He tweeted something back in 2015 saying "tweeting indirects about your own problem as a cry for help " and then obviously people ask if everything is ok and he's like yeah everything I tweet is just a joke don't take it seriously. Also in 2015 he tweeted "don't trust people who tell you other people's secrets" and then phandom went mad trying to theorize over who he's talking about and then he does a liveshow saying he's just talking about an old friend and was just trying to tweet in the style of conor franta.

Tbh I think Dan does when when he's in a depressive mood sometimes, and I think he will obviously always come back later and say he's joking but that doesn't mean the tweet didn't originally come from a very low place. And he didn't actually respond with " i'm just joking everything's a joke i'm a joke help" which tbh worried people back then just as much as his original tweet.

That said, I'm not really of the opinion that phandom has to white knight for him. I guess I fall into kind of a middle ground where I neither want to make fun of him for it nor do I feel like whatever mood he was in is something support from phandom can fix. Sometimes you need people in your real life there for you (which I feel like he has), not strangers who don't really know you or really know your problems offering platitudes, no matter how well meaning they are.

Phil busy taking photos of his bf again: ...and Dan's boomerang:

You ever look at shit like this and just think, Fuck. Phil's so in love.

I'm not trying to write fanfic here, I'm just saying Dan talks the talk, but Phil walks the walk.

they are... so in love...

phil thought about how beautiful the view was and how beautiful dan is and he wanted to capture that

Dan thought the view was pretty, Phil thought he was prettier.

I think the pictures is 99% Phil enjoying the opportunity to prank Dan with a good pun about his name in 1% true love

The way I look at it, I expect to see the lens and skill of a director when I watch a move, of an actor when i see a character played, en the signs and tricks of a "social media influencer" when i look at their social media. It doesn't mean that none of Dan's personality come out through his tweets, but that I expect him to be aware of what he shares, and use a specific angle and specific filters (and I don't mean just visual ones) when communicating with an audience.
To me, him saying something like "I just wanted to make a tweet in Conner Franta's style" just shows he's trying to imitate the style there of a professional peer and that it can be tricky indeed to interpret it.

Yeah sure, just a prank bro.

I’m of the opinion that the photo came first and the pun was added to make it social media worthy, just like that silly hopping surfer tacked on the photo of Dan looking out to sea on the beach at Brighton. But you know, I also believe in love.

Glad they are out and about, enjoying the sights.

Can a friend please prank me by taking gorgeous waterfront photos of me and sharing them with 3.5 million people that they know will fawn all over it and me? I could use that kind of prank in my life.

Only if you share your life with me and we travel the world I GUESS

I also believe in true love, but true love doesn't need to come in pictures you take, 'enhance' to be social media worthy and then share your it to 3.5 mil users Maybe prank isn't exactly the word. Maybe they just know that everybody expects photo's of them at about every location and some will read their true undying love in it whatever gets posted, so they give the people what they want.
But hey, it works however an individual thinks about it. Nobody is going to dislike them making nice pictures. I like that they are spending some time downtown, hopefully it will be the start of a long series of touristy pics

More like Amster-damn, amirite?



(Sorry )

They haven't posted touristy pictures in every location at all though? Like I don't understand why every cute thing has to be because the phandom is evil and ugly and force them to be cute and shippy!!

I just don't get it I guess

The true otp everyone can go home

It feels a bit ironic that Phil’s taken this lovely picture of Dan with a lovely view that he’s completely missing by looking at his phone. It’s a good pose, though.

true love is taking a picture of someone with a milk moustache and still managing to make them look good

Ugh they are killing it with the pictures and stories today. I love what a lovely day they seem to be having.

Deppy who? Nope just us now.

Heck me, that’s adorable. Milk froth placed perfectly. I wonder if they got in there with a napkin to shape it just right. Glad they’re having a nice time out there.

Just adding on. Dan’s instastory could almost be read as commentary on Phil’s story of him: similar framing with a 3/4 profile of a dark haired guy from the back in front of the river/canal, then zooming in on the architectural as the thing you’re in love with, but you know probably not.

God can they please get ugly how the fuck does he make a milk moustache look not completely gross.

also re: Dans tweet yesterday.
Same lol.

(Also today is one year on here for me. Wow.)

I'm weirdly happy about all this love from them for my birthplace.

i don't really think phil takes these pictures of dan cause all the demon phannies are forcing them to, instead i think it's much easier and more logical to assume that he takes them cause he thinks dan is pretty and amsterdam is pretty as well. not everything they do is "giving the people what they want".

Starting off pride month with a bang


Phil is not only an actual photographer, but he invented photography itself. Tell me otherwise and Dan will always be his muse fight me


They’re so married it’s ugly someone take away their phones
