Monday Morning Commute: Revolt/You Shun
The Archetype looked into the eyes of Revolution. “How come you look so sad? Why, just a moment ago you were buzzing with enthusiasm.”
Revolution blinked. Unfeelingly. “Yes, I had been…but why wouldn’t I? I’d just bathed in the winds of change and dined on paradigm shifts.”
“And now?”
“Well, I’ve figured it out. We’re not enemies, after all. You are…you are me. From the future. Given time to settle in, you are what I become.”
The Archetype chuckled. “You’ve got it right, my boy! But don’t worry, you won’t be bored and sad forever. Someday, when you’re me and I’m you, you’re going to have to fight for your life! Such is the way.”

Let’s take a peek at what I’m up to this week.
Wait, Maybe Joseph Gordon-Levitt Isn’t Alberto Falcone.
The amazing adventure that is guessing Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s role in The Dark Knight Rises continues. Back in the day, he was totally the Riddler. Then he was Robin. Then he was Alberto Falcone. Supposedly. Then he was confirmed as Alberto Falcone by Variety. Now he’s unconfirmed.
Of course.

Ken Levine. I wank off to your philosophical wanderings and universal construction in BioShock. You are a good man. Full of win. Now you’re further full of win, and uh, a gooder man with your latest musings on PS Move.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt Is Officially Alberto Falcon in ‘The Dark Knight Rises.’
JGL. First rumored, and now signed to The Dark Knight Rises. JGL. First rumored, and now confirmed to be playing Alberto Falcone in The Dark Knight Rises.

Scientists Observe Two Stars Joining Together. All Naughty Like.
From what I understand, scientists and astronomy wizards have long since speculated that stars could spin so closely to one another that they may actually touch. Shit has popped off lately though, as scientists have been able to directly observe the merger of two closely orbiting stars.
Kinect Hack Turns You Into Rampaging Hulk; Sensor Smash Or Something.
Some good lads have gone and built a Kinect ‘Hulk’ mod. They did so by hooking up “Flash running w/ Molehill (hardware acceleration) up to the Kinect and Box2d.” That means absolutely nothing to me though. I just know it tints then green and lets them smash generated buildings and shit.
