> Everything in math is made-up.
Strongly disagree, unless you consider, say, gravitation to be "made up".
The universe obeyed the laws of mathematics even before observers existed. We deduced mathematics by observing the universe.
For example, the number two is "the class of all sets of cardinality two", and it existed before humans, and had strong effects on the world.

God, I'm so sorry to hear this.
I lost my job on Tuesday, but I sent you €25 anyway.
And FUCK GoFundMe. Sorry for the profanity, it's just enraging.

I am terribly, terribly sorry - I just lost my job yesterday. I'm an old guy in a technical field - I am wondering if I'll ever work again.
I'm going to make one more small set of gifts around the end of the year, but after that I'm going to have to stop until I get a job again.

I'm really - really! - sorry, but it's because there aren't very many of us, and I for one am overwhelmed.
I spent two or three times as much on Gaza last week as we did on food.
Please ask again later!

I am so sorry but I am overwhelmed. I spent over €400 on Gazans last week; every day I get a dozen new requests.
Ask again later. I am really, really sorry.

People are responsible for their own actions. They voted for Brexit or Brexiteers in 2016, 2017, and 2019.
And honestly, it doesn't really matter who's responsible for the fact that the UK is a danger to Europe. It simply is, and we shouldn't allow them to join.
We have troubles enough without another cancer in our midst.
The UK had a unique special status. They threw it away, and told a series of unbelievably offensive lies about us. [Copulate] them.

The needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many! ;-)
Honestly, the last decade has been a disaster for "my countries". Both my birth country and the country I'd lived in for decades (the USA) went full Fascist idiot. Even the Netherlands aren't doing great, because it's impossible to find a place to live there unless you're rich, and almost all my young friends have been forced to leave.

Well, that's very cool, to be honest.
I think you're real: I checked you out a bit. But most people don't have time for that. It will make it easy for them.
I wish I could send you money now. I've already sent more money to Gaza this week than we have spent on food for ourselves, and each day I open this site to a dozen requests.
😕
But after all that, I sent you money anyway. :-)
Please get the sticker though.

I am still enraged.
But Brexit did in fact push me into leaving the US while my UK passport was still good, and now I'm living in France as a Dutch citizen, so it was a big personal win for me.

I was born a Briton, but now I'm European again.
After the endless malicious and stupid lies told about the EU by Britain, and the response of the UK voter being to re- and re- elect those liars, and after the betrayal of the EU by Hungary, I think a lot of EU citizens would not be interested in allowing the UK to rejoin except under very stringent conditions forcing the UK to be honest that the UK would never accept.
Like the USA, Britain's word is worthless now.

I shared it. I'll have more money to send next week.
PLEASE get a Gaza verified sticker on your profile! It makes it much easier for us to be sure our money goes to real Gazan people and not evil thieves who might be from anywhere...

Hello!
I sent you some money, sorry for the delay. I'm getting overwhelmed by requests!
I really am hoping for all the best for you and everyone. Please know that there are many people caring about you and sending money when they can and love and hope when they can't.

Hah, I just sent you some € as you were writing this. Good luck!

Hello! I sent you a little money. I wish it were more but my inbox is full of dozens of requests and I'm spending more on this than any other thing, even food for ourselves.
Very very best wishes.

I blame the cannabis for this horrifying dysfunction. 😁

Hey, Aaron. I sent you a week's worth of dog food 🙂 and a bit more.
I wish I could send more but I am sending out huge amounts these days, mostly to desperate people in Gaza.
Very best wishes.

Sent you something!
Money's pretty shoddy stuff, but it's the best I can do, and it is useful.
Have a hug from France, and I really hope things look up for you and for everyone in Gaza.

Oh, sorry, the comment about money being shoddy wasn't anything to do with the requests, but my general attitude toward money and capitalism.
I'm worried I won't be able to keep this up at this level, myself, but I'm keeping going at some level!!

I have never used a streaming service!
Well, occasionally I send people YouTube links.
I buy all my music, usually from Bandcamp. It makes a big difference to the musicians, particularly when I buy their whole catalog; I get thank-you notes all the time.
If I stream 300 times, that's about one dollar to the artist. If I buy an album, that's about ten dollars.

Oh, please, please, don't apologize, it just breaks my heart.
I'd be doing the same thing.
I wish I had more to give.
