How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

Wash ,'Objects In Space'


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.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Gross.

move out and draw fire

Compare and contrast with how much anyone else tweeted about it.

I just remembered that I tweeted to Colin that night, because I forgot to put his number in my phone.

I'm sorry.

It's also shitty writing. Why is it written in second person? Gross.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I guess you all have more finely tuned bullshit detectors than I do, because that doesn't set off mine.

Use of the 2nd person, he's depersonalized it. This is what other people may be feeling, he guesses.

I think for me it is the set up.

hey everyone are you paying attn - I'm going to write something now.

then the thing itself - It both states I I I, while seemingly minimizing him, but it is only seemingly - it is still all self.

then that it was on twitter which I guess is his main social media outlet, but seems an odd choice given that I think the fewest of those of us who knew her are there. it reads as not really about her, but about the piece, to get a reaction for an audience.

and this was written this year on her birthday, so a year later.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I agree, it feels like a performance

It is terrible that really I just want to be done thinking about him? For now anyway

Because books.

I feel the same way, Burrell. I keep loving that we're all here together, and the board is so active, and then I remember why we're here and it pisses me off.

Thrive to spite them

It's a weird sympathy ploy self promotion thing...like a teaser for his story more than remembering ita. At least that's how I feel.

And I also feel happy to see people but sorry it's under these circumstances.
