To me, the meaning of a human life is to be happy. It's to achieve happiness right now, it's to make sure you're happy in the future. And if some people on YouTube try to have a message to give people, I guess that mine is: do whatever you have to do to be happy.

Embrace the void and have the courage to exist.

Holy mother of rectangles.

I'm about as intimidating as a butterfly.

Don't trust people who tell you other people's secrets.

You are a human with one life and its up to you to make it the best life you can.

I'm the living embodiment of 'it could be worse'.

Unless you have great parents or some inspirational teacher from a movie that pushes you to follow your dreams, you can't expect a kid to be smart enough to realize they can do what they want with their life before they've been pushed through the school system into having an average life.

You know, people ask me. They say 'Dan, three years later do you really want to be drawing cat whiskers on your face?' but they don't understand. The cat whiskers, they come from within.

My only regrets are the moments when i doubted myself and took the safe route. Life is too short to waste time being unhappy.

wtf even is my sexuality

These days, in the world of apps and social media and _ idiot friends, it is literally impossible to avoid spoilers. If a character dies, it is gonna be the number one trending topic on Twitter, it is gonna be the top trending story on Facebook _ and Reddit and Tumblr just turn into a completely uncensored memorial service of memes.This happens all the time with sports results, but _ I shit you not _ I once got a notification from the BBC News app saying that a character in a show I was watching had just died! I thought that news notifications are supposed to be for impending natural disasters, not for just ruining my bloody afternoon.
