- A little vlog of our time spent chasing the dregs of summer across The Adriatic Sea in a somewhat desperate attempt to be *inspired*.
I had just as much fun editing this as I did living it. I hope you enjoy.
Love always,
Lady Dakota

“On Sun Swallowing is a sweet and bloody collection of poetry and prose, dancing in the spaces between skinned knees and red wine, satin and switchblades, rosaries and Dionysian ecstasy. Her writings are haunted by the ghosts of girlhood, god/s, lovers and the landscape of childhood, but Warren is unflinching - she haunts her ghosts in return, with sharp lyricism and cutthroat vulnerability.
On Sun Swallowing explores shadowy emotion, at times in a whisper, at times in a scream. Think: cheap cigarettes, even cheaper wine, and an oath to reach hell by midnight and be home in time for work in the morning.”
this is 26 (exquisite) minutes of dakota saying meaningful things while i'm running around in the background behaving like a toddler
you just became her child 😂
@@sourbeltsroll honestly 😂
dakota: yes sophistication and writing
jack: during the poo break I also pooed
It’s like that one Lorde song, “You can be the class clown, I’ll be the beauty queen in tears. It’s a new art form showing people how little we care.”
@@natalie3493 woah
this is so dreamy, not just the location but the friendship you guys have to encourage each other in your passions
I'm 17 and if I don't live my life the way lady Dakota lives, I don't have any idea what will I do with my life. She's a vision.
Close to 17 and same
I’m 17, 18 in November. I want to pursue all of my dreams. Dakota and Jack are both so sweet and inspiring.
she really is
Remember that this is CZcams. This isn’t real life, essentially. Live your life how you want to, and if I have learned anything, it’s that life is impossible to predict, so take each day as it comes.
Me too literally
there is something so peaceful and raw about dakota’s videos, and her friendship with jack makes this even more beautiful to watch
"It's a fickle thing, existence. But we have to do it. And it's probably better to love it."
This hits different when I spent most of summer rotting in my room because it was extremely hot outside, I had no physical and mental strengh, and apparently my "friends" forgot of my existance. Like, I lived a Gregor Samsa kind of summer
ur not the only one, ppl go through the same thing. its hard but i hope for u a fullfilling and happy summer soon
I’ve had my share of Gregor Samsa summers. If I can triumph them, you can triumph them. Sending you love. ❤️
@@dakotawarren Lady Dakota has answered me and I couldn't feel more honored. Thank you so much my lady, the blog gave me hope that one day I'll stop hating summer as much as I do now
I’ve never related to anything more in my life! At least we have books ❤️
Every summer for me has just been melting in the sweltering heat and wishing the dread of hot weather and persistent bugs would cease, and colder weather would make itself familiar again. All in all, summer is hardly fun when you have no where to go.
watching u guys talk so passionately to each other about writing and literature is so
babe wake up Dakota Warren posted
i loved being a fly on the wall to your conversations with Jack
Okay as a writer who has no friends who write, I cannot explain how much I adore this video. Watching you and Jack write side by side, reading poetry, living life. Sublime.
Dakota and Jack together give me so much serotonin, i love you guys !!
jack mansplaining numbers is the funniest thing i've seen in a while
Writing in general is tricky. There’s a lot of planning that goes into crafting a story. Vlogs like these are like food for the soul and mind. Everything’s just so calm and simple.
actually convinced that jack is the funniest person alive
Fully agree
I'm actually from Croatia so I'm really happy you two spent some time in my home country🥰 I hope you had a great time and that you come again!
this video literally made me cry because i was so overwhelmed with how beautiful it was and how much joy it gave me.
you inspire me so incredibly much and make me excited for my future 💗💗
this comment filled me with joy. love you ❤️
A friendship like Jack’s and Dakota’s is all I ask for
a vlog by dakota was all i could ever ask for in life, i love you ALSO JACK IS SO FUNNY
Please can we have a tattoo tour. I want to know the meanings behind all of your tattoos lady Dakota ❤️
Yessss
i second this!!
Their friendship is just so beautiful, even all the chaos
This gave me; somewhere in Europe, in a time that's endless and neverending. Kind of close to Call Me By Your Name vibes lol I was waiting for a Sufjan Stevens track to start 😂
your friendship, your aesthetic, your passion for literature >>>>
you visiting croatia made me so happy
I love how pure and magical Dakota is - I imagine she's the kind of person not everyone understands because she lives in such a way that isn't encouraged in today's fast-paced society. She searches for the magic in life, cultivates living at a peaceful stride, but also embraces the uncertainty. I want to live like Dakota - because the thought of living like every day is a moment to cherish makes living far more enticing
While I agree there are people who most people don't understand I don't like that phrasing so much bc it reads so much like "not like other people" and I've met a lot of people who exude this sort of vibe of "I'm different = I'm special" and I know it comes from growing up feeling different and having to learn to love themselves despite feeling alienated, but this can easily slip into a form of inferiority complex where you elevate yourself above others, and I think everyone is special in their own way. Sorry for the long essay. I don't even know if you meant it that way (I'm sure you didn't) but it's a slippery slope. Plus it suggests other people aren't looking for magic in life in their own way that I'm sure you may not understand, either. Just general love and understanding is what I promote. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk 😅
18:23 I crave this kind of relationship/friendship. You both have such beautiful energy 🥺❤️
its the juxtaposition for me, the aesthetic vs Jack 🤣
you did in fact say kvaliteno vino correctly! the plavac hvar was off but to be fair they did write it together on the front.
i loved watching this vlog and following your and jacks journey in general thru instagram! i have a friend down there in dubrovnik so it made me want to visit her even more !!
kako je meni bilo prijatno iznenađenje da vidim sok (ja mislim nektarov) u njenom videu!!!
i love these intimate vlogs because they are so cozy. i feel like i’m there with you, writing or just relaxing after dark. it’s amazing.
As always your videos are whimsy and magical, thank you for another great one!
Your friendship is so lovely and I found your discussions on reading & writing very insightful. Also, it was so nice to see your writing process for your upcoming novel, can't wait to read it. I received On Sun Swallowing yesterday and devoured it in one sitting. I'm not a person that usually understands poetry but you made it approachable to me, so thank you :)
this summer i started writing poetry again
i’ve tried before but i was in my “if i’m not a genius then there’s no point in even trying to write” phase
but talking to a stranger on the train to my hometown left me feeling inspired again, as well as watching your videos - i realised that i don’t have to be perfect, and i don’t have to show anyone my poems for them to judge
looking at you and jack though reminded me of my friend who is also the only person i shared a couple of my poems with recently
she sounded like she genuinely liked them and well..i know have an outlet, now i can finally let something inside me breathe, something that i’ve stifling for years
so thank you for that nudge to create, Dakota
oh my god the love i have for this artwork of a video is inexpressible. it's one of the rare moments that capture the feeling of wine running through veins, the fleeting spectre of youth and pure unbridled divinity. this duo's chemistry is to die for, the godly music, and the cinematography is Delight in distilled form. I’m only mid-way through and already in tears because it is actual fking perfection from start to finish. coming from a little writer vulnerable to beauty’s unexpected attacks, thank you for existing lady Dakota. your novel isn’t even published, yet it already feels infused by magic and so much soul.
I can’t even begin to tell you how much i love and appraciate you.
the energy you guys have is ELECTRIC!! can't wait to read the books
this felt so intimate. i love this & you
you guys are the definition of my bisexual panic
I've been loving this collab sm
name a better duo than jack n dakota bc u literally cant
this made me smile so so much
this was so beautiful, i love your friendship so much :’)
waking up to a new dakota video sounds so dreamy
this was so lovely to watch, filled my heart with joy :)
umm, thank you for being the creator of this piece of work that i immediately fell in love with and shall revisit time and time again
This vlog is so beautiful visually ! And i am happy that you're having fun ! You ywo deserve it . I kind of did the same thing with my family and i think i finished my poetry collection(in french but i am from tunisia ) !
Idea for a future video ; please do a fashion lookbook !! With autumn or winter clothes cause i think your style is immaculate
I second that fashion video idea! And congrats on finishing your poetry collection! I also speak French so whenever so please update us in Dakota's comments when you publish it😍
Taisha J L thank you so much !!! I will for sure !!! (If you want you can follow me on my art account ; @liliasmuseum .

This vlog was just beautiful 🤍✨😭
everything about this is amazing and beautiful. but I really love to see this friendship!!!
lady dakota, hereby i want to announce what an absolutely glorious, ethereal and purely inspirational being you are. watching your videos re-awakens the butterflies in my tummy. thank you for existing and sharing your being with us. it means the world.
I love your videos when you two are together. Leaning out the window scared me. I'm a nurse and a safety girl. I loved the Villain book too.
this is now myfavorite video on the internet
i always always ALWAYS come back to this video whenever i feel like there's worms eating my brain. the visual, the music used, lady Dakota's laugh, everything about this cures my rotting sprint.
I can understand how you feel, I've been also working on the same novels for years. I wish I was as fancy as you on a writing retreat. It sounds really fun. Good luck and I hope you can finish it soon.
i love how during your wine talks the camera keeps going in and out of focus - very apt
i’ve been waiting for this
i absolutely love the scene where you dance. so in the moment, soaking life up.
How do you look so gorgeous just making breakfast??? Girl, your skin is glowing! This vlog was stunning and gave me a little break from reality, absolutely loved it. Xoxo
I don't know exactly how to describe it but Dakota is such a calm yet chaotic presence in her videos. Almost like what I imagine the primordial Khaos in Hesiod's Theogony would be like in the modern world. Not chaos in the way we understand it, but a beautiful, calm kind of chaos.
wow, that's beautifully yet accurately said!
hyper jack guzzling liquid that hyper dakota was drowning him in gave me the biggest laugh ive had in days lol. what a dreamy adventure! hope you both are doing well
Dakota is the most unique content creator i have ever watched. She makes her videos personal on another level. She gives the viewer a sense of...home. I'm not sure its the right word to use but she strives for a sense comfortability for her viewers.
Fabulous woman, i love her
you are such a glorious inspiration, i love you dearly
September 1st, I am so happy to be finally in Fall in my head until I saw your video. It gave me CMBYN vibes and I love it!
Dakota is life, she is the moment. To be Dakota is an experience. I would want a similar experience some day. You inspire me.
Cold Enough for Snow is such a gentle and quiet read. i recc it for anyone who needs to slowmax their life ✨💛
Dakota! Keep posting frequently. I always check for your notification. please keep posting as soon and as much as possible.
thank you lady dakota for bringing all of us along to croatia
There’s something so beautiful about friends laughing with each other over silly little things
jack is so hilarious like i can'ttt''!'!@\[!! my siblings just came in my room to check on me because i was laughing so hard watching the video😭😭
The soundtrack for this video is literal perfection 👌❤️
this has made my heart weep with joy and envy and then shatter
Congratulations on your progress and milestones!
I love mermaid Dakota at the beginning
your friendship is inspirational, which seems dramatic but i think it’s perfectly reasonable
watching this makes me feel so safe
I LOVE THIS OH MY GOSH!!!
you are such a beautiful soul that it almost pains me-- i hope your stay was wonderful and exhilarating and memorable !! i also MUST have my own private writer's retreat with someone in the future
had this on in the background and jumped when Jack started reading la belle dame sans merci as I studied that poem in my GCSE anthology !! I'd also recommend Neutral Tones by Thomas Hardy - that's the one other poem that's stuck with me
this video is what I needed
I do not know how many times I have watched this video
manifesting friendships like this pretty please
i love you both so much💘💘
I don't know which part I loved more, the normal video or the out-takes hahaha
Jack and Dakota's friendship >>>
my favourite duo
i love this friendship
My favorite video on the entire internet
Written by Emily Henry
the very last clip KILLED me
i am in love thank you
The way I was highlighting all mentions of the sun and summer in On Sun Swallowing when I got to the 3 summer talk
This video made me inexplicably happy
new dakota's video🫶🏼🫶🏼
Hello Lady Dakota! I have stumbled on your video extremely early and I just want to say I love you.
You inspire me so much and I want to live a life like yours, also your poems mean everything to me im postive we have lived the same EXACT same life.
Also I would be so exhilarated if you released more of your beautiful work and brain
Ahhh love u guys!!!!
I simply adore the part where the two of you read each other little snippets it was such a perfect moment!!!! I honestly aspire to acquire similar friendships where such serene settings and conversations are possible, natural even
9:30 jack is literally me every time I write literally anything
I love u Dak❤
I really love it and I am trying to write ❤️🍂
omg this was so amazing, I wish I could do this and have friends that encourage me to write
best duo on the internet
8:52 okay, but if this dance segment doesn't scream of the magic of dakota's spirit, I don't know what does
