Ask game to tag for phan!

What are your top three dan and phil games videos and why?

i love this but i’m gonna be so fr i’m awful at ranking things & i cannot remember what happened in a given video ever. so this is gonna be post-hiatus since those are fresher in my mind. and also in no particular order.

1) halloween baking because well. yknow. it gave me almost the same heart palpitations basically i’m gay did. and i’ve never seen phil lose it that bad. incredible content 10/10.

2) incohearant. absolute chaos. dan calling phil out for being a power bottom. anal fisting. etc. cannot be matched.

3) maybe the first heart throb back from hiatus? an iconic way to kick off a new era. went from glass closet playing in 2018 to smashed closet in 2024.

apparently gale is supposed to have slightly different morning after dialogue if you choose the astral sex scene but this has always been bugged for me

i like that it emphasizes sensuality and feeling because every once in a while i see people talk as though the astral sex is purely mental or something and it never read that way to me so it's nice to have that reinforced

Any predictions for Worlds?

My prediction for Worlds is that it's unpredictable. 😁 I assume that you wanna talk the men competition? (I can talk about all other disciplines as well, but that would take too long here)

I'd say there are 4 contenders for the Gold medal at Worlds Ilia, Shoma, Yuma and Adam.

Let's take a look at the Season 2023/2024 Best Scores:

1. Ilia Malinin (6 quads FS) - 314,66 (GPF23)

2. Yuma Kagiyama (3 quads FS) - 307,56 (4cc23)

3. Adam Siao Him Fa (4 quads FS) - 306,78 (GPFra23)

4. Shoma Uno (4 quads FS without all combos) - 297,34 (GPF23)

And the Personal Best Scores:

1. Ilia Malinin - 314,66 (GPF23)

2. Shoma Uno - 312,48 (Worlds 2022)

3. Yuma Kagiyama - 310,05 (Olympics 2022)

4. Adam Siao Him Fa - 306,78 (GPFra2023)

I think the SP will be key and who makes less mistakes. A mistake in the SP can cost the title. The free skate however will decide who will win.

Let's take a look at each of the 4:

First don't underestimate the current World champion! I know Shoma doesn't have the highest season scores and even his PB is behind Ilia's but Shoma has one thing that none of the others have, which is experience under pressure. Shoma is 26 years old and around in his 9th senior season, there is no one that can beat him on that. As Shoma's season best scores aren't as high imo he has the highest potential to improve his scores by miles. I think for the SP Shoma is quite save. Out of 4 SPs this season he hit 4 clean skates! For his free skate we have to take into consideration that so far this season he had no complete BV, he always missed one jumping pass bc he popped one of them. The q's have also been a problem this season yet he still was 2nd at GPF despite of it. Shoma's BV is 3rd highest if he's not going back to 5 quads, but his PCS will be the highest unless he makes serious mistakes. Also Shoma performs usually best when he's not the favorite. So never count him out! Shoma paces himself usually for the big competitions but Shoma seems to have new boots, so it's a bit of a gamble to say where his consistency might be.

I did this calculation after GPF23, where a realistic score for a clean free skate could be around 211+, which is higher than anyone's.

As a big Shoma fan I ofc want Shoma to win a 3rd world title and I think that's also within the possibilties.

I think it's undeniable that Ilia has the highest BV and therefore the highest scoring possibilty, but I actually doubt that possible score will be much higher than what he got at the GPF. Ilia is also the one of the 4 with the lowest PCS. The SP is going quite well for him this season, but a 4A in the SP would be very risky and could also cost him dearly if missed. Of course a clean 6 quad free program will be hard to beat and the 4A seems to add PCS as well, but still his PCS hold him back a bit. Imo Ilia's PCS are still too high but that high TES give you high PCS is nothing new in skating and we have to be realistic that his PCS will only increase. Yet Ilia was again not very convincing at US Nats and it's reported that he's struggling with his new boots. Could also be that Ilia peaked too early to win...

Adam is quite similar case as Ilia with the PCS but his BV is not as high though Adam is also training a 4F and might include it into his program, what would upgrade his BV. Adam's SP has been a bit of a problem under pressure, yet also if he is clean he would place 4th after the SP if Yuma, Shoma and Ilia are clean. I think Adam's scores this season are quite maxed out judging wise. He never scored as high before and he got those scores with clean skates. I think that Adam may have peaked a bit too early in the season, his Euros performance was less than stellar and he never was in a position to win a World championship. We should not underestimate the difference in pressure. I actually think if everyone goes clean it would be Adam who is 4th.

Yuma has the lowest BV of the 4 contenders, but almost as high PCS as Shoma. His GOEs are probably the best out of the 4 contenders which makes up for less difficulty. You can see that if you compare Yuma's 3 quad 4cc free skate score with Ilia's 6 quad free skate score, that they are almost the same score despite Ilia's massive BV. With the high from the 4cc win Yuma definetly gained confidence yet without devaluing his win the mental game is quite different when you're not competing among the best. At JNats Yuma showed an unusual mistake in the SP I guess because of the pressure and at Worlds 2022 he also made very uncharistic mistakes under pressure. Yet the way he presented himself this season and condidering the judging at 4cc I would say Yuma is a favorite to win.

I don't want to make a final ranking what I think will happen because usually Worlds has very unpredictable results. I mean Junhwan Cha was not on the favorites list to win Worlds 2023 yet he was very close. I would not be surprised if the men event is a hot mess and someone totally under the radar lands on the podium.

Even if I ofc have my wishes all I really wish for is an exciting and fair competition. That's all. Another title for Shoma would be great but anything that happens now is a bonus and 3 world titles one after the other is pretty high expectation. Shoma is not underestimating his rivals nor do I, but you better should not underestimate Shoma as well. 😊

literally one of my fave things from tonight too was just going back after the show to see all my beloved foblr mutuals reacting in real time to the stream it’s like you were all there with me :,)

[lcandothisallday]

im so nervous for this game but also auston isn’t playing so i feel like this somehow guarantees our win because this team is goofy like that😌

[dandyshucks]

Don’t forget to do the Rainbow Rocket episode when you can! Do you have a team planned? I’m betting you pick Popplio C: - @kaijus-love-zone

IM EXCITED FOR THE RAINBOW ROCKET STUFF ONCE I GET THERE :3

I dont have any team planned bc I actually have very little knowledge of the Alola pokedex LOL theres already been a few pkmn that are brand new to me !!! its kind of exciting tbh !! when i started playing platinum, i already knew almost all of the pkmn in it bc I'd watched a bunch of the anime that covered Sinnoh's dex, so it's a brand new experience of playing a game without knowing many of the 'mons I'll be meeting :D !!

I CHOSE ROWLET ACTUALLY, the few eps I watched of the su/mo anime had primarina in one of them and her pkmn cries were rly irritating after the first couple so I don't rly want to have it in my game 😭 RIP primarina and the popplio line djdkdl... I really love popplio's design though and i love litten's too but rowlet is the only one that i rly like the third evo of !!! its been interesting having a grass starter rather than a water starter !!

once i have a solid team i will update yall w that, but here's sort of what I've settled on for most of my play-time today, it's as balanced a team as I can get with what I've caught so far:

[snowshinobi]

say what you want about League of Legends but they really went off with the bird couple

[cheemken]

do u still have more hc's about the champions, old or the next gen ones

Yeah I have cause like I've been thinking abt Dawn and Cynthia in the next gen champs au cause like,, yeah y'know in my hcs, before Cynthia, Palmer was the Sinnoh Champion, and when Cynthia finally took that title from him, he didn't even give her any tips or anything, didn't tell her how grueling it truly was, didn't tell her how lonely it was, how isolating it was, how he didn't try to help her despite being able to do so, how it's going to fuck her up 

And Cynthia resented him for it 

So when she heard how Dawn and Barry wanted to be Champions as well, she made it her main goal to never let Dawn win. No, not Dawn. Dawn was a kind girl who doesn't deserve to be isolated from everyone else, to be placed upon a pedestal she didn't want, to be given the illusion of freedom of an open cage, only to fall face first to ground the moment she tries to fly 

No, Dawn doesn't deserve that, but Palmer's kid does. 

Oh, how Cynthia wanted to be petty for once, she's been kind and patient to everyone long enough that it costed her her own health, her own stability, Palmer's kid should go through the same thing, it's only fair, it's only right, oh the twisted irony of it, coming full circle, that she'll be giving the Champion title to the son of the man she loathed since she was young 

But Barry couldn't beat her. Even tho she wasn't trying too hard, he couldn't beat her. And so, it's Dawn's turn to try.

Now, as the new Champions are sharing their experiences with how they got their champion titles, Dawn realized just how much she truly fought Cynthia for that Champion title

Unlike the rest of her fellow champions, it took her literal months to beat Cynthia, it's almost as if Cynthia didn't want her to win

Your honour do you see my vision for this cjdmdj like Dawn realizing now just how desperate Cynthia looked during their battles, how desperate she actually was, as if she doesn't wanna lose,, or rather, she doesn't wanna lose to her.

Contentness (37%!) is about to overtake what used to be depression (39%).

Started out using this app ("How We Feel") while overwhelmed and suffering from lots of depression and anxiety- and then, after exorcizing some demons in between October and November... the blue (depression) is now turning green! Red (anxiety) is fading- and small bouts of hyperactivity (Yellow) have started to show themselves again.

Additionally, it turns out that my depression was partially suppressing my mild ADHD.

Healing from trauma, while also processing and understanding my emotions, has really changed my life. I'm now tackling the CPTSD I still have, which thankfully has also died down significantly. There are very few emotional flashbacks occurring and even when they do occur, I can handle them better than I ever did before!

I have also become so much more calm and peaceful. Inwardly, it's like I've cleared out a curse that continuously caused me emotional and psychological suffering. My mind is literally a quiet temple and my heart is not shriveled, frozen and rotten anymore (or at least, that's how I used to picture it in my head in the past).

A peaceful mind, a normal heart. No weight on my shoulders. No shadows chasing me anymore. I'm still struggling to believe it.

People can heal. Start over. Change. Anything is possible.

noniin! ootte ollut niin kiltit ja nyt te saatte part 2.

sama suomen kielen kurssi. eri kaveri.

luimme aina läksymme ääneen ja siellä oli yksi kaveri, jolle suomen kieli oli erittäin vaikeaa (ja kyllä, se on helvetin vaikeaa!)

se puhui todella hitaasti, mutta hänellä oli niin rauhoittava ääni. se alkoi lukea läksyjään ääneen ja se meni jotakuinkin näin:

”minun täytyy…ostaa…leipää, maitoa…v…v? vit...vittua”

se oli kirjoittanut "voita" MUTTA the heart wants what the heart wants!

(saako niitä prismasta? vai onko se enemmänkin k-citymarket -tuote?)

kun muutin suomeen, olin intensiivisellä suomen kielen kurssilla muiden maahanmuuttajien kanssa. ja kerran luokkatoverilla oli niin kiire kotiin. ja se sanoi: “mun täytyy lähteä, koska JUMALA TULEE! JUMALA TULEE!!!” ja se lähti pois. olimme kaikki hiljaa hetken. sitten toinen luokkatoveri sanoi: “ehkä se tarkoitti että juna tulee?” emme koskaan pyytäneet häntä selventämään mitä se tarkoitti.
