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.

Eternal Verities


Oh, hello! Welcome back, ModBloggers, on this fine Thursday. Let’s kick things off with our old friend, The Mighty Dannzilla, showing off some healed 12-gauge punched nostrils, a wry smile and that fancy Hyphy hat! There is literally nothing I am less qualified to discuss than Bay Area dance phenomena, so I will simply implore you all to get stupid and mercifully leave it at that.

The week is winding down, folks, and we’re moving in inches now.

    Nice punches.

    Can someone explain why this is a “hyphy hat”?

    Yes I realize I look duderific in this photo, I work at a custom printing shop and the hat was just my coworker and I just fuckin around making goofy stuff. It’s hyphy cause the bright color combinations. My nostrils are indeed at a wee little 12g we decided to punch them so they’d heal happier and faster. The piercer had experience piercing nostrils and other cartilage with needles and stretching and wasn’t happy with how consistently the tissue got angry and had a longer heal time. My schnozz was happy and perfect after about a week and a half.
