Fire in the disco!

You may have noticed that the ION model for today contains far more hair, muscles and testicles than you’re used to. That’s because there is no LW Mag sponsored Homegrown Hottie this week. Also, it’s all Zoe and Gavin’s fault. They made me do this. Form an angry mob around them, if you would. You can use the beard of Lardus as a makeshift torch.
