GOD. DAMN. Do i need to say any more? With me doing my entry log series which I genuinely want to finish one day, I don't think I can say TOO MUCH about my past in the phandom. uhg. i love dan and phil. I will never get over the way they literally raised me, or the way they helped explain my mental health years later, or any of it. i joined the phandom at 13, and left around 14-15. i joined the musical theatre fandom, and i just genuinely kinda... grew up i guess? i dont know how I forgot about them. Fuck, i've MET THEM. I traveled 13 hours with the baggy clothes and pajamas on my back and had to buy new clothes in LA because my manic ass didn't plan at ALL. they were my everything, and i knew everything. i watched their radio shows, and i commented on every video, and even to this day, i have every single one of dan's photos liked on instagram. HOW did i stop following them everywhere?
i guess, maybe, it's because they stopped posting a lot. i left around 2017-2018, so content wasn't like what it is now. But the thing is.. i remember dystopia daily dropping...and i didn't watch it. I DONT KNOW WHY. I feel burdened about that to this day. I could've joined the twitter phandom a looong time ago. but namely the reason I didnt? I was a GH fan page. I was dedicated to her, and hearing her story, and relating to it as an autistic individual. I was "busy" i guess. preoccupied with fandom business. I don't know what I was thinking, honestly. it was dumb. i should've just watched dan and phils content sooner.
well, i watched the hard launch. we ALL DID. EVERYONE. even locals, which as someone who's been in the twitter fandom for nearly half a year now, and have 3 years before that under my belt, I feel I can call people that. These people are IN OUR PHOUSE AND THEY NEED TO LEAVE. there was this one post on twt of a phandom member talking about how happy they were to have their patreon shouted out at the end credits where the list of patreon members, but they didn't add THAT context. they just posted a photo of the credits with their name circled. and then TONS OF BOT FOLLOWERS FLOODED IT ASKING IF IT WAS THE J*FF EP**IEN LIST??????????????????? WHY ARE YOU IN OUR HOUSE!! GET OUT!! YOURE STEALING FROM US AND WE DONT LIKE YOU. all that being said, if you want to join the fandom and wont disrespect people, feel free to! it's very welcoming.
