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
@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 https://www.royalmint.com/discover/uk-coins/new-one-pound-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"

The New One Pound Coin |The Royal Mint

The final specification of the coin and method of introduction were decided after a ten-week public consultation which looked at the physical and material characteristics of the coin, as well as the parameters for the transition.

here's the fronts of them. they are not exclusively queen pictures
many vending machines don't even take 50 cent coins because they're so silly
@lynnesbian it _is_ silly, because they could've been designed as a solid of constant width but it wasn't
i have a US banknote somewhere
mrs. worldwide
i was talking to someone in america and i thought it was weird that they thought sydney was in queensland
then i realised i didn't know where washington was on the map
@lynnesbian consider: australia has seven states. America has 50

@audrey @lynnesbian the uK has three states

misty
rainy
and cloudy.

oh you mean like ... nation states?. My bad.

@lynnesbian i'm not even quite sure which canadian province is which sometimes and i live here
@lynnesbian we've got two of them, so you've got a better than usual chance of pointing to a Washington
@lynnesbian fake. America does not exist
@lynnesbian careful, if a criminal gets hold of that bill serial number, they can use it to go to https://www.wheresgeorge.com to find out where it's been

@lynnesbian this looks suspiciously like a uni dorm room
@nuttgodd nah my room is just a mess
@lynnesbian coins that don't have the Queen on? What is this? America?
@loki they do have the queen on them, just on the flipside, not the front

@lynnesbian why do they all have the same picture on them

even America put different pictures on each coin

sometimes we even get cool coins where they put each state on a quarter or each president on a dollar coin

@BestGirlGrace htey have different pictures on the flipside
@lynnesbian its a dodecagon you silly bunny
@audrey i can't count that high audrey
@lynnesbian suck my do-dick-agon
@lynnesbian but like, in a nice way. I dont wabt to be mean, I just wanted to say do-dick-agon
@lynnesbian
at least being roasted to hell for talking about australia beats being roasted to hell by australian weather >.<

So the Australian money is the clear and present danger?
@violet money itself is the danger 😎
@lynnesbian now thats some money I could have framed.

Me: I can SEE that I'm going to regret this tomorrow.
Cashier: Please give me the money and go, sir.
