Artifacts of Modernity

13
NOTES

Early 2k’s middle-class American Mom Fashion and the Struggles of Social networking collide here.

While the main point of this shirt is most likely supposed to be the bedazzled Americana-colored FarmVille, we cannot help but conclude that the phrase “Online Farmer” written in a glimmering script font is really what makes this tank top so great.

“Online Farmer”. Again, that’s “online farmer”.

What’s next, Online plumber? Online highway cleanup? Online sweatshop worker?

Online museum?

WELCOME TO THE MUSEUM

Artifacts of Modernity is a internet based "museum" specializing in the preservation of contemporary artifacts deemed worthy of entrance into Western Civilization’s ever evolving canon.
One part virtual time capsule, one part white walls echoing with the sweet siren song of irony, Artifacts of Modernity is the first museum of its kind. Entrance is free, permanent exhibits down the hall and to the right, bathrooms on your left. Enjoy.
- The Curators

"I think we risk becoming the best informed society that has ever died of ignorance." - R. Blades

We work hard to bring you an entirely free Museum (or as an innate fee in your internet bill, if you want to think about it like that), but we can't keep it up without money to pay for this URL every year and to buy ourselves lunch while on the job. So please,
donate.

This is a Tumblr, so "follow" us if you would. And scroll down for a complete list of many other fine social networking sites by which we whore ourselves.

** The Store is ~~almost here~~ never coming
