Sue O let me know this terrible, terrible news. I haven't posted here in years but I felt I needed to reach out and share my condolences. I'm very sad that I never got to meet ita in person.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
A light has indeed gone out in this world. Much love to all whose hearts are aching now.
Kettlebells. Along with kravving I hope ita is doing kettlebells. That's something else she dearly missed being able to do.
So much love to everyone here, and especially to all the LAistas who cared for her with all your hearts and all your strength and every ER trip and food run and all of it. And a hearty FUCK YOU to every so-called healthcare provider who put roadblocks between ita and pain relief. Not to be in pain is such a small thing to want in this hard awful world. Fuck you all.
All her artwork. All her photos. Provocateuse and barefoot men and fierce gorgeous women. All the crinolines and stompy boots and the binder she wanted to get but hadn't yet. All the people at iO9. ita, no. Please.
JZ, I'm glad you're here to put into words what I'm feeling.
How do I feel so broken over someone I never had the opportunity to meet in person? Fuck you to anyone who says you can't make true connections with someone you know only online. And FUCK YOU to the medical pain management establishment.

Oh, fucking goddamnit. I was numb too until I reached the end of the thread.
Buffistas. I'm so sorry. I never got up the courage to introduce myself in person but I will miss ita so much.
What are we going to do? How are we going to exist without her? It doesn't seem right.
Holy fuck. I don't even know how to process this.
Kristen and Hec, thanks for the notification. My heart goes out to all who love ita and will miss her. Myself included.
