Wait, destitute people who have nothing are asking to send money through a smartphone app?? I'd argue the world is weird, not us.


Why is that weird?

Almost nobody carries around small cash or change anymore.

And social services provide the homeless and those in poverty with free smartphones, since they're far more effective at ensuring communications with social services.

So how is the world weird? It all seems quite rational and reasonable to me.
