>A fundraiser created in the days following Eric Dane’s death has been paused mid-momentum, with GoFundMe stepping in to review how the campaign was set up—and where the money is actually going. The campaign, titled “In Honor of Eric Dane,” quickly gained traction online, pulling in more than $275,000 from roughly 1,900 donors. The stated goal is to support Dane’s teenage daughters, Billie and Georgia, after the actor’s death at 53.>But according to The San Francisco Chronicle, as donations climbed, so did questions about who launched the effort and whether it’s officially connected to his family. GoFundMe confirmed that the funds are currently being held while its Trust and Safety team looks into the situation. “Our Trust and Safety team is still looking into this GoFundMe and has reached out to the organizer to gather additional information,” a spokesperson said. “All funds are being safely held by our payment processors during this review process.”>At the center of the uncertainty is the campaign’s origin. The page lists the organizer as “Friends of the Dane Family,” but doesn’t specify individuals or provide verification that the fundraiser is endorsed by Dane’s immediate family. That lack of clarity has become a key issue, especially given the size and speed of the donations. One person, Mike McGuiness, claimed on Instagram that he helped initiate the fundraiser, writing that Dane’s illness had taken a toll on his finances. “Covid and ALS did a number on his work life and he sadly couldn’t leave his family with the resources he had hoped,” he shared.https://www.complex.com/pop-culture/a/bernadette-giacomazzo/gofundme-eric-dane-daughters-hold

I already have 50 bucks to the Dawson creek guy
>>218196316Famous Hollywood actors families putting up GoFundMes everytime they die is gonna become a thing now isn’t it? Lmao what fucking scumbags these people are fucking multimillionaires begging us commoner non-famous poors for money, fuck off
>>218198365I all fairness, Eric Dane and James Van Der Beek were essentially one hit wonders, I doubt they were rolling in cash, especially considering medical expenses.
>>218197591then no

>>218196316before i respond, is the one on the right 18?
I think I found the reason Fake Indians (dot) like Israel.
>>218196406she looks like emilie de ravin
>>218198389>medical expenses they ought to have insurance with a SAG card, right?
>>218198861
>>218198861Unironically correct
>>218198861>>218199707The biological age of men and women at first childbirth for all of history was 31 for the man and 23 for the woman, according to a study on the mutation rates of DNA strands in human beings over the past 150k years. The standard has NEVER been below 18.https://news.iu.edu/live/news/28109-study-reveals-average-age-at-conception-for-men
>>218199749go back
>>218196316>About a week prior to his death, he was bedridden, almost completely unable to speak and struggling to swallow, according to former co-worker and friend Patrick Dempsey, who had visited him.Friend of the Year material right here.
>>218198389>>218199658Insurance never covers much when it comes to serious ongoing medical issues like cancer. These articles always talk about how heartwarming it is that donations are coming in (or in this case, asking where the money is going), but the real question should be why the fuck the healthcare system in the US requires literal television stars to crowdfund finances after being terminally sick? If they get wiped out after a terminal illness, how the fuck is the average Joe supposed to have a snowball’s chance in hell?Shit’s fucked up.
>>218200783lol, love that detail. >“Things were really bad” says the guy who honestly had no idea but had heard stuff on Instagram.
>>218199749>“Through our research on modern humans, we noticed that we could predict the age at which people had children from the types of DNA mutations they left to their children,” said study co-author Matthew Hahn, Distinguished Professor of biology in the College of Arts and Sciences and of computer science in the Luddy School of Informatics, Computing and Engineering at IU Bloomington. “We then applied this model to our human ancestors to determine what age our ancestors procreated.”Literal pseud shit lol
>>218199749What the claim incorrectly assumes1. This is not the age of first childbirthThe study estimates average ages at conception across all births — not specifically the first child.Real human reproductive histories include:Some pregnant in teensSome having multiple children into their 30sOthers only one child late in lifeThe genetic model doesn’t separate first child age from mean age of all conceptions in a lifetime. �RedditSo the claim “standard has never been below 18” is unsupported by this data.2. Average ≠ earliest biological capabilityBiologically, humans reach fertility well before 18:Female reproductive capability starts in puberty (~age 12–13). �RedditFirst childbirth in many pre-modern groups often occurred in the late teens or early twenties. Historical and ethnographic evidence suggests first pregnancies around ~18–20 or even earlier in some populations. �RedditTherefore, it’s inaccurate to claim there’s a biological minimum of 18 at first childbirth.3. The study is an estimate, not a direct historical recordThe ages were calculated by modeling DNA mutation rates — not by dating skeletal remains with known birth ages. This method gives an average across many generations rather than precise ages for individuals or specific populations. �IFLScienceThat means there’s uncertainty and variation in the results.
>>218201216So what’s true? Over long evolutionary history, the average age at childbirth was around mid-to-late twenties. � Men tended to be older than women at conception on average. � The age gap has narrowed recently due to women having children at older ages in many societies. �ScienceDailyScienceDailyScienceDaily What’s not supportedx There’s no scientific evidence that the average or typical age at first childbirth for all of history was exactly 23 for women and 31 for men.x There’s no biological “standard” minimum age such as 18 that applies universally across human history.x The study does not show that ancient first births never occurred before late adolescence.The Indiana University study estimates that across all births in human evolutionary history, ages at conception cluster around the mid-20s, with men older than women on average. It does not prove a universal biological rule about the age of first childbirth, and it does not establish 18 as a historical minimum in any meaningful biological sense
>>218198389maybe they should have worked more. if dawson had $3million at aged 24 he should have been able to make that pay for his life.
I need assurances that neither daughter is a mudshark first.
