It's not exceptional because it clearly works.

It has the outward appearance of being functional but the amount of underlying stress and isolation he has will definitely have long term health effects.

I don't even know if DSP really considers his audience to be his "friends" but it really looks like that, and there are big issues with all of that and it'll show sooner or later.

There's no coming back. DrumfSydePhil is finished.

Oh there's definitely room for coming back still. It just depends when the penny actually drops.
Even if you leave aside the begathons and tax sagas, there is a lot more he could be doing to show he actually gives a fuck about vidya and if he managed to do that he could turn shit around.

Failing that, if his refinance saga works to his advantage or doesn't and he starts living within his means he makes more than enough money to survive on.

It's not exceptional because it clearly works.

An actually-disabled person can glue macaroni onto a paper plate and sell it as art. It's not just a matter of the end result, there's potential to consider. Phil has a collegiate degree, four functional limbs and a home of his own. What he could be doing with his life and even within his chosen career is miles beyond what he chooses to do.

That's why he's exceptional.

He will soon be making enough to afford all the Netherlander prostitutes he can dream of.

Rant over, but the only thing DSP should be doing right now is looking to take a long break from streaming and finding a more dependable source of income. I don't think its beyond his capabilities to actually be a more entertaining streamer, he just needs a lot more perspective.

The only problem is that he has no marketable skills. At this point he has dug himself into a hole and his only options are to continue digging until his misery ends him or work as a gas station attendant for the next 30 years. No place of employment is going to look at his work history and not laugh him out of the building. He can't get any job in video editing, media, etc because they will see the quality of his dogshit content and blacklist him. He has no option and I think that is why he seems so angry and depressed. He never planned ahead and spent outrageously and now he has to pull off a miracle and try to maintain his dying channels for the rest of his life as he has no options and no willingness to work anywhere else.

I've not really been one to shit on DSP when he's says he's depressed (I do think he's actually depressed but he obviously has no idea of what his depression or underlying issues are) but on this new year stream he attempted to explain something very poorly (I'm not a doctor, but I think this should be fairly common knowledge)...

♫ DSP triiiiies it: "Alcohol is a depressant so it can kinda make you feel bad and down" ♫

"Depressant" is a fantastic meme because although popularly referred to doesn't mean what a lot of people think it does (i.e.: "depressant means it makes you depressed"). "Depressant" refers to alcohol minimizing or depressing your senses, feelings, thoughts and brain and in particular your inhibitions and also potentially cause you to make decisions which you wouldn't normally have or take risks which can cause you or others harm).

If you're a keen student of DSP and sometimes travel to his prestream forest with your sperg-binoculars like an autistic bird watcher you'll already be familiar with one of his classic behaviors: avoidance. I don't think anyone would say he doesn't act or speak in a way which is avoidant almost every moment of his life.

So if you agree DSP is sometimes/often avoidant its easier to look at alcohol as "liquid avoidance" because instead of dealing with your break up/debt/job stress/slapfight you have a few drinks and suddenly the issue isn't as dramatic. The avoidant behavior with alcohol presents because a person can always have a few drinks and you can magically feel a lot less bad at whatever is causing you grief.

I'm sure there are people who are biologically depressed (which I doubt includes DSP or most people who experience mid-life depression) who react strangely with alcohol but "alcohol is a depressant" is just a meme, not because its incorrect but because people very often misconstrue the term "depressant" to mean depressed.

Alcohol is a fantastic depressant. It can make your quandaries in life disappear and make you momentarily forget the anxiety/blues/agitation you have during the day, that is why its a "depressant" and not because it makes a person feel depressed. The reason it is bad is because it minimizes a person's executive functions (increasing the chance a person makes bad/risky, short term/long term decisions with no regard for personal well being or consequence) and through continued alcohol use can eventually cause/contribute or combine with issues such as addiction, anxiety, alcoholism, compulsive behavior and depression (I believe most of these occur outside actual alcohol use and that alcohol is the escape people choose to avoid dealing with shit.

You can read more at the included link from Wikipedia, the ultimate source of medical information:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcoholic_drink

Highlighted for your autismal analysis:

So when he says "alcohol is a depressant" you can ignore his explanation because its wrong, but you can't discount him actually being depressed but what you can likely take it to mean the following:

• I'm anxious or feeling shit because of my debt and alcohol allows me to exacerbate or escape those feelings
• I'm anxious or feeling shit because of my soulmaid and alcohol allows me to exacerbate or escape those feelings
• I'm anxious or feeling shit because of losing my house and alcohol allows me to exacerbate or escape those feelings
• I'm worried I can't do anything to turn my streams into a more profitable enterprise and alcohol allows me to exacerbate or escape those feelings
• I'm worried that I already peaked in life 5 years ago with YouTube and alcohol allows me to exacerbate or escape those feelings
• I've always thought that I should branch into doing YouTube videos covering wrassling and I think I'd be good about it but I'm very apprehensive doing it because it might not be successful but I had a few drinks and it feels like it'd work right now.
• I'm threatened or hate people like Ninja and because I had a few drinks I'm very happy to talk about it openly on my Twitter at 3 AM.

And yeah even if he drinks only after streaming or "working" it still works as "liquid avoidance". I really doubt DSP is a full alcoholic but he probably shows some terms of alcohol dependence (meaning he pours himself a nice icey gin with a "gout soda" mixer each evening and lets his mind escape from his troubles).

If he were a fully fledged alcoholic I'd expect him to smash 6 shots of gin each morning and turn up to stream and call PewdiePie a white nigga. He hasn't really reached that point at all, but his likely "dependence" on alcohol on a regular basis probably isn't very healthy.

another piece of evidence towards phil making up for his insecurity being aesexual that goes along with the over the top snorting shitting farting burping gouting into the mic; he mutes the mic to blow his nose though. probably because blowing your nose can be considered "less manly" and phil cant reveal anything that doesnt fit his mold of being a manly man.

If true then he's certainly not muting himself consciously. But your mention of asexuality is far more interesting and has a lot more merit than the "closeted Phil" idea a lot of people have.

I doubt he's fully asexual (insert masturbate face screencap) but its probably more a very low/sporadic libido which isn't caused by him having a poor diet/extra weight. He's not even as fat as people try to think he is, but he's definitely completely out of shape and his physique is terrible (he could totally work out a lot more and have a greater physical appearance and general health).

I doubt most women even care about a lower libido guy (contrary to Tyrone memes) and I recall reading plenty of studies showing that physical affection in the form of hugs and physical touching are more desirable in the long term.

So yeah, maybe if he isn't full on asexual he at least doesn't care about getting nookie as much as would be expected.

Unfortunately, DSPs recent reputation as being a girlfriend-stealing chad who didn't actually hire a dutch escort is in contrast of that.

for me it's not that he's overweight, it's that he's overweight and has no muscle underneath
phil has probably never pushed himself physically in the last few years
i'm sure he gets winded going down the stairs

and he wants to walk around disneyland?
he'll be stopping at every bench, maybe he'll get to the castle and then tell kat (assuming she's there) to go rent a wheelchair

 

[Kosher Dill]

So Phil literally just said he'd go to the bank and show an increase in profits to try and get that refinance he so desperately needs.

OK doods, here's my plan, but I NEED YOUR HELP. First I'm going to consolidate all my unsecured debt, then I'm going to pay off the unsecured debt by refinancing the house. THEN I'm going to pay off the house by mortgaging my soul to the Prince of Darkness.
But to do that, I'm going to need YOU to get out there on social media and talk up what a pure and virtuous soul I am, so the Infernal Overlord sees what a great deal he's getting by corrupting me. Sound good?

He mutes the mic and goes off camera when allegedly "blowing his nose" because he's not actually blowing his nose. He's looking at guides/walkthroughs off screen whenever he makes that excuse.

I just took a peek at twitch and Ninja is broadcasting live from Times Square for 200,000 people.

Somewhere, DSP sits in his darkened "office" sipping gin and mumbling about detractors
