Who speaks for dead 19th century authors?  Diani, Devine, and Steampunks do!  In a horrible twist of events, the publishing company that currently has the rights to publish Huck Finn, decided to replace the N-word with “Slave”.  This is Literary Graffiti, and to change a word that was placed there by purpose to make people ask questions goes against the spirit of History.

Mark Twain was a humorist however, and so Diani & Devine think that if he were alive today, he would fight this butchering of his story with comedy.  So using the logic of the book butchers they shall replace the offensive word “slave” with a more pleasing one, “ROBOT”.   (Click more to get details to the launch party)

Just Glue Some Gears On It (And Call It Steampunk)

This handsome fellow is a 3 inch vinyl replica of the man who literally invented the Modern Age, second only to Charles Babbage and but one step above Isambard Kingdom Brunel in my book.  Nikola Tesla deserves a place of honor in a Steampunk Home.  He runs $6.45 which isn’t a bad price.

As for a brief review on him.  I only have two complaints.  1. Why is he only 3 inches tall?  I would love for this to be about 6 to 7 inches tall.   2. Why is this not a lamp!  His glowing ball of Florescent light should be spewing it’s Alternating Current of Justice to illuminate my desk!
