To be fair we were quite a chill crowd!

[@crowofkindness]

the best part of this is that wilbur and dan would almost certainly get along super well. wilbur has a very powerful disarming relaxed aura and a wealth of wild anecdotes and trivia knowledge that would put even the most socially anxious person at ease, but he’s also so deeply strange as a person that he could mesh easily with dan’s more out-there ways of thinking. i would love to see them sit down for like an hour long podcast and just discuss pretty much any topic. they would be able to play off each other quite fluidly with their respective humor styles.
