Donations have to cover the costs of day operations. They need to be pay their employees, purchase supplies, money towards the buildings and/or vehicles they use, etc. I don't know how much hospitals are paying for each donation unit, so I can't speak on that. Blood donation centers might have a hard time operating on just monetary donations they receive. Paying donars for each donation would open the door to shady and ineligible people wanting some quick cash. There are places that pay for plasma, but I don't have experience with them, so I've never looked into how they operate.

My personal experience. I had to pause donating platelets recently due to a medical issue, but I have donated regularly for the last few years. I've never done it for t-shirts or gifts. I donated because platelets help people. The Red Cross has a feature that will usually tell where your donation went after itvhas been processed. I would always have good day when mine was shipped to a children's hospital. I hope I can start donating again soon.

I planted a couple saplings in the spring, and they finally starting growing leaves a couple weeks ago. I can't wait to see them fully grown with fruit

I subscribe to Netflix, HBO Max, and Youtube premium. I might be cutting Netflix by the end of the year. There are still some things I want to finish watching.

I also have access to my brother's Hulu and Disney, and my mom's Prime video. When those three start cracking down on sharing, I definitely would not subscribe to them.

I've recently started sailing the seas again. I refuse to even sign up for even a free trial for Peacock or anything else.

I work overnights and some shifts are tougher other. We've had plenty of people start off on the overnight shift, and most of them try to switch to another shift as soon possible because they can't handle it. Night shifts can be rough.
