this is,,silly but in a way you making the decision to share less of yourself online got me to start examining my own boundaries with sharing?? like i've always gone between extremes of not telling anyone ANYTHING and being a big bottler nd then being like hello stranger pls validate me here's my life story!! but am now coming to terms with the idea of a healthy middle ground and also when to share and what the internet dOesn't need to know (even if they,,,,, rlly want to)
eee sammy I love your music so much (marsha is a masterpiece and I have been listening to it MANY times everyday) - I love both you and dodie and wish you both the absolute best. It is so lovely that you share your voices and a teeny bit of your lives - we are grateful and so happy to see you grow xx take care!!
Oh, my; yes. Yes! I was wondering if it was an age-related phenomenon - or perhaps a sign of the times because the internet isn't comfy and private anymore. Or if I simply got discouraged.
im not gonna lie and say i don’t miss when you shared more but i think we all understand why it was unhealthy. all i can say is i appreciate this 1% and hope the 99% has benefited. humans will always feel guilty, but this is definitely not one of the things to feel guilty about. you’re an artist and artists don’t “owe” an audience any part of their life, they choose to share what they’re comfortable with. i’m very excited for these next 11 days! this feels like a treasure hunt! 1% can be FUN!
@@doddlevloggle share what you want... dont let others shame you for sharing the bad parts of your life because it makes them feel uncomfortable... these are the ppl who try and portray their lives as perfect online... so damaging to others
I came down to the comment section to write this, only less eloquently. So.. uh.. hear hear! ...also, I'm a bit of a latecomer around here. **whispers conspiratorially** i only properly discovered the awesomeness that is dodie from her performance of Monster with pomplamoose (and subsequently binged everything she's ever put up on youtube :) )
I think the word is going to spell out published book or something? I forgot what website it's in but if you search up Dodie Clark there's a 2020 book that hasn't been published yet, it just says 2020. I'm pretty sure she's written a book :)
My therapist actually told me to “look at my darkness” once a day. Set a timer for five minutes, think all of the scary terrible thoughts and then actively break free and go on with my day. I don’t know how I feel about it yet. It’s.. intense. I find that journaling really helps, though.
I remember my therapist telling me to do that sort of thing early on, too! I think it was to do with how I would distract myself from thinking about what bothered me until I was forced to be alone with my thoughts like in the shower or when I went to sleep at night (this was before I had a smart phone so I will have to now consider the issue with always having access to brain distractions... Anywho). So basically it was like, practicing taking control over your racing thoughts and such at a time when you have more control. It might make the other times of the day a bit easier because that's what that time is for. I think it makes sense and I think it can be really scary at first. It might not even be like, that good the first couple times tbh. It might be a bad time. But you're probably already having a bad time when the thoughts worm their way in at other times of the day and the lack of control surely doesn't make that any better. But then you practice at it and you can get more clarity and control over those thoughts. Maybe they won't be so scary to you anymore. I've been thinking about making time for this sort of thing, too. Also practicing not having my phone with me in bed but that's so challenging lol
But yeah I think this makes sense and can really help with regulating emotions! Like when something really knocks something loose in me and I get upset about something, suddenly I might get upset about every other thing I haven't allowed myself to think about or deal with. Sometimes in the name of keeping positive and afloat and all that. It's good to stay positive, but yeah this way all of those super pessimistic awful thoughts can go into that time and you can think about how they aren't really so realistic because your brain wasn't already overwhelmed with other upsetting thoughts. Anyway I'm going to screenshot this and put it in my journal app bc I want to try to do it, too. Free therapy lol
I try to do this too. It's fucking terrifying, but doing this sort of helps to not feel overwhelmed by the bad thoughts because you do this every day anyway.
@@carlestars I tried doing that but they seemed to be in different keys? so maybe they are the melodies of different songs off of the album? aH either way im so excited
@@Jenny-wf7jn yeah I tried putting them all together but they're in different keys so I'm not sure if they're clues or just a fun thing dodie's doing? I think it has to mean something and I'm VERY excited
I think it's solve a problem (or fight or press but probably solve a problem) since we're assuming she's filled in all of the a's, so the third word can't have anymore! I don't want to spoil it though 🙊🙊
You could share 1% or 0.01% of you, but I can speak for most of us and say that any sliver of Dodie is a blessing. Please share what you want to and are comfortable with, don't feel any pressure to cross any boundaries. We will accept it with open arms and a wide smile because we're lucky to have you. We're lucky to have your voice, your songs, your music, your videos, and everything else. Thank you for all that you've done in my life and others
1. Not boring. This was really chill and calming. 2. we don’t need the other 99%, but also you put out what you want to put out and when. It’s all good
We accept whatever amount of yourself you’d like to give. There is no point where we should be or are entitled to more than you want to show us. Be yourself privately (it’s okay). And share those videos you’ve convinced yourself are boring because it may be just you chatting, but a lot of your fans think of you as a friend, so we’d love to hear such a thing. Thanks, Dodie!
you're a really funny person. idk i just see you changing over the years in like a really nice way and you've become like really chill. and yes, of course i'm fine with the 1%, you know 0% of us; it's only fair.
WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THE ENDING??? YOU PUTTING THE LETTERS YOU KNITTED INTO A HANGMAN??? HELLO????? DODIE IF THIS IS AN ALBUM IM GOING TO LOSE MY MIND
It makes me feel like talking to that friend that doesn't matter how long it's been since you interacted they mean a lot to you and you just catch up, it feels like even if everything changed with both of you that comforting feeling of talking about the changes with them stays the same.
i have also been tired of the internet in 2020 and that's just being on the watching side not the creative side. can't imagine how exhausting it is for you. 1% is great if it's sustainable. any percent of you is an inspiration to me.
honestly the 1% is so beyond enough. the bottom line is you truly don't owe anyone any portion of yourself, and the fact that you share any of it online to a bunch of strangers who idolize you is quite generous in itself. videos like this are such a wonderful breath of fresh air for me and so many other people that i appreciate it so much. at the end of the day we all just hope you're well and happy, whether you're sharing that or not.
I’ve always related painfully to Dodie in the way she talks about time and how it passes and how things change when you don’t want them to. Sometimes I feel disappointment when I look back at 2017 and realise Dodie has changed in the things she talks about and the things she shares; her looks and her style etc. I’ve been working on that ever so slightly selfish side of me that wants everything to stay the same. I tell myself that it’s unfair to expect others to exist with me in a year that passed far too long ago. As an oversharer; I get how unhealthy it is to share 98% of your life with the world. Dodie I respect you so much for taking the time to work on that part of yourself. You truly inspire me, and that 1% is enough for me now.
Tbh, I'd love some boring videos. Everything is so exhausting at the moment I'd love to see something boring😂 And also I'm very happy about everything you upload, I'd even be happy if you shared 0% of your life and only did reaction videos to kittens or something,
i feel like now days videos are expected to be all cool and hype, and that the most popular youtubers have a persona and are really hyper all the time. Sometimes I get overwhelmed by all the energy they have, I honestly don't mind having "boring" content every now and then.
GUYS GUYS WAIT. DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN SHE STARTED ALOSIA IN APRIL SHE SAID THERE WERE THINGS HAPPENING THAT WERE OUT OF HER CONTROL SO WE COULD JUST LISTEN TO HER ALOSIA SONGS AND THEN IN AUGUST SHE SAID THINGS ARE COMING SO SOON. THIS MUST BE WHAT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT
This is like catching up with an old friend who you only get to see briefly and occasionally. Because of this, you are not close anymore, and there's plenty unshared portions of our lives, but you still care deeply, and you're grateful to hear from them even just that little bit
Anytime you feel guilty about the 1%, remember what kind of audience you have built. Apart from the occasional "turd in the pool" that might stick in you memory; if you ignore that, we are one of the most empathetic fanbases around. We hum "I've got a secret for the mad". We sing along to "I feel like a 6/10". We shout "IM SO HUMAN". We know that we do not possess superpowers and we understand that neither do you. 1% is plenty, and if 1% hurts you, it is too much. We call ourselves fans because we love you and those who require you to suffer for our curiosity and pleasure shouldn't be considered fans at all. You do you. You do not need us to approve of anything. All the love to you babe
I literally never comment and dodie probably won’t see this but please know you aren’t boring, every time i see something from you it makes my day so much better the 1% is perfectly fine. it’s your choice and your life and i am happy with anything so thank you for being you dodie, we love you!
completely understand and respected the 1% bc online is never 100% and should never be 100%, as long as you are happy and healthy with what you want and feel the need to put out there then thats great! at the end of the day u are the single person you are for sure gonna spend the rest of ur life with, we don't need to see it to know that u exist xx
A younger me fell in love with you, this human which seemed real and cool, and nice. It was nice that someone would chat with me, even though it wasn’t real, it felt real and I liked it and it helped. The rush that came from when you posted, and seeing you ramble on about your life felt so good. And things changed, you shared less, and you were still funny and beautiful and interesting. This younger me grew confident and does still loves it when you tell and share, no matter when or what it is. I understand, and it's still nice.
I feel the same exact way, 15 year old me was infatuated with dodie and now I'm 22 and it's like a nice friend has dropped by every time there's an upload and it's very nice
In case anyone cares, I went through all the seven letter words with a B as the fourth letter to try to puzzle out that end bit. Assuming this is like hangman in that there is only one A and one B - the ones already on the board - then the most likely word for the last bit is "Problem." This is taking into account the fact that the first letter can't be a vowel as there is an "a" and not an "an" before it, that there can be no extra As or B's, that B must be the fourth letter, and that the word should make reasonable sense. Of course there are other possibilities I could have overlooked, but I doubt that it would be something like "unibrow" or "symbiot." So my guess? If this is the name of a new album, it may be something along the lines of "You're A Problem." Anyways, that's enough rambling.
just the lighting and the tone and the soft clicking of the knitting needles is so soothing, it reminds me of warm afternoons with my grandma teaching me how to knit
If I’m honest Dodie, I used to worry myself sick about you in 2016. I could see that you really weren’t doing well and then you told me in many videos that you really really weren’t. I cared so much about you and I still do, the only difference is now I feel a bit more at ease, knowing that you are a human being, who got help, and is dealing with her struggles privately. I’m really proud of how far you’ve come and how much you’ve changed. I was lucky enough to see you live in Boston last year, and watching you dance around on stage and sing your heart out brought me to tears. It has been such a special thing to watch you grow. I’ve been subscribed for six years and you have never ever been boring. Not then, and certainly not now. X
1% is more than enough and more than we could ever ask for. 🧡 it’s your life, and you can choose what you want to share and what not, no need to feel guilty. and by now we know that it really is only a snippet. 🌻 we love you and your 1%! also, I can FEEL the album coming! couldn’t be more excited!!
I can imagine it's hard to find a good balance of how much to share when you're somewhat famous, but I want you to know that we are perfectly fine with whatever you decide to give us. You don't exist for the sole purpose of pleasing your viewers, and of course you aren't always going to be as completely open with us as you would be in real life because right now we are literally your camera! By nice to yourself, dodie, we're all here loving and supporting you regardless of what version of yourself you allow us to see.
Madeline Miller is truly a magician with everything she writes! Ah, the way we all sobbed when we got to the very *known* end of The Song of Achilles 😭😭😭😭 Oh, you'd LOVE The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue which, like, *just* came out yesterday! If you're looking for recommendations! Also, every little bit of you is beautiful because it is part of you. Don't feel guilt for keeping some of your to yourself. ✨
absolutely accept the 1%. pls don’t feel pressured to share more than you’re comfortable with. also THE CONCEPT. omg i’m so excited for this series of videos. pls stay safe. can’t wait for what is waiting for us at the end of these 12 videos. love ya🥰
dodie of course i accept 1% of your life. i do wish that i could know you more, but please do not feel guilty. you don’t owe us anything, you as a person do not owe your audience all of your secrets as other youtubers believe they do. they do it to stay relevant, you however, are relevant without sharing your darkest secrets. it’ just shows how amazing you are.
my dude we don’t even deserve 1%. it’s ur life and it’s okay and we’ll take that 1% with loving arms into a (social distanced) hug cause we’ll always be proud and 100% satisfied with what you put out because you will always be enough
doddlevloggle holds a nostalgic place in my heart, in a way. Looking back through your channel, I remember how excited I was every time you uploaded. It reminds me of high school, junior high, all the different phases of my teenage angst and how you helped me cope with it (indirectly). That being said, while I do miss the other 99% of Dodie, I have a huge respect for the 1% that you now share with us. I almost appreciate it more? It genuinely warms my heart to see you happier with your content and the amount you share. Thank you for letting us remain a part of your life!
this 1% of you was wholesome and eloquent and i laughed out loud at the lil interjections. 1% is even more awesome if it means you’re looking after yourself. thank you, dodie.
got the reference! (if that was on purpose). "80 years old and alone in my chair, will I look back at safety and be glad I didn't care? No! I can hear her..." etc...
This is one take on you just revealing 1% of your life to your audience. During 2020 life has been so stressful and chaotic, and often lonely for so many people. I've been watching your videos for close to 6 years now, and to see a new video of yours pop up during the week is such a comfort. The normalcy of watching the same creator that I've watched for years, and to listen to your gentle voice, or just watch you just knit, it is such a source of comfort for me, and I'm sure for many others. That little 1% can still bring so much joy to so many people during a pretty painful time. Don't feel guilty for only sharing the little that you can - that little bit goes a long way!!
even if your videos were boring, which I don't think they are, I would still most definitely listen to them lol. I just like listening to you, no matter what its about. its very calming, and I just like u a lot ☺️
Never feel guilty for having and maintaining boundaries! I can't imagine how draining and complicated maintaining such a prominent social media presence must be, I don't think it's fair at all to expect you to share your whole life. And these little videos aren't boring, they're really nice and comfortable. If people are bored by your content, they don't have to watch! I'm sure you already know all of this and I hope it's not preachy but instead maybe helpful to hear from your audience
your journey online has taught me a lot. A lot about what is okay to share and what is not okay to share. But I've learned about myself as well. 1% is amazing as long as you are happy and healthy. You don't ever have to feel guilty for not sharing stuff your not comfy with.
i started watching Dodie when i was in about year 6. now i’m in year 10 and my mind is slightly more dark and sad and also more bright and full of love and beautiful. she helped me figure out my sexuality, my mental health, and was there for me like a big sister. i know some people have been watching her for a much longer time than i have, but it really feels like she’s raised me, taught me, and been one of the best role models for me. every once in a while i look back on her old videos and think about how much she has grown, and how much i have grown, and watching Dodie truly makes me feel at home.
Maybe it’s good that you’re “boring” to you, means you’ve gotten things a little bit more under control, more ability for us to relate to you with our own “boring” lives...
As a viewer of yours for years I can assure you that it is truly okay for you to share 1% of your life. In fact I am actually incredibly proud of you for getting to a point where you are comfortable with that. I know it’s taken you a lot to get here and you’ve put in so much work. But you’ve done it!! And I’m so proud I love you so much Dodie
this made me feel so warm and safe? like, sitting down with a good friend you haven't really seen in a long time and you just sit down and chat and it's still as magical as the day you first met. you're a safe place for me and for a lot of people i suppose- i really appreciate that 1% you're sharing with us. 🖤
yes dodie!! we do wholeheartedly accept your one percent!! humans are multidimensional, complicated little buggers and we get that you cant put all of you online, i dont think anyone truly does really, we're just too messy for that. and even if you're showing a little bit of you thats still you. plus you're transparent about transparency lol and you've made it v clear to us that you're keeping your distance from the internet which is extremely fair!!
the vibes are so soft! also idk about others but i respect you so much for being able to only share 1% and it's very calming and lovely and it's just great you're able to interact with online things in a healthy way. if you share 1% or 0% or anything else we'll enjoy it just as much. you don't owe us anything, you're just a person
people who crave the 99% are probably struggling to accept their own struggles, and i think it's not only healthier for you, but also for them to not be sucked into your life, but try to look into their doorway, their own 99% instead of yours. the 1% is good
re: your question yes we understand and we appreciate anything you share! no need for guilt love this is your channel so as long as you’re happy then we’re happy
Girl, I really appreciate you having healthy boundaries with what you share online. Watching you learn to share less over the years, I'm really proud of you, and your example has helped me establish my own boundaries. I am 100% content with the 1% you share online.
Can I just say there is such a place on this platform for ‘boring videos’ chatty videos where you do something cosy or little baby updates like this are so calming and nice for before bed, or to listen to while you do make up or have a bath. Your content is always enjoyable and whatever you want to give is enough.
This video gave me so much serotonin you don’t even know. The wooden knitting needles clinking together, you’re sweet, soft voice, seeing you get so excited about your life again, it all just made me so happy. I’m so glad you’re doing well again dodie, and I am so proud of the steps you’ve taken towards bettering yourself! Please do not feel like you have to contribute more of yourself than what you are comfortable with just to please us. We all understand and want you to be happy and healthy and we just love seeing your face.❤️❤️❤️
Dodie is uploading every day from now for 12 days. She started today by adding 'B' to the 'hang man' puzzle thing. and there's 11 gaps left. we're getting a reveal!!
You shouldn’t feel guilty about sharing 1% of your life. Everyone should have privacy and you should only share what you’re comfortable with because it’s YOUR life. Also I love your knitting :) the colours are great
on reflection after years of sharing every moment of my day with people (almost) and having them do the same back I''m quite relieved that this expectation is slowly being lifted and my friends don't need to let me know what they had for dinner, or expect me to share the same. Having moments just to yourself is fantastic. I like that I have things that are just mine
Anything you are willing to share is generous. How could we complain? Also, for some reason I teared up at the end? Bc how cool and creative? Like, the reveal (?) of the letters and...I love it and I’m so excited.
I really relate to what you’re talking about with only sharing 1%. I’m a blogger and I recently took a break from posting on Instagram and most other social media because of my health and university and so many things going on. A part of me feels really guilty about it, like I promised to myself and to my readers that I would share and be consistent and I’m not doing that. I’m still posting on my blog, but that’s it. On top of everything going on, I want my posts to be genuine and right not I’m not really feeling that artist inspiration. So I don’t know, but I feel you.
I started knitting last year after rewatching your old knitting video about the bunny! I’ve been obsessed with knitting ever since! I guess thanks for inspiring me to start a new hobby that has brought me so much joy and really helped as a stress relief You don’t have to have to give anything if you didn’t want to. If 1% is what your comfortable with giving, the 1% is the perfect amount for me
I was going through dark times back when you used to share almost everything, and knowing that someone I admired and whose stuff I enjoyed was going through similar things helped me a lot, especially since we are the same age. That era has a special place in my heart because of that, but I’ve also grown since then and realised that it isn’t healthy. So I would love to have just that 1% now

I think the word is going to spell out published book or something? I forgot what website it's in but if you search up Dodie Clark there's a 2020 book that hasn't been published yet, it just says 2020. I'm pretty sure she's written a book :)
This has aged well, good guesswork
I can imagine Dodie when she is older moving to a lil cottage in the woods with a cat and a guitar and knitting nice things :)
I can imagine walking by a little cottage in the woods on a hike one day and thinking "Holy hell, whoever is singing in there is AWESOME!"
Yesss
massive cottagecore vibes

My therapist actually told me to “look at my darkness” once a day. Set a timer for five minutes, think all of the scary terrible thoughts and then actively break free and go on with my day. I don’t know how I feel about it yet. It’s.. intense. I find that journaling really helps, though.
I remember my therapist telling me to do that sort of thing early on, too! I think it was to do with how I would distract myself from thinking about what bothered me until I was forced to be alone with my thoughts like in the shower or when I went to sleep at night (this was before I had a smart phone so I will have to now consider the issue with always having access to brain distractions... Anywho).
So basically it was like, practicing taking control over your racing thoughts and such at a time when you have more control. It might make the other times of the day a bit easier because that's what that time is for. I think it makes sense and I think it can be really scary at first. It might not even be like, that good the first couple times tbh. It might be a bad time. But you're probably already having a bad time when the thoughts worm their way in at other times of the day and the lack of control surely doesn't make that any better. But then you practice at it and you can get more clarity and control over those thoughts. Maybe they won't be so scary to you anymore. I've been thinking about making time for this sort of thing, too. Also practicing not having my phone with me in bed but that's so challenging lol
But yeah I think this makes sense and can really help with regulating emotions! Like when something really knocks something loose in me and I get upset about something, suddenly I might get upset about every other thing I haven't allowed myself to think about or deal with. Sometimes in the name of keeping positive and afloat and all that. It's good to stay positive, but yeah this way all of those super pessimistic awful thoughts can go into that time and you can think about how they aren't really so realistic because your brain wasn't already overwhelmed with other upsetting thoughts.

And share those videos you’ve convinced yourself are boring because it may be just you chatting, but a lot of your fans think of you as a friend, so we’d love to hear such a thing. Thanks, Dodie!
This was really comforting. It felt like catching up with a friend during an evening rainstorm.
you're a really funny person. idk i just see you changing over the years in like a really nice way and you've become like really chill. and yes, of course i'm fine with the 1%, you know 0% of us; it's only fair.
WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THE ENDING??? YOU PUTTING THE LETTERS YOU KNITTED INTO A HANGMAN??? HELLO?????
DODIE IF THIS IS AN ALBUM IM GOING TO LOSE MY MIND
1:51 “Life is short but also like terribly and insufferably long at the same time” - Jenna Marbles
Well now I miss Jenna again, Why'd you do that
And I live by that.
dodie has a way of speaking that makes me feel like we’re bestfriends catching up over coffee
It makes me feel like talking to that friend that doesn't matter how long it's been since you interacted they mean a lot to you and you just catch up, it feels like even if everything changed with both of you that comforting feeling of talking about the changes with them stays the same.
Sammy 501 yes! completely 100% agree! 🥺💗
YES
I swear if I hear her say a word that sounds even the slightest bit likes she’s singing I’m going to scream.
LOLOLOLOLLL
this made me cackle it’s just so true
having flashbacks?

i have also been tired of the internet in 2020 and that's just being on the watching side not the creative side. can't imagine how exhausting it is for you. 1% is great if it's sustainable. any percent of you is an inspiration to me.
honestly the 1% is so beyond enough. the bottom line is you truly don't owe anyone any portion of yourself, and the fact that you share any of it online to a bunch of strangers who idolize you is quite generous in itself. videos like this are such a wonderful breath of fresh air for me and so many other people that i appreciate it so much. at the end of the day we all just hope you're well and happy, whether you're sharing that or not.
I’ve always related painfully to Dodie in the way she talks about time and how it passes and how things change when you don’t want them to.
Sometimes I feel disappointment when I look back at 2017 and realise Dodie has changed in the things she talks about and the things she shares; her looks and her style etc.
I’ve been working on that ever so slightly selfish side of me that wants everything to stay the same. I tell myself that it’s unfair to expect others to exist with me in a year that passed far too long ago.
As an oversharer; I get how unhealthy it is to share 98% of your life with the world.
Dodie I respect you so much for taking the time to work on that part of yourself. You truly inspire me, and that 1% is enough for me now.
Tbh, I'd love some boring videos. Everything is so exhausting at the moment I'd love to see something boring😂 And also I'm very happy about everything you upload, I'd even be happy if you shared 0% of your life and only did reaction videos to kittens or something,
Literally would be fine with nothing happening 😂
Hahah omg thank u!!
i feel like now days videos are expected to be all cool and hype, and that the most popular youtubers have a persona and are really hyper all the time. Sometimes I get overwhelmed by all the energy they have, I honestly don't mind having "boring" content every now and then.
1:14 i am LIVING for dodie's southern accent oml as a texan i am so proud
the end? an ALBUM REVEAL?? HDJSJDHHSD ILL CRY DODES
RIGHT???? IM FREAKING OUT AHHHH
😭😭
I KNOWWWWWWWWWWW IM EXCITED
NGFDJHNGVDMJHSVJTHDFG I'M JUST AAAAA
GUYS GUYS WAIT. DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN SHE STARTED ALOSIA IN APRIL SHE SAID THERE WERE THINGS HAPPENING THAT WERE OUT OF HER CONTROL SO WE COULD JUST LISTEN TO HER ALOSIA SONGS AND THEN IN AUGUST SHE SAID THINGS ARE COMING SO SOON. THIS MUST BE WHAT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT
Dodie: "I would like to formally...ask for your hand in--no"
Me: "Don't be shy SAY IT"
Dodie is like youtubes wholesome grandma.
This is like catching up with an old friend who you only get to see briefly and occasionally. Because of this, you are not close anymore, and there's plenty unshared portions of our lives, but you still care deeply, and you're grateful to hear from them even just that little bit
Anytime you feel guilty about the 1%, remember what kind of audience you have built. Apart from the occasional "turd in the pool" that might stick in you memory; if you ignore that, we are one of the most empathetic fanbases around. We hum "I've got a secret for the mad". We sing along to "I feel like a 6/10". We shout "IM SO HUMAN". We know that we do not possess superpowers and we understand that neither do you. 1% is plenty, and if 1% hurts you, it is too much. We call ourselves fans because we love you and those who require you to suffer for our curiosity and pleasure shouldn't be considered fans at all. You do you. You do not need us to approve of anything. All the love to you babe
Was gonna comment then I read this and decided that yellowsparklefish should think all my thoughts for me because they do the words so well ❤
And occasionally that turd in the pool was actually a snickers bar and there's no issue (that's a reference pls don't think I'm weird 😂)
She's such a cozy blessing to this platform
I literally never comment and dodie probably won’t see this but
please know you aren’t boring, every time i see something from you it makes my day so much better
the 1% is perfectly fine. it’s your choice and your life and i am happy with anything
so thank you for being you dodie, we love you!
I 100% love and support 1% dodie as she is healing. being 1% online is a big step!! We are so proud of you!
Well, the end was interestin'. Can't wait to see where this goes. 🙃
Dodie I'm going to be honest, whenever I'm going through something for some reason you are always the youtuber who is there for me.
"Grandma Dodie gives you life advice" is what this video should be called
Ah yes
There should be a granny dodie series, but like, once per month so it's like a visiting ur grandma vibes
When I'm eighty years old and alone in my chair
Will I look back at safety and be glad I didn't care?
No!
@@als_pals good poem mah friend
completely understand and respected the 1% bc online is never 100% and should never be 100%, as long as you are happy and healthy with what you want and feel the need to put out there then thats great! at the end of the day u are the single person you are for sure gonna spend the rest of ur life with, we don't need to see it to know that u exist xx
There’s a B?!
I’ll take the 1% gladly. We are not entitled to any % so whatever we are given is great 💛
i think it is! and i think the humming at the beginning is one of the songs
the little voices in the back are giving me life. Love you Dodie I accept your 1%, it's beautiful and it gets me through the day❤
omg she’s totally announcing her album at the end of this!!! :)
DON’T RAISE MY HOPES!!!😂🤍 I really hope that’s what it is
that’s my guess too ;) I’ll be spending all night trying to guess the words at the end 😂
Sophie Nash haha yeah same 😂
Omg I really hope she is . Tbh that's what I think it's gonna be
you are what the inside of my soul feels like, just all soft, plant-loving and filled with knitting
A younger me fell in love with you, this human which seemed real and cool, and nice. It was nice that someone would chat with me, even though it wasn’t real, it felt real and I liked it and it helped. The rush that came from when you posted, and seeing you ramble on about your life felt so good. And things changed, you shared less, and you were still funny and beautiful and interesting. This younger me grew confident and does still loves it when you tell and share, no matter when or what it is. I understand, and it's still nice.
100% tears
This made me emotional.
I absolutely relate to this. Couldn't put it better 💜
I feel the same exact way, 15 year old me was infatuated with dodie and now I'm 22 and it's like a nice friend has dropped by every time there's an upload and it's very nice
i love the album so much :(
coming back to these videos brings back nostalgia of kinder times
In case anyone cares, I went through all the seven letter words with a B as the fourth letter to try to puzzle out that end bit. Assuming this is like hangman in that there is only one A and one B - the ones already on the board - then the most likely word for the last bit is "Problem." This is taking into account the fact that the first letter can't be a vowel as there is an "a" and not an "an" before it, that there can be no extra As or B's, that B must be the fourth letter, and that the word should make reasonable sense. Of course there are other possibilities I could have overlooked, but I doubt that it would be something like "unibrow" or "symbiot." So my guess? If this is the name of a new album, it may be something along the lines of "You're A Problem." Anyways, that's enough rambling.
Thank you!
Aah no worries, I think I put way too much effort into that!
Could also be Solve A Problem but idk how likely that is
Never A Problem
her twitter said she was uploading 13 vids and the hangman is 3 letters so likely the first word is 's'
just the lighting and the tone and the soft clicking of the knitting needles is so soothing, it reminds me of warm afternoons with my grandma teaching me how to knit
i accept the 1%! it’s lovely, it’s good, and you don’t owe us anything more. and it’s healthy. all we need. and we love it
If I’m honest Dodie, I used to worry myself sick about you in 2016. I could see that you really weren’t doing well and then you told me in many videos that you really really weren’t. I cared so much about you and I still do, the only difference is now I feel a bit more at ease, knowing that you are a human being, who got help, and is dealing with her struggles privately. I’m really proud of how far you’ve come and how much you’ve changed. I was lucky enough to see you live in Boston last year, and watching you dance around on stage and sing your heart out brought me to tears. It has been such a special thing to watch you grow. I’ve been subscribed for six years and you have never ever been boring. Not then, and certainly not now. X
WHY IS NO ONE ELSE FREAKING OUT ABOUT THE LETTERS AT THE END???
IT'S GONNA BE ABOUT THE ALBUM, I CAN'T WAIIIIT
(sorry for screaming but I AM freaking out!!!!)
@@pascale473 AHHHH I REALLY HOPE SO
@@emieshaw8204 SAME!!
1% is more than enough and more than we could ever ask for. 🧡 it’s your life, and you can choose what you want to share and what not, no need to feel guilty. and by now we know that it really is only a snippet. 🌻 we love you and your 1%!
also, I can FEEL the album coming! couldn’t be more excited!!
She protect
She attack
But most importantly
She knit
I can imagine it's hard to find a good balance of how much to share when you're somewhat famous, but I want you to know that we are perfectly fine with whatever you decide to give us. You don't exist for the sole purpose of pleasing your viewers, and of course you aren't always going to be as completely open with us as you would be in real life because right now we are literally your camera! By nice to yourself, dodie, we're all here loving and supporting you regardless of what version of yourself you allow us to see.
Madeline Miller is truly a magician with everything she writes! Ah, the way we all sobbed when we got to the very *known* end of The Song of Achilles 😭😭😭😭 Oh, you'd LOVE The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue which, like, *just* came out yesterday! If you're looking for recommendations!
Also, every little bit of you is beautiful because it is part of you. Don't feel guilt for keeping some of your to yourself. ✨
OOOH THNK U!!! I will check that out!
@@doddlevloggle AJSGSHAKSKSKSKSLKSS AAAHHH I HOPE YOU LIKE IT 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
I LOVE MADELINE MILLER
@@isabelle9368 She's honestly SO GOOD! Her writing style *_gets me_* every single time
absolutely accept the 1%. pls don’t feel pressured to share more than you’re comfortable with. also THE CONCEPT. omg i’m so excited for this series of videos. pls stay safe. can’t wait for what is waiting for us at the end of these 12 videos. love ya🥰
if you feel healthier and more comfortable sharing less, then of course we’re ok with the 1% 💕
dodie of course i accept 1% of your life. i do wish that i could know you more, but please do not feel guilty. you don’t owe us anything, you as a person do not owe your audience all of your secrets as other youtubers believe they do. they do it to stay relevant, you however, are relevant without sharing your darkest secrets. it’ just shows how amazing you are.
my dude we don’t even deserve 1%. it’s ur life and it’s okay and we’ll take that 1% with loving arms into a (social distanced) hug cause we’ll always be proud and 100% satisfied with what you put out because you will always be enough
doddlevloggle holds a nostalgic place in my heart, in a way. Looking back through your channel, I remember how excited I was every time you uploaded. It reminds me of high school, junior high, all the different phases of my teenage angst and how you helped me cope with it (indirectly). That being said, while I do miss the other 99% of Dodie, I have a huge respect for the 1% that you now share with us. I almost appreciate it more? It genuinely warms my heart to see you happier with your content and the amount you share. Thank you for letting us remain a part of your life!
this 1% of you was wholesome and eloquent and i laughed out loud at the lil interjections. 1% is even more awesome if it means you’re looking after yourself. thank you, dodie.
:))) any percent u chose makes and brightens my day. also sidenote- just spewing all your random thoughts whilst knitting is such a mood
*choose
I personally cannot wait until dodie is 80 years old and alone in her chair... streaming to the nation cool tips on self care.
ALSO KNITTING 🥰
got the reference! (if that was on purpose). "80 years old and alone in my chair, will I look back at safety and be glad I didn't care? No! I can hear her..." etc...
This is one take on you just revealing 1% of your life to your audience. During 2020 life has been so stressful and chaotic, and often lonely for so many people. I've been watching your videos for close to 6 years now, and to see a new video of yours pop up during the week is such a comfort. The normalcy of watching the same creator that I've watched for years, and to listen to your gentle voice, or just watch you just knit, it is such a source of comfort for me, and I'm sure for many others. That little 1% can still bring so much joy to so many people during a pretty painful time. Don't feel guilty for only sharing the little that you can - that little bit goes a long way!!
i will fully accept the 1% of your life!!! don’t feel guilty about taking a step back online, i’m just glad to see you uploading
even if your videos were boring, which I don't think they are, I would still most definitely listen to them lol. I just like listening to you, no matter what its about. its very calming, and I just like u a lot ☺️
Never feel guilty for having and maintaining boundaries! I can't imagine how draining and complicated maintaining such a prominent social media presence must be, I don't think it's fair at all to expect you to share your whole life. And these little videos aren't boring, they're really nice and comfortable. If people are bored by your content, they don't have to watch! I'm sure you already know all of this and I hope it's not preachy but instead maybe helpful to hear from your audience
your journey online has taught me a lot. A lot about what is okay to share and what is not okay to share. But I've learned about myself as well. 1% is amazing as long as you are happy and healthy. You don't ever have to feel guilty for not sharing stuff your not comfy with.
Dodie, show whatever you feel comfortable with 💛 We’re here for the 1% or how much you’re willing to.
the like little voices in the back when certain things are said give me serotonin
As someone who knits, it’s so strange to it done backwards...
i started watching Dodie when i was in about year 6. now i’m in year 10 and my mind is slightly more dark and sad and also more bright and full of love and beautiful. she helped me figure out my sexuality, my mental health, and was there for me like a big sister. i know some people have been watching her for a much longer time than i have, but it really feels like she’s raised me, taught me, and been one of the best role models for me. every once in a while i look back on her old videos and think about how much she has grown, and how much i have grown, and watching Dodie truly makes me feel at home.
Maybe it’s good that you’re “boring” to you, means you’ve gotten things a little bit more under control, more ability for us to relate to you with our own “boring” lives...
As a viewer of yours for years I can assure you that it is truly okay for you to share 1% of your life. In fact I am actually incredibly proud of you for getting to a point where you are comfortable with that. I know it’s taken you a lot to get here and you’ve put in so much work. But you’ve done it!! And I’m so proud I love you so much Dodie
"Thats not very tight is it?" "Weve all heard that before" 😂😂
this made me feel so warm and safe? like, sitting down with a good friend you haven't really seen in a long time and you just sit down and chat and it's still as magical as the day you first met.
you're a safe place for me and for a lot of people i suppose- i really appreciate that 1% you're sharing with us. 🖤
yes dodie!! we do wholeheartedly accept your one percent!! humans are multidimensional, complicated little buggers and we get that you cant put all of you online, i dont think anyone truly does really, we're just too messy for that. and even if you're showing a little bit of you thats still you. plus you're transparent about transparency lol and you've made it v clear to us that you're keeping your distance from the internet which is extremely fair!!
the vibes are so soft! also idk about others but i respect you so much for being able to only share 1% and it's very calming and lovely and it's just great you're able to interact with online things in a healthy way. if you share 1% or 0% or anything else we'll enjoy it just as much. you don't owe us anything, you're just a person
*blasPHEMOUS*
what’s phemous done to u?
"blasphemous? what's phemous ever done to you?"
- dodie, 2020
people who crave the 99% are probably struggling to accept their own struggles, and i think it's not only healthier for you, but also for them to not be sucked into your life, but try to look into their doorway, their own 99% instead of yours. the 1% is good
ur not boring and ur voice is just so calming to listen to😊
re: your question
yes we understand and we appreciate anything you share! no need for guilt love this is your channel so as long as you’re happy then we’re happy
Girl, I really appreciate you having healthy boundaries with what you share online. Watching you learn to share less over the years, I'm really proud of you, and your example has helped me establish my own boundaries. I am 100% content with the 1% you share online.
"WHAT HAS PHEMOUS EVER DONE TO YOU?" dead.
Can I just say there is such a place on this platform for ‘boring videos’ chatty videos where you do something cosy or little baby updates like this are so calming and nice for before bed, or to listen to while you do make up or have a bath. Your content is always enjoyable and whatever you want to give is enough.
thank you dodie for supporting us by giving us content in these trying times
1%, how wonderful. Whatever % you are willing/able to share is enough. Sharing anything at all is still a huge commitment
dodie: “hey, look what i made!”
my heart: 🥺💗🦋💓😭✨
This video gave me so much serotonin you don’t even know. The wooden knitting needles clinking together, you’re sweet, soft voice, seeing you get so excited about your life again, it all just made me so happy. I’m so glad you’re doing well again dodie, and I am so proud of the steps you’ve taken towards bettering yourself! Please do not feel like you have to contribute more of yourself than what you are comfortable with just to please us. We all understand and want you to be happy and healthy and we just love seeing your face.❤️❤️❤️
Dodie is uploading every day from now for 12 days. She started today by adding 'B' to the 'hang man' puzzle thing. and there's 11 gaps left. we're getting a reveal!!
I'm gonna cry if it the album reveal is waiting at the end!!!
You shouldn’t feel guilty about sharing 1% of your life. Everyone should have privacy and you should only share what you’re comfortable with because it’s YOUR life. Also I love your knitting :) the colours are great
i really don’t mind if it’s 1% or 80% i just like knowing someone like you exists :)
on reflection
after years of sharing every moment of my day with people (almost) and having them do the same back
I''m quite relieved that this expectation is slowly being lifted and my friends don't need to let me know what they had for dinner, or expect me to share the same.
Having moments just to yourself is fantastic. I like that I have things that are just mine
dodie ilysm you’ve gotten me through everything.
Anything you are willing to share is generous. How could we complain?
Also, for some reason I teared up at the end? Bc how cool and creative? Like, the reveal (?) of the letters and...I love it and I’m so excited.
I really relate to what you’re talking about with only sharing 1%. I’m a blogger and I recently took a break from posting on Instagram and most other social media because of my health and university and so many things going on. A part of me feels really guilty about it, like I promised to myself and to my readers that I would share and be consistent and I’m not doing that. I’m still posting on my blog, but that’s it. On top of everything going on, I want my posts to be genuine and right not I’m not really feeling that artist inspiration. So I don’t know, but I feel you.
I started knitting last year after rewatching your old knitting video about the bunny! I’ve been obsessed with knitting ever since! I guess thanks for inspiring me to start a new hobby that has brought me so much joy and really helped as a stress relief
You don’t have to have to give anything if you didn’t want to. If 1% is what your comfortable with giving, the 1% is the perfect amount for me
honestly, I’m so ready for your videos 💛 It’s all I needed.
I was going through dark times back when you used to share almost everything, and knowing that someone I admired and whose stuff I enjoyed was going through similar things helped me a lot, especially since we are the same age. That era has a special place in my heart because of that, but I’ve also grown since then and realised that it isn’t healthy. So I would love to have just that 1% now
When I imagine old lady Dodie I can see her being the next David Attenborough or Mary Berry :)
