Square wave filtering with d-flip flop

I have a square wave (1st line), I want to skip every odd impulse, and output every even one without change, as shown in the second line. Is this different from frequency division? What is the ...

Anyway to avoid the startup delay on square wave generator (e.g. 555 astable) circuit?

In the classic 555 astable circuit the external capacitor charges to 2/3 of the Vcc (through R1 and R2) and then is discharged to 1/3 of Vcc (through R2) and then it continues to oscillate between 1/3 ...
