'A Hole in the World'


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.

Thank you for linking the i09 thread, David.

Omg I love the picspam of crying Winchesters. So appropriate.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Can I have my depression back? I keep tearing up when Andi does.

I'd rather have the numbness of depression back.

And ita.

Mostly ita.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Hope it's okay, I wanted David's post in COMM here, too:

Saw this from ita in the Bureaucracy thread. I know how thwarted she felt by her health issues, but this line made me feel a tiny bit better. She knew what a beautiful thing she had made. She knew its worth and value. An amazing legacy in itself, for all the other worlds she didn't get to conquer.

ita: Oh, we are so not a CMS. Hand-stitched from the deepest layer.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

There should be an ita archive so if accounts get closed, it is not lost.

One of the things I thought of after I heard the news was the table of ASCII and HTML entities that she kept up on her domain that I bookmarked years ago because it was just so damn useful. I still use it to this day (last Saturday, in fact).

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I love the idea of archiving ita's work. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help with that.

It sounds odd, but one thing I liked was disagreeing with ita. It didn't happen often, but when it did we could argue things out in a straightforward but civil way. I tend to avoid conflict because I worry about losing friends. But I had the impression that ita welcomed the exchange of differing ideas, as long as The Stupid didn't get too thick. It was something I miss about my dad, and it's something I'm going to miss about ita, too.

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

Ha, I found a recent discussion on I09 where she was digging into the casting issues with Ghost In The Shell and she just sounds....so like herself. Feisty without being contentious, strong POV, making people check their assumptions, putting things in context.

This is just a week ago.

She's Serenada over there, though I'm sure you could tell that anyway.

Of course!
