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.

Is that a rib in your septum?

Or are you just happy to see me? Karlin sends in this photo from Merida, Mexico (piercing done at Nomadas as far as I know)… I was wondering… Is this the first time I’ve posted human jewelry? Part of me thinks this is actually the second time I’ve posted this exact picture, ha.

Damn amnesia!
