A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    Damn! Either the site didn’t load properly or you were quick with the comments. I’m sure the timestamp will confirm which 🙂

    Yeah, I was going to say the same. Hannibal Lector reference, nice placement.

    It was a load issue… The comment system is being pummelled so hard that it reports zero comments 50% of the time… Yet another thing I desperately need to rewrite… I need another employee for BME, too bad I can’t aford to pay anyone else right now!

    Looks like the moth on the cover of my copy of Silence of the Lambs, if my memory serves me correctly.

    If I had the skills, and didn’t live in Australia (that whole distance thing gets in the way), I would tottally work as a volunteer at BME…in the meantime I’m certainly not complaining. I’m just glad/appreciative a site like this exists…

    That. Is. Fsking. Hardcore.

    If my codemonkeying weren’t on a par with semi-aquatic, single-celled organisms, I’d volunteer some keyboard time, dude…Alas, I suck at code…

    I can make pretty pictures though…And be obnoxious.

    I know there’s a pinup model who’s got a similar moth tattoo on her neck – it’s more green though. Anybody remember her name?
