I meant to say earlier how lovely this is, askye. I love the conceit that even though she's a moon, we revolve around her.
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

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.

Thrive to spite them
Thank you so you much. Hearing your thoughts it makes me feel like I've done her justice.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Oh, askye. That's just lovely. Tears. Thank you.
With your permission, I'd like to print it out and frame it for my office. And if someone has a great pic of ita! please to be linking. I'm thinking a pink gingham border.

Thrive to spite them
When I postd it I felt like it needed polishing because it felt a little rough but maybe the roughness is a good thing.
Of course you can print it out! I'd be honored.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Stupid moment of being blindsided by missing:
Last night Emmett was ahemming the Warriors game on his laptop; as is usual for a lot of streaming games, it came with commercial interruptions that were both frequent and the same two or three ads over and over. One of them was for something I don't even recall, but the conceit of the ad was that some guy really wants to do karaoke all the time, and his go-to piece is "Carry On, My Wayward Son."
I never saw or heard the reference in its original context, am not attached to either the original or the fannish source, and literally know nothing about it except that it has weight and meaning to ita and that the O-deckers used it as a low-key tribute to her, but that's all I needed to get completely distraught by the time the ad ran for the fourth or fifth time (and I think it ran at least four more times after that). I want her back; I want the old world back, the one with her in it. This world is stupid.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I'm the exact same way, not being an SPN watcher, but every time I hear it, I tear up. Every time.
And I watch so many CW shows that I see SPN commercials kind of frequently, and every damn one is a gutpunch.

LinkedIn is always suggesting I need to reconnect with her.
It's a gut punch seeing her face come up on screen out of the blue.

Always Anti-fascist!
We'd love to, Linkedin, but I think that's a service you can't provide.

Our wings are not tired.
JZ why was he ahemming the game when it was on abc? I know you guys went cable free but don't you have an antenna to get OTA network stuff? Or have they scrambled OTA network stuff too?

We can't pick up any broadcast stuff in the shadow of Parnassus Heights. I think we can sort of pick up one broadcast channel.
