What do you think of S saying he hasn’t visited US for almost 2 years in an interview with Bloomberg Businessweek? What happened to Hawaii last year? What happened to Mexico and LA just recently? Now extreme shippers are thrilled they have been right all along that all those sightings were staged to cover SC marriage and babies.

Here's the interview, Anon is referring to 👇

Anon, it seemed to me that Sam started to answer specifically to not being in New York in awhile (that's where the Bloomberg interview took place) and then he said the US. I think he was just making "interview chit chat" and not paying attention to specific dates. And also because the Covid-19 pandemic seems to have gone on for SO long, it may feel like 2 years to him, when in reality, the last time he was in NY was right before the pandemic. 👇

Then the pandemic hit and he isolated in Hawaii with Gia Marie (search G, GiaMarie, and GiaSam for all the proof)

Hawaii IS one of the 50 United States, but maybe Sam forgot since it's an island in the middle of the Pacific, and not part of the continental United States. Or he didn't want to mention it given all the hate and threats he got after Hawaiigate.

Commercial break to contemplate the pic above ☝AKA the second hottest vacation pic Sam has ever taken. The first being the Snorkelgate pic, when he was on vacation in Tulum, Mexico with Cody Kennedy. 👇

Wet, sun-kissed, wet, golden, delicious, wet vacation Sam is always a win.

But I digress...

After Hawaii, Sam went back to the UK, for a long time, and then yes, he went to Mexico...which the US has not been part of since 1848 (Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, anyone? Not sure why you threw Mexico in there, Anon). And then, Sam did go to L.A. and other parts of the US, but that wasn't until months and months in the UK.

Who knows what he was thinking, I don't think he was paying attention to exact dates. As for Extreme Shippers using Sam saying that as proof that there's been a baby cover up. How does that even make sense? What kind of dad would Sam be that he would agree to go on "staged trips" so people wouldn't know he and Cait had a baby? That would make him a bad dad. And also, there is NO WAY in hell that the indomitable Caitriona Balfe would ever allow that. Wouldn't the leads of the show about an epic couple having a baby together in real life SELL Outlander even more? There would be NO reason to hide that. It doesn't make sense because it's NOT TRUE.

But none of that matters, Anon, because TODAY at Wizard World in Chicago, Sam himself said that he hasn't seen Cait or her baby yet (at the 30 minute mark). 👇

There are only two choices: Sam is telling the truth and this means he's not with Cait romantically, therefore not the father of her baby, therefore hasn't seen them yet. OR Sam is a terrible dad who is willing to leave his kid and the mother of his kid to travel all over the place to hide the truth from fans for reasons so convoluted they are literally making my brain hurt right now.

I gotta go lie down. This fucking fandom is exhausting.

Everyone in the fandom talking to one another back in March about wtf is going on 🍍

Everyone by mid-April.

PSA: Just got this in DM.

This troll who THREATENED Gia 👇

Changed her name from sexy_maleficent to this 👇

We've got our eyes on you, trolls. This isn't 2014, you're not getting away with it this time.

[p-redux]

For those keeping track...my work day is done, it's 11:15 PM L. A. time and I'm about to go to bed. And I just got these in DM...

Looks like the trolls are out in full force on Gia's latest pic again. Some known ones, like Leslie Chambers, and other known Extreme Shippers who are too dumb or too arrogant to not use their real names. BUT Gia's friends are not having it and are fighting back. And I'm here for it. 😎👊 You go, ladies!

BTW, Gia explained why her hair is long again. For those who don't know, you can get professional extensions, or there are clip in ones you can add yourself. Now you know. 🤗

I still can't believe that after Sam said he is taking legal action against the harassers, that some of these dopes STILL harass and do it using their RL accounts with their FULL NAMES and pictures. 🤦‍♀️

You are actually wrong. Gia's post was from her friend's apartment. It wasn't a filter.

It appears you’re right, Anon. And I was wrong. Seeee, I do admit when I’m wrong. ANOTHER Extreme Shipper myth and lie about me debunked. 

Anyhoo, I’m not going to post any of the identifying info, but from what I’ve seen, Gia’s friend was in Hawaii for a bikini modeling photoshoot aka WORK, not on vacation. We know Gia also WORKS doing modeling and doing make-up. Maybe she was also part of the photoshoot. So, before haters vilify Gia again, she may have actually been helping to contribute in BOOSTING the ECONOMY. Before we judge anyone, let’s try to get all the FACTS first. Please and thank you.

Guess now we know what kind of of birthday cake Sam had for his 40th! Seems carrot cake is very a propos since Gia has red hair and Sam plays a ginger on TV. 🥕🎂❤

Happy birthday, Sam!

From Anons...

See, Anons, if I hadn’t been here for over 5 years and seen the same thing play out over and over again, I may have given credence to what you’re trying to sell me. But I HAVE been here over years and KNOW FOR SURE that the ones who get this outraged by Sam’s “behavior” as it relates to women he dates are Extreme Shippers, ex-Extreme Shippers, Regular Shippers, Closet Shippers, and what I call Shipper-Sympathizers. Why do I say this?

Because back in the day, when there was the outrage over Amy Shiels, and then Cody Kennedy, I was still a shipper. And I was one of the ones who treated them horribly and harassed them, and I saw what sides people fell into (I’ve since apologized directly to them for my bad behavior). There was the Shipper side who was PISSED at Sam for not frolicking in pools and on the beach with Cait, and showed public HATE towards the non-Caits. There were the Mean Girls who hung out with us, who weren’t necessarily Shippers, but they were our friends aka Shipper Sympathizers, and they got sick pleasure out of trolling just for the sake of trolling. AND then separately, there were the Super Fans. The ones who had been book fans and then became Outlander TV show fans, and they were appalled at Shipper, Mean Girl, and Shipper Sympathizer behavior. There were also the Regular Fans who may or may not have read the books, but were mostly TV show fans, but were not Shippers. The latter two categories: Super Fans and Regular Fans did not get involved in talking about Sam or Cait’s personal lives and looked down on those who did. 

Those categories have not changed much in 5 years. I can assure you that Super Fans and Regular fans are not spending their time tagging Sam directly to scold him about being in Hawaii. They don’t focus on Sam’s personal life, they’re not invested in it, therefore nothing he does in that regard “disappoints” them. They’re about the books, the show, the charities, and Sam’s other endeavors. As long as Sam fulfills his obligations to those, they don’t care what he’s doing on his off time. Are there Super Fans and Regular Fans who have heard about Sam being in Hawaii with Gia and maybe thought he could have made a different choice? Sure. BUT the difference is they are NOT tagging Sam or Gia complaining to them directly, or whining about it all over social media. And they are certainly NOT creating hate sock troll accounts to hate on Sam and Gia. That category is reserved solely for Extreme Shippers. The ones who PUBLICLY proclaim that their ship is still sailing and Sam and Cait are secretly together are just fronting for their back alley alter egos who reside as hate sock troll accounts on Instagram and Tumblr. Kim the Flutist is a perfect example of this duplicity. On her regular Flutist account, she’s all love and light and support for both Cait and Sam, despite now being blocked by both of them. But in the dirty back alleys of Instagram slums, she herself has admitted, she resides there as Outlanderlover2013, and used to be fameho_ who HATED HEAVILY on Sam’s ex, Mackenzie Mauzy. And it’s pretty clear she’s at least one of the current Gia hate accounts on IG. That’s what’s so sick about ES. They can act all sweet and normal to people’s faces, but their true angry, miserable selves come out via their other social media personas.

So, you can keep coming back sending me these types of Anon Asks trying to convince me that Sam’s “really done it this time” because now it’s not just Extreme Shippers who are angry at Sam, and therefore trying to legitimize the outrage, but I’m not buying the manure you’re selling. Because I know what’s what and who’s who. And the what’s what and who’s who is that ONLY shippers and anyone related to them get this riled up and hateful over how and with whom Sam spends his off time. I looked at the accounts of the people complaining to Sam and there is NOT ONE that is not in some way related with shippers. Not one. 

I would bet good money if it had been Sam and Cait who had holed up together in Hawaii during the quarantine, all these faux outragers would be sending them messages of support “you made the right choice not to take a long flight back to the UK, so wise of youuuuuu.” And shipping them food, embroidered blankets, pillows, homemade masks, etc, etc, etc. That’s all she wrote, folks. TRUTH and FACTS. Simple as that. 

PS. As for Sam, he survived The Barbie Wars, Parisgate, Snorkelgate, Countergate, Kitchengate, Capgate, Fistbumpgate, Handgate, Baseballgamegate,Lemongate, Coffeegate, Tunagate, assorted other Gates I can’t remember... he’ll survive Hawaiigate, and come out even better on the other side. Because the MAJORITY of fans can see that the good outweighs the bad--no one stays mad for long at Samshine. He was born under a special star. And that’s just the way it is. No.Matter.What.The.Haters.Do.
