#phil: what problems :DD

This might be controversial, I don't know. But I honestly don't like Dan's content post coming out nearly as much as pre-BIG. It used to be silly -yes- but relatable videos with one or two edgy jokes thrown in. Now it's ALL "I'm gay, horny and depressed and the world is ending but we also kind of deserve it" ... I know that last part has a lot to do with We're all doomed and Dystopia Daily - like the clue is in the names, I get it. But when it's all jokes like that... where is the lightheartedness? Where is the fun? Where is the relief from the problems of the world? Pre-BIG Dan at least had a better balance with that. Anyway, rant over. Hope it made sense.
mmm normally i'd ignore this kind of ask because it's nuanced and i don't want a dozen more hot takes in my inbox but i get that you're not just criticizing dan as a person but more his content shift so (many) thoughts under the cut:
i think first and foremost it's hard to gage dan as a content creators post BIG because the only content he's consistently made has been dystopia daily and wad (discounting gay & not proud because...you know...)
it's also hard to compare him to his content pre BIG since: 1) the video format is different- DD is a scripted persona heavy talk show format that's more commentary on culture than personal experiences 2) he's not supplementing DINOF with liveshows/regular social media posts + gaming channel videos that showed different (usually softer or more lighthearted) sides of dan and gave the audience a more well rounded perception of him as a person
which i think is one of the biggest ""issues"" people have with DD. it's not even necessarily the content itself (though i doubt anyone would say DD is their favorite content by any stretch), but the fact that the main source of perceiving dan is this heavily edited persona that's a bit too detached from real life daniel howell? because yeah like you said, we know he has a lighthearted side, we know he's actually very kind and thoughtful; however, dystopia daily is about the content, not dan as a person. the product isn't himself anymore which is a massive shift from old content. about dystopia daily as a concept- like i said, the reception from long time subscribers has been basically "i don't love this but i love you and am excited to see you again". it's not BAD it's just not what people watch dan for? it's definitely not something i would click on or enjoy from anyone else, but i love seeing dan in anything and supporting him. and some of it is good! there are some rewatches in there! but yeah if you didn't know him prior to DD you might assume this was just another ~generic angry rich white guy complaining about the world to be edgy~
i don't agree with you that it's ALL "i'm gay, horny, and depressed" and might even say it's not a crime if it was? dan spent the first decade of his career having to edit himself and if he needs a professional second puberty to feel better then go off! am i excited for him to explore more topics or stories or formats?? like absolutely!! but i'm not angry about this era of him getting his bearings. did i love him pretending he doesn't like/has never been around kids when we know for a fact he does? no it felt weird and forced but i get his thinking that he wants DD to be detached from dan. "where's the fun"?- i will say that this year in particular we've seen more of dan's personality online! like the silly little instastories and tweets, he's sharing more about his life (like seriously who would have bet he'd post anything about their japan trip????), him in phil's video + the hair clip. and it's just like the biggest breath of fresh air because that's our dan!!! that laugh!! i know that guy!!! and i do feel like he's ready to incorporate letting people see more sides of him again after giving himself the space and boundaries to readjust after a massive life change. but there have still been bits of him this whole time! the few liveshows he did on tour were fun, him at the tour preshows was PEAK classic dan and he was truly the sweetest during his m&gs (seriously i cannot recommend enough checking out the preshow compilations playlist on youtube or meetdnp on twitter because it's just....god it's so fucking nice to see him being so fucking nice and remembering why he really is special). check out the idb instastories playlists because there are so many gems from the past couple years people forget about!!
i know it hit harder because dan is such a LIGHT and it felt like we lost it for awhile. he didn't lose the kindness or silliness or creativity, he's still dan! he's older and not the same person he was in 2014, but also who is? i'm not the same person i was in my 20s which is a great thing!
change can feel scary, but dan's entire genetic makeup didn't change. i totally get if DD isn't your thing and that is perfectly fine! but i will say if you're mourning the other sides of him, you've got plenty of examples that aren't current main channel videos. i do believe we'll be let back in even more soon though :)

Yeah in my opinion Phil would still be up for some dapg and podcast and regular joint content and whatnot because he knows that 1) their audience (at least what’s left of it) loves it, 2) HE loves it, 3) Dan loves it. The problem is the usual: Dan wants to do something big and important so he can be taken seriously or whatever, but let’s be real — his attempts so far have led to mixed responses. The book? Wasn’t that great, we can say it now. DD? Still trying to figure out what it was for other than promo for the tour (and the content itself wasn’t good and so 2016). I still can’t believe he decided to ditch the gaming channel and joint content for *gestures vaguely* that. I wish him well and I’ll always root for him, but he really needs someone to give him career advice
i can't believe you're pulling me back with this shit redhgfs i was peacefully existing for weeks not thinking about Dan's failing career ffs. god help me!
RIGHT!!!!! all of what you said! not only career advice but also a reality check, and i mean it in a very nice way. i guess we can agree that he grew out of youtube and doesn't want to do it anymore (partially because of what happened with youtube originals. fuck them). and that's okay. and wanting something bigger, more serious, conceptual, and right for him is also okay. i support that. but every piece of, let's say, work he was trying to do outside youtube turned out to be tied to youtube anyway. and not because he wasn't trying hard enough (well, debatable), but because most of his experience that he is willing to talk about is either already mentioned on the platform or happened because of his youtube career. and also it's the best place to promote whatever he is doing, so he can't escape it unless he hires a marketing team and invests thousands of dollars in a real promo campaign. PHYSICAL as well (non-existent billboards and posters for wad shows will haunt me to death).
the book. i have a question (lots of them, but whatever). have you read it? and if yes, was it interesting from a fan's pov? and god, would i love to know the opinions of people who aren't familiar with Dan and his content. i bought the book in 2021, can't make myself read it because i'm afraid to get annoyed at him repeating himself.
yeah, i also can't believe he is too fucking stubborn to return to what clearly works for us and him with Phil. because it can be a side thing, and he can focus on his stand-up bullshit at the same time. on the other hand, i watched Lilly's interview with Anthony about how her late night show was taking ALL of her time and she couldn't continue to make youtube content. and i thought, maybe Dan is in the same situation. his new projects take everything? but there's a difference! he is not shooting 2-3 episodes per day. and for wad he delegated lots of work to other people. some of them did a shitty job, but that's a different topic. that's why i would pay my own money for dnp to talk about the work processes in detail. that could explain where all these weeks and months go. dd was shot within a few months, partly during the tour. so even that didn't take that much time. and i know there are scripts, and logistics, and rehearsals, and pitches to networks or whatever, and he is probably doing a lot of manager's work himself sometimes. but damn, math is not mathing.

Ahoy :DD If it won't be any problem for you, can I please request a drabble with Apothecary Witch and cWilbur? I really enjoy reading your stuff, you're a very good writer :) Hope you have a nice day/night, wishing you all the best things❤
Hello!! :D Awww shucks! Thank you for the request! I hope you're having a good day/night as well!
~~~~~~~
Apothecary Reader x cWilbur
Tumblr media
The gentle music emitted from the old radio that sat tucked away in the back corner of the kitchen. Your hands skimmed over the faded away pages of your leather bound book, humming along to the enticing music. Wilbur sat not to far, on an old stool where the leather would peel from age and the dark oak wood would creak as he leaned back.
The silence was inviting and peaceful, as Wilbur flipped pages of his own book and sometimes he would peak over to watch you work with ease. Like seconded hand nature you tossed the burnet and blackberry leaves into the boiling pot of water, as your eyes were focused on the cook book.
"What are you making?" Wilbur spoke up softly, as he shut his book and rested it on his lap, shuffling his legs in the creaky stool. "Trying new teas, Phil was intrigued by my last batch" You hummed back gracefully as you took a seconded to look back and smile at him.
He smiled back, raising himself off the seat, placing his book on the chair and walking over to loom over you as you worked. Both of your bodies swayed to the music, he kept his hands by his side as he watched you, a small hint of fascination in his gaze. As the water started to bubble over the top, you quickly turned down the heat and gestured to the glass jars above Wilbur's head.
"Could you get them for me?" You asked, tilting your head up.
Wilbur matched your gaze, nodding softly, as he looked back to open the wooden cabinet and grab a handful of glass jars and placing them down by the stove counter top. You nodded in thanks as you swiftly scooped up the hand-crafted ladle that sat idly by. You continued to pour the new experimental tea in the glass jars and gathered the silver lids that were sitting by the cook book and screwing them on adding a bonus rope and red coloured candle wax to the top of the lid, with pressed flowers.
" I heard that you make scar cream for Quackity." Wilbur piped up as you were placing the jars in the woven basket which you pulled from under the stove.
You hummed, nodding. "I do, did you want some?"
Wilbur smiled, nodding. "yeah, I heard your peppermint one, smells nice"
You give him a closed eye smile, chuckling before shuffling to the door.
"Well, I know my new order when I get back" You joked, before exiting. Leaving the man to sit back on his stool and wait for you to come home again.
----
Aaa tyty for the request!!
I thought I should add a reference to Quackity's scar cream lmao :))
Remember requests are still open!

ROYALTY AU, I LOVE THOSE Pac as a king, Fantasminha, you are amazing for doing this Let my boy be a king
Phil is just on the wall, he's a wall boi
Talking about our fellow Felipe Minecraft... HE'S EGGZA NOW I love when they simple pick a word and put a za in the end Dadza, eggza, crowza, killza
I would love to know more about the each kingdoom when you have time
And Cellbit and Bagi... I can only think of Cellbit going to the kingdom only to people immediately recognizing him as Bagi's brother and he being confused Unlikely to be what happens but it was a funny thought
I will hear anything you have to say about your aus, I love all of them
Forever: "I won't tell anyone about the black matter thing, nobody will know-" Also Forever: "hey pac, I want to tell you something"
Them<3
"I wanted to let you know, it's favela for favela"
"Yeah, a bit shattered but we will glue the pieces back"
Piranha duo my beloved I love that name KKKKKKKKKKKKK
"I NEED THOSE ARROMBADOS TO NOT BREAK MY SISTEM, THE DEMOCRACY IS PART OF MY SISTEM"
"IT WAS A ACCIDENT"
"If there's a mod that put a pan, I will find a way to make the pan make everyone safer" That's my president
New mods maybe? New mods:D? Forever is talking about asking for new mods
Unfortunally, apparently the president happens to have a problem where... HIS BLOOD IS PITCH BLACK??????? I'm going to look for a clip of when he talked to Cucurucho But man, my boy is not okay
Also I heard that Ranboo will be the gm of a rpg for the first time? I saw it once a few days ago, and I if remember well, Aimsey, Slime and Cellbit will be participating?
One of the things I would have never expected a year ago was Cellbit and Ranboo metting and playing, is nice to see how many doors qsmp opened And I still not over Cellbit's chat having a gay panic and getting shy because of Sneeg's voice
Forever asking for mod names on the chat Fit just went "minecraft sex mod" Another day on the lgbtqsmp island, imagine the things they could do with this
Also I heard fit said, out loud, he likes pac? Like, everybody knew, but he said it?
At least some couples are working I heard Bagi and Tina kissed, on the cheek, but still
Guapoduo hopefully will be just fine once they are together again
I just remembered the time I was doing a rp with some friends and there these those two characters who were having a gay panic since they met and I say off the rp, because at some point one of them called the other gatinha once, "imagine if she starts calling her gatinha" and my friend just went "SAPHIC GUAPODUO"
Pac is talking with chat about and someone said orespawn That would be chaotic Sadly I think that mod is only avaliable to 1.7.2, I remember watching videos with that mod but never played 1.7.2 used to be my favourite version to play with mods actually I just liked it, thaumcraft was fun to play in that version, I'm don't know much about the newer versions tho, didn't play much
-Plate anon
Philza's name is so nicknameable i love it. it's like roier adding -ioer to the end of anything and that's him now. i love it we need more of it XDD
FELIPE MINECRAFT!!! OFFICIAL BRAZILIAN!!! YAHOOOO
vv quick about bagi and cellbit's kingdom >:DD : it's called Orparon inspired by Ordem Paranormal ofc and they worship four deities! Knowledge, death, blood, and chaos and have a very high belief in the paranormal. All citizens of the kingdom have the oppertunity to pick which deity they want to like be apart of/to worship and that's like a super important part of who they are. It usually relates to what sort of magic that person will do and learn as well!! The royal family kept what Cellbit looked like super hidden because they feared people trying to imitate him but he has the classis white hair streak still. Bagi's hair is flipped like her hc character so all white with a brown streak in the front!! ALSOOO Pac's kingdom is called Chume kingdom and they consider magic like a sort of science so it's highly researched and studies >:DD Because Pac is a prince/to be king he gets his own lab and greenhouse where he grows magical plants in the castle. He makes his own poisons (for fun) and antidotes for a lot of them so if anyone wants to assassinate him they will have to pick something that isn't poison related lmao
i love pirananahduo :')) they've grown so much closer recently it's so sweet (before purgaotry esp during the happy pills arc) i love seeing pac on forever's streams TT
I love you mr. president. his blood and black he is likely dying on the inside to an infection no one knows the cure to OR knows about and yet he wants to find a way to make frying pans safer/have people be safer TT i love him
YES!! Ranboo's Subathon starts tomorrow (December 13 I think) and on one of the days during his subathon they will be playing DND!! i have no idea if it's tomorrow or if it's like.....on another day but THEY ARE PLAYING TOGETHER AND IM SO EXCITED!!!!! AAAH ITS GOING TO BE SO FUN I JUST KNOW IT TT <33 the qsmp has opened so many doors for so many creators it's so nice to see :"))
SAPPHIC GUAPODUO OUTSOLD OG GUAPODUO!!! so sorry kings but woman are better u-u it's just facts
i am not smart enough to figure out minecrat mods so ive never played with any kjsndvas my younger brother plays a lot more then me, he use to play a lot using the origins mod. i use to watch a lot of mod vidoes/playthrough with modded minecraft tho

I was cautiously optimistic for the new gaming channel video and I can say that it did NOT disappoint. It was like nothing had changed, with the notable exception of them being more open ofc. I was afraid Dan would try to force moments and not seem like he was actually having fun, which has been a problem of mine with his other recent content (like Daniel I’m not going to enjoy myself if you’re clearly not happy on camera), but it was just natural easy banter!! And they were both enjoying themselves!! Reminding me why the joint content was such a comfort to me in the first place. A big part of that was them not afraid of being silly, and it feels like we’re back to that.
I really, really enjoyed the video and I think its because I took a step back, and reevaluated what I enjoyed about them, and I got to watch it with a whole new mindset.
Dan was funny and relaxed, which was something I thought I would never see again personally. I hate that I don't trust Dan anymore, but I was pleasantly surprised by his behavior. Phil? Well, its Phil! He was just as silly and charming as ever (he graduated to fuckland, didn't you know?) and overall the video gave me some hope for the future...
A future where we can bury the fuckery of wad and dd deep in the recesses of our brains only to be brought up as a cautionary tale of hubris, ego, and moral decay.

*pulls out spoon* kindly asking u to share knowledge of epic bench bugs au <3
:DD!!
(aight dsmpblr if you don’t know bug fables i Highly recommend checking it out it do be good.)
okay so i haven’t actually shared too much of it over here on tumblr(or anywhere really,, fkdmdkdmr) but the basic idea that i have said before is that it’s a dream smp bug fables au,,, with the bench trio taking the place of team snakemouth. none of them quite fill the roles Exactly,, but they are based vaguely on each member,, tubbo being kabbu, tommy being vi, and ranboo being leif. only ranboo keeps the bug type of the original role(if you’d played the game you’d know why(technically speaking bc this is an au i Could change that,,, but i don’t wanna,, dkdmdkdmdk. ‘sides, i like mothboo,,)),, while tubbo becomes a bee and tommy becomes a damselfly. originally i called him a dragonfly,, but turns out!! the npc i was referencing for his design(riz) was not, in fact, a dragonfly,,,, and i do Not wanna redesign him i Just got used to his design. so. he be damselfly now <3.
and speaking of designs,,, art (and a lot more infodumping) below!
Tumblr media
color theory my beloathed <3
yes tubbo has a bazooka. he deserves it. also it ain’t shown here but tommy gets knives.
i also thought about who other characters would be,,,, thinking queen elizant ii would maybe be eret? with maki being foolish bc eternal duo? i also wanna say karl be neolith bc of his whole library thing,, but i think someone close to tubbo might make more sense,, since kabbu and neolith are pretty close in the game (read: gay bugs).
thinking mothiva and zasp would be wilbur and techno respectively? except wilbur is a lot less toxic(more teasing),,, and they are actually friends.
oh also micheal is here too!! (the piglin not the mcchill) he be chompy ^v^,,, thinking he might be a little rotten,, since he is a zombie piglin,,,
now back to the bench trio,, attack styles!!! i thought out some attack styles for them,, kinda like how kabbu is a tank,, vi focuses on long range,, and leif uses ice powers. thinking tubbo might be a hard hitter with his bazooka,, but as a consequence he might have a low hp or it takes a long while for him to attack. tommy hits fast,, and a lot,, might be able to take a lot hits,,, but his attacks alone don’t do a lot of damage. despite being the one i think about the most, i don’t actually have a lot of ideas for ranboo’s attacks. all i know is that he’s got powers kind of like an enderman. i Was thinking he could be a healer of sorts? but that does not relate to enderman at all so. wh. might be able to blast some sort of orb thing? like the enderdragon?? shrugs???
speaking of enderman powers,, he can also teleport! and i’m debating whether or not to keep the water allergy,,,, bc like. the bugs in the game already have an aversion to water, because. bugs. and not to mention,, uh. [stares at the end of chapter 1]. yeah. yeah no if he was allergic to water he would either be Dead or need medical attention fkfmdkfmfknff.
anyway switching topics once again (look at me so good at transitions),, muze!!! thinking niki could take the place of muze. niki is also muse. also also instead of it being a marriage it’s more of a sibling relationship. if you know what i’m talking about,, ;D! if you don’t, suffer <3. ash and zachary both take the place of tod, and no one really replaces the father(wiki calls him grandpa),, he is Nerfed. no longer exists. instead there is awkward cousin john john. yes i am bringing the tales from the smp characters into this, otherwise this would be Weird.
wilbur and niki are friends that is importent to note for me. also jack is,,, somewhere, idk.
the captain and crumb are also here!!! heck yeah!!!!!! they are both beetles(or crumb might be a fruity bug),, and they are tubbo’s (adoptive) family. i would also like to reemphasize the fact that tubbo replaces kabbu. :D!!!!!!!!
unrelated to that last point. the beast. the beast is relatively the same but it’s coloring is more like the enderdragon. why? idk man i just thought it’d be Neat.
oh,, and the wasp king? dream,, 100% dream. (and puffy is(was?) the wasp queen,,)
and phil,,, thinking he could take the place of acolyte aria? and kristen could be venus!!! don’t know if i wanna fully replace the harvest part of her godly status, or add that to it,,, but either way she is also thought to be in charge of death :D! and maybe also primes idk jfmfkdmd. do i know what being the god of primes entails? absolutely not.
also,, this ain’t related to anything from the game,, but i was thinking phil might have been a warrior back in the day? the angel of death :DD!! was teamed with techno,, mayhaps,, before phil retired and tech teamed with wil.
and,,, that’s pretty much it, in terms of characters, i think? aside from a small idea of bad being The Wizard,,,, and also skeppy just. Being There. you simply cannot separate them.
and simply because my brain is hyperfixated on them at the moment,, and i already added tftsmp characters here,,, ran and jackie. they are just. Here. ran might be some sort of thief,, either with whoever replaces astotheles(maybe ponk??? only really thinking that because of,, well. [gestures vaguely]. yeah.),, a separate group,, or just on his own. and jackie. jackie is just There. to cause problems on purpose.
and uh,,, okay Now that’s all i got. aside from doodles during school but that would require me getting Up and taking pictures of them, and. no <3. that being said i Do have pictures of some of em.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
if you don’t know bug fables lore simply ignore the two niki’s you don’t need to know about that ;DDD!!!
also idk if i’ll actually add enderwalking in here,,, but like. bogos binted, am i right, folks?

Need get these thoughts down before my 1:1 with my manager at 1pm...
I've been stretched quite thin lately, and as a result, I've been screwing up a lot, which is what it took to make actually sit back and reflect.
I juggle MarketStandard and Deal Terms Study just in my "spare" time. The Prof Svcs Group just made a bunch of change requests of the NS team to modify the form that feeds MarketStandard, and I had to analyze those - multiple times, as things kept changing - and create tickets for the work needed to respond to those changes. I have been having to give recommendations on the best way to handle multiple MarketStandard changes, testing, and deployment - multiple times - and received no answers. I feel like I have the responsibilities of a product owner with no actual authority to get things done, and with my actual ticketed work on top of it.
The reason these come to me is Because I Know How They Work. It doesn't go through normal channels, it comes to me through a slack message from Sara Oliva, or an email from Michael Perry or Jaime Merlano.
The answer to this seems like it would be knowledge transfer. The problems here are that knowledge transfer, both the preparation for and the actual act of, take time. Also, since MS/DTS don't have a product team - who am I going to transfer the knowledge to? There's no home! I would need actual time carved out for this process, time which I can't really ask for because there's no logical end to the process. Another issue with knowledge transfer is that this work usually comes to me on the fly - and this is just a sorry truth, but to complete projects with a certain amount of pressure (and these generally come with pressure because they're "off the books" and don't conform to our sprint commitments) and to have to explain the system to someone is more work, more brainpower, it's more draining.
Since this work comes to me through these back-channels, I try to prioritize it, but I don't have the information that real product owners have when they do that. This week, one of my many screwups was that I took on a ticket with a change to the ns_deal table for the DTS team. Turns out Phil had a ticket to change the ns_deal table for PUP as well. I am so relieved that I just so happened to notice the new column in the table before I blithely overwrote all of Phil's changes. It freaks me out so bad to think how if I weren't a weirdo who had the columns of ns_deal practically memorized in my brain, that's exactly what would have happened.
And even so, I ended up causing a lot of extra discussion and effort for Phil and Jacek, even though in taking on the ticket myself (instead of assigning it to the DD team) I had been trying to take work off their plate. This was a mistake and a call I shouldn't have put myself in the position to make.
So to take another step back, the answer to this seems to be - they need a product team. I've been requesting that these be assigned to a team, even if it's my team, for months now, and I'm not alone. That way knowledge transfer can happen, and changes will be transparent and weighed against everything else on our plate.
My brain is also just... out of room. I am starting to drop balls, make stupid mistakes. Jaime requests a data pull with new fields, Chris Letang is asking about invalid industries in MS, Stuart's asking about SQL in a MS network call, Michael Perry is asking about the NS form changes... I left a transaction affecting ns_deal open and tanked the dev db for everyone in a moment of thoughtlessness. That's a thing I need to work on, is not multitasking... but I usually jump to check because I am worried something is broken or someone needs help. It's coming from a good place.
It's all coming from trying to help people. When I get these emails, it's because Jaime and Chris and Sara and Michael Perry just don't have anyone else to go to because MS and DTS don't have a product owner. I don't want to hold up anyone's work or feel like I'm shirking, but now that's it's starting to affect my productivity like this, I need to step back and re-evaluate how much I'm taking on because now it's affecting other people negatively. If they had a product owner to speak to, then I would be left out of the discussion until I needed to be brought in, and I wouldn't be making product-related decisions and recommendations without the knowledge and transparency of a product owner (like saying "sure, I can add those columns to the deal table this sprint" without knowing that Phil was also starting PUP work in the same table).
From the company's perspective - what if I got hit by a bus? All of this knowledge should not reside in me and me more or less alone.
On top of all this, this week, Ops changed a NS process that fed into a Boomi process I created, and I had frantic two days of diagnosing the problem, having to manually parse the files myself, and implement a fix. That's just the way things go, but it was definitely another few straws on my back.
So basically this comes down to trying to separate what I can control (delegating, saying no, looping in other people) and what I can't control (assigning MS and DTS to a product owner). I hate looping in other people because Mitch and Jessica already have like two jobs apiece.

DD: ADBK Cyber Commander
Tumblr media
Epithet: 
The Cyborg Commando
Voice Actor: 
Phil LaMarr
Tribe: 
The Kindred
Biography: Although the Machinations are a formidable force, they're not without their problems. Most notably, despite Perfect Machine King's efforts to make flawless Machines, every so often, some soldiers end up reprogrammed by those crafty enough to pull it off. The repeat offenders in that regard are the Kindred, who've captured and saved the lives of several monsters. Among those saved include today's fighter and protector, the Cyber Commander.
Originally known as Tristan of Redstone, he was formerly a friend of Zelda Georgina, also known as Command Knight. However, he was among those killed by Robotic Knight and his fellow generals Launcher Spider and Metalzoa. But what they did next could be considered sick and unforgivable.
See, Robotic Knight had been experimenting on organic subjects to make minions for the Perfect Machine King, and after the success of the Jinzo brothers, he made several more Tristan included. Put simply, he made Tristan into a war machine, armed with rocket launchers, and a bazooka among other weapons.
However, this particular story has a happy ending; as upon Trap Master's addition to The Kindred, he began a counter-campaign against the Machinations, capturing and reprogramming those under their control. It took some time, since the brainwashed cyborgs could be hard to restrain, but it worked! Tristan was among the first to be reformed, and upon gaining his old memories, he swore to defeat the Machines that made him into a monster. As of these days, he's among those who use their knowledge on the Machinations to free locations under their control.

Hi. original alienation anon here. I'm happy to report that my fears (so far) are unfounded :)
I'm going to try to explain why I found dd to be alienating as succinctly as possible.
I get that he was basically trying to make the YT version of the Eric André show, but it didn't work for me for a number of reasons. Firstly, YT is not a good platform for that kind of content. The Eric André show is on a network that is known for bizarre, offensive shows. YT is not that. It's a personality-driven platform that runs on the parasocial relationships between creators and their audiences. Dan was also not the best person to pull that concept off. Eric André is and always has been known for his chaotic, rude, unlikable persona. Dan is not. He built an audience by being likable and relatable. So for him to suddenly do a total 180 and become this rude, mean, cold person was alienating to me and other viewers who had built a parasocial relationship with the person he presented himself as in his videos.
Secondly, and this is gonna sound harsh, Dan is not as deep as he thinks he is. DD isn't good satire. He basically just made the content he was supposed to be satirizing and dressed it up in this pretentious concept of a dystopian variety show. He clearly was pressured into making those videos to promote WAD and it shows. His commentary on the concepts he talked about was surface level. he didn't say anything that countless video essayists who are smarter and more educated than him haven't already said. I also agree with the person who said it felt overproduced and cheap at the same time.
My third and main problem with DD though, is how mean-spirited it often felt. I watch dnp for light-hearted entertainment. I don't want to watch someone I usually like being a dickhead to their friends and family for 20 minutes, whether it's joking or not. There were times when you could tell that the guest was uncomfortable, but Dan just didn't seem to care? The worst was Louise. I felt so much second-hand embarrassment watching that video. She clearly felt uncomfortable but Dan just kept pushing it. The cringiest part was when he said that thing about the 2012-2014 YT era being nostalgic and Louise said "it wasn't a good time for me. I had a 2 yr old and was going through a divorce." Yikes! That just made Dan come off like a self-absorbed, inconsiderate asshole to me. Obviously we don't know how Louise really felt or what went on behind the scenes but that video left a bad taste in my mouth and completely changed how I viewed Dan.
Here's my conclusion. I think Dan needs to play to his strengths. social commentary and irreverent comedy are not two of them. People like him mainly for 3 reasons; his ability to relate to others through his own personal struggles, his chemistry with Phil, and his aspirational relationship with Phil (whatever the nature of that relationship is). DD pretty much destroyed all of that in one fell swoop. Even though I think that was entirely intentional, it was a very, very bad move. He can't just toss his entire image in the fire and expect it to work out for him. Not without doing the work to win over a new audience, like say, Joji did when he went from being Filthy Frank to a serious, sad-boy musician. I'm glad he got the chance to try new things, even if they didn't work out, but I think he's smart for going back to doing what he's good at and I hope for our sake and his that he sticks to it.
I said succint and then this turned into a whole essay lol. Sorry. I know some people are not going to like what I said, but that's how I feel.
hi! so sorry it took me so long to get to this!
i agree with some things and disagree with others. just so people won't argue with me because of your perception of dd, i'll list disagreements (and the hardest agreements, i guess). but it's totally cool to feel what you feel, and youtube content is made for people to have different opinions and obviously, we have different reactions to intentional harshness and rudeness. also, i'm so so glad you gave dnpgames a chance! we're back and stronger than ever!!
putting under the cut to not disturb the dnpgames euphoria <3
i agree that youtube , and specifically Dan's main channel, wasn't the best place to put this type of content on. maybe his 2nd channel would have been better, but it would have given even less views. so like, the point? because now his main channel looks all over the place. the usual content flow was interrupted by a video trashing youtube and the whole conceptual series of dd. and even dd was interrupted by the 2nd wad trailer and the memes video. right now it looks, dare i say, ugly. if he ever returns to actual youtube content and not promo videos, he will have to swallow this hard pill.
your 2nd reason - agree. but i don't think it's a bad thing, considering the circumstances (dd being made under pressure to somehow promote wad. with limited time and budget). lots of people comment on the same things and happen to give the same remarks. it's fine, it's still interesting to hear. (ironically, that's youtube and its algorithm for you)
hard agree on Dan (almost) destroying his image, especially in relation to dnp™. but we're still here, he can't push us away no matter how hard he tries.
disagreements :))
i think the video with Louise was good. that comment about 2012-2014 (the prime Brit crew times specifically) being nostalgic - i mean, it IS. for some people more, for some people less. it can be nostalgic and not a good time equally. i have personal examples when it's both. and i rewatched that moment. Louise said, "I loved those years for the most part." Dan went on to question WHAT exactly she loved, and only then she had to specify that it wasn't actually that simple. Dan likes to say how simple life was "back then". "back then" being any time in the past lol. "simpler, better times" is a phrase i still quote, and it was said years ago (i don't even remember where). he was rude in the video, but not ruder than with others. motherhood is a more sensitive topic for Louise than for Dan and, may i say, the majority of us. but they are friends, and at the end of the day, she could literally say "shut the fuck up and stop" and that would be accepted.
i also think that Dan would be amazing at social commentary if you give him more time to prepare scripts and find the right tone. his liveshows are a good indicator of that. he wasn't trying to punch anyone with his words while delivering his thoughts. he was giving his opinions and explaining them. 2017 has so many amazing quotes from his liveshows. and none of them felt like dd, despite touching on politics, sexuality, mental health, youtube as a platform, our community, the internet as a job, etc. he can do that, he can comment and criticise without trying to prove something. dd had a concept though. he was that obnoxious character playing by "youtube rules". "youtube likes this, this and this. so i'm gonna do all of it, and you're gonna see how bizarre it looks thrown in your face at once and deal with it." social platforms' algorithms are dystopian, he's got a point. his version of satire isn't ideal and you can clearly see that dd was rushed. and that's unfortunate!
anyway, thank you so much for explaining your dd experience. i'm sure there are people who relate to it. i'm sorry, if i sound rude, or like, pushy. i'm not trying to be. actually, dd is probably the easiest topic to discuss because of how ambiguous it is (in a good way).

Dark Discussions’ fourth annual Meetup in Mystic, Connecticut was a huge success! The DD crew and our friends from The Dorkening enjoyed a couple of meals and a flick, in this case, Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood.
Tumblr media
The DARK DISCUSSIONS and DORKENING crews sport our meetup T-shirts–courtesy of DD’s Mike–pre-movie at the Waterford Regal 9. In case you’re wondering, we’re standing in front of the POP for 47 METERS DOWN: UNCAGED.
Want to know what we thought about Tarantino’s latest (and very polarizing) film? You can listen to the episode here on Stitcher, ITunes, and here: http://www.darkdiscussions.com/Pages/podcast_396.html
If you’d like to check out The Dorkening, you can do that here: https://www.thedorkening.com/ or on their YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChZGjPSLIGecp9a5EmYAykw
I’ll keep you posted on when and where our event will be next year. Here’s photos from our awesome weekend!
Despite leaving work early so I could make the two hour drive and arrive with an hour to spare, it took me four hours to get there. Connecticut has gotten a lot of bad press lately, and it’s well deserved no matter what it’s centered on. Trying to get anywhere in Connecticut is just terrible—don’t drive through this state if you can help it; you’ll always lose several hours in traffic for no reason.
DD crew members Phil (left) and Abe (right) were the first to arrive at Mystic Pizza. Photo by Phil.
Clockwise from left, DD crew members Abe, Eric, and Phil. Photo by Phillip Perron.
I got to Mystic Pizza in such a bad move because of the stressful drive. Mike fixed it all–with a pair of Shark Week glasses! It was the greatest surprise ever!!
My Shark Week glasses from Mike! I love that they came with a protective bag!
So, do my Shark Week glasses look sharp or what? Thanks, Mike?
Me and Abe take our annual selfie
Left to right, Eric and Phil. Eric, who also hosts the Askancity podcast, is wearing last year’s meetup shirt. My husband lost mine and it’s somewhere in my house, or I would’ve been wearing it, too…
Right, DD’s Mike with his wife, Pam.
Against the wall, Leo of THE DORKENING podcast. Wearing that lovely smile is his wife Megan.
DD’s Mike is generous enough to design and give us shirts every year as gifts. This year’s was all about SHARKS (very appropriate, since Discovery Channel’s Shark Week begins on Sunday!)
Eric is obviously making fun of Phil.
Phil checks out his shirt!
Group shot! Left, from front: Abe, Me, Megan, Leo. Right, from front: Phil, Eric, Pam, and Mike.
From left, Abe, Eric, and Phil get ready to take in ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD. Phil has a terrible habit of texting Eric when he’s in a movie, so we figured seating them together would solve this problem.
Pam and Mike get ready to watch the movie. Check out Mike’s Dark Discussion pin with the shark jaws! So great. He gave me one; I wish I’d thought to wear it.
The guys from The Dorkening get ready to take on ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD.
Cheesecakin’ it in the movie theater. In those reclining seats, it’s hard to resist.
These were always my mom’s favorite. I just felt like getting some.
After the film, the group gathers outside for post-game chat.
There’s a whole thing about this. ONCE UPON A TIME … IN HOLLYWOOD took place in the spring and summer of 1969. There were women riding in cars with their feet on the dashboards, and in one scene, Sharon Tate had her shoes off in the movie theater. I remember this actually being a thing in the late 1960s and early 1970s — my mother did it all the time. When we got out of the film, Phil was like, ‘so what was with all the feet on the dashboards? Gross!’ I did this just to make the windshield dirty.
The whole group goes out to dinner at Latitude 41 at Mystic Seaport.
Abe records THE DORKENING crew’s opinions on ONCE UPON A TIME … IN HOLLYWOOD.
We taped our episode at the Panera Bread in Waterford.
From left, Mike, Pam, and Abe at the taping of DD’s episode on ONCE UPON A TIME … IN HOLLYWOOD.
Eric and I always do a selfie on the Sunday. Last year it was at Paul’s Pasta Shop in Groton; this time, it’s at Panera Bread.

What are your favorite ships? c: (OC ships of course)
YO (it’s gonna be long, I’m sorry)
Gotta say it - Scott x Helen is my absolute fave, it’s so obvious jdbfksb
I’m very emotional about Steven x Phil, Charlie x Rachel, Chuck x Melanie, Scott x Emily, Sarah x Elisabeth, Elisabeth x Vinnie, Vinnie x Luca, Jenny x Severin, Glen x Sally, a few of my OCs shipped with Ędi’s, a few I can’t talk about yet…
There are also my guilty pleasures (more or less) like Johnny x Joanne, Mason x Kevin and also Jay Kay x Scarlet who are like created for a story that I might one day do as a webcomic but I promise nothing, it just happened when I felt lonely and very gay jdbfksbdf
But I can’t forget about crack ships! Helen x Vasilisia, Melanie x Jenny, Scott x Jack (…..very lowkey and also now it’s far less because it was for my autotherapy and the whole problem is finally gone, hooray), Mason x Russel, Phil x Scott, Ryan x Nishant, Mark x Steven… we also have this AU with Ędi where Scott, Mark, Helen and Heather are the same age, and boys are together&girls are together because it came out of the realisation that they are each other’s “types” but it’s just a silly AU (but I really like this one jsdbfksbkf) ;;;;;
Welp, I have much more ships but there are those that I don’t even talk about because the characters are underdevelopped/come from a story that needs to be build up more/are a bit spoilerish so ;;;
Thank you a lot!! :’DD

Thank God for Dunkin Donuts
    You had been in Pittsburgh for two weeks now, it had been a bit hectic for you and Jake as y’all had to move your stuff in and start work right away. Things were still quite unpacked at home but you both were doin well in learnin quickly. The police department welcomed y’all with open arms and were amazed how great you two were with your performances. It had been working 12 hours shifts for four days straight and havin three days off. It was your last day of work for the week as you and Jake were patrolling around downtown near the arena. Everythin was at peace as you and Jake decided to hit up the nearest Dunkin Donuts.  
“Cmon (Y/N) lets get some donuts” Jake said excitedly
“Amen to that Jake, but hopefully nobody on sees us or they’ll want some haha”
“I don’t care I just want food haha.”
You parked in the front and walked in wonderin what you’d want to get for a snack. As you two ordered and were about to pay, you saw a man through the corner of your eye come up.
“It’s on me guys, I appreciate your protection” he said as you realized you’ve heard that voice somewhere. You turned to look and saw that it was Sidney.
“Oh hey Cros, thanks man” Jake said delightedly
“No problem, its nice to see you guys” Sid said cheerily, “You guys want to sit with us?” he asked pointing to a table in the back where some of the Pens were.
You guys sat next to them but knew you couldn’t stay long as you were still on the clock
“So how have y’all been?” you asked the boys
“Pretty good!” “Great” they replied
“Why you no come to game?” Geno asked
“Well we just moved here so we’ve been swamped with the house and our work” you replied “Plus, I didn’t know how to contact y’all” you added.
“We?” asked Geno as he looked at Sid discreetly
“Yeah my partner Jake and I moved here from Dallas” you said nonchalantly
You noticed that Sid’s face got serious and a little hurt
“Wait I thought you were single?” asked Phil
“I am guys haha, Jake is my partner, as in my co-worker” I explained
“Ohhhh” “Good to know” they replied while lookin at Sid
Why do they keep looking at Sid?
“(Y/N) and I became great friends while we were in the academy y’all, she’s a great person but I don’t see her anymore than a friend, or more like a sister, I got offers as well but thought why not move out here with (Y/N) as we work great together” Jake said.
Dispatch goes off
Location on Officer (Y/L/N)
“Officer (Y/L/N) reportin over”
Where are you guys?
“uHHH we’re at DD over” I replied as I looked at Jake
And you didn’t invite us?!
Bring some donuts for later over
“I told you Jake” I said laughing
“Well darnit you were right bout that” he said crackin up
“Negative we just left”
If you don’t we’ll keep callin you Wonder Woman
“Fine”
Thank you Princess Diana
“Jake you told them?!” I looked at him in surprise
“NOOOO”
“Yeah that wasn’t stereotypical at all” Phil said chuckling
“We better get goin before more of them order more donuts” I said sarcastically as I picked up my trash
“Thanks a lot guys and Sidney thanks for the food, I appreciate it” I said as I saw Geno nudge Sid and Phil “coughed”
“Ughh yeah no problem” Sidney replied rather in a low voice
I noticed Jake was smirkin while lookin at Sid and me
“Ask herrrr” Geno said grittin his teeth
“Hey uhh (Y/N) when would you like to come to a game?” Sidney asked
“When I can get a day off haha just kiddin, I’m off for the next three days if y’all have a game I’d be glad to come, but can I invite a few friends?” I replied
“Only if they’re co-workers hahah just kidding” teased Phil, resulting in a dirty look from Sid
“Jeez guys I AM single haha
“Okay good, I mean yeah you can invite friends, how does 5 tickets sounds for tomorrow night?” Sid asked
“That’s great” Jake cutted in
“Yeah that’s great Sidney, I’d appreciate it” I said
“Cool well, I’ll put your name under will call so you can get your tickets just bring ID, and try to come early, we might give you guys a tour” Sid explained happily
“That’d would be awesome Sidney, thank you! We’ll see y’all tomorrow, thanks again!” I said as we waved goodbye and back to the car
“See ya later Princess Diana!!” Phil said loud enough for me to hear
Thank God for Dunkin Donuts

this is quite long (1100 words or so) and i wanted to write more than this 😔😔
so you know those like, stories of pta parents nshit??? imagine that but with sbi yeah trust me on this trUST ME-
and so in this au i guess, puffy is school therapist and sam is like a teacher.
puffy and sam are like, mega best friends that have known eachother since highschool or sumn yeah??
anyways, tommy has been getting into fights and arguments with his classmates for whatever reason, and the staff have called dadza to come to meetings and shit but its always tommys oldest brother wilbur (im not projecting being the oldest siblling in my family and being forced to mature quicker wdym-)
sam, being tommys favorite teacher ofc, decides "mmm, yeah hes mine now," and we get some nice dad!sam bc its waht tommy and us deserve.
but tommy is still getting into these fights so they send him to the school therapist and she takes one look at this scrawny, scuffed up kid, with holes in his shirt and dirt on his pants and ALSO decides "thats my son now,"
of course sam and puffy find out that tommy doesnt have the best home life but "its okay, he doesnt hit us so its not abuse :)" and theyre like "mmMMMmn no tommy thats still abuse sorta" bc having a father that doesnt pay attention to any of his kids is abuse im pretty sure. and they decide together that theyre gonna try to get the rights of tommy, or something to ATLEAST bee a semi-gaurdigan bc they love him now and thats their son >:(
and somehow they manage it, they get shared gaurdianship over tommy with dadza. i dont know how bc i am but a humble person in need of dad!sam and momma!puffy
BUT they do, and now whenever tommy gets into fights, its one of them (or both) that comes to the meeting. the other staff dont question it bc they know how intimidating sam and puffy are about their "children" (its mainly just kids that they pick up and are like "ur my child now" but nO ONE HAS TO KNOW THAT)
sam and puffy both start asking about these fights and how they can helpn all, partly bc its their job but mainly bc they love him as their own. n slowly but surely they help tommy not get into fights. most of the time its the other student who starts it bc they know that tommy is easliy angered but there are times when tommy starts it (mainly for good reason tho and they just dont have the heart to punish him, just softly scorn)
one day tho, tommy gets into a fight,and the staff start the whole dance of calling dadza, him not picking up and just letting puffy or sam go in place.
EXCEPT he pickes up this time, and it desolves into fucking CHAOS in the office. like, the whole office knows that tommy is sam and puffys kid and so they gather around this one front desk worker who is the unfortunate soul who has to talk to him and are like "is that him??? im gonna wring his neck when i see him" cuz the office has seen tommy in there one too many times with a black or bloody nose or both.
and so they tell him that his son has been in a fight and they need him to come to a meeting for it, and dadzas like "yeah sure, what do i need to be there?" and they tell him, but they realize they have a problem on their hands, bc philza NEVER fucking picks up - and by never, u mean this is probably the first time they heard his voice-and bc philzanever picksuo they usually just tell puffy or sam that they have a meeting wayyy before they call philza bc the outcome is always the sam.
so they call up both sam and puffy with major reluctance bc they have a feeling they know whatll happen. n theyre like "hey, uh, so you dont need to attent that meeting for tommy today. his dad is coming in-" "oh, HELL NO, that fucker is NOT going in place of us. expect to see me AND sam at the meeting today" sam is very similar except with more swears which is a tab bit surprising but whatever yknow?
and so the meeting rolls around and tommy is sitting inbetween sam and puffy but notices theres another chair to the right of sam and fucking dadza walks in, and tommy feels his heart stop he feels puffy holding his left hand and tryring to get him to take deep breaths but his anxiety is so overwhelming and he hasnt seen his dad in almost 3 months and whyisheherewhyishehere-
so tommy is having, like a silent anxiety attack as we all do. and sam i scowling at philza and hes like borderline growling and baring his teeth at him lol
philza takes a seat next to sam with reluctance and tries to look around him to see tommy but sams like "nuh uh, fucker. leave my son alone." and philzas like " 'my son?!' " before the meeting starts
(also the other family who tommy got into a fight with is all watching this go down bc theyre highkey confused bc "sam and puffy arent tommyy parents???" bc this is definitely not the first time tommy has punched their kid)
during the meeting tommy comes down off his high of his anxiety attack and is really exhausted, and whenever hes asked a question he whispers it puffy and she says it for him. philza doesnt get a word in and before he knows it the meeting is over.
as they stand up, he tries to get tommy to come with him to go home but sam is faster than him and he goes "hey tommy! lets go and do some crosswords in my classroom yeah?" and tommy is for it, one bc he loves doing crosswords and itll help him calm down a bit more, and two he does n o t want to speak to philza.
n they leave and philza is left with puffy and the other staff member who are minding their fucking business bc heaven knows they dont want to cross puffy whens she in a rage. and they all expect like an outburst of anger and yelling, and them having to pull her away so she doesnt murder him where he stands but no, its not that at all.
philza turns to puffy to say something but he stops dead in his tracks when he sees the way shes looking at him, theres an inferno of rage building up inside her, but she just goes,"he's not your son." and leaves.
*holds this gently* thank you for the,,,.. thank you for the food i’m. i’m soft now. :( anyway haha fuck c!phil he can go suck a cows ass amiright!!!! :DD
