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.

    krallice – Agreed. Especially right now when a lot of people are having a hard time. Or maybe people being out of work is better? I’m trying not to be sarcastic but it’s kind of funny when BME gets slammed for supporting the body modification industry. Ah well, there’s no pleasing some.

    what Jake said. Make another page for it on BME and post there.

    Modblog is supposed to be a blog of body modifications. I’m just worried that now there’s going to be a post on job offers frequently, because this is already the second one posted recently. Take it somewhere else on the site – not on the blog. This is really not the place for it.

    And yeah, I wouldn’t exactly call what I said “slamming” the site. And yes, there is pleasing me. I am pleased when this blog has good modifications (or bad ones complete with a warning of what could have been done to prevent them) and an intelligent write up. The BME world tour entries are interesting and appreciated. Take the inappropriate classified ads and pictures of huge blowouts somewhere else.

    oh lol at your insinuation

    Jake made a good suggestion that I agreed with. Would you be happy if every third post was a classified ad? I’m worried about the direction this is going not this one small post.

    But this argument has now become silly. Continue it if you wish, but there is little point in doing so.

    It’s relevant, why not post it. That shop does look really cool though. Plus who doesn’t need a freaking job right now? I’ve been out of work since December.
