american money: cotton paper. dissolves in water. pathenic
australian money: bright and colourful. has a see-through bit. tactile bumps for the vision impaired. waterproof plastic material

who wins? nobody. everybody loses under capitalism

i suppose it's kinda like how venemous animals use bright colours to warn people of their danger

it feels weird to talk about australia without getting roasted to hell and back so here's a picture of all the coins we have. the $1 is bigger than the $2, and look at that gargantuan 50 cent piece

yes they all have that disgusting picture of the queen on them

@lynnesbian okay so I thought uk coins were weird but our 50p is basically the same as their 50p. Granted I think it has less sides. But at least our £2 is bigger than our £1 (50p is still bigger than £1 tho and almost if not the same size as the £2)

@lynnesbian we also only JUST started getting plastic money like... VERY LATE 2017

@lynnesbian (and we still have to replace the £20 note, AND eventually the £50 but apparently it's gonna be fucking Thatcher on the £20 or some shite, holy fuck I hate this country sometimes)

@Nine @lynnesbian also a reminder that the plastic £5 and £10 are made of beef

@Nine @lynnesbian ur 50p is a Relueaux heptagon, dont talk shit about our dodecagon

@audrey @lynnesbian i can't talk shit about your dodecagon we turned our pound coins into dodecagons it's fuckin' wild now the £1 is like the little sister to the £2 but instead of being all round like the £2 it's just liek "lol fuck that i can be your ANGLE or UR DEVEL by which i mean check out these angles fucko" and the £2 is like "i mean okay it's not like that's a big deal, you do you, I accept you" and the £1 looks all kinda deflated because it expected a big reaction but it didn't get one

@audrey @lynnesbian royalmint.com/discover/uk-coin look at this punk

like it doesn't even COMMIT to angles it's like the SUGGESTION of angles by that picture and it still looks round as fuck? I promise you those really are angles though, but even if you hold one just looking at it you'll be like "the fuck is this pseudoround shit"
