My latest Substack post is a collection of recent Man City sketches

[ferallester]

alrighty folks so provided we’re getting a full gaymingmas (gay gamingmas), that means that those of us who are Australian will probably get the first upload, whatever it may be, on the 2nd (aka late evening on the first in England), which means lateish afternoon for the Americans

based on today’s upload (6:45ish), and provided they don’t run late, I predict a 7am, give or take an hour or two, upload on Saturday, aka mid to late arvo for the Americans, and late evening for the Europeans

i still haven't gotten a newsletter with the shipping updates, but here it is:

and here is an email that was sent after the newsletter:

and that's how we have some contradicting information

Hey, did your dnfc merch ship, because it was supposed to ship on the 20th and I still havent gotten an email (I ordered it on the 2nd, I know later orders are shipping the 29th)

hi, it didn't! i didn't get any emails about the shipment either. and yeah, i assumed i'd get something by now. i'm in the EU, so if i don't get anything by 25th, i will ask M&E. i have a theory about bundles and EU specifically. what part of the Earth are you at?

i know the UK started getting the rituals t-shirts last week, i also saw someone getting the don't cry craft one. haven't seen any bundles delivered. i assume they are being shipped the last. and if M&E isn't producing dnp merch for the EU (they aren't) they might be waiting for it to come to their warehouse before shipping farther to us. and that's the reason for the delay. allegedly :)

phil ochs, broadside magazine #36 Dec. 1963

[ahappyphjl]

slept for a few hours and i’ve never been more happy to be so tired and delirious cause ohmygod dan and phil did THAT they actually did like it could’ve been a picture it could’ve been an email but they did THAT!!

[simplydnp]

idk why this matters to me but in the last few months they've been acknowledging so many things I never ever thought they would. pinof and the touching. the phude multiple times. dapc slime (ok they had merch to sell for that one but still)

no but actually. phil literally said 'i thought we weren't acknowledging it' about the phude and now they just bring it up all the time.

pinof reacts... i still can't believe we're in a post pinof-reacts universe. how did that happen. i was changed permanently--like something shuffled in my dna when i got the notif for pinof reacts 1. this is not a physical reaction but a chemical one that cannot be undone. for something that was so... sacred. and integral. to their existence and history. pinof wasn't generally talked about unless it was pinof time. and even then it was 'it'll be up soon' or 'we just posted it' and then Never talked about outside of that. especially not the first one! we freak out about the We Know You Know in the newsletter but it's Always been like that with pinof 1. so to see them--new (& natural 🥺) hair for them both, in a house they bought and built together, in the first few months of giving the gaming channel a second chance--reflect on how it all began? absolutely devastating. and to lean into moments and discuss them in new ways. in territory previously not breached! the 'they're toUching'?!?!? the '11 hour fuck session'!?!? the '£9000 champagne'?!?!? like hey we're not supposed to talk about that, dan and phil might see!! shhh!! but they're the ones saying it!! absolutely wild.

in a way, it had to happen. especially with where we're at now (them literally selling merch of them holding hands). in order for them to move beyond that... mindset? i guess? that a lot of fans had, they had to defang it. i really see it as one of the biggest walls they've broken down in the way they communicate with us. the 'hey. it's okay. we've seen it. it's not a big deal. we will absolutely make fun of you for it though. but we're good.'

i'm just really curious whose idea it was. (lbr it was probably phil given dans not a react kinda guy. but i'd be lying if i said i didn't want to be in the room where it happened when they talked about actually doing it or not, and what it would mean) (big ad revenue thats for sure 🤣 get it kings)

i will never be able to get phil's 'they touched' out of my head and at this point i wouldn't want to. it's absolutely earned. and i guess it makes me a masochist to enjoy the psychic damage it inflicts on me, but such is life i suppose.

the crafts mention really surprised me! i had contemplated a few different scenarios in how they'd go about it, and i'll be honest i feel like they could've committed to the bit a little more but they're forgiven. like what about glitchy interstitials! cuts to the merch website. found footage inserted between sections! i recognize they don't want to 'scare' their usual audience wirh sudden cuts to intense/graphic content but my immersionnn. absolutely shattered by 'oh we have new merch now btw'. cmon boys you love to lie to us. say theres merch up but you dont know where it came from. just that we should buy it 👀 or idk, something clever. and i recognize i may sound like a spoilt brat bc i just got a 14 minute long masterpiece of an unexpected dapc revival, but my immersion. i mean i already bought the merch before they shilled it anyways so it didn't influence me regardless 🤣

ultimately we really are in a new era. even beyond just the revival. i think they're really finding their stride--not only in their content (evidenced by a semi-regular schedule) but also creatively, in doing what they want to do, how they want to do it, and truly not giving that much of a fuck anymore. and i'm really happy for them. phil talked a bit about this in his 'rating my icons' video, where he's kind of decided he doesn't care what people on twitter think, and how it's been good for him, and i think we're seeing that reflected in not only his content, but also the gaming channel. they play what they want. they say what they want. and it's just fun. dan going on the record to say he's really enjoying it makes me so happy to hear, because literally december 2022 he believed he'd disappear after WAD. and now, instead, he gets to play games and make stupid jokes and smile and laugh multiple times a week, and he's really happy about it. he gets to be silly and goofy and crude without having to Stress about it. i keep saying it but they're so settled now. and as someone who's followed them through big changes and turbulent times, getting to see them happy after everything... it brings a lot of hope. and i know theyre millionaires. but there's something to looking at someone you fell in love with 15 years ago the same then as you do now. but instead of it being something scary, something you have to hide, something that feels like it can consume you and everything you have--it gets to be something beautiful. and regular. and embraced. you've read this far you get to listen to me wax poetic about them.

we've been thoroughly boiled and maybe, just maybe, it's warming our hearts too.

I think it's time to start Tom Glynn-Carney's Emmy campaign for House of the Dragon (I'll never be over Phil Dunster being snubbed for Ted Lasso, by the way!). Because, MY GOD, Tom's performance in last night's HOTD absolutely stunned me. The emotional depths of it. The physicality of it. Just outstanding.

And it's so successful because Aegon is not a good man. He's not, BUT Tom's performance is so visceral and humanizing that you catch yourself feeling for this character. It means the words are great on the page, and Tom Glynn-Carney is putting his all into this role. Gosh, I can't wait to see where this character goes next just so I can see Tom continue to evolve as a performer alongside Aegon. It's so good. I can't stop thinking about it. And the added levels of Aegon and Helaena's dynamic and Phia Saban's breathtaking performance? UGH. It's incredible. Just wow.

And, yes, I know I've said I'm not caught up. I'm still not. But I'm curious and watched the episode out of context, which should tell you how much I loved Tom's performance. I had to write about it somewhere, and maybe I'll wax poetic a bit more for my newsletter as I catch up because I've got this dragon show on my mind.
