here’s the gorgeous art prints that i got from @incaseyouart as part of the @phandomgives fundraiser for phil’s 37th birthday! now to figure out where to put them 👀

#phandomgives #incaseyouart #dnp #daniel howell #phil lester #amazingphil #these are sooooo pretty! #i love vic’s art style so much

what a way to announce your skills issue anyway how long is y'all's longest internet friendship, mine is 14 years

#i have friends on twitter/fb that date back to livejournal days #like 2002-2004ish i think? #some did fall off after a while #but after years not a couple of months #in the same way any friendship deteriorates #not because we met online

[reinventlove]

i haaaate when iris by the goo goo dolls comes in when i’m in a store how am i supposed to act normal when you can’t fight the tears that ain’t comin or the moment of truth in your lies when everything feels like the movies yeah you bleed just to know you’re alive

#no but you don't understand #decades of singing harmonies to this song make it impossible to turn off #and then people look at me funny when i start singing in public

[reinventlove]

Phil and Yellow 💛💛

#the vpmo1 outfit #my love #i’m not usually a fan of yellow but he looks so good #dnp #phil lester #amazingphil

i voted by author, but it’s actually a mix of by genre, author, and title. this is an older picture but you can see that everything is in different groupings (ignore the bottom shelf of chaos that still hasn’t been properly arranged in any meaningful way). sheet music books in one area, travel in another, then fiction and nonfiction, all broken up with art books or knick knacks or whatnot.

About to rearrange and sort my bookshelves! What are your favorite ways to sort your bookshelves?

#i’m actually in the process of rearranging these again #a lot of the stuff on the top shelf were already taken down #and other things were shifted #bookshelfie
