[0:00]Good morning. This is going to be a

[0:02]short video because I'm just waking up

[0:05]and wasn't planning on making a video

[0:07]just yet. It's 7 o'clock in the morning

[0:10]here. Literally just woke up 5 10

[0:12]minutes

[0:14]ago. Last night, somebody sent me $50.

[0:17]It was 10 or 11:00 at night when they

[0:19]did this. I was grateful. I replied to

[0:22]their comment where they told me that

[0:24]they sent me

[0:25]this. Told them I hope they'd stick

[0:27]around. I thought they'd be interesting

[0:29]because their username says they're a

[0:33]nomad. I used that money to book my um

[0:37]campsite for an extra two days. So now

[0:40]I'm here until the 12th. I woke up this

[0:43]morning to this comment from them.

[0:45]They're replying to a video that I

[0:47]recorded before they sent me

[0:51]anything. I haven't made any video since

[0:53]they sent that. I was sleeping.

[0:56]This this comment says a lot. It says

[0:59]that they didn't

[1:02]give with a sense of generosity. They

[1:05]they they gave with a sense of

[1:08]expectation to perform for them. I'm not

[1:11]going to

[1:13]perform. I said I was grateful. I

[1:16]thanked them in a reply to their

[1:18]comment. That should have been

[1:19]enough. I am grateful.

[1:24]But they didn't send that wanting my

[1:26]gratitude. They sent that wanting

[1:28]something else from

[1:29]me. And that is not

[1:34]okay. That's everything I have to say.

[1:38]Going to get up now. I'm going to go

[1:40]into town to shower at the laundry

[1:43]facility cuz it's Monday morning.

[1:46]Um there's going to be some um just a

[1:48]graphic at the end of this to extend the

[1:50]length of this video because for some

[1:52]reason I can't seem to upload normal

[1:54]videos anymore. Um if they're too short,

[1:58]uh YouTube tries to um tries to post

[2:02]them as YouTube shorts and I don't like

[2:04]posting shorts and I've tried several

[2:07]different ways and it just isn't

[2:09]working. So unless the unless the length

[2:11]of the video is a certain length, it

[2:13]just defaults to that. doesn't give you

[2:14]an option to do anything else. I don't

[2:16]know if it's a um I don't know if it's a

[2:20]bug on their part or what or they're

[2:22]just trying to force people into using

[2:24]shorts. Um cuz I literally don't have an

[2:27]option to just post this as a normal

[2:28]video unless it's a certain length. This

[2:30]happened to me last night. My last video

[2:32]that I posted was like

[2:34]this. So, I'm not going to say anything

[2:37]else. I'm just I'm someone attacked my

[2:39]integrity and I want I want to make it

[2:41]very clear that I did nothing wrong.

[2:44]That was totally inappropriate. That

[2:46]comment was

[2:47]inappropriate and I'm sorry they feel

[2:50]that

[2:51]way. They did it. They did a nice thing,

[2:54]a kind act. And I used it for the the

[2:56]very thing that I said I would and I

[2:59]woke up attacked by

[3:03]them. It's just wrong. It's just wrong.

Summary

The speaker wakes up at 7 AM and records an unplanned video to address a situation from the previous night. Someone had sent them $50 around 10-11 PM, which they used to extend their campsite booking until April 12th. They had thanked the donor in a comment reply. Upon waking, they found a comment from the donor that implied expectation of performance in exchange for the donation. The speaker clarifies they will not perform for donors and that their gratitude should have been sufficient. They explain the donation was given with expectation rather than genuine generosity, which they consider inappropriate. The speaker also mentions technical issues with YouTube defaulting short videos to YouTube Shorts format, requiring them to extend video length artificially. They plan to go into town for a shower at the laundry facility.
