BME: Body Modification Ezine

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.

Gloss on Gloss

Good morning, ModBloggers! Hope we’re finding you well-rested, caffeinated and…anything else you might need to start the day. And, hey, think you had a rough commute? Probably wasn’t half as bad as old Sisyphus up there.

Stick around, folks! We’ve got a brand new feature going up shortly. Until then, cut and paste.

(Pulling facilitated by Havve and Wings of Desire at the Fakir Academy, Norway.)
