This scene played out yesterday.
I'm 5 pages behind, so apologies if I'm being repetitive, but this is GREAT! Between the magazine, live show, and these twitter accounts, make me wonder if we do actually need . Clearly the phandom is quite capable of entertaining itself.
I know the #daninadress convo is SO [offtopic][/offtopic] now but I must point out that Dan fav'd this on Tumblr. Seems he's pretty chill about dress stuff, at least at this point.
it's not really about how he feels lmao, it's about the feelings of actual men/amab nonbinary people who wear dresses and are saying 'we are very uncomfortable with this please stop this is actually harmful the views you are spreading are not helpful' and being told 'nooo... he looks cute...... #genderrolls' the whole thing is an 'attractive slim white men can wear pretty dresses because i think it's cute' while ignoring actual people who face backlash for this and that's not at all the point and it's not at all helpful and ive seen blogs getting messages from feminine presenting amab people saying exactly what im saying and being ignored
"this obsession and fetishisation and idea that it's only okay when it's what you find attractive and enjoyable and that gender presentation is about being physically beautiful over comfortable with yourself is very hurtful and part of the reason we struggle" "no haha it's actually about gender rolls worst kind of bread hahahaha...... dan looks cute in dresses that's the point!!"
my name is jaejmine masters and i have something to say. dan and phil have fucked up japan
phil lester threw the first brick at stonewall, we love a queer icon
Probably way off-topic by now, as I'm a few pages back, but -

THEY WENT ON A BOAT TOUR TOGETHER????
my...my heart
I used to live in Chicago, and this picture gave me some MAJOR homesickness. That tour really is awesome -- it gives you a great overview of the Loop/Downtown. Glad to see the boys are enjoying my favorite city! [/offtopic]

Thank you for your input, jaej. I decided to include this link because it's the first indication that Dan actually knows about this trend and doesn't seem uncomfortable about it, which is good. But you're right to say that this is getting out of hand in the fandom to the point of fetishism, while still ignoring the realities that actual gender-nonconforming and non-binary people have. I guess I just hope that this thing settles down before it becomes completely tasteless and triggering.

The bridge on top is actually kinda curvy and the second bridge's form is more squared and pronounced.
^^^Definitely the closest we have found. It is the nose bridge that is not high enough on any glasses.

And they are the big bosses on this tour, there's just no reason to hang out with subordinates all the time, it just over complicate things, make management a lot harder. Keeping a boundary between boss and employee is kinda important.
Most probably they'll have a wrap-up party hosted by for all the support team.
I do admire how professional Martyn & Cornelia are, they are family but when it comes to work they don't mix it. I also feel M&C are great at keeping the staff morale high at least the merch team, and it would not surprise me might "sponsor" their fun trips.
I doubt it, to me it seems deps just leave everything merch related completely for martynelia to decide, and give them a bunch of freedoms. But i don't think they will go as far as sponsoring their trips.
Martyn is a director of IRL and entertaining staff is an allowable expense so maybe it isn't D&P sponsoring them but IRL is. They are employed by them for this tour I would assume.
This means that Martynelia can still over see everything and have fun with the rest of the merch crew.I can't see them making the merch staff pay for every trip they do in each city.
"You can't just pull it out and put it in without a plan." Dan Howell 2015
not me. I kinda wish they'd take it down. I don't want this to be flooded with phangirls.
It only has 62 notes I don't think many people are going to come over
62 is kinda a lot if you ask me, also we talk about sensitive things on here that the greater phandom shouldn't really know about, I think we should ask the poster to take it down. I would volunteer to do that.
The mods know the person who runs that tumblr, and we had asked them if they would use it to promote the forum early on. There's no need to ask them to delete it, especially at this point.
That post is literally how I found this forum because everything on GG got deleted and I didn't know where people went.

C has no say but M hold 1/3 so as long as approve the expenses, M can decide who/what/when/where So I do think had pre-approved a budget for M to use as operational/entertainment expenses. (buss talk how boring )

Fuck, those glasses look like someone has broken them and the tried to fix them with some metal wiring.
I'm team #TheseShadesAreWeird #DanIsWerd #WeirdSuitsWeird #SecretShadowChicken
I used hashtags ironically, if you feel personally attacked, tell that to a mod.
But who the fuck am I kidding? I'm mostly just the rotting banana peel at the bottom of the phan trash can who genuinely gets excited over the thought of them snuggling in bed. Idgaf let a bitch live

Can I ask whats wrong with Dan's sunglasses; I see a lot of young professionals wearing them when I travel in Europe esp Mediterranean and also Gulf states.
I think Dan's sunglasses are a bit too small for his face but other than that he still looks lovely and I love those sunglasses!
I mean if it wasn't Dan I would think it's Camden sunglasses but knowing him I would bet on something a bit more expensive.
(this was my take on #sunglassesgate thank you very much )
i have no idea what my 2016 signature actually meant so now you’re just getting this

+1. No likey, but he can wear what he likes. No problem with having stuff round your waist, although it's strange that stays in place but the jeans never do...!

I actually quite like the sunglasses, although I think there are probably others that would suit his face better? Definitely think they're on the more expensive side knowing Dan, but all my searching for them has lead only to all my Facebook advertising now being sunglasses
+1 on liking the sweater round waist look, and now that you mention it how does that stay up when jeans don't??

We shall share the pain of forgetting to research sunglasses out of the private mode
I really like the sunglasses and the way they look on him, but maybe I'm too work-work-fashun-baby for my own good.
I love this trend for sunglasses so I appreciate Dan's choice...they look good on him IMO!
and from experience wearing mine, I can say that this kind of sunglasses highlight the nose shape a lot....
should start taking brand deal. Lol. I am sooo tired of looking at lots of sunglasses pictures.
Random theory (and mostly unlikely), what if Dan is a troll and buy unbranded sunglasses, like just some cheap £20 from some random place, that's why we can't find it?

Maybe he lost / forgot to take his good ones, needed sunglasses asap and went to the first store that came up. Been there, done that. We could try and ask him on the next LS (as well about Phil's now disappeared necklace)

all those photos from chicago are so nice! and i'm so happy phil finally tweeted something unrobotic
i like dan's sunglasses! i like the style, i want a similar one too (even though i dunno if it would suit me). ticia, we need us some work-work-fashion-baby but i need prescription on my sunglasses so that ain't ever gonna happen.
