Was thinking about this and I find it ironic that he likes Bojack. Ralph probably relates to him because A) they are both alcoholic deadbeat has-beens in their respective areas (Bojack in Hollywood, Ralph in “journalism,” IBS, and streaming) and B) they both have daddy issues.
8 hours 55 minutes in he was still 50 cents short, despite sending himself a few fake donations along the way as he always does. Shortly after this screenshot another dubious donation came in to let him hit da goal for the 300 streak. He kept streaming for another hour because he still needed some real donations to pay the bills. I just skipped through, but it looks as if he's sucking Nick's dick for the whole 10 hours. And although he ended up with sore lips, it just wasn't like the old days anymore.
I tapped out pretty early, before he even started playing the debate, but at one point Ralph said something like he was laughing so hard that his maid may have heard it. This could mean he’s still either paying senorita, or he’s paying a new senorita. At least he isn’t delusional enough to call this one his girlfriend though.
It was pretty much them burying Ralph's dead body and talking about how he did it to himself.
He barely made it! He's at a point where he can't fake to many donos to early, because he's afraid that might stop real donations from coming in. Explains why he sits at ridiculous low amounts several hours into the stream. Also explains why it's again nearly 10 hours long, he has to rattle his tin cup so long to scrape together the bare minimum.
So, what do the fake donations even accomplish? He doesn't make any money, and I assume the service takes some for the transaction, so he actually loses money. Is he this desperate to keep up the delusion that he still has successful paypigs that he's willing to squander what little wealth he has in the process?
He can send through "test" donations on power chat. Wouldn't cost him anything.
Piggy has one of the most inflated egos I've ever seen and it totally destroys him when people make fun of him. I think he didn't fake much when he was on cozy.tv. The groyptards throw huge amounts of money at Fuentes, so it makes sense that his attack pig got his share. So he made $500 and more on a show and could afford traveling to Europe, gambling in Vegas and escorts.
I always appreciate how Ralph somehow always makes at least 40% of da goal in the last hour when he gets tired and seepy seepy. The dude is stuck in a a vicious loop where he can't fake too many donos too early because it'll deincentivize real donos, but has to shoot off the fake dono cannon at the end so he can reach da goal. Imagine your career being this. Needing to make large, very obviously fake, donations so you can continue an arbitrary streak and go to bed.
Is there a lore reason as to why Cleo’s name is spelled Cldo?
