Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

ita's thread

A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.

Our wings are not tired.

I keep going over to where WtVPPLtL sits on my shelf, and opening it up to random pages, ita hunting. Sometimes I cry, but mostly I am so grateful that Allyson took the time to document the growth of this place, and its builders.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Um, so my boss just sent me this [link]

(she had asked ita's name earlier)

I was this close to making it through the week without crying at work too.

Always Anti-fascist!

I only hope, when it's my turn(Hopefully far from now--this isn't foreshadowing, people) I have a quarter of the reach that she did.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Oh. That's. Yeah. Thank you for linking it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

That is beautiful, and stunning. And... gah. It's not just us, and not just her family. Everyone who knew her wants to make everyone who didn't know about it and wish they had; we all just want to grab everyone and say, "Look. Look. Here she was. Her she is. How unlikely is she? But she is."

The combined prettiness of the hair of everyone in ita's apartment shimmers with the light of a thousand burning suns.

Wow, what an amazing tribute. And what a gorgeous picture; can it be added to our compilation?
