Palasciano said he is not a racist. He said he’s suspicious of the increase in Indians in the nearly 250,000-person city and blames H-1B visa fraud, although he has offered no proof during recent city council meetings.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•I wonder if anyone needs help with anythingEnglish
6·7 days agoThere 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.

29·7 days agoWe actually have quite a few troubadour “songbooks” from the late middle ages, indicating that it was a useful resource for minstrels of the time.
If we’re getting into the Renaissance period, a professional musician would almost certainly be able to read; we have printed music manuals from the period for all kinds of instruments; for example, Arbeau’s Orchésographie is a primer on courtly dance music that we still read today.

2·8 days agoGreg is a weak man who needs to perform masculinity so that the rubes who he suckers into voting for him every four years will continue to think he’s doing alright for Texans.
He’s a real chode elected by shitbird losers who are afraid of their own shadows.
My dad became a Christian Nationalist, but he loved Jim Croce when I was growing up.
He really liked the song Which Way Are You Going, but true to the song he’s got “one hand on the Bible, one hand on the gun.” It could have been written about him, but he still thinks he’s the pinnacle of righteousness.
