(tom waits voice): what's she building in there
Six cards from a work-in-progress, using medieval marginalia as illustrations. Each has a cost, title, type, speed, attack, guard, magic, listed in this alt text in that order. 2 mousers (cat) 1/1/1/1: When this is played, it deals one damage to a wounded drollery, or one damage to itself. ("Now that we've got you, you'll lead us to the colony. We have ways of making you squeak." – Long Tom) 4 crosshares (hare) 1/2/1/1: Handburn (Alchemy): count your hares in play, then defeat an enemy drollery whose guard is equal to or less than the count. ("For every one of theirs we hit, the boys also hit one of ours. Glad their aim is improving." – Whistletuft Manslayer) 5 wandering mystic (fox) 2/2/1/1: Holy: if attacked, another of your drolleries may take the damage instead. Defeat: discard it to your rival's pile instead. (He was guided by visions to new places. What luck they always conspired to bring him to the wealthy and gullible.) 4 wheat thrashers (human) 2/2/2/1: Protector: if not attacked, this drollery may replace another as an attack target. (Manslayer showed the rebels that flails, used to beat the grain from their husks, could also separate a tyrant from his.) 5 mad dancers (grotesque) 3/3/2/1: When played, you and your rival each draw a card face-down from your decks and place it on the table. Choose one to put in your hand; your rival takes the other. ("Come dance with us, stranger! We saw you from acrost the field, and we are drawn to thy spirit!") 4 wyrmling (dragon) 2/3/1/2: Flight: if attacked by a non-flying drollery, can be returned to your hand. Aether created by this drollery during your Alchemy is not removed in your end phase. ("I took pity on a poor, helpless hatchling, and stayed my hand. And that, dear Ban, is how I lost it." – Captain Wyles)

Yo who up engaging in some recreational drollery
Non-satirical humour can be specifically termed "droll humour" or "recreational drollery".

Gianni must be pissed off he didn't get his name written on Voyager's golden record.

(And following @gdunbarap.bsky.social is a very good idea if you like your football insight served with a healthy dose of drollery)

When you lose your head and choose violence
A medieval manuscript drollery of something with a dragon's lower half (I'm guessing here) with dark blue body and green legs. Instead of other limbs or a head, it culminates in a many-fingered human hand carrying a very large axe. (From a Book of Hours (Use of Liège), Belgium, c1310, Walters Art Museum)

I'm rereading the first Palliser novel, Can You Forgive Her? Such a delight. I'd forgotten how much I like AnthonyTrollope, his drollery.

My unmatched perspicacity is something quite incredible
My tweets are quite extraordinary and mostly unintelligible
Indefatigability, coupled with my vanity
Make me the very model of a toxic male celebrity

A Victorian take on Medieval architectural whimsy, one of several carved stone brackets on the facade of the #Shrewsbury passenger station in #Shropshire, England. The anti-pigeons wiry spikes add incidental visual drollery.

Guys, my armor of drollery isn't really protecting my heart anymore. Anyone have any ideas what to do about this?

Today we hosted a drop-in workshop called FUN WITH MANUSCRIPTS, we had templates for buttons and coloring pages, we listened to holiday music and had a great time! Drollery is based on our 13th c. Bible (Ms. Codex 724). Blue Beet badge colored in by our friend Gabby!
Photo of a board game set up on a table. The game is called DROLLERY and is illustrated with weird little guys from marginalia. two hands holding a button, in the center of a button is a blue beet. The background of the button is yellow, orange close to the beet. It kind of looks like the beet has a halo. Coloring pages and little round pieces of paper, all with manuscript guys printed on them in outlines. Photo of the room with DROLLERY set up close to the camera, several pages printed from manuscripts, our assistant knitting at the table. A TV with a video of a fireplace is in the background.

If you search for @robreiner.bsky.social, under "latest" you will find a bunch of maga jerks replying to him with witty drollery like "fag," in case you are looking to add to your list. I just blocked a bunch.
