hey, some of us interested in the Blanch stuff arent totally neurotic wrecks (emphasis on some)

that every goddamn year on October 9th, the Blanch posts a photo of his birthday cake and/or of himself; and everyone who sees the replies is forced to reckon that there is an ever-increasing retinue of Online Transsexuals that actually like him enough to sincerely wish him happy birthday

honestly the funniest part with the whole Blanchard thing (I can say this since I'm in a much better place to engage with it than when I first ran into that stuff and saw it -- or rather, my misinterpretations of it -- as cruel personal judgments that threatened to thwart me from transitioning), is

Of course delightfully apt that when you have no clocking issues; the FPGA toolchain says your design passes (passes timing analysis, that is).
