    It pisses me off so much when I go to the art museum and see a cool piece that the artist RUINED by putting an advertisement in the bottom corner.

    And then the museum has the audacity to put another plaque with an advertisement next to it, too! The nerve on these people.










  • There are a couple parts of the court music book Orchésographie that I think would be particularly interesting for a bard character.

    Court musicians in the late 16th century frequently traveled to where the work was: either following a particular patron or looking to perform where they could. Most of the dances in the book are bransles, a folk dance popular with the “common people,” and formalized when brought to court. As a D&D bard, this would be a cool way to explain why your music is beloved by all, and why they could move in all social circles.

    There’s also a part at the beginning that explains how to play the drum and fife for a marching army: how to improvise a melody or change up the drum pattern while keeping the march going. It seems to imply that the court musicians the book was written for were potentially marching with armies, likely playing music in the camps or stops at night.
