Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I think at this point in world history we should just stop idolizing people, whoever they are. I love the idea of having animals or cultural symbols in the notes (like canada's leaf, france's eiffel, US's burguers etc)

I don't know... I kinda like the $5 bill with the astronaut on it.

Over a badass wolf? Put the astronaut on a coin nobody uses and move on.

Animal money is best money!

I do think a narwhal bill could be especially majestic
