7:45 (about Bahamas situation) “Did I deserve it?”
8:05 (chat) You’re a sinner
“Ye— by many common definitions of the term, yes"
17:25 (chat) Any advice for irl troubles
“That depends what it is, but you can always pretend that irl doesn’t exist and just live on the internet, then that’s a good way of doing it. I sometimes pretend that the internet is the country that I live in”..laglaglag
18:04 (chat) Dean Dobbs is watching this
“Aw. Hi Dean, I like your t-shirts. Can I have one of the heart ones? I could probably organize that myself actually, I’ll just steal one, thank you very much.”
-that was like a weird display of dominance lmao, ‘oh hello I’m tangentially in charge of your new income source, remember?’ but also it’s a bit uncomfortable knowing you’re being watched by a peer type person (as he and other streamer people aka basically just Chris have said a few times) so at least this way everybody can be slightly uncomfortable now .. yay .. I mean he didn't even throw in some deandobbsstore.com promo, damn Dan
19:50 “The thing is with me, I have a vague ethnicity because my grandma was adopted and we have no idea where she’s from, so if I go outside for 2 days, I burn like toast. So I have to try very hard to kind of never go outside. If I ever try to actively tan, then TSA won’t let me into America anymore."
22:20 (chat) Talk about Playlist
“There’s a lot of conventions, and I’m like, sometimes I feel like— Conventions are very expensive and I wonder what is the fun that people get out of panels and performances. If you’re somebody that really cares about the community or the industry, or you’re a creator and make YT videos, then panels and Q&As and those things are really interesting. I feel like there should be more high-budget, performancey festival-y things.”
“I feel like there could be more kind of, events, you know, that aren’t just the same kind of convention”
- I don’t know what I’m -ing about, but just in case
26:45 (chat) Did you read the birthday card I gave you at Playlist?
“We have read all the letters and kept them and shipped it all back and, my god, we have so much storage.”
-do they actually have air conditioning now though is my only question
42:55 (chat) How was your holiday?
“It was like a half holiday, I had two days outside. I read a book called I Am Pilgrim, my mother recommended it to me, it’s very good."
47:13 “That’s what I want to do this week, I want to have some time by myself not talking to anyone, interacting with anyone, thinking about it.”
47:30 “I have to try to not be too… thinking for ages about: Who am I? What am I doing with my life? What is my personality? I’m making these YT videos, well what is a YT video? What is entertainment? What is creativity? What is the point of anything? Should I just be trying to make people laugh? Think? Feel? I don’t know, how do I do that? Do I do it by myself?” etc
51:38 “I just really, really appreciate Harry Styles as a person, who’s always been so mysterious and an enigma. ‘Cause you know me, I’m not mysterious, I know I’m probably more mysterious than some other internet personalities ‘cause I like never tweet or do anything and you’re like, ‘What is Dan doing, honestly'. But Harry Styles is just a complete mystery. So I just feel blessed to have a Harry Styles album that’s just him giving us this creativity from this personality that I like."
59:27 “I’ve realized that in a way, what I do is just publicly not have any idea what I’m doing with my life, and that kind of is the content that I create. So maybe if I ever became emotionally stable and had an idea of what my purpose in life was, maybe my appeal would be lost entirely. But then what does that mean? Is my purpose to just constantly be in a free fall? Who knows, it’s all fun."
