I’m sorry. Mastodon has spoiled me. I cannot seem to take BlueSky or Xitter or Threads or any of that shit at all seriously. They have nothing but a Big Name attached.

Inferior technology, name recognition, and a toonie will get you a large double double at Tim Hortons, but it don’t pay the freight anymore in social networking.

@mos_8502 Everyday is a learning day on Mastodon. 😀 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toonie

(we have a similar coin in the UK but rather unimaginatively we just call it a 'two pound' coin.)

@Lazarou We call it a "toonie" because of the "loonie" but when it came out, I voted to call it a "doubloonie", which I feel is better.

@Dorkseid I’m still upset that the animal on the back isn’t two male deer.
