Lordy lordy, is that pretty or what? That’s the Tibetan Agate round front stone plug by Evolve, and it’s just one of many brand new stone products freshly added to BME Shop. Truly beautiful stuff here, as if you needed me to tell you that. Check out some more pieces after the jump, but first:
We’ve also just upped our stock of Evolve’s ornate brass jewelry, including these Ancient Eye brass weights. Get some.

Hey, don’t be so hard on yourself! This Hole-inspired (probably?) piece is plenty pretty on the outside, too—though I guess you sort of expect that with a cutting (plus electro-cautery branding!) by the excellent Christiane at Pinpoint Piercing in Oslo, Norway. Also, wow, considering this is the inglorious Summer of Celebrity Death, is Courtney Love just hiding out in her panic room for days on end or what? Stay safe out there, famous crazies.

Get excited, Ohioans! The littlest king of Brooklyn, Brian Decker of Pure Body Arts is packing up his hobo bindle and taking his show on the road! Next stop, Columbus, Ohio, from July 29 to August 4. Book your appointments as soon as possible, as these suckers are bound to fill up fast. In the mean time, check out the above video, courtesy of Nae, showing off her fancy (and healed, and gigantic) silicone hand implants courtesy of Mr. Decker (installation shown here). After the jump, a few stills of her hands in all their flowery glory.

When Andy sent in this zombie Michael Jackson tribute (?) portrait, it was accompanied with the ever-present, “Too soon?” Now, under normal circumstances, sure, getting a tattoo of a recently deceased celebrity as a hideous member of the walking dead may be in poor taste, but hey, Michael Jackson was arguably most famous for a video in which he appeared…as a zombie! If anything, this is how he would want to be memorialized! (Maybe not.) At any rate, our initial clinical reaction was, No, this isn’t too soon. Get yer MJ zombie on with impunity and a clear conscience, folks!
Oh, right, and then we noticed his right hand. You are going to Hell.

You know what the grand irony here is? That lip tattoo is almost 900 years old. True story. Now, I’m not saying Technodeamon is definitely a Highlander, but…Technodeamon is definitely a Highlander. That said, immortal or not, the turquoise-shirt-and-zebra-tie ensemble is sure as hell doing it for me. Fresh, indeed.
It’s already Thursday, ModBloggers! Time flies when you’re looking at BattleDongs. But hey, we’ve both been very brave.
