Is RLUSD and $XRP not the same thing?

No, but they are complementary cryptocurrencies created by Ripple.

RLUSD (Ripple USD) is a stablecoin pegged to the value of the US dollar at a 1:1 ratio. It is backed by reserves of USD and short-term government securities. Its purpose is to provide price stability for payments and transfers.

XRP is the native cryptocurrency of the XRP Ledger and is designed to serve as a bridge currency to facilitate fast and inexpensive cross-border transactions between different fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies. Its value fluctuates based on market demand and supply, and it is not pegged to any specific fiat currency.

RLUSD functions as "digital money" with stable value, while XRP is the tool that makes the movement of value between different currencies or financial systems efficient. Both operate on the XRP Ledger, and the adoption of RLUSD is designed to increase the utility and demand of the XRP network.
