cake or death?
The swan song of one [info]thanfiction aka Andy Blake/VB, etc. He is leaving the internets forver. Maybe. If he doesn't die from his mysterious heart condition--he's going to college. Yes, sir. But he is unlikely to ever give up the cancer sticks.

n.b.: Please use the pronoun he when refering to Andy or face the wrath of pretty much everyone, but especially those who can ban your ass along with the rest of you.

eta: I didn't bother posting a link to Turi's reaction post because it was even more boring than Andy's brave farewell. But some sockpuppet comments to defend Andy.

"These do not exist other than the usual complaints about a failed romance (between he and luvscharlie)."

WAIT WOT? All that frothing from luvscharlie was heart break? D:

what's the issue with the pronoun "he?" I missed that.

Epic transfail in the first post.

Some of this person's long history of fandom wank includes wank under his confusingly-to-some-gendered "Victoria Bitter" handle (it's a beer, not a first name and last name, apparently) and some wank revolving around events that took place when he was using his birth name/legal name of Amy Player.

So there's some honest confusion due to the above, but there's been a lot more just flat out being a jerk about someone's gender identity. Even cheating scamming megalomaniacs get to be the final authority on their own gender identities.

I should say "birth name/then legal name of Amy Player"--I do not know what his legal name is now.

It's entirely possible he's still Amy Player in the eyes of the law. If there were any legal changes made, he's certainly not going to openly admit to them.

Well, yeah, the whole "Amy Player is my evil twin, not the name I was given at birth" thing is just weird, but I wanted to be clear that I don't personally know what Andy/VB's current legal name is.

Long story but Andrew is transgendered and we only refer to him as he. Some people insisted on using she because Andy used to present as female. This is not up for discussion here.

Go to the main page and scroll down until you find the other VB/Andy Blake posts if you need to know more. The discussions were enormous and difficult.

You're lucky you missed it.

Though, I will say, there were some incredibly educational and interesting links on trans* in the first or second post that I really enjoyed reading. I should look for them again when it's not 6:30 in the morning and I have to work.
