There were some real gems in there too; reviewing the beeps in their house, extra footage from their Japan trip, Phil video trivia where we found out there was almost a Phil peen reveal AND the two versions of pinof 5.

And I just liked seeing his face pop up sometimes during these longer gaps between uploads. I miss him.
Agreed- his first short was on 10/11/21, and his last one was 4/25/22, so I'm guessing it was a 6 month contract? And he made exactly 80 shorts in that period.

I really appreciate just how how quickly he stopped. If it was in fact a 6 month contract, he noped out of it INSTANTLY. Didn’t even pretend to enjoy it or give it one extra go for the sake content.

Bless. This is why I love him. This and his 10 minute and 1 second videos. :lol:

I'm not sure if this has been shared here or not, but ahappydnp on tumblr made a spreadsheet with some figures about Phil's posting over the last couple years! (There are two tabs, one for 2021 and one for 2022).

Dan did an interview with Metro.

It's nice. Even if they did get the year of BIG wrong right there in 3rd paragraph.

Meanwhile, I'm wondering what internet Dan is using where 'being nice is cool now as opposed to 2009'. My man has never spent a minute on stan twt and I for one envy him.

Two of the people he spoke to that stuck out to me:
The boy and his mom who saw Dan at pride and when Dan waved hello the boy burst into tears from happiness. Also love a supportive mom.
The girl who said Phil's videos were home and a safe place...felt that one. So lovely.

Also the last one was definitely Dan, no?

I thought this was such a wholesome video, I would have expected it to be more chaotic than it was, but all the phone calls, (barring the last one) seemed to be very nice conversations. I'm sure he left out some of them, but I'm genuinely surprised he got a real sim card and used a real number, when I saw that tweet I thought it was him trying to get people to sign up for some kind of text notifications so I just ignored it. Oops.

I have a really hard time with listening to phone calls (I also can't handle call-in radio shows) so this was a tough watch for me, but it was mostly a fun video! I wonder if his phone ever recovered from that :lol:

I enjoyed the video WAY more than I expected! I hope the part two is as solid as this one was - also props to him for turning the concept into two videos, lmao. Coulda just given us one twenty minute video but... NOPE. That is not the way of the Phil.

Yay! I totally forgot it’s Dan’s bday until I saw Phil’s flattering photos tweet.

Is this the first time Phandom Gives does not reachc its goal by the Birthday date?

It makes me wonder: do we know how 'old' Youtubers make money, once their career as YTers ends? Do they invest in houses and other businesses like Alfie?
(Yet, I do not understand how Alfie's clothing line could be making him enough money to keep that life style of his)

It really is such an adorable tradition. I love that Dan seems to enjoy it too.

When did they go to the beach though??

I'm on such a content high from those pictures. There's nothing like a birthday tweet really pump some serotonin in you.

I've also been watching Dan and Phil all day with the PhandomWatch group (join here! We aren't even a third of the way done yet) - and we're still raising money for YoungMinds with PhandomGives, you can donate here if you want to be a part of that goodness!

Twitter figured out the photo in the water was taken with the same backdrop as Phil's photo on Instagram from October 25th of last year.

Yep.

He saw TPWK in the bios of a few Harry Styles stans but didn't look at any of their tweets. He somehow avoided kpop twitter completely.

(I say this as both a kpop and HS fan)

I'm sad we didn't get a cake tweet from Dan this year, but he did like a bunch of art on twitter! It's a lovely scroll :)

PJ said on Twitch that Dan and Phil were visiting him for the weekend! I love that, they got to spend some time with friends for Dan's birthday. Our lovely Lackless was listening and said: they played board games and went to a national park, climbed a tree and got fish and chips.

Aww, I had hoped that the lack of cake pics meant that they got to go somewhere special
