"In our society, physical difference frightens people. Oh, you can be as evil as hell on the inside, but do one little physical thing like, oh, I don't know, tattoo your face, and man, do people freak out. It's a curse of our society that we must fit into a rigid pattern to belong. There's no room for imagination and creativity."
-Captain Howdy (Dee Snider), "Strangeland"

What's up.. I'm Jessie, I've lived near Cleveland all my life. I'll probably either be one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet, or the biggest bitch... but that's all on you.
I've been studying Satanism, and most people are very wrong about what true Satanism really is.. and I'm talking about Anton Lavey. I've realized that a lot of it is what I've believed all along, and it just makes sense to me. I wouldn't really call myself a Satanist... but I definately agree with the core philosophies of it.
I'm pretty addicted to tattoos and piercings.. and been interested in other types of body modification too. And no, I don't do it just because I think it's "cool". Most of my tattoos have deep meaning to me, and I love getting pierced... I have my reasons which I don't feel like explaining... Ask me if you're really that curious.
I love reading and learning as much as I can... there's definately not enough time in the day to do all that I want to do. I want to travel the world and experience everything that I can.
I love art, in all its forms. I'm a photography student.
I completely believe that anything is possible and you really can do anything that you want to do... You just have to truly believe you can and work towards it. You create your own destiny, just get off your ass and do something about it. It's usually some type of fear that stops people from doing something. Never fear anything... fear is just a state of mind. So I really don't have any sympathy for people with "phobias" or anything like that... It's all in your head. Mind over matter... you can conquer anything!

IN MOD WE TRUST
The very question "why" is offensive. The suggestion that We are obligated to answer this question when they are not is by definition bigoted. One has the responsibility to answer the question why to oneself. Under no circumstances does anyone have the right to non-consensually question or investigate the personal motives.
- On the subject of societal norms -
Fleeting changes in the whims of the lowest common denominator, grains of sand barely understood by the hundredth monkey that blindly follows, represent our collective "statistically normal" deaths. We declare those who adhere to norms for the sake of conformity to be traitors to everything that makes humanity beautiful. We, the people full of daring creativity and energy, declare them to be a scourge upon our planet. The entire concept of a "societal norm" as far as aesthetic definitions go is a flawed concept. It suggests that somehow there are blanket laws that apply to all of us. The very fact that these laws change radically from region to region and time to time points out their fallacies: are we expected to believe that humans are different in 2002 than they were in 1802? Or that humans are different in Britain than they are in India? Following these norms is an easy way out that surrenders much of what we should value in ourselves. Any free person knows that "societal norm" is just another term for "prison".
- On the subject of the unmodified -
We have no objection to people who do not choose to pursue their bodies per se. Body modifications and the rituals that surround them are unimportant when stripped of meaning, and there are many ways to explore freedom without the body's specific involvement. We only object to those who choose to deny control over one's body and the issues surrounding it, be it out of simple physical fear, or be it from a large fear of non-conformance. - That said, there is much to be learned about oneself and ones place in the world by taking that brave step into active self ownership. The unmodified are no more unable to have vision than the blind. Even though the blind may not have functional eyes, they are very capable of vision on the greater scale. - Any attempt to deny the right to pursue body modifcation should be seen as a direct attack on personal freedom and should not be tolerated under any circumstances.
- On the subject of freedom -
Freedom is what we are demanding. Freedom to pursue a way of life that enhances us, and we feel enhances the planet without bringing harm to anyone. We recognize everyone's right to lead their life in any way they see fit as long as it does not encroach on our freedom to do the same. - Any attempt to deny this freedom shall be seen as an act of war and will be responded to with the full retaliatory force deserved.
