Nothing he can do.

Has anyone noticed he has a Martial Arts trophy on top of his filing cabinet. Wonder if that is his EVO trophy that says "Ranked 4 in a Neo Geo Conversion of Street Fighter". If that is an actual martial arts trophy that must be when he was a kid and probably keeps it around as that is the only trophy he got in his life. Also it probably is a Participation Trophy.

It's such a terrible and inefficient setup for someone that spends most of their 'working day' in there . He said the guys that set it up for him mentioned something about things having to be where they are and I guess he never bothered to move stuff around, even though they probably just said that because it was the least effort for them. It was dusty AF not even a year in - when he was doing his Zelda/Switch reveal/unboxing last year he actually got down where the consoles and TV are and you could tell it had never been cleaned once.

Scenario: "The cable modem has to be here because of reasons beyond my control"

Normal person: "Buy a $2 network cable allowing you to place anything anywhere within 100 meters of the the modem"

DSP: "Position entire desk and room based upon position of cable modem"

I think that's actually his Tekken 3 mall tournament trophy from when he just spammed Phoenix Smasher as Paul.

No way it's an actual martial arts trophy. If it was he would have been bragging about it for years, like he was the second coming of Bruce Lee and claiming he would have been UFC Champion if not for his back injury.

Are all his pre-streams about "how you can help me..." pleas for financial attention? I follow a bunch of twitch streams(some boob streams, okay *snort*), and they do not go in length on how one can help them. The most I've seen an extensive plea for financial support lasted 5 mins. Phil runs to the tune of an hour repeating "i need tips because I get that now." He has no soul.

DSP also doesn't understand that electricity moves at literally the speed of fucking light and thinks an extra 5 feet of cable is going to add signal delay that a human being can perceive.

I believe his specific thing about cable distances was about the HDMI cables, and not about lag but rather about connectivity issues. Which isn't applicable when you're talking about use in a bedroom (30-50ft is fine).

Then you look at his videos of his "office" and almost every fucking USB cable has extensions which is 100x worse than using long HDMI or ethernet cables. HDMI and Ethernet usually work or don't work. USB has a whole lot more issues when you get into longer cables which probably explains half of his audio/charging bugs on his consoles.

I was looking at Washington's rules on operating a business from your home and apparently you need a business license to operate one. Has Phil ever mentioned he has a business license or permit to do that? I say this because I remember a YouTuber, Kossdf, got evicted from his home because his county did not allow operating a business from your home.

Phil is aware that you need one. In one of the early Washington vlogs he showed that Leanna had one for her soap. Since this is Phil he probably forgot and HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW YOU NEED A BUSINESS LICENSE.

I think she only needed one because soap is a physical product that you have to manufacture/ship/sell. I don't think people working from home really need "licenses". AFAIK "licenses" are different to registering a business for tax purposes, sort of like a license for a kitchen or some shit like that.

Could lose the house yet one of the conditions for Kat moving in was that they saved the house. I hope she can get a job ASAP and start saving so she can move out on her own, I still think that's her long term goal, will be funny if he has to move back to CT in the next 12 months and she refuses to go with him. Still wild how he says 2017 was the biggest year in terms of income he's had in like 5 years. Yet he spent the entire year begging like crazy. He knows the entire reason he had a big surge in income was BECAUSE of the incessant begging, and now it won't ever stop.

Someone just cheered and asked Phil why he doesn’t try joint filing taxes with kat because he could save a ton on them. He seemed pretty annoyed at the question and answered that he couldn’t do that “for personal reasons”.

Did Kat leave Phil?

I will die of laughter if Phil lost his relationship as fast as his sponsorship

EDIT:
Shortly after someone cheered or tipped or whatever and requested that Phil yell out a hello to kat so she could hear him. Phil lets out this "hello" in his normal voice and goes to the next cheer ASAP.

This together with the fact that Phil is not showing Kat anymore in his Instagram, not constantly namedropping her, not referring to her as MUH GIRLFRIEND SOULMATE anymore (just calls her kat now) and is banning anyone who mentions her in chat (much like he did when it was suspected that Leanna broke up with him -- and it was true!), leads me to believe that this is legit. Something is up with their relationship.
