A park I have visited a few times has 100s of acres of forests and many miles of trails that are designed and maintained very well. It's also a rare park I've seen many people use, and quite heavily.
Despite the heavy foot traffic, I've rarely seen anyone put a dollar into the donation box. 😟
If only they moved that donation box to a place of worship. 🤔

If you ever wondered: if you have to pay #tax for foreign donation in #Poland, you're going to have to run to the tax office with paper form — because making "polish tax identifier" field optional in the online form would cost a fortune.
"""
[…] Enabling taxpayers to file the SD-Z2 form electronically requires developing and implementing a new template in the IT systems. In turn, this requires changing the inheritance and donation regulations first, and prior earmarking of substantial funding for modification of IT systems (the amount being similar whether a single or many changes are implemented).
For these reasons, the demand made on this undeniably important matter, but requiring incurring disproportionately high expenditures at the moment, compared to the number of cases to which it applies, will be taken into consideration at the next amendment of inheritance and donation tax regulations, which will also include other changes to the form.

In most of the world, it is tough to explain free software and open source. It is like that Ursula K. Le Guin quote, about the inescapable power of capitalism, and how difficult to imagine an alternative to this power, in its time as difficult as it was to imagine an escape from the divine right of kings. But in Gaza, before the Al Aqsa Flood, the expression of this power was different. Capitalism was present, but it was not all powerful. It was easy to imagine an alternative, because Gaza, a self-contained enclosure, was forcefully cut off from the market forces of rest of the world. In Gaza, to teach people about free software and open source hardware, was to teach them how to survive. Because by accessing open repositories, even people with no capital could build a tech scene, could develop new technology. This was Mohammed Abu Matar's life work, which he has had to interrupt now as the boundaries restricting the entrance of the outside forces into Gaza have been pierced. I want everyone who has ever contributed to open source hardware and software, to consider reaching out with a donation to Mohammed and to Gaza, to let them know they are not alone: https://www.gofundme.com/f/protect-an-open-source-engineer-and-his-family

Many years ago I made a one-off donation to a charity on behalf of a work fundraiser. I asked not to be added to their mailing list, but they ignored me and started sending me regular give-us-money letters. I started tracking what they were spending in postage, and after about ten years they had spent more than my entire donation trying to fundraise from me.
I’m sure this is a metaphor for something, but I can’t think what.
Thank you very much to the person who made a donation to #Diaphora, it's highly appreciated!

Just a legal note for the donations, you have to be either a resident of Ireland or an Irish citizen to donate.
I appreciate the support from abroad, but it's a political donation restriction.

To all fellow mstdn.ca members, this is an important message from @… . I donated $50 last November because I enjoy the community on Mastadon, and mstdn.ca has been a good home over the past two years. I'll commit to $5 per month and will set that up today. If you are happy with our community, please consider a one-time donation or a monthly commitment of $5.00 or whatever you're comfortable with.

I have just made a personal donation to #UNWRA.

I actually made it TWICE as far, level wise, than my goal yesterday in Fallout 76!
I wanted to get to level 25 from level 22, but I actually made it to level 27 thanks to the awesome community popping open lunchboxes during the event! I had 100% XP bonus for about 2 whole hours!
Also dug about 125 treasures in hopes of getting some Power Armor plans. No luck so far unfortunately, but I have PLENTY leftover plans to sell and will only get more as time goes on, thanks to the generous Treasure Map donation from @…! Thanks again, friend!
I do have a question though for anyone willing to answer.
I own one of those big mansion prefabs and use that as one of my CAMPs and put the new vault doors on it and locked them with level 3. However, yesterday after one of the events, I came home to someone running through the building and I noticed he had a "Wanted: 5 Caps" above his head. I assume that means he was able to steal something.
I thought everything was player owned and I don't have much you can just "grab" except for corn and blueberries. Could it be that he was simply hungry and I'm freaking out for nothing? Or can he steal from my ammo box and stuff?😬😩 I'm so confused!
