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
and these aren't even the new notes. look how pretty they are
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
@Nine @lynnesbian also a reminder that the plastic £5 and £10 are made of beef
@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)
