The random over-sharing of one VeroHime: still a gamer, still a foodie, still (mostly) melee DPS.

Guys. That’s a sun. Not a lion. Get a grip.

I may have just lost my grip a bit laughing at this. Yep, it’s a lion!

The ‘American Revolution Revolution‘ is a series of paintings by Shawn Huckins that combines 18th Century American portraiture with 21st Century lexicons, such as mobile phone texting acronyms, Facebook status updates, and Twitter postings. Essentially the main goal of the series is to explore the brief history of the United States comparing the political revolution of when the country was founded in the 1700s versus the technological revolution that’s been happening over the past decade.

Huckins on his project:

The American Revolution was conceived through an exchange of a few well-formed ideas communicated in person and by handwritten letters. Imagine what George & Co. could have done with the Internet.

Or not…

Well-worn are the theories that advancing technology isolates us more, not less, and it is easy to idealize centuries-past life as simpler, more civil, more intelligent and, ironically, more ‘connected.’ The point is, we live in a very different time than our Founding Fathers did, and we would appear to place our priorities in very different places: what entertains our selves versus what serves our society. Clearly a society must be politically free to indulge in the luxury of such introspection. But has the complacency of our political freedom blinded us to the potential our ancestors fought for?

If George could comment today, would he click the ‘like’ button, or post wtf? and then go check his Lady Gaga tweet?

The conjugations of yolo. It had to be done.

let’s get some subjunctives all up in this
yolem - I might only live once
yolet - let him only live once!
yolemus - let us only live once!

This is perhaps the only acceptable form of “yolo” - making fun of it by conjugating it in Latin.
