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 it just my imagination or does Lola* have two uvulas? She really does, very cool! Piercings (not in the uvula though) by Taco Joe at Black Ink Industries in Borneo, Malaysia. As a point of trivia, about 2% of people have a bifid uvula — it’s similar to a cleft palate anatomically.

    Hey my mom has two uvulas. I didn’t realize it was so rare. The only problem she has ever had with it is sometimes it is hard to swallow pills.
