Is this post to brag that he is spending quality time with his soul maid? I thought they ran extremely tiring errands all day on 'mental health' time off days
Amazing he interchanges 'we' and 'I' so freely:
'we can get over this' and 'I've overcome every hurdle'...
Umm the pay pigs are basically joint owners in that house
So allegedly, if the pay pigs continue to 'contribute' for ~2 years, MAYBE he can refinance and package all his debts into a bigger loan. Clearly no foresight.
Seems that his 'business' is based on unknown persons donating money at his request to pay for taxes / bills, especially around December. No way will he ever reduce spending on non essentials in his house
His videos are low effort re-uploads of Phils videos with gif's slapped on top with next to no editing and I believe he runs ads on them (at least he did, not sure if he stopped) Thats the general reason people dislike him
He still does run ads, from what I've seen only 1 around end time. He seems to have only edited in his own intro and not just using salt documentaries although In the video I posted he edited it into his intro.

The fact he seems to think this is something he should be allowed to expect to happen makes me fucking sick. He's a charity, he's not a hard-worker, he's not a elite legacy. He's a charity.
"I need to hold out for a while"
For how long? It's been a full year of taxes now and apparently it's worse than ever. Another 2 years? By his own maths we'll be looking at what, 25k next Christmas? 35k the next. This is unfeasible and incredibly unsustainable. He's expecting people every year to not only cover his costs throughout the year, but his taxes at the end of the year and also to be prepared the next year to pay out more for what they already donated.
This is a level of scum I personally have never seen on Twitch. At what point does the boat sink? He's apparently been on the brink for years. Every time he somehow gets to carry on. So is his situation not as bad as he's making out? I don't believe this is luck. Something is without doubt going on that he's hiding. Either he's lying about the severity of the situation, or there's no fucking situation.
You cannot be on the brink this much and apparently a hair's breadth from financial ruin every 6 months. He proudly boasts about his unnecessary costs then cry at Christmas that "we need to come together". No Dave, they don't. They're people with lives. They're people with families and friends. They are not and should not be financially responsible for a 36 year old man who can't get rid of shit he doesn't need.
"it would ruin the whole year"
Without doubt. It would be a major ego knee-shot to lose this big house. Compared to what though? Constantly worrying about affording it even knowing you can't afford it? Compared to being so in the hole you're begging stranger every few months for thousands of dollars? At what point is enough enough? Does he want to die rather than lose the house?
"I know you watch ads on YT but you need to do more"
No they don't Phil. You need to do something different.
What a fucking joke this cunt is. What a bunch of mongs his viewers are to even consider enabling this.
Of all things why the persona 5 anime? It didn’t get a dub and I really can’t see dave sitting down and reading the sub. Although having to focus on reading the subtitles is a pretty good excuse for dave and his ket not to interact with each other during the show
A very strange pick indeed. It must have been Kat's pick (free trial my ass) because it definitely represents the page one/choice one style Kat's become known for when it comes to things she likes. Just choose the first thing on offer. If it were left to Phil and anime they'd probably be watching Samurai Jack. "I mean it must be from Japan he's got a ninja sword, right?"
On the contrary, he saved up the biggest of all plans for december. As you see, he announced 4 events which shall motivate his servants to donate an exorbitant amount of good money. Of course they are always motivated to pledge in between those 4 days, so his business can be saved. Therefore, if you think about it, these events aren't very meaningful or different from his usual begging. Is it the program which could make the difference? Or is it the existence of the events themself which should remind the paypigs to donate, over and over again, until their wallets are dried up? As the wise Jim Sterling spoke: The amount of money is limited. If his minions possess the power and will to save his fatty ass, they would surely do that right away outside or without some special events. Because in fact, the special event in it's entirety already exists: GIMME MONEY OR I LOSE MY HOUSE PLEASE DO IT FAST UNTIL APRIL OHGOD PLS IT'S ALL TEVIN'S FAULT.
Let us move the curtain and review the pigroache's 4 step plan. Embrace for the face of the culprit.
The usual lies and blames are distracting, so let us ignore them for the moment.
Prepare yourselfs for the "Uuuuuh effort to raise funds".
(1) Indies-Marathon
(2) "Annual" wrestling-simulation fantasy matches
(3) Holiday gaming marathon
(4) Special Christmas Eve Podcast
"Four completely separate events". Let's look into it.
His time is of course limited so he might play every game just for a few hours. What exactly can you achieve in just a few hours, especially the confusing ones? The long winded ones? Not that much, so the playing of games (the washing of dishes) might be pointless.
Minecraft, finally again after 3 years. Literally everybody and his mother knows the in and outs of Minecraft, while Dave will still be blind to any possibilities. Minecraft is only as good as you are willing to plan and be creative. You need some knowledge to be as efficient as possible to create just something simple in his limited timeframe. This will be without a doubt boring and headache inducing.
If Minecraft is still considered an "indie" title is up to debate, but not for now. But factually, there are better options for an indie-game. Like, something from the current year.
Axiom Verge, a very good Metroid tribute. As he pointed out in the past, he's not a big fan of metroidvania games, a weakness clearly understood in his case. In those games you have to put 1 and 1 together, be willing to explore, and most importantly remember obscure barriers in the past. I can also just imagine how much invested he will read the story, will he skip them? Wil he read it very fast and not interested? I don't know. But for sure it will be a handholding game. Ex-ci-ting.
I Wanna Be The Guy which he will now play for the third time. Last time the hero wouldn't jump, because of his keyboard - of course. It was also very painful to watch, as he has the reaction time of a frozen gorilla. It's hard to come up with a comparison, but I can't compare Dave with Dave, you see? I don't really understand why he would torture anyone again with this shit, especially if there will be clearly no real progress. Because IWBTG isn't made for progress.
Stardew Valley which is considered a chill project. I'd say a boring project. Stardew Valley is slow, even if you know what to do. It's a good game, but this is now the fourth slow game in his list, with Axiom Verge with the possibly fastest progression and at least some action. SV is also a game which many people already know, as it was - and still is - a very popular replacement for Harvest Moon.
Sonic Dreams Collection, which is not even really a "game" but more like an internet meme. This game was probably picked to make the jokes for him, as the usual Dave is not really an insightful or funny entertainer. Prepare your anuses for "Oh mah gahd", "What's this", "What the fuuuck", "What's going on ackackack" and at some point sex jokes. There won't be much else than this.
All in all, his choices aren't very exciting, at least for me. I know every single one of them, seen them multiple times during the years, played by different people or I played them myself, multiple times. As usual Dave is way too late to jump on this specific indie-train. These games were probably already in his library; they cost money, you know?
Playing games he already played is as eventful as just playing Dark Souls for the sixtillionth time: He does what he should do as a videogame entertainer. I fail to see the special aspect of day 1.
In 2 wrestling games he creates or downloads fantasy wrestlers. If he will just let them fight or fight with them himself, who knows. "This event will take all day because it takes time to set up these matches, at least half an hour each". Sounds hardly like any fun. I also have to repeat myself: It might be some sort of special for Dave, but what he does is nothing special for most other streamers. They would just set a regular day for a fun idea, because many days are filled with fun ideas. So I fail to see the special aspect of day 2. Also, how "annual" is this? I really don't know.
Dave will be dressed up and he will be drinking that day. Because getting drunk is apparently considered as work and worth pledging to. How can you not pledge to this sober looking man? View attachment 608008
He drinks gin each night, so this activity isn't really eventful. However, apparently and with LUCK the patreons will vote for the game this time, if he just doesn't make an executive decision. Of course he says people loved that marathon last year, because if Dave says people loved it, then it must be true. Everyone loves Dave, he always makes the most fun and totally not boring content.
Is that all? Yes, this is all. He plays a game, which he does 6 days a week anyway, and drinks alcohol in a costume - by the way, he's neither a children's entertainer nor a clown . Very, very, very eventful, my friends. Unfortunately I have no idea what his pol entails. Just so much: Again, I fail to see the special aspect of day 3. Other streamers would love to play games their audiences ask for.
Or the "Holiday Vlahg" as he pronounces it. He just hangs around with people and talks about the holidays. Or do we know better? Possibly just a prestream in disguise with a lot of begging and blaming. So he talks, which he normally does anyway, more than he even should do. In any case, day 4 fails to meet my expectation as something special or as an event for two reasons: First, as stated, he talks in his prestream anyway. Second, he was known for entire vlogs where he talks about his life. Now because he resurrects the dead, it's special? Clearly not. A special event is something surprising. For example a fundraiser for a good organisation, and not himself - again.
So what exactly is the special event in those non-special-events? He puts up a goal on screen, with the progress he made. wow
Let me transfer my opinion right to you, Phil. An event which would make people donate and possibly save your home would be something you are literally unable to do. Not anyone else, just you. It demands you swallow your pride and ego, start to be open to opinions which aren't just parroted copies of yours. What you have to do is make an open invitation to at least your audience. A real event would include the fans you depend on during the current hot time. You have to be able to increase your charisma - you stupid fuck. Play something with them! You don't have to talk with them, just play stuff with them! Or what would really shake the earth, is when you would consider inviting everyone, detractors or fans alike. But you are sadly unable to laugh at yourself, you unfunny failed attempt of an entertainer.
This would be an event. Not your plan of isolated OLD single player games, drinking alcohol and talking about your tax problems. Get a grip, old man. It's not hard to see why people doubt your story of the hole which sucks in your money, when you won't even jump over your own shadow to save your lazy hairy ass.
His plan so far, broken down:
Pledge me money. But more than ever before! lol
A genius at work.
You've never seen his annual wrestling sim videos?! They are the pinnacle of his simulated wrestling content.
Here's how it goes down. Phil gets a bunch of "wacky" characters like Spider man and Robocop and Darksydephil. Then he makes the computer fight itself for an hour while reeing at the television and laughing at his own jokes. It's horrible.
I would post a link to one of the videos, but I don't want anyone to have to watch them.

So it is indeed what I expected. He takes the effort to do nothing, an event created to stare at a screen while the machine does the hard work of entertaining his audience. Doing nothing is the hard part, coming up with entertainment is way easier.
His effort being, as stated, setting up each fight for around half an hour (why it takes so long stays a mystery) instead of preparing it beforehand. I guess he's a gamer - who needs 16kplus - he has no time to prepare any of it. I'm sorta surprised he was able to put up the lights behind him off cam, probably because Kat did it while he stired in a pot of oversugared meatballs.
Setups are of course very chill. For the record, his next chill event in January starts with the "New Years Offline Pledge Extravaganza" where he won't start the stream at all, because dead silence is very chill - and not very different from his usual gameplay. But he will read all of your cheers. Offline.
Chill and comfy ga-THIS GAME SUCKS, DOOD! WHAT THE FUCK!? I WAS DAHDGING! STUPID PIECE OF SHIT GAME! THIS CAHMBAT IS TERRIBLE! THE GAME SUCKS, DOOD, IT REALLY DOES! ASSHOLE DEVELOPERS!
I love it! i think i joined here around October last year, a month or so after he said he NEEDED the money to save the house, here we are once again, almost like i'v been in a time chamber sent back into the past, he needs to raise the money by April AGAIN or he will lose the house, it feels warm.
Remind me again why he cant move back to the house he cant sell but is still paying for, why doesnt he just leave the place he is now, what is actually stopping him aside from brain cells?
I really hope that Phil realizes how much better everything would be if he didn't want to be a Real Full Time Adult so bad. He needed so badly to move across the country with his Full Time Girlfriend to his Real Adult House so he didn't have the shame of living near his parents.
He'd be close to his parents (even though he'd never visit still lol ), he'd be making 6 figures without his credit cards maxed out without a second condo. He'd easily be able to afford any toys he wants plus vacations to California... I'd say Europe but he's definitely the type to complain that no one speaks English so maybe the UK but that's probably too much work Florida, New York
Yet here he is... Completely broke with his horse, thousands of miles away from his parents, paying for a condo no one has set foot in for years
According to Phil's last Thanksgiving Day stream, he actually paid $5000 for a tax guy to sort out his taxes because he couldn't be bothered to take 4 hours of his day to do it himself...
Remind me again why he cant move back to the house he cant sell but is still paying for, why doesnt he just leave the place he is now, what is actually stopping him aside from brain cells?
According to that same stream, he claimed that he couldn't afford the move back to the Connecticut condo.
He is still paying for it. He could just take that money he's expecting to spend on the condo and put that into the move, in turn making whatever he'd get for the Whakhando :/
(Plus it'd solve the situation with being unable to visit his apparently dying parents.)

Although the wrestling-sim-videos are pretty much the only time where Dave genuinely seems to enjoy doing his job.
So I give him a little slack in that regard.
But yeah, compared to other Wrestling-YouTubers, Dave is still the lowest of the low.
All this “marriage” bullshit is just Phil in damage control over Leanna bailing out. He knows he fucked up, so he’s trying to erase her from his daily life with a replacement actor.
It’s like when Luke and Bo walked off The Dukes of Hazzard and they were replaced by actors no one liked because the studio wanted to make more money.
He doesn’t give a good god damn about marrying some skank. He just wanted somebody to take over the role of the panda and he chose a horse since he thought the audience would eat it up. Turns out the horse can’t act for shit and doesn’t want to, so he’s flailing for a new storyline.
Doesn't he constantly harp on how hard he works after the stream ends? He professes to spending Hours or 10 mins ( depending on which narrative he is pushing at the moment ) "baby sitting" his YT vid uploads. For him not to notice that the vids did not go live until the wee hours of the morning doesn't speak well of his baby sitting skills. One ponders now if he has been 'baby sitting' them at all. From this, one might speculate that he drag-n-drops the files into an upload page, copy-pastas tags, slaps his plugs in the description box and then ambles downstairs to drink gin in front of the TV till 3am.

When talking about his financial issues & the negative impact on his mood during streams (while strangely also conversely saying others haven't seen or commented any negative impact):
"...I guess that's just a testament to the fact that I've done this so long, that um, basically ah, I'm pretty good at this... You know what I mean?
Um, I'm pretty good at this and I'm pretty good at not letting the stuff that's bothering me get to me and/or show on the streams"
This is the shit that really gets me, he admits in the video he USE to have no problems affording his house, until his life was destroyed by the trolls. When in reality it’s been many things that have contributed to his decline, the fact remains he bought a house at the height of his income across the country. The YouTube bubble burst, your popularity declined and people attacked you because you’re an asshole. Whatever the reason the fact is you don’t make the money you use to make when you could afford the house, time to fucking cut the fat. A doctor who got fired and has to work at McDonald’s isn’t going to just stay in the same house or drive the same car if they splurged out with their money. He’s got this warped sense of reality that since he could afford something before he always deserves to have it, not how life works piggy. Begging will not continue to make up the difference in your bills, and your bubble is going to burst again.
What really baffles me is when Phil complains that everything went wrong for him, he just assumed everything would stay constant. He would keep earning the same money, Patreon would slowly keep increasing, etc. In no way did Phil forsee any reason to save money because he seems to only look one week ahead. Loads of Youtubers were hit by the adpocalypse and none of them ended up falling on their asses as hard as Phil. But as we know, none of it can be Phil's fault. It's youtube and tevin making him lose money and sponsorships.
Also Phil in his latest video said he needs to keep earning for two years. That's two more years after his $16k from his fans, he still thinks that he can stay at some constant while depending on tips and a rapidly shrinking patreon is the hardest denial I've seen in a while.
DSP is honestly amazing at gaslighting tbh. In all his begging, he's so good at misleading and manipulating people that I forget he's trying to get people to save his second home. He's making out like he'll be homeless. No, faggot, you'll just have to sell your giant house and move into a slightly smaller home or, at worst, move back to that small kahndo. The very worst case scenario is that DSP still has all his shit, a roof over his head, and food on the table. He just doesn't have a giant house that he can't afford bleeding him dry.

I honestly see it this way:
Moving is stressful. Put all your stuff together, dismantle heavy stuff, renovate, somehow move everything to the other side of the country, move the heavy stuff in, construct, renovate again, Kat has to search for a new job, he has to buy new foam for the walls, his Wolverine spine can't handle it, moving also costs additional money,... I think this is a lot of unnecessary stress he wants to avoid. I know I would. But I was not the person who decided to cross the whole country and make everything way more difficult, in a house I could only afford by taking credit.
Question, because I never took a credit. Aren't credits given for investments, because they want to have that money back at some point? In which way is "paying taxes" an investment? I'm halfway sure this is not how credits work. And the other halfway makes me think he scams the bank by making them believe this is an investment. But I could be wrong, feel free to inform me.

And anyone who thinks he wouldn't pull exactly the same schtick if he were forced to move back to CT is fooling themselves. For every bout of financial woes he's expressed over the years he's never once provided any sort of proof. If he found himself landed back in his bachelor pad I'd give him two months before he started with "gonna wind up living back with my parents, dood! can't let that happen, guys!"
DSP will weave any story he has to in order to stay on the streamer dole. It's the main reason why I think his laziness ultimately trumps his ego - at the end of the day he sleeps just fine no matter how humiliating the story is he needs to tell. So long as he doesn't actually need to enter the real world and find work.
