What is even happening?

Oh, good. Thanks. And Tep, thanks to you, Hec, Deb, Cashmere, and VW for making sure I would know. I'm just so sorry and that's all I can keep thinking or saying.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Everyone...I appreciate the sentiment behind your sorrow for me, but...well, really, it's time for Grandma. She's made it clear she wants to go and, frankly, she's hung around longer than anyone expected. The real, final push was, I think, my mom's death. So I'm okay. This day's sorrow isn't for me, it's for ita. I seriously don't want it to be other than that.

Tomorrow, next week, next month...whenever my Grandma decides to go...then I'll be here accepting your comfort. Today I just want to share the comfort we can bring each other, what I can give as well as get.

This day is about ita. And it's *for* Allyson and Kristen and Paula and ita's family and...well, all of us, but equally.

If that makes sense.

Yes, it does. It makes total sense.

But thank you for your kindness.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hi Cindy. Glad to see you check in, in that weird and bittersweet way.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Heh. The BF basically said the same thing. He doesn't want his loss today to take away from the grief we feel at ita's. I told him it doesn't work like that. It's not a "take from pot A and put in pot B" situation. It's more like they become pot AB and the grief and the sorrow flow freely.

Our wings are not tired.

Le Nubian texted me about it, so she knows.

Allyson just posted a call for help in the ita thread, FYI.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Earlier tonight I was checking the news on what used to be AfterElton.com, saw they were doing a photo retrospective for Orlando Bloom's birthday, and thought "Oh, ita will love this!" for about half a second before reality drop-kicked me.

I really don't want to go to bed, because I'm going to lay down and cry and not be able to sleep.

Because books.

What Steph said. I think I'm reading till I nod off.
