WATCH THIS VIDEO
a very, VERY important post. spread everywhere and screen record the video to your phone. or message me and ill happily send you the video. give to every woman and girl you know.
bc as they both said / demonstrated, its not only super easy to do, but super easy to miss.
Ladies be aware and careful. Guys call out assholes who even think about doing that to someone.
And not just ladies. Last time I circulated one of these sorts of post, a gay male friend mentioned a similar thing happening both to him and somebody he knew.
My Unexpected Trip to Mystic Falls
iMeSo this holiday break I drove down south to visit family I hadn’t seen in awhile. I was excited about seeing them but not happy about the over ten hour drive this was going to end up being both ways. Family is important so I was willing to concede even though “I didn’t feel like it”, but boy was it worth it.
I get there Sunday evening and after thanking God for a safe journey, I was stoked to see my family. Hugs and kisses were exchanged and after settling down, my aunt and cousin begins to tell me about the new town they just moved to a few months back…Covington, Georgia. I knew I was coming there but every time they told me the name of the place, my brain would try to remember where I’d heard about it previously but I never could come up with it.
Then my cousin goes, “You’ve heard of the show Vampire Diaries, right?”
Me:
“Well you know they filmed right here in Covington”
Me:
Like I’m legit shocked. I knew they filmed somewhere in Georgia I just had no clue that they filmed where my fam actually moved. I’m late to the Vampire Diaries, Originals, and Legacies world. In fact, one of my students suggested I watch it because I liked teen dramas and had shared that in class before. Needless to say I was dumb excited.
After doing the typical Christmas holiday stuff, my family and I drove to downtown Covington and I was immediately lost in the world of Mystic Falls. I also realized why they call that place the “Hollywood of the South”.
Anyway, I’m just gonna share some cool shit I saw down there and hope you guys enjoy.
So when you drive in you’re immediately hit with the Mystic Falls town square. They actually have a Mystic Grill, the park, and the clock tower located in the middle of town.
So we parked and walked around through the square and took several shots. They had a store there that gave tours, but I didn’t go because literally everything is in walking distance. After taking pictures, so local folks told us we can actually go into the Mystic Grill and take pictures and there’s also a museum over there.
So you can go down the side steps next to the Mystic Grill and they had some cool shots there as well.

Matt’s Bench.
So then, you can go into the gift shop. Not only is it a gift shop but they have the actors actual clothing that was worn on set from Vampire Diaries and The Originals. (Sorry some of these pics didn’t come out as clear as I would liked)
One of the first things I saw was Elena’s clothes from Episode 1.
Bonnie’s shirt from the decades dance. I commented on how small the clothes were. Something I already knew internally that they are tiny. There was a lady who worked in the gift shop that’s been around for awhile and she noted that Kat Graham (Bonnie) was the smallest. She was a size 0 and they still had to take her clothing in.
Caroline’s outfit.
Elena’s decade outfit.
Damon’s shirt.
Elijah’s suit.
Elijah’s portrait.
Elena’s clothes.
Elena’s dress. I think from season 6. The last episode she was in before leaving. The lady at the shop also commented that Nina is a size 2. She said she’s small but has big feet and big hands. It was kinda shady and I chuckled slightly.
Freya’s wedding dress.
Hayley’s clothes.
Rebekah’s clothes.
Stefan’s jersey.
Salzman t-shirt.
I brought some stuff and then I went upstairs towards the Mystic Grill. They get a lot of tourist so we were allowed to go in and take pics. The actual grill doesn’t look like it is on the show inside. Also to be expected.
Outside the Mystic Grill
Inside they let you go to the roof and take pics from the roof and they also had signed copies of the menus from the cast.
Side note on Danielle that the lady in the museum gave me. She said Danielle is very mature for her age but also very kind. She said out of the new kids Matt Davis likes her the best out of the new kids. The shop owner was insinuating that Danielle may have been the most humble of the newer kids. She said Davis mentioned that the new kids “already new they had a built in fan base and he liked working with Danielle the best.”
Lol at Nina writing all her characters down.
From the roof of the Mystic Grill
After taking all the pics from the Mystic Grill, we were informed that the Gilbert residence was only down the street, so of course I went there as well.
Seeing the Gilbert house made me a little emoteliional because so much shit happened in that house but more importantly on that porch. For whatever reason when Elena and Stefan broke up, that scene popped into my head paulfirst. Or Bonnie being on the porch when she was stuck in that world by herself.
Anywho, the trip was totally unexpected but it was awesome and to other fans I hope you get a chance to see it one day. I was super late to this world and fandom and it was cool to get my geek on during the break.
REST IN PEACE JUSTICE GINSBURG🖤🖤🖤
August Round Up
It’s been a lazy summer and I haven’t been actively posting but I have been reading. I just thought I’d give a quick round up as it’s the end of August from my perspective. The summer of Covid really isn’t pretty for anyone but I’ve been trying to make the best of it.
So this is what’s happening (as I see it) with the Fandom.
MATT AND MARIL
I heard Maril and Matt had twin girls. Didn’t see that posted anywhere. Again I don’t have a confirmed source for that, just something I heard (and it wasn’t on Tumblr.) Congratulations to them if it’s true.
GIA
Gia. So apparently Gia hasn’t posted in a few days so that has caused some concern in the shipper world that Gia may be jetting off to go see Sam.
But what can the trolling class do if she’s not actually on Social Media?
Well they go and troll the next best thing: they start up on Mackenzie!
I kid you not:
Here’s Fed_UpPurvlies trying to cozy up to Mackenzie’s photographer - Mackenzie Identified and gave credit to the photographer:
That is a page out of Trishku’s book. Cozy up to people to get info so you can spin it into something from one of the Anon accounts she’s so famous for trying to pretend exists. This kind of move makes me think that this troll account could be one of the trolls of Canada.
Then there’s Malibu Barb:
That’s a Flutist Kim statement. The photo is beautiful but of course Kim types need to make it ugly. Then again Kim has never taken a good picture though sweaty Kim (who pretended to run a foot race when she was in MPC and took a photo for Sam pretending to be dripping from sweat from the race.) Clearly that photo was ‘shopped’ -meaning she went and bought a bottle of water to throw over herself to pretend she was sweating and bought that cool stein to show her trophy. With all the running she supposedly did that year she never seemed to tone up. Even when she went to the MPC Scotland event she pretended to twist her ankle so she couldn’t exercise but she seemed to get around Scotland just fine, visiting Sam’s charities to try to get them on her side, and taking paper making classes with Sam’s mother.
And finally another troll account - Samford Mom
Somehow the shippers either found out that Mackenzie and Paydin had a falling out or perhaps it’s just wishful thinking but this one here is really rubbing it in.
Funny thing is that I sort of remember the name so I Google her name and guess who popped up?
TOTAL
Yep, the Troll of Truth and Lies (TOTAL)…aka Marge.
This is actually a good segue into TOTAL. WTH is wrong with TOTAL these days; she needs to engage the new shipper brigadge?
Perhaps Can’t Resist Temptation just doesn’t know TOTAL’s new Tumblr account and think she’s new?
She’s the one going after them; they are not going after her. Then again, come to think of it - nobody ever cared what Marge said. They were all uber obsessed with Purv.
So maybe poor TOTAL needs to be vigilante truth troller to show her followers that she’s worthy of shipper attention?
It’s kind of pathetically sad that she’s bothering with this new bunch. All they have done is rehashed all the old shipper theories to the point of boredom:
Sam and Caitriona are secretly married.
Tony is Caitriona’s gay assistant who is being paid to pretend to be her husband.
Blah, blah, blah… They cannot even make up any new gossip.
I guess we should be thankful they are not finding reflections in hotel serving covers anymore. Those were the most ridiculous:
So yeah, TOTAL is being a total nitwit. Does she think that she can engage these new shippers and talk some sense into them? Has it ever worked before?
She’ll tell you that by me saying those things that I’m jealous that she’s existing on both sides and she’s accepted as an equal in shipperdom.
The funny thing is that the assumption is that she’s accepted on the side of truth after some of the things she’s done is hilarious. Those of you that have been around for a couple years know how Jess and company could care less about her and the Shirt only cared about her when it was to attack either Purv or myself.
That’s how respected she actually is. Haha!
If it makes her happy to scold idiots, thinking she is making a difference - let her continue but I just wonder if they even know who she is and what stupidity she can cause?
THE SHIRT
And speaking about the Shirt. She’s leaving!
Of course all she is doing is moving to a private blog. I guess her make believe hypothesis that Sam is sending her messages and that she has proof of this and that really doesn’t stand up well with reality.
I was hoping she’d finally publish her fairy tale report - you know the one where she took $4K of people’s money, pretended to hire private investigators, dummied up fake invoices and then spent months writing out a report for Sam that she claims in the middle of Hawaii gate that she sent to an old address she had for Sam.
Sam never received anything. I checked. He is on the lookout for it though - maybe she should resend it so we can all have a good laugh?
I honestly don’t think she did anything but be a grifter to those stupid 60 plus women. Who in their right mind would believe that she did all that and found the saddest women on the planet to not only back her but then sit by patiently while she told the excuse after excuse? BTW, Scilla and Purv are still on Social Media so I hope you ladies think it was money well spent when you got nothing but a bunch of hoopla from a grifter.
Funny how both Purv and Scilla will have outlasted the Shirt.
Don’t be surprised Go Fund Me ladies if the Shirt is finished with you yet. Nigerian scammers have nothing on the Shirt. She has a ‘nose’ for money and sniffing it out. She’s not done with any of you yet. She’s going to try to get more. Is she “accidentally” (wink!) going to invite “Eileen” the supposed asian, racist who seems to know slang words only used in Boston where the shirt lives?
I know she tried that last time she closed up her blog but I guess it wasn’t impactful to get a new GFM going. I wonder what she has planned this time? I’m sure it will be a whopper of a story because she has a captive audience and no detractors from telling you to smell the coffee & think for yourselves.
I’m just happy that she and her crazies are going behind a wall so the rest of us don’t have to see what crazy things she posts.
It’s 2020 in a world of Covid and you think that Sam and Caitriona are still pretending? If that’s what you need to get you through your day; that’s great but do you ever sit back and ask yourself - why in a world fighting for people’s rights on a near daily basis would you think that someone like Caitriona or Sam would put up with a lie? For work? I guarantee that if Tall Ships were to offer either or both of them an “out” from their contact they would jump at it. They don’t need their Outlander jobs. It’s a low paying albatross with a huge time commitment around both their necks.
Some of you follow her every word and you are convincing yourself that a secret marriage that supposedly happened in December 2015 is still being kept secret to this day?
Actors are the first ones to cry foul - don’t you think that actors and crew that have since left the show would have called out any hypocrisy if they knew it?
Whatever the case, I’ve told you my thoughts Shirt followers. You are the ones that are going to need help because she only sees you as ATM machines and she will say whatever crazy idea she can think of to get you to part with her money and fund her plans.
OTHER NOTABLES:
LIA
What isn’t wrong with this bizarre woman? She wants everyone to desperately believe that she is a someone.
She has these one way conversations with an account that has locked tweets and only follows one person: Lia. So the only person on the planet that can see what they tweet is Lia and she tweets back replies. Why she doesn’t just DM them and have a DM conversation with the guy is beyond me but it’s truly hysterical.
She want’s everyone to believe she is in PR. She takes these productions that get positive reviews and “adopts” them and pretends that she’s in charge of PR. She did that wil the Medicis from Netflix, A Hidden Life Movie and now she appears to be obsessed with Little Voice on Apple TV.
Some other eye rolling things about Lia, she retweeted this mid August:
She, like all the bizarre shippers is still holding on to the desperate fantasy that Sam and Caitriona are secretly married.
And she wonders why she got blocked by Sam? For those that don’t remember, Lia was one of the first to scream foul about Sam blocking her on Twitter. She claimed she had done all this ‘work’ for him and that’s how he repaid her yet here’s this tweet from October of last year about banoffee pie. It’s truly disgusting the lengths she went through but she still also claims she has receipts to prove her claims but of course after all this she still hasn’t shown them. Just likes to talk about them every so often.
Also what foreign born person says “Sitch” (assuming situation)? That doesn’t sound like someone born abroad with English as her second language.
One final funny thing:
After her screeching meltdown on Twitter about being blocked by Sam, Lia put this image up in as her “revenge” showing that SHE blocked Sam ( or course this happened AFTER he blocked her but that’s just semantics, right?)
If this were a screenplay, none of these characters would be believable: so truth REALLY is stranger than fiction. Until next time!
Marge’s efforts are still irrelevant. I’m afraid she’s just doomed to irrelevance. - and she (thought) she had so much promise 😩.
Is that…, josh peck…
If I don’t see this somewhere on my tl every Friday, I’m gonna be very upset
oh… she can sing
Why didn’t she release this version originally??
because she was 13 and had no control over it and now shes in her 20s lol
After years of global searching and processing human response, the internet has finally completed its original task of finding the most perfect cat video possible.
oh my god
Unmut this 😭😭😭
ABSOLUTELY unmute this.

OMG😱🤦🏻♀️😐
You’re welcome
This is the most useful thing I’ve ever reblogged.
i used to think when people said my cousin twice removed that their cousin must’ve did some fucked up shit to get kicked out of the family twice
Oh so THAT’S what “twice removed” means…
My family did this completely different. We didn’t use “removed” at all. So my first cousin’s child would be my second cousin instead of first cousin once removed, their child my third cousin. My grand uncle/aunt’s child would be my second cousin not first cousin twice removed. Maybe it’s just because I’m use to that but it seems so much simpler than all these removes.
FFS this was a joke saying he hasn’t been divorced yet BECAUSE HE HASNT GOTTEN MARRIED. 🙄 pulling at straws here people.
Totally pulling at straws. Cait is MARRIED to Tony McGill, this is an indisputable FACT. Anyone still thinking otherwise is CHOOSING to bury their head in the sand and not see REALITY. Sam's answer is typical Sam deflecting from his personal life and not wanting to talk about who he dates because he's seen how much hate his past girlfriends have gotten from SamCait Extreme Shippers. BUT, the divorce mention may give us a clue as to why he hasn't gotten married yet. He's seen how painful his parents divorce was, and then his brother's as well, it would make sense that he doesn't want to go down that road. And that's why he may be waiting, until he's 100% sure. I don't blame him.

Woke up to DMs and Anon Asks alerting me to this, what a way to wake up--this is VERY exciting news for Sam! Another film, and look at that cast. Sam continues to shine! 👏
the fact that they had time to set this all up without the cats absolutely decimating it is a feat in and of itself

Found this while going through my granddad’s VHS tapes and couldn’t find it anywhere online, so here it is.
Caitriona Balfe talks about her « sectet » wedding
“I feel very lucky that through this show I met the love of my life, so that’s made me much more of a romantic, to be sure"
Outlander star Caitriona Balfe opens up about secret wedding to Tony McGill
“I feel very lucky that through this show I met the love of my life, so that’s made me much more of a romantic, to be sure"
Outlander star Caitriona Balfe has opened up for the first time about her secret wedding to her husband Tony McGill last autumn.
One of the highest paid women on television, the 40-year-old from Co Monaghan has played the lead in the hit series for the past five seasons, receiving $100,000 per episode.
The star said: “Outlander is a very romantic show and I’m sure some of it rubs off when you are simulating some of those big, strong emotions.
“When you feel it and you experience it, then you want more of it in reality.
“I feel very lucky that through this show I met the love of my life, so that’s made me much more of a romantic, to be sure.”
After a three-year engagement, the couple got married in September.
Caitriona said: “I managed to squeeze it in on a weekend during production but it was beautiful and I had all my close friends and family there.
“Once you are in a room full of people that you love and who love you, it’s just so special and fun. I just want to be happy and to try to stay sane.
“I’m very lucky to have a vocation and a job that I love and I get to work with my passion.
“It’s also very important that your career not be your only thing, so I feel very lucky that I’ve found someone who makes me very, very happy.
“So long as I can keep those two things going, well, then I’ll be good.”
The couple live in Glasgow, near to where the show is filmed. Tony is a musician and producer.
Caitriona is very close to her siblings, many of whom live in London and the family often meet up.
She said: “As an actor, it’s very important to refill the tank and you can’t always be on output mode otherwise you risk not understanding what real life is like and then being able to tell stories.
“I love my job but I want to be a normal human being too, so it’s important to take time.”
Even though she’s based in Scotland, Caitriona says she doesn’t get back to Ireland nearly as much as she would like and she’s eagerly looking for work opportunities here.
She added: “Even though I’m only 45 minutes away by plane, our schedule is so crazy that I’ve probably gone home less than I did when I was living in LA.
“My parents are like, ‘When are you coming home?’
“I’m really looking forward to when I have more time off and spending more time in Ireland because I do miss it and I feel very much a stranger there and that’s not a great thing.
“Ireland has changed so much in the years since I lived there so it would be nice to go and explore it a bit more. I’ve never worked as an actress in Ireland and it would be lovely at some point to find a project there.”
Caitriona’s rise to stardom began with a chance encounter outside the Swan Centre in Dublin’s Rathmines where she was scouted by a talent agent.
The former model famously walked the Victoria’s Secret runway and also worked for Missoni, Oscar de la Renta and Dolce and Gabbana among others.
Since switching to acting full-time, she has worked on major movies with George Clooney, Matt Damon, Sylvester Stallone, Christian Bale and Julia Roberts.
She is best-known for her starring role as Claire Fraser in Outlander. This season she also got a producer credit.
Fans of the books and TV show are known to be a pretty obsessive lot and busloads of them have turned up at the set multiple times, bringing lots of gifts and treats for the cast and crew.
The relationship between Caitriona’s onscreen
character and her co-star Sam Heughan has had fans wishing the two would also get together in real life.
They are very close friends which is lucky, given how intimate they frequently have to be onscreen.
Caitriona said: “This is our fifth season and we’re all contracted for several more.
“Six-and-a-half years ago Sam and I became friends and we made a very conscious decision in the very beginning that we were the only two people who would understand each other’s experiences and that we would have each other’s backs throughout.
“We knew we had to stick together as a team and we have done that.
“My husband has known Sam since we started dating and he understands the situation very well.
“I try not to read too much of the fan whispering and all of that stuff.
“It’s important to me that people in your life who are not part of your work are not harmed by your job and what people say about you.”
I hesitated because there are some inaccuracies but what the heck, I love that Cait and Tony's wedding and marriage is being posted about again. AND the most salient part is Cait mentioning her husband and Sam in the same sentence IOW, for the slow ones, Sam is not her husband, Tony is. Doh. ❤
