Well, I'm pretty sure cash app recently expanded to the UK and besides it's not the only online payment out there if they take an American Visa card then they will likely take cash app

Nor would humans if they didn't have to stick to schedules dictated by society.

I hope they will soon have means of utilising digital currencies but majority of them where I live currently don’t so at the moment it is bad for them. It will be potentially beneficial to them when they’re able to utilise it more but where I live it’s currently not the case. I hope it becomes the case of course.

Wow that’s actually very useful, I didn’t know that. I’m not sure if shops in the UK accept Cash App Pay as I’ve never seen it and can’t find anything about it online, but definitely very useful to the homeless population in the USA and hopefully something that gets adopted more here.

Mostly because most cats never fly in a jet, so they never really get the chance.

You say that like you've never seen a cat grumpy because he had the zoomies at 2PM instead of 2AM like he's supposed to.

Times are changing, my friend. I work in a city with a very large homeless population (Google Campbell River, B.C. + homeless, if you wish). They were all given cell phones by the city. This may not be true where you live, but it's 2023, homeless people will soon have means of accepting and using digital currencies if they can't already.

Hot butter melts and puddles so you don’t end up with the nice pad of spreadable butter on your bagel or toast …..

Wow, that's an interesting twist on the classic saying! It almost makes me want to try it out for myself. Who knows, maybe I'll find a new culinary delight in the process!
