the thing is. you couldn’t fucking write this. not even in my wildest dreams did i ever think yeah dan and phil are gonna hard launch and then announce a podcast called hard launch and then the next day they post a selfie in bed and then the next day dan tweets fifty times in one afternoon joking about breaking up and then the next day they’re spotted filming at the london eye and then the next day they make their first red carpet appearance in seven years and it’s at a gay bdsm film and then the next day it’s october 19th and then the next day the first episode of the podcast comes out and they talk about a previously untold gay scandal anecdote
literally all i was told growing up was that queer people live sad, lonely lives and it is a tragedy to learn someone you love is gay. and now i’m watching a man who was told the same thing in a much more violent way openly sharing his relationship of 16 years with a man who was and is kind and funny and supportive and patient and he’s got a thick ass.
phil realizing they never actually extablished that they were dating and instead just oops now we live together is truly the lesbian representation we’ve needed
