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.

Perfect Placement?

Well, where else would you expect to find an Ol’ Dirty Bastard?!

    h ~ i admit i preferred modblog from previous years, but i do take into account that roo can only work with what he gets and cut slack. basically my problem is people keep bitching about the dumbest stuff.
    for example:
    “waah waah waah there are too many/not enough ___________* on modblog”

    * naked chicks
    cocks
    stupid tattoos
    cuttings
    specific person
    awesome tattoos
    bad tattoos
    guess the parts
    etcetera.

    if you can’t say something worthwhile, say it quietly and to yourself, okay?

    Severed- that is why I posted the second comment saying I know it has some what to do with what people are submitting. I really don’t think roo is doing a bad job given what he has to work with. I’ve bitched about a few things that have been posted but its mostly just my longing for the way things used to be. I enjoyed seeing all of the crazy shit that people got. The stuff that blew my mind. And actually getting to see peoples mods instead of “fashion” shots where you can see tattoos but can’t tell what they are. I think a lot of others feel the same considering the lack of comments around here. It seems like the only posts bringing in 70+ comments are the ones that have people arguing about animal rights, body hair, spelling errors, or people just arguing for the hell of it. Its just getting kinda old.
