What’s with the naked lady? Where’s RacPack?
Wipe that sand out of your eyes! Where have you been? You’re missing all the fun! I joke. It’s completely okay and I don’t expect you to show up just as much as I do to my own stream. But it’s good that you’re reading this, so let me clear up as much as I can and catch you up.
Where’s RacPack going?
Was it ever really here? Looking back it was a brilliant idea and a great name for us. Yet I fucked it up. I didn’t let you contribute and I just forced it on you all without even thinking. Looking back, a lot of what I created was with the idea in mind that I had to be presentable, safe for work, professional. It was really just a clip on tie. It wasn’t me. If I talk long enough things start to get weird, things start to get lewd and crude. Thats me.
I’m not going to win EVERYONE over. I had to realize that.
RacPack will live on in the heart of Lotion Daddies, consider it our first form. RacPack merch will continue to be sold, I plan to make all the emotes stickers and if you want a specific kind of item please do let me know.
I’m not saying RacPack is for babies or that I’m abandoning you. I just think it’s best if I let YOU in on the whole thing.
Think of me as a police officer sketching the man who took a shit on your car hood. You’re telling me what looks good and what matches the description, but I’m the one sketching it out, fine tuning it, making it all fit.
Behind RacPack was all of you, even if I labeled you as something I wanted.
Behind Lotion Daddies is still you. The color, the jokes, the ideas, I can see how it lights up most of your faces. It feels right.
Why “Lotion Daddies”?
Thats a little odd. Naming it “Lotion Daddies”. What? Didn’t want to do Club Lemon Party you sick fuck? Hold on. I didn’t name it Lotion Daddies because I’m a pervert, I named it Lotion Daddies because it’s an inside joke that grew too large to be squandered. Originally I joked about owning the Lotion Daddies web domain, then I actually bought it, then it became a running joke, then it became what I called some of you, then it became what I called all of you, now it’s our community. It all happened overnight, it all happened so fast, but two months later and I’m still laughing.
Lotion Daddies makes people curious, it makes people question whats going on. In a nutshell, thats me and thats us. I want people to DansGame.
What’s the new look?
Mainly it’s color and fun. It all started with Hawaiian Tees on Fridays then I realized how its the only item of clothing that doesn’t immediately get a “you wore that yesterday”. It gets “wtf are you wearing” or “sick shirt broski”. It’s comfy to wear and it makes me smile. If its what you remember me by then thats cool too. Later I thought to myself I love colorful anything really, why not wear the hawaiian tee shirt everyday and change the shirt underneath. Then I considered buying a green screen to see how much more creative I could be, I realized that it’s potential is limitless and you can really do some neat scenes with it. I wanted an aesthetic, I wanted a look to go by. My language is colorful, my shirt is colorful, why not make the stream colorful and fun too?! Then it naturally evolved into the floral, beachside, nightclub stream that it is. Club Lotion Daddies is the #1 Surf/Night Club around.
The surfer bro lingo makes me smile. The colors make me smile. Its all been really infectious. Thats why I keep going with it and all of your suggestions have been really helpful too. Feel free to come on by the stream and let me know if you’re digging it.
Whats the future look like?
Like its going to be a lot of fun. I’m off to visit Rhi in Ireland soon, 13 days as I write this. Which means that a lot of elements of the stream and all that surrounds it is going to be periodically updating. As the changes come I will update you here on stream, here on Medium, on Twitter and on Discord.
When I return from Ireland we’ll continue right where we left off and I hope to have a “Lotion Daddies Day” to celebrate all the new changes and the new direction.
Emotes will be swapped, the chat bot will be a bit different, I will refer to some of you with new titles and names. It’ll be hilarious.
I love our demographic now, it feels like our community is full of dope dudes that I want to hang out with. I definitely want to do more community casts, after stream hangouts and contests/competitions. I’m stoked, very stoked.
It’s late as I write this post but I hope it clears some confusion.
Never hesitate to ask a mod or myself whats going on. I know change can be a bit weird, especially what I’m doing here, but I promise you that I have never loved streaming so much and I look forward to every stream. Your support has helped me see Rhi a lot easier but it’s also gotten me to this point, where I honestly have never been less stressed. I’m truly pleased that I have the opportunity to entertain you all for hours on end.
Thank you and my next post should be less nonsensical.

Edit: What should I do with this RacPack case, shirt, poster?
Keep it, rock it, flaunt it! Maybe something will come along soon that’ll warrant replacing that bad boy. Side note, not many content creators will change their community name, or try and pull something like this off.
It’s not starting over, it’s evolving. If you weren’t around to watch this happen then it probably shouldn’t affect you at all. Get excited with us.
It’s a bold idea, one worth exploring.
I’ve got a million reasons to go down the Lotion Daddies route, but only one for the RacPack. To play it safe. I don’t want to play it safe, I don’t want to wallow in my grave, I may have dug it myself but I can crawl out just the same.
