Are we all still breathing?! I'm still trying to recover from Sam Heughan's girlfriend, Steph Bullock posting a birthday pic collage, but I wanted to do this separate post to highlight each pic!

First, a reminder of this very sweet and romantic pic collage and birthday message Steph made for Sam. A previous source sent it to me and said I could share it. 👇

Before I post each pic individually, indulge me in some debunking of SamCait shipper lies. There's nothing that I relish more than PROVING shippers wrong. A few weeks ago, I posted this screenshot of Sam holding his cell phone and you can see his cell phone screensaver. 👇

Close up. 👇

Pic rotated to see it better. 👇

The sane part of the fandom aka us, knew that it was a pic of Sam and Steph at Rik Rankin's wedding last July. The insane part of the fandom aka shippers, said it was a pic of Sam and Caitriona Balfe. Hahaha. 🤭 Um, yeah, nope. Shippers tried to say it couldn't be Steph because the dress she wore to Rik's wedding had straps and the cell phone pic looked like the dress was strapless, or very thin straps like what Cait wore...

Weelllll, here is PROOF POSITIVE that Sam's cell phone screensaver is indeed of him and Steph. 👇 And the reason the dress looked strapless was because Steph was wearing a light colored bolero jacket. Case closed, Edith. 🤗

And LOOK, they're holding hands! 😍 👇

You guys, how cute is it that Sam has them as his cell phone screensaver?! The man IS IN LOVE. ❣️

Now, let's check out the other pics separately and in more detail.

Sam and Steph KISSING at Rik Rankin and Sammie Russell's wedding July 2025. 👇 😘

I know some people are wondering how long they'd been dating at the time of Rik's wedding if they are already kissing and he took her as his date. BUT, remember I told you guys sources told me that Sam and Steph have known each other for many years. They were each living their lives separately, had relationships with other people, and then when the timing was finally right for them to be a couple, it makes sense that they didn't waste any time. Life is precious and short and they both know that. Kind of the stuff that epic love stories are made of...that's why it's ironic that the shippers who say they are all about epic love, have always focused on the wrong things. Anyhooo...

Sam and Steph cuddled together and her young daughter is also in the pic, you can see the top of the little girl's blonde hair at the bottom of the pic. 👇So adorable!

The trio going on a ski vacation together. And look at Sam's arm around Steph's daughter. 👇 You can see his ski glove on her arm. It's lovely to see how much Sam has integrated her into his life. Their smiles! 💓😍

For those saying this may have been as early as January 2025 when Sam posted he went skiing...I don't know, most people use the same snow gear unless they are super frequent skiers. And even if that is when they went, like I said Sam and Steph have known each other for years. I know Steph's second husband died August 2024. So what? Grief is personal and I'm not going to begrudge anyone how they grieve. If it was as early as January 2025, like I said, Steph of all people knows too well how precious and short life is, and maybe she and Sam didn't want to wait longer to be with each other. I don't know that for sure, but I'm not going to judge them. What's important is HOW HAPPY they are. And I'm sure Eoin would want Steph to be happy. Regardless, let's not make assumptions as to when the relationship turned romantic--let's simply focus on the here and now, and the here and now is the happiest Sam I've ever seen. People at Landcon said he was glowing and giddy.

And lastly, Sam and Steph WERE INDEED in Paris together! 👇💘 The forehead kiss is the sweetest thing ever! Sam, you romantic man, you! *sigh*

So, that's all for now, peeps. I cannot wait to see what's next for #stepham. 💘💝💖💗💓💞💕💟❣️

PS. As always, negative comments will be deleted and you'll be blocked. And please don't post Steph's daughter's name in your comments or I'll delete it. Thanks.

SQUEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Not OT7 Enough

I suppose a lot of us were far too naïve to think things would actually change once the members finished their military service. Maybe we were too optimistic, thinking the fandom would clean itself up, that the rubbish would finally be taken out, that whoever stayed behind would be the real fans, the ones who truly respected every single member of the group.

But unfortunately, that’s not what happened. Or at least, it’s not what happened when it comes to Jimin. Surprised? I’m not. Not entirely. But it still makes me sad. It hurts to see that nothing has really changed. In fact, it’s worse now. It’s gone beyond just being an online issue, where people can hide behind a screen and say whatever stupid thing they want. It’s starting to spill into real life. And that’s terrifying.

And you know what? I blame the so-called OT7 fans. They’re the ones responsible for this. They’re the ones who let it happen. They’re the ones who keep letting it happen. Because they never did anything. They still haven’t done anything. And until that changes, nothing else will.

Not when it comes to Jimin.

They still believe, or they just keep pretending, that this isn’t a serious issue. That the haters, the people who genuinely despise Jimin, are simply shippers being weird. And honestly, that’s absolute nonsense. The people who think like that, or worse, say those things out loud, are a huge part of the problem. They are the problem. Not the shippers, not even the haters entirely, but the so-called fans who sit there and do nothing while all this happens. The ones who’ve allowed this group of people to grow and take up so much space, to gain so much power within the fandom. The power they use for one thing only: hating Jimin. Because let’s be honest, they don’t use that power for anything else. Not to support their supposed faves, not to boost charts, not to do anything remotely positive. They only use it to tear someone down. And that someone is always Jimin. It’s pathetic. It’s disgusting. It’s infuriating to watch the same thing happen again and again. The same cycle is repeating itself endlessly.

Every single time there’s drama or negativity around one of the members, it always ends up being Jimin who gets dragged into it. Always. Especially when it’s about Jungkook or Taehyung. Every damn time. And we really need to talk about that. I’m not blaming Jungkook or Taehyung; they’ve got nothing to do with it, but I am blaming the people who claim to be their fans. Because the ones doing this are always the same people. They’re the ones who say they’re a fan of one of those two, or even worse, they call themselves fans of the ship involving them.

And you know what’s worse? Everyone sees it. Everyone knows it’s happening, but they act like it’s not real. Like it’s just shippers’ drama or people being dramatic online. No. It’s not. It’s bullying. It’s targeted hate. And it’s been going on for years. And the fact that people just watch it happen, say nothing, and even justify it, says everything about what this fandom has turned into.

This fandom is hypocritical. It’s dishonest. It’s rotten at the core. People talk about love and unity and supporting all seven, but when it comes down to it, they only care about some of the members, and even then, they only care about their own little delusions. Everything else is expendable to them. They don’t want peace; they want control. They want to decide who gets love and who gets hate.

You all claim to support all seven members, but you do absolutely nothing when it comes to defending Jimin. You don’t say a word on your socials, you don’t speak up, and it’s even worse when you’re running big fan accounts. If you have a large platform and you’re not calling out the treatment Jimin gets almost every single day from a group of people in this fandom, then you’re part of the problem. Staying silent is part of the problem. Not saying enough is part of the problem. If you stay quiet, you’re still part of it. Silence makes you complicit. Pretending it’s not your issue doesn’t absolve you. Not doing enough, not saying enough, not caring enough, all of it feeds the same cycle.

How is it even possible that between yesterday and today, I’ve already seen at least two big pro-Jimin and pro-Jikook accounts suspended on Twitter? Why? Because they were reporting that insane woman who literally went all the way to Korea just to spread hate at Jimin’s dad’s café. And I haven’t seen a single major BTS account - NONE - speaking up about it. Not one.

At least not on my timeline. Maybe they exist, and if they do, please send me the link, because I’ve seen nothing. Nothing. The only people I’ve seen talking about it are Jikookers and Jimin-focused fans, the ones who are actually doing something, reporting, speaking out, trying to stop this madness.

Meanwhile, the big BTS fan accounts, the ones who claim to protect the group, have stayed silent. Completely silent. And that says a lot. Actually, no, it doesn’t just say a lot. It says everything.

You know how so many fans love to guilt-trip others for not buying enough albums, not streaming enough, not watching music videos as much as they “should”? They act as if you don’t do all that, you’re a bad fan, a fake fan, someone who doesn’t really care. They treat being a fan like it’s a full-time job. Well, those same people should be the first ones to speak up, to complain, to call things out when one of the members they supposedly support is being treated horribly online. They should be the first to reject, to kick out the ones spreading hate in the fandom.

But they don’t. Oh sorry, correction, they don’t when it’s about Jimin.

When it’s about Jimin, suddenly you only read: it’s “just shippers,” or “it’s not that deep,” or “he’s not even online, he’s not seeing any of it.” When it’s about Jimin, it’s always “calm down,” “don’t overreact,” “don’t overanalyse.” When it’s about Jimin, it’s always “oh, but he’s such a good person, he’d understand if another member won this or got that.”

When it’s about Jimin, it’s always excuses. Always minimising. Always silence. When it’s about Jimin, people suddenly want to be peaceful, mature, quiet and rational. But when it’s about another member? All bets are off. It’s chaos. It’s outrage. It’s hashtags and mass reports and articles written about it within hours. But not for Jimin. Never for Jimin.

When it’s about Jimin, everything goes quiet. That’s when big accounts suddenly decide to “take a break.” That’s when some of them mysteriously “get sick” or “need to focus on their mental health.” That’s when they vanish. Every. Single. Time. When it’s Jimin, there’s always a but. There’s always a pause. There’s always silence.

But not from the Jikookers. Not from the actual Jimin fans. Not from the people who genuinely care about him and about the group. Because we’re still here. We’re still speaking up. And yes, that includes Jimin fans who also love the group. That includes Jikookers who defend Jimin and also support everyone else. Because those people, we are the real fans. Maybe we don’t buy a million albums, maybe we’re not streaming robots, but we defend Jimin online, we protect him, we protect the others too, as best as we can.

That, that, is what being a real fan actually means. And the rest of you? Honestly, you can fuck right off.

The reality is ugly. The fandom has become taekooker. That’s the truth, as simple and as ugly as it is. It’s full of people who pretend to care about the group but spend their time spreading hate towards Jimin. And it’s not just sad anymore, it’s revolting. Because they’ve made this environment so toxic, so unbearable, that it’s no longer fun to be here. You can’t even enjoy being a fan without seeing some ridiculous post dragging Jimin for absolutely nothing.

The problem isn’t being a fan of Taehyung and Jungkook or being fan of the ship. That’s not the issue. The problem is that those shippers are absolutely vile. They’re disgusting. Some of the worst people I’ve ever seen online. Their favourite target is always Jimin. For them, it’s not about enjoying their ship, or having fun with whatever they imagine or create. No. For them, the most important thing is hating Jimin. Saying awful things about him. Making things up about him. Insulting him at every possible moment.

Being a Taekooker isn’t about loving Jungkook and Taehyung. It’s about hating Jimin. And that’s the problem.

So yeah, I’m angry. Because it keeps happening. Because no one with any real influence ever calls it out. Because everyone prefers to pretend it’s not that deep. But it is that deep. It’s cruel. And it’s exhausting to see the same people being protected while Jimin is constantly treated as the scapegoat.

And until people stop pretending, until they admit what’s really happening, nothing will ever change.
