Maybe that's an E, but the rest isn't text, it's sheet music. It's a shame it's cropped because, although I've seen a bunch of example of illuminated texts, I've not often seen such embellishments on sheet music.

The flag is waving the wrong way if this was even a possibility. Nice touch for the absurdity.

Maybe the wind is blowing faster than the duck is flying

The duck might not even be flapping; just being used as a sail.

Look, they didn't have television, movies, or games back then!

They had theatre and games. Why do you think they did not?

Have you ever been so bored you paid people to enact a play, spur-of-the-moment?

SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 82d

Bored enough, yes, but I didn't have the money. Later rich enough, but I wasn't ever that bored.
