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.

    Stealing tattoos is lame. showing up on modblog and babbling incoherantly is worse. I thought BME was against tattoo ripping?

    I feel pretty bad for Disconnect, because I always thought her tattoo was a wonderful Bowie quote, and it looked so nice on her. I don’t know how I’d feel if I woke up one day and saw any of my tattoos on someone else, in the same place, same font.

    Fucking lame.
