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.

Compassionately intolerant

The part of me that observing the part of me that is grieving is sort of astonished. Not that I'm crying or sad but just how deeply my sense of loss goes.

Reading stuff like shrift's comment about ita's thoughts on Scarjo just really get me.

When Age of Ultron comes out, of course I will scurry here to see what everyone has to say but...and all due respect to EVERYone...I'd search for ita's comments first.

I never even realized that was true until this minute.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I have to get up and go to rehearsal soon, thankfully, because I'm probably at the point where refreshing the board and FB and LJ endlessly isn't helping me.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

I haven't been around for a long time but came home to the news about ita today and had to come check in. This is just rotten, sad, terrible news. I wasn't as close to ita as many but her words usually had me high-fiving my laptop and hoping that even an ounce of her kickassery would wear off on me.

Always Anti-fascist!

If anyone gets an afterlife, it should be her.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

there's no word for "a person who you've met online, but never in person, and interact with in some way on an almost daily basis and has had a profound impact on your life."

"Friend"

Exactly.

It's the word I used. She was my friend. Not because we'd shared meals or exchanged emails but because of this board. Those other things made the friendship stronger but so does every interaction here.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I don't know how to deal with the fact that I won't get to read her complaints about ScarJo not being able to do action when the new Avengers movie comes out.

Oh shit. Oh...shit.

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

With me it's sushi, and specifically omakase. I knew we would never go to the Hump, but I can't believe no more omakase.

Thrive to spite them

AT work several people asked how I was doing and asked me about my friend who'd died. And I told them about her martial arts and the pink ginham and showed a picture someone had put up on FB - the black and white one of her looking so fierce. And I mentioned her absolute loathing for ScarJo as Black Widow beause of the terrible physicality. Not just all the stunt doubles but the poor gun handling.

When Age of Ultron comes out I'm going to be looking closely for all of that.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Flea let me know this morning, and am off work now and can say: this sucks a lot. In case that was in dispute.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

You guys, I dirty-danced with ita at girlbar back in the day and it was GLORIOUS.

Forever jealous. FOREVER.

I have eaten most of a large box of Nerds. Turns out you can eat your feelings even if you are kind of numb.
