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.

    I really don’t have an opinion about this but a rather funny story to relate to #5. my auto-shop teacher in high school had skin cancer and lost part of his lower lip. so to fix the problem, they stretched out the lip, and basically remade it. this guy was bad ass to begin with, and when he passes, many hardcore guys i went to high school with will most likely cry themselves to sleep every night. but yeah, that’s all i have to say about that.

    My ex had his lobe bit in a bar fight and decided to prove his manliness by getting drunker and cutting it off himself. Idiot. Also I’m loving the shades.
