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.

Do you like fish sticks?

Radiobath sends us this colourful Betta inked by Lauchie from Visible Ink in Saugus, MA. Ok, I apologize for the title of this entry. I couldn’t help myself. I really love the vibrancy of a fresh tattoo and the purple shades in this one are gorgeous.

    I don’t think that’s an anatomically correct betta, but the fringed edge on the tail kind of looks like a crowntail, which is a really spectacular breed. http://www.google.com.sg/images?oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&q=crowntail&um=1&ie=UTF-8&source=univ&ei=BYwGTNS1HMa5rAfntejIDA&sa=X&oi=image_result_group&ct=title&resnum=1&ved=0CCEQsAQwAA

    Wow, I didn’t get any notification that my picture was posted up in the ModBlog. Kind of shocking what you find when you play “Google your username” at 2 in the morning.

    Yes, it’s a crowntail betta. The colors are much more muted now and blend a lot better–not at all like a sore penis. And Choice, I know what you mean. 🙁 I rescue bettas from pet stores when I have the money. It’s really rewarding when they go from listless and dull to brightly colored and active.

    It’s as if the penis fish still had it’s foreskin. I can totally see it.
