I just saw a video from 7 years ago and of this guy just talking about youtube events and which youtbers he knows well personally etc. Someone asked him about dan and phil and he mentioned that he actually went to university with phil, he was just in the year below him, but he doesnt know them too well now, he’ll just see them around every now and then. Anyway its so funny to me how every single person who isnt one of the 4 main online people dnp are friends with all have the same response when asked what dnp are like in real life. “They’re nice, but they just tend to keep to themselves so I dont know them that well.” That tracks. Dan and phil like to lie to us about things, but I think their introvertedness is exactly as bad as they say it is. I beleive 100% they met each other in 2009, went “your my person now” and never felt the need to make another social connection ever again that didnt happen naturally or accidentally.
lol was the youtuber jimmy hill 💀💀 anyway yeah I agree! Like obviously they exaggerate a bit—they do have other friends and they do go outside. But yeah, for sure i think on a daily basis they are content to just hang around with each other. It’s also kinda funny bc from the way they talk, I think Phil is more introverted than dan (phil is the one who talks about wanting to leave parties early, iirc Dan recently said he needs to get out and do something every couple of weeks) but all their “main” friends we see them hanging out with are Phil’s pre-dan friends that dan then became friends with 😂 like I’m sure they have other friends we just don’t know about bc they aren’t in the public eye, but the ones we do know about are like Phil’s friends from 2008 lmao. Anyway that’s to say, for a variety of reasons including being introverts I think they keep their bubble pretty small

I really do deserve a fucking apology for all the times my friends and family valued strangers on the internet and their opinions more than me
How am I supposed to be just fine with being ignored for years and years or bullied for openly liking what I like, only for those same fucking people to then turn around YEARS LATER, AFTER THE DAMAGE WAS ALREADY DONE, and be like "actually this is cool, so glad I found it" while still ignoring me. Why am I not allowed to be fucking pissed about it? Why is it considered ""gatekeepy"" when I get upset someone who deliberately ignored me for years and insulted the shit I enjoy when I asked them to get into it cuz I thought they'd like it suddenly finds interest in it because it got popular online, not because I'd been begging them to give it a chance and to listen to me for years???? Why is that not allowed????? THAT'S SUCH AN ASSHOLE MOVE, WHY IS IT 'NOT OKAY' TO BE MAD? WHY DON'T THEY GROW A SPINE AND APOLOGIZE FOR DISMISSING ME FIRST? HOW ABOUT THAT?????

ok you’ve convinced me to watch bsd so where can I watch it? and do I need to read the comics? if so, in what order and where can I read them?
EEK OMG YAY! okay so one thing about me im a little student girlie #ihaventboughtmilkinaweek so i will always consume media the free way lmao. the site i read the bsd manga on is 'bsdmanga.com' which seems very legit but does also do pop ups a lot for me so just make sure you've got an adblock going. if you want to properly buy them though ive seen bsd being sold in almost every waterstones! as for the anime, the sub and dub were both free on crunchyroll AND funimation back when i first started watching it, but not anymore bc everything is awful. the main less-legit site i use for anime is 'animesuge' and that has it there :)

so grateful that my irl friends dont consider me a killjoy for becoming the most parent-like person alive any time they have alcohol . i will be constantly reminding them to drink water and not have anything too strong etc etc while also constantly apologising for it and they are so lovely about it and thank me for keeping them from getting too drunk which is nice . cos i feel really bad every time i act like that but i just want them to stay safe yk 😭 im never like judging them for drinking or anythign just. encouraging them to stop at appropriate times and be safe while having fun n all that
