[starlit-syncopation]

okay not to speculate too much (this is a comedy podcast etc you get it) but phuckbang three not beating the phautism phallegations bc wdym Dan can't make eye contact and Phil makes too much

they match each other's phreak I love it

[otherwaybabe]

I have a new theory and I think I'm gonna cry.

I think Dan has a new project since the Hard Launch and it's making Phil love himself.

So much of their relationship has been Phil giving Dan the space to figure himself out and now Dan's returning the favor.

Look at "If Phil Blinks, Dan Dies" Phil not blinking was A THING, something he was incredibly self conscious of and tried to change. So Dan chose a game where that's an asset, that's something to be praised for.

With the phalendar, Dan's comfortable wearing makeup and being soft, Phil hasn't been, he's talked over and over again about how gender rolls were instilled in him as a child. Even two weeks before the shoot, he was saying he looked ugly in makeup. So, between the two of them Phil was the princess, the vampire, the alien, the one that got to be made up and told he looks beautiful.

Phil doesn't think he's attractive, so Dan explicitly said that maybe phannies should start filming him when he's not paying attention again, so he can see how beautiful he is (obviously a joke but the point stands)

Giving Phil "Here's the Thing" so he can share his random anecdotes and see how much love and support they get.

Giving Phil a space to start talking about his own coming out experience. something he didn't do when he did come out. He gave Dan the floor and now Dan's giving it back to him.

And so so so many more examples.

Showing Phil that these things he saw and were told were weaknesses and Dan is going out of his way to make sure Phil knows they are strengths and worthy of exploration and acceptance.

autism is so weird like yeah i emotionally regulate by watching two british twinks try to play video games but mostly flirt and argue

Pham I'm in my 30s and the way these two British gay men have a hold on me, I can't take it. All I want to do is yap but there's no one who understands. I'm too socially inept to make new phannie friends, so I'm just scrolling Tumblr parasocially
