Dan loves to make up reasons to credit Phil on his projects. What the fuck is "remote crisis management." Why did Why I Quit YouTube need an "archive historian." What "production assistance" did Phil provide on BIG. Explain yourself Daniel

"I think, as you may have clocked in the show, from a period of time when I was feeling a certain way. It was towards the end of 2021, early 2022, where I was a bit, like, I need to do something. I have been on this hiatus, there has been a literal pandemic, the vibes are not amazing, and so I very much was like, I want to... Look. With Basically I'm Gay, I wrote myself out of the closet. Right? I used the hell that my career has trapped me in as an obligatory way to force my hand to rip the plaster off and confront my sexuality. Which was a good thing! Without all of you, without the internet, who knows? I might be in the closet, being a sad lawyer right now. Legitimately. And it was kind of the same thing here. I was, like, I want to just start creating a piece of entertainment and then maybe I'll entertain myself out of a hole. And if I go on a tour, then I'll get to touch grass. I'll get to smell the fresh air of Chicago, Illinois and wherever the fuck. I guess Helsinki had fresh air. Shout out to Europe. Ehm, and yeah. It was literally like a self-fulfilling prophecy, right? It was like writing the show and doing the show was the thing that I needed and here we are!" - Dan Howell, post-live premiere of we’re all doomed, 25th of February 2024
BIG and WAD are both such incredible things and I am emotional about the fact that he can sort out something so complex and private through sharing it with his audience.
Quotes from Dan (150/?)

THE STAR: Renewed hope, healing, and self-development
My first piece for @dnptarot!!! The Star has always been my favorite card, and I thought a Basically I'm Gay theme fit the meaning well enough :]
[ID: Digital art of Daniel Howell, as an interpretation of the tarot card The Star. He wears the outfit from Basically I'm Gay, the sequin jacket fading into a star-filled view of space. He's surrounded by twelve larger white stars, and his expression is calm and happy. Faint rainbows from lens flare and lighting surround the piece. End ID]
#the number 12 can also symbolize growth/completion so theres meaning there too !!!!!!!! i thought this shit out!!!!!!#im so happy i managed to snag this card!! tysm to esme thighguys for organizing this whole event :D#dnptarot#daniel howell#basically i'm gay#sat art#dnp#fanart#phanart#phan#< for the fandometrics dw abt it

tbh I DO think that Dan expected people to just run with what he said in Basically I'm Gay as "phan is real!!!!!" proof, and ever since people instead reacted like "well we can't be SURE-sure", dan and phil have been playing a game of seeing how far they can get schrodinger's hard-launching

god 'basically i'm gay' destroys me for all the obvious reasons but i'm thinking specifically about the phrasing "and obviously, we were more than friends" and basically not elaborating past that. dan simply said, obviously. like; you knew. we knew you knew. we hid it and you still knew and you made it very clear. and it was in a scary intense invasive way, especially for a guy who was deeply closeted, but i'm also thinking about how he's said since then that without the community of fans that had formed from this, he might never have had the courage to come out and would still to this day probably be a miserable straight lawyer. except for how obviously they were together. and i'm just wondering how that must feel for him. if they hadn't been so obvious people might not have figured it out, but without this terrifying state of being perceived he might never have been able to be his true self.
im giving myself a migraine
#i understand completely if he never wants to do this but god what i wouldnt give for dan to write like. a really long essay or another book#or something just talking about what the fuck that was like for him#im someone who cant deny who i am to myself even when ive sometimes wanted to so dans story is really quite foreign to me anyway?#so im really curious about it in general. but also just in the sense of like.#i dont think anyone in the world has ever been through what dan has and never will again#my head hurts#dan and phil#basically i'm gay#daniel howell#dan howell#phan

Dan and Phil still refusing to outright acknowledge that they are in a relationship while clearly being in a relationship is a little bit funny but tbh if my fanbase spread a video about my most intimate and personal moments with my significant other for years and years after it was accidentally leaked all while I was still not out to my own family, I would also do everything in my power to keep as much of my love life away from them as humanly possible for the rest of my life
