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.

Underneath the mistletoe

Written by

Rob

While the holidays may be over for some, for others they’re just about to hit the boiling point.  When you take away the presents, the lights, the overt religious symbolisms, what you’re left with is the time of year that you and your loved ones can get together.  Take Sloppynobody and Stainedskin1982, these two lovebirds are engaged to be married, and judging by this photo are pretty happy with each other.  So while you may not be in the same place as these two, take some time over the next little while and spend some time with those who mean the most to you.

On a side note, there won’t be any updates tomorrow, so if you’re celebrating christmas this weekend, or some other holiday, enjoy your weekend, and be safe.

Oh, and if you don’t have plans for New Year’s Eve yet, BME is hosting a bash at BME Headquarters just outside Richmond, VA.  Check the event page for all the details.  Hope to see you there!
