I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

surely for this bit of news she would have Opinions

Right? I'm not actually sure what they would be but I know they would be strong.

I was also surprised by the ages, Sophia.

Yeah, I assumed she was older than him. But I think mostly because I can't believe he's as old as he is, because I don't watch his current shows so he's still early 20s to me.

He's still a leather cuff wearing kid from chino! And she's always read older to me.

I'm watching Star Trek: TNG reruns right now, and Inara and Councilor Troi seem a bit similar. I don't think it's just the attractive brunette factor.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Inara and Councilor Troi seem a bit similar.

They have similar personalities.

They should have had an exchange program and traded places.

Picard: "Councilor--I mean Inara, are you sensing anything from the Klingon ambassador?

Inara: "I would need to have sex with him first."

Picard: "Make it so."

eta: Um, possibly ita would have laughed at this?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Man, a lot of people would be complaining to the Companions oversight body when they found out the tea ceremonies would be followed up by therapy sessions.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So I clicked through a gallery on the Mary Sue of Steven Universe fan art and stumbled on this:

And I noticed it was signed: ITA '15.

And I looked through the Tumblr and this woman who is 20 and doing this fan art goes by a lower case "ita" (I think last name amey). It bookmarks as "miss ita."

And her tumblr tag is #ita_art.

It is strange that there is a talented woman out there creating her own fannish "ita art" but I thought I'd note it.

Doesn't impinge on the utter singularity of our ita, and I suspect she'd be down with some ita solidarity.

Always Anti-fascist!

She doesn't really remind me of Buffista ita, artistically speaking.(Not that that's a knock--I just wondered if she would)

Completely different styles. This girl draws on her computer. Our ita was pen and ink all the way.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Our cabin steward was from Jamaica, and his last name is Anderson. Even knowing that it's a common Jamaican last name, I had to ask. He didn't know her.
