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.

    That’s adorable, and it also reminds me of my poor sister who actually did get a fish hook through her lip when she was about eight or nine.

    I use to say that it was a fishing accident once in a while when people would rudely ask me why I would do that to myself in regards to a piercing. Ocasionally there would be someone who would pause for a while before realizing it was sarcasm.

    Agreeing with Churba…

    I was contemplating factoring cheeks into my next suspension, and though I know I won’t look like that, now they’re a must. Really a sign of IAM’s desensitizing properties, but that’s the first time in a while Modblog’s made me go “wow”.
