“Perhaps I am pretentious in saying so, but I would like to think that I am not ‘many men’ and that I dinna necessarily place my behavior at the lowest common denominator.” Happy Birthday James Alexander Malcolm MacKenzie Fraser! ↳ May 1, 1721

Supporters. Something cool of Sam and Cait with their co-workers/friends. So far normal. But when Cait doesn't post about Sam's birthday and posts supporting Rik's new project, she knows the impact it generates "here."

This is nothing new, it's not just her who does it, Sam does it too... And no, Cait doesn't hate shippers, but I think she can't stand all this anymore (this "monster" they helped create). And at this point, I don't think she even cares anymore... Whether people here are "attacking" each other or not. 🤦🏻‍♀️😕

But you know... This crazy fandom is what they need. Aren't SC polite and kind people?They are. But wouldn't you be polite to your consumers? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Anyway, and when it comes to their public behavior, they continue to encourage hatred between groups. That's exactly what she's done now. Antis will tease shippers, shippers will be angry with Cait and will respond to antis' provocations.

Sam and Cait have been doing this for years... And that's what I talked about in my other post, nothing changes here, it's boring. Sam and Cait continue to provide material to fuel the fight between fandom groups and keep everyone hooked on this madness and on them.

If she had posted congratulations to Sam, it wouldn't have had a good response either. Antis would disdain shippers' happiness and fights would happen. Like I said Sam and Cait helped create a monster. In my opinion, Cait should stay quiet (really), or only post when it's something about her and related to work (like Sam does regularly).

Enough of encouraging hate! Enough of using discord for their own benefit, and to keep people trapped in this circus! 😠 It's easy to be nice to friends and acquaintances! Be kind to this fandom, but for real and not just when it suits you!

Happy Birthday Sam Roland Heughan, born 30th April 1980 in Balmaclellan, Dumfries and Galloway.

Sam got his name from the Lord of the Rings character Samwise Gamgee. his parents were big fans of the Tolkien books. He attended Kells Primary School in New Galloway before the family moved to Edinburgh when he was 12, he went to James Gillespie’s on the edge of the meadows before finishing his school education at the prestigious Rudolph Steiner School.

After leaving School at 18 Sam worked and travelled before returning to Scotland and enrolling in the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama, graduating in 2003.

Sam built a solid career in theatre in both Scotland and England starring in productions of Plague Over England, Macbeth, The Talented Mr. Ripley, Amphibians, and King John. He has also been featured in notable indie films, Emulsion, and Heart Of Lightness but of course it is one particular role that has catapulted him into worldwide stardom, that of Jamie Fraser in Outlander.

For those who don’t know Outlander it follows the story of Claire Randall, a married combat nurse from 1945 who finds herself hurled back in time to the 1740’s in and around the time when The Jacobites and Bonnie Prince Charlie made the final ill fated attempt to put the Stuarts back on the throne. Sam plays Claire’s “love interest” she is forced to marry. Further series are set in the US in the 1770’s, their remains a strong Scottish presence in the cast, and the show is filmed in studios in Cumbernauld. Sam has won a number of awards for the series.

In the movie To Olivia he played Hollywood star Paul Newman and in the adaptation of the Andy McNab book, SAS: Red Notice, he played SAS soldier Tom Buckingham. Oor birthdat boy also teamed up with fellow Outlander star Graham McTavish Men in Kilts: A Roadtrip with Sam and Graham. The series follows the pair as they explore their homeland delving into the culture and history of Scotland, in a light-hearted way. The second series of the show aired last year, the reviews were mainly positive. The duo are already looking at a third journey, this time to North America but that will likely involve indulging Heughan's thrill-seeking side - much to his friend's dismay

Sam also appeared in the psychological series The Couple Next Door last year, I am yet to catch this, it has average reviews on IMDB of 5.6 out of ten. Born to be Great the story of Alexander The Great's early life has been completed but is yet to recieve a release date.

According to reports Sam celebrated his birthday in Edinburgh at the weekend while also running his My Peak Challenge which included workouts, outdoor activities and a gala night with dinner and dancing. He posted on Instagram describing the event as a 'unique blend of wellness, camaraderie, celebration and more'. The peakers, as they are known has raised millions for charities including Marie Curie.

She asked forgiveness and I gave it, but the truth is I'd forgiven everything she'd done and everything she could do long before that day.

For me, that was no choice...

That was falling in LOVE. 💗

Wednesday 100: Birthday Blessings

"If I'm taking stock, I should thank you for yer part as well," Jamie says teasingly later.

Her chin on his chest: "Oh?"

"Aye. It's only luck that's kept my parts attached, but my teeth are thanks to some good advice long ago about cleanin’ them and battling scurvy." He leans close and kisses her, serious now. "And you do ken a few things about greens, but I ken that it takes something beyond a good diet to keep a body truly living — that's thanks to you too."

"You're welcome." Claire strokes his jaw. "So keep that body safe today."

Cait has been silent from SM long before her father's passing. Pretty much since she got pregnant in S6.

You're right about that Anon... And I think it's better for her to keep quiet than for another Belfast promo fiasco... It's a favor she does for herself... And she didn't help herself by being the one who, on the defensive, ends up attacking.
