Daniel Larson: Difference between revisions

{{PleaseSpreadTheMessage|Daniel has never been officially confirmed to have been abused as a child, much less sexually. News articles, videos, and posts often state that he has been without a source, often citing Daniel himself, who is known to be an unreliable narrator. On the other hand, it is very likely that Daniel himself was the abuser. While it is highly likely he may have been abused, please take any claims made by him with a grain of salt until further confirmation.}}

Observing Daniel’s facial features, including a thin, flat upper lip and small eye openings, it has been speculated that Daniel may suffer from fetal alcohol syndrome.<ref>https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/15677-fetal-alcohol-syndrome</ref> However, this cannot be proven, and furthermore, it is way more likely that [[Daniel and health|genetic disorders]] from Daniels parents passed onto him.

{{Quote|I worked with this person when he was a child/teen in a severe treatment center in Denver.... he's had a horrible upbringing and does suffer from multiple behavior and personality issues. This is a man with deep rooted mental health problems! It's very sad and I hope that the dog and himself finds help. There's a history of child sexual abuse (to him and by him) as well. How he acts ISNT A GAME or him faking.... It's truly how his brain thinks and it's severely debilitated! Very sad story to see this from working with him as a teen....}}

According to [[Flexburger]], a future manager of Daniel:  

{{Quote|Daniel moved to Hugo, Colorado with his mom after she split with Travis. She couldn’t take care of him anymore because she was paralyzed. And Daniel was an asshole. I asked him about her getting paralyzed. He told me she was stuck on the kitchen floor for a couple months straight by herself and couldn’t get up. I knew that was a lie so I asked “so she shit and pissed herself on the floor for a couple months straight?” to with daniel responded “yes”.|Flexburger|author=Flexburger}}  

Throughout his childhood, Daniel was almost exclusively referred as 'Danny.' He was even called this in his high school yearbook and in the news report he was featured in. According to his classmates, Daniel was a very violent person, even in class. One of his classmates refers to a time in which Daniel threw a chair at a window which resulted in a light fixture being knocked down.<ref>[[Canned Legs Leaks]]</ref>  

{{Quote|i also remember he threw a chair at the window in the computer lab that overlooked the library and knocked down one of the light fixtures. but yeah that sums it up lol}}

Just like his childhood, his time in school was wrought with alleged claims of mistreatment and bullying. Daniel claimed that the Tennyson Center was a, "...very violent place."<ref>[[Spiddlekick Interview]]</ref> According to Daniel, the Tennyson Center had a brick room only lit up by a single window, dubbed the 'Timeout Room.' Daniel claimed to have been placed in this room on several occasions for behavior such as excessive crying and not cooperating with teachers. Other students would be physically restrained due to violent behavior, however, this seems to have never happened to Daniel.  

When in school, Daniel claimed that children would tease him by calling him '[[wikipedia:Danny_Phantom|Danny Phantom]],' a nickname derived from the fictional character of the same name. According to a classmate, this seemed to have very little effect on him.<ref>[[FlyingFoxandwings AMA]]</ref> These claims of being bullied only seemed to arise in adulthood. {{Quote|Contrary to what he may say, people were actually quite respectful towards him. We all knew we had our own issues, and for the most part, nobody meant any harm towards him. Whenever he was called Danny phantom, there was no malicious intent. He didn't even really react to it. I guess that's more something that came after he graduated. But no, not really anybody bullied him. This particular school was quite small, so when I say that, not really, anybody bullied him, I mean, there were about 18 of us in the high school. Even the biggest bully in the school didn't really pay much mind to him. He was just that reserved.}}

{{Quote|He seemed pretty normal. He really had some issues with academic retention and he was very reserved. He often times would have an escort, and his escorts would call him Danny... ...post-graduation it was like night and day. He went from robotic to the way he is today. It was a rapid turnaround.}}Despite his behavior being far less eccentric during his high school years, he was documented to have had occasional outbursts and [[meltdowns]], during some of which he would [[Self Harm|hit himself]]. These outbursts would result in him being placed into "close and lock," much akin to the punishment room at the Tennyson Center. The reason he is much worse now compared to his time in school could be that Daniel was heavily medicated when he attended Sobesky and Tennyson, whereas nowadays he almost always refuses to take antipsychotics. He was often described as someone who was quiet, a, "...total wallflower," and "...pretty normal."<ref>[[FlyingFoxandwings AMA]]</ref>[[File:Furries.png|thumb|Could our future president be a furry? ]]Daniel, despite being [[Intelligence|unable to do basic math,]] to a point where a classmate described him as having academic retention, took Algebra 2. [[File:Graduation.png|left|thumb|200x200px|Daniel at his high school graduation. ]]{{Quote|He was 4 years older than me so having classes was rare. The only one I had with him was back in 2017 when I was taking Algebra II.}}

Daniel graduated from Sobesky Academy at the age of 18 in 2017, not attending any type of higher education afterwards. As mentioned before, the validity of his degree is debated, as he most likely has a Certificate of Completion (COC), opposed to an actual highschool degree.   

===Adult Chronicles ===

[[File:BroadwayPic.png|left|thumb|Nancy's dog, Broadway.|228x228px]]

2019 appeared to be the year when Daniel lost two of the most important people in his life. On April 11, 2019, Daniel had to put down Broadway, his (or more accurately, his grandmother's) dog, due to her battle with cancer.<ref>https://www.instagram.com/p/BwI7cPMlZtQ/</ref>  

{{Quote|Had to put her down today. She had cancer. She was my baby. She was in 2 live performances. Can you wish her luck and good times. She was a fighter and would fight through anything. Her name was Broadway.}}[[File:DanielThriftStore.png|thumb|“A nother day at work.”]]

It is likely that Daniel was still living with his grandmother at the time of her passing. On the day she died, Daniel was attending a Special Olympics event, during which he was informed of his grandmother being on her deathbed. Instead of going to comfort her at the hospice center, Daniel chose to stay at the event to prove that he was a 'fighter.' This incident, though seemingly minor, reflects a profound lack of respect Daniel had for his grandmother, as he could not even be bothered to be with her as she passed away.   

''Main Article: [[Headset Arc]]''

From July 20 to August 2021, Daniel would stay in the [[Pink room|Pink Room]], after being moved from his last disability housing service to another one. The reason behind why is unknown. This arc was notable for the bizarrely sexual videos that took place during them, many of his videos having a [[Fog Arc|foggy]] effect on them, and the fact that Daniel would frequently punch holes in the walls. This, of course, would lead to him being kicked out of this housing situation.  

== Second Housing Arc ==

''Main Article: [[Second Housing Arc]]''

In July 2022, Daniel reached out for assistance from the Developmental Disabilities Resource Center, or the [[DDRC]], for housing. At this point, he had spent close to half a year being homeless, so Daniel was desperately in need of permanant housing. After several meetings with them, Daniel secured housing shortly thereafter.
