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.

Have I mentioned my vacation to Belarus?

Assuming I haven’t been conned, this tattoo was done about eight years ago at Y Lisici in Minsk, Belarus. Note to readers: While I am very happy to accept modest photos and expect no more, it is true that the less clothes you have on when you take the picture, the more likely you are to appear on ModBlog! I don’t know if that’s something I should be ashamed of or not, but I’m trying to omit “shame” as an emotion I am capable of feeling.

Oh, and have I mentioned that ModBlog is often NSFW? Well, if you hadn’t figured that out already, I suspect you wouldn’t be reading this site anyway.

    NSFW?

    No visible nipple and no crack. It should be safe for most magazine ads.

    “not safe for work” as in for viewing while you’re at work.

    Yup, you have to remove all of your clothing to show off a shoulder tattoo. Very nice.

    I bet my fat naked ass would never make ModBlog.

    Hey fraisinette, don’t be so sure! There are many of us around who like (or who are) plus sized pinups! Shannon does not strike me as the sort of person who would snub a person because of her/his weight!

    And yet I read ModBlog at work all the time. I use Bloglines, and I don’t click through unless there’s something really cool, but I do read it at work. And this is the workplace where I have already been busted for porn on the computer – except that it was ME in the porn, which was even more fun when my boss called me in. Ha!
