Latest Tattoo, Piercing, and Body Modification News
- Suspended, Not Silencedby JonathonThere’s something undeniably powerful about watching someone working through the stages of suspension. We all build up ideas about ourselves—what we’re allowed to feel, how much we’re allowed to express, when it’s okay to break. For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced
- A Nightbird’s Passageby JonathonSome stories take their time, unfolding over decades, through life’s long detours and diversions. But dreams never rest until they’re fully realized. Even after 15 years, Robb knew there was still a suspension experience waiting for him. Something left unfinished, something essential. At the Ontario… Read more: A Nightbird’s Passage
- What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soulby JonathonFirst suspensions are rarely just about the body—they’re a meeting point between the physical and the deeply personal. Stepping into this experience isn’t simply about trying something new, but about stepping outside yourself to a version you had always sensed was waiting. I’ve had a… Read more: What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soul
- Skin and Strings: The Art of Human Puppetryby JonathonOne of the most powerful things about being at a convention like OSC is the sheer concentration of experience, creativity, and capability in one place. When you’re surrounded by people who not only understand the technical complexities of suspension but are excited by the challenge… Read more: Skin and Strings: The Art of Human Puppetry
- Twelve Points to the Skyby JonathonThere’s a particular kind of magic that happens at your first big suspension gathering when you arrive with nerves, an open heart, and the quiet hope of flight. Guided by the encouragement of mentor Lynn Loheide and driven by the quiet confidence of belonging, Alex… Read more: Twelve Points to the Sky
- Ontario SusCon 2025by JonathonIn March 2025, BME attended the Ontario Suspension Convention in Hamilton, hosted by the Kevin Donaghy and the Ontario Suspension Collective. We had the pleasure to take part and help document the event, but also run a booth to sell a bunch of old (but… Read more: Ontario SusCon 2025

i think the old adage of, ‘the difference between modified people and the mot-modified is that modified people don’t care if you are modified or not’ applies here.
there does seem to be a clear distinction here between those that are and those that are not, though. there are some not very objective viewpoints are being expressed.
it is also very easy, and very sad to sit behind a computer screen blathering away into the night, flaming people that don’t fit into your paradigm of what is ‘normal’.
those of you who have responded with typical ‘herd’ mentality ‘dialogues’ should think about why you think you are coming across so hilariously, in your eyes.
think about how intelligent you look posting such tragic, badly spelled, venom-filled ‘critiques’. maybe take a second to think about ways of changing YOURSELF so that the image you present to the world is actually the person you really are. rather than the delusion you seem to be under that somehow you are ‘cool’ or any of the other not-quite-developed emotions you are expressing with such contempt.
there seems to be a general consensus with the ‘herd’ posters that somehow this guy is trying to ‘impress’ people or whatever. that little projection on your part says more about you and how you conduct your life, than him. how sad.
on the whole, the point of body modification is to change YOURSELF. and on the whole, that is all that counts. it doesn’t matter what other people think or say. it reaches a point where one opts out of the herd and worrying about what other peoples feelings are becomes anathema to the primary purpose of modifying oneself to fit how one really is on the inside.
certain posters above seem to be bent on trying to change OTHER people by inflicting their selfish opinions on them. it is very easy to point the finger at other people, because whilst that is being done, you are not looking at your own flaws, especially the one that makes you so arrogant to assume that you are somehow better.
your postings do not concur with the deluded mindset you appear to be locked into that somehow your opinion is valid, well thought out or intelligent.
BME/IAM is full of people as different as there are members. there are some pages that are filled with things that i would not personally do – yet. there are also lots of pages which have given me no end of ideas, which i have followed through because they inspired me, which i thought i would never do. but i needed to look at WHY i at one point didn’t want to do them. this leads to evolution of self and as such, becomes reflected in my choices of how i want to modify myself.
interestingly, apart from the odd lunatic who delights in ‘pointing the finger’ at how ‘fucked up’ people are, BME/IAM is a pretty peaceful place regarding other peoples mods.
on the whole, my experience has been that IAM’ers are highly intelligent people. respect for others views, opinions and lifestyles is one of the main factors for the atmosphere of mutual and collective collaboration, on the whole. this keeps what is ultimately a benevolant anarchy ticking over.
people like yourselves, who cannot read, write or think out of sheer ignorance and stupidity are not welcome and are usually rooted out and booted. you normally show your true colour pretty early on, as you don’t have the intelligence, or the spine to keep your mouths shut.
Anton LaVey was absolutely spot on when he said that the most problematic war in this world was not between races, colours of creeds, but a war between intelligence and stupidity.
next time you feel you have to express such a knee jerk reaction, make sure your face is just above your leg.

It appears someone left the gate open at the asshole petting zoo again….
And thanks to all those other prats who link to our illustrious MODBLOG which wipes the ground with most of your blogs with one arm tied behind its digital back. Take that!!

What a complete jack ass. Not only does he look like the worlds biggest douche bag, but how is he going to get anyone other than a big fattie to respect him. Complete moran. Your all fucking morons for admiring this.

Hmm. Well, I’m sorry to intrude on your body modification page. I’m not going to be a hater, since I too have body art on a few choice places of my epiderm. But, I gotta say for the money that musta’ cost it wasn’t the best idea in the world. I can understand the…uh…statement, or attempt at one at least. I aggree that most of the votes against this piercing are pretty hatefull, and this boy doesn’t deserve any of the animosity, but I also aggree that its not a very bright idea. To stoop for a moment: When I was 12 I would’ve been extremely jealous and in awe. Now, just dumbfounded.

Goodlord does being faceless in a croud ever give people the gusto to say what they’d only dare think were this the real world. Lucky for everyone we don’t hear what people think of us when we walk down the street or I’m sure we’d all be much nicer people on-line. I’m glad I don’t leave the house much! To each their own guys, come on. He’s a fellow person, find your common ground and work with it, anything else is just being futile, why waiste your life and precious time being crule?

What a wanker. It’s like getting fake pirhana teeth dentures or having collagen injections around your dick–it’s pathetic because it implies that you’re tougher/bigger/more interesting than you really are. At the end of the day, he’s just some little man with holes in his hand from his Halloween costume. Sad, and disgusting.

Is it the knuckle piercings themselves that are temporary, or only the spikes? They look awesome, but of course I’d worry whether it was endangering piercings he’d otherwise planned to keep. Either way, I’m betting he knew the risks and what he was getting into, so enjoy Freakboy.

HAHAHAHA!!! I was wondering how long it would take before someone got upset w/me and went crying to their momma. 3 hours, I’m a little disappointed. Must be loosing my touch. You want I should send you some chocolate chip cookies? Make you feel warm and loved and accepted?
Hmm. Don’t you think this guy would look really funny walking around all day w/his claw/hand hanging out of his nose? I’m imagining him in the check-out at a grocery store. Be kinda hard to get to your wallet…
I am TOTALLY gonna visit this site more often. You guys could potentially provide me w/hours of entertainment! HAHAHAHA!!!!

id love to rip those out and watch you cry

That’s the coolest fucking shit I’ve seen yet. Forget about what everyone else says. Life is short. Enjoy it while you can. If it’s ever an inconvienience, or you feel like you don’t want them anymore (especially since they’re temporary), unlike a tattoo, you can remove them.
To everyone else, go worry about the war, the poor, or the children dying every day to hunger.
If you don’t have any idea still, I’ve got some bills you can worry over for me.

ok it was wrong of me to single Roxor out, every single one that doesnt like it can shut it
Yeah! If you don’t agree with everything I say, then don’t you dare have an opinion!! Why can’t you all understand that I’m different…like everyone else?? LMAO!! WTF? It looks stupid. If you don’t like the fact that other people may not agree with your idea of cool, then DON’T FUCKING POST IT WHERE THE WHOLE WORLD CAN SEE IT! If you didn’t want all this attention (good and bad), you wouldn’t be hanging bits of metal from your body. If you’re going to be “different” then you better grow some thicker skin.
