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.

  • Suspended, Not Silenced
    There’s something undeniably powerful about watching someone working through the stages of suspension. We all build up ideas about ourselves—what we’re allowed to feel, how much we’re allowed to express, when it’s okay to break. For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced

    Some stories take their time, unfolding over decades, through life’s long detours and diversions. But dreams never rest until they’re fully realized.
