He was talking about these:

Those backups are mainly from the "Almighty Tevin" channel along with the Archiver channel, but a lot of the content on the "Almighty_Tevin" channel wasn't backed up to that degree as far as I know.

He still has the "Almighty DJ Chiszle" channel atleast

I always think of this when it comes.to dsp arbitrary schedule and he gets something suggested out of the blue or has to do a forced qna if he finishes a game early and has 90mins left on stream.

What will be captured when the camera is ahn the whole time next?

Did he always hate Asians or was in only when he got beat by three Japanese players at some buggy port of Turbo when he hated them?

He must have encountered at least one asian before 4th place evo who was more successful then him scholastically, socially, or financially, so of course he hated all asians.

He probably saw some Asian kid's parent buy that Wolverine statue after his parents said no and it scarred him for life.

Okay so Phil's paypigs are essentially his "boss" if we're looking at this from the perspective of a job. They pay him, and they direct his "workload" for any given week. Imagine saying to your boss "You know what, I'm really fuckin' tired of doing the same shit day in and day out. Why do you want this particular work done? I'm supposed to be having fun and not being stressed out but you're asking me to do all this mundane busywork every single day."

Gee, wonder why he's been fired from every single real job he's ever had.

One day WWE Champions servers will close down and all his years of spending and effort will be lost to time like tears in the rain. There is no scenario Phil wins at life in.

Wouldn't surprise me if (or rather, that's what I would do) when a generation of a mobile game closes its servers and the next one is already on the market (as it usually is, AFAIK), very big whales - I do mean DSP-tier - get an e-mail offering them an account on the new game that's built up to "current standards".

It'd take a day, maybe a few if the spaghetti code is strong, to setup a way to turbo-boost an account without breaking anything, and the reward is potentially hooking a whale to the new game when they otherwise would have thought themselves too much behind the rest. The cost is virtually nothing, the gain is potentially tens of thousands of dollars per gained whale.

i don't think this happens, there's no reason to give whales anything when it's proven they have "very open wallets" and they'll just move to the next game and continue to spend

Asians -- Japanese and Koreans in particular -- represent everything Phil isn't. They're hardworking, goal-oriented, humble, clean, well-educated, polite, team-players; they're everything Phil aspires to be but can't.

I get what you mean, but phil doesn't aspire to be anything. phil just wants to use every loophole imaginable to be a lazy cunt.

The Japanese have such a huge number of Phil-types they have their own social class, they just live in shitty apartments rather than shitty condos and spend their money on idols rather than WWE.

One thing I've noticed recently with Phil is that it doesn't matter how well he's doing overall for any particular day -- he can make $200 on the day stream and $20 on the night stream and still be toxic AF to his audience for not tipping that night. It's like for him, the money is not just about greed to sustain his addictions, but it also ties into his ego, in the sense that he feels "cheated" for playing a game without receiving contributions for his "work". Money is a way for him to feel like what he's doing has value. If you don't contribute a large enough amount, then you clearly don't respect him enough for the "hard work" he's putting into these boring AF retro playthroughs.

Aspiration doesn't imply an actual willingness to work towards your goals. All narcissists have fantasies of success and power, and a distorted image of what they are, which deep down they're acutely aware of how they're not these things.

Out of a country of ~125 million people, about a million are estimated to be hikikomoris; hardly a condemnation of an entire society any more than the existence of NEETs in any other Western country is. Again, Phil thinks in stereotypes, and the common belief, which is true for most Japanese and South Koreans, is all of the traits I mentioned.

Also it's kind of reductionist to assume that a hikikomori is necessarily an all around bad person. They can still be clean, polite, humble, etc - all the classic stereotypes, and just not have a social life or a good work ethic.
