You are my home

Hi Anon,

I hardly use this side for political topics and I can only speak for myself. But sometimes there are things I can’t help but have to speak about, because I always think at the end of the day it makes a difference if we all are silent or whether we raise our voices. And the last week was one of this moments for me.

And unfortunately the time when this fandom was a happy and safe place are also long gone. You will also find a lot people here, who spread hate and have absolutely no empathy.

I can only tell you what I do when I have the feeling my mood is getting to gloomy. I concentrate of things in life, which make me happy, like go into nature, hike or riding my bike, read my favorite books, meet my friends and enjoy the time with my family. And sometimes I even don‘t read newspapers or don’t watch the TV news, because I have enough from the often negative reporting. And after some time, you will realize that regardless the negativity, there are so many positiv aspects in your life and most of us often tend to see them as normal and forget to take the time to enjoy them.

Even in the little things you can finde happiness, sometimes we simple forget that.

I was born and raised in a country with a very dark history and which were taught to us from an early age at school. I can remember often asking my grandfather how it could be, that so many people were susceptible to Hitler‘s polemics and lies and that nobody did anything about the Nazis atrocities. He always said, that access to news was limited and information was one-side and that you simple didn‘t notice a lot of things.

I could never imagine that in a democracy and a time with access to all forms of free information, someone would be elected who so obviously spreads lies, hatred, agitation, and has a problem with certain population groups.

The USA is my second home, my husband is American and I really hope, that the next 4 years will not divide these great people any more than it already has.

And don‘t get me wrong, this isn‘t just a problem in the USA, unfortunately it is evident all over the world.

So maybe it‘s time to wake up and not admire people, who may say what many people want to hear, but who don‘t take the truth too seriously.

Using your mind, questioning and reflecting is the only way to prevent history from repeating itself.

You know Helloween is near , when the trolls start popping up uncontrollably in your inbox.

But don‘t forget, you can play Rumpelstiltskin as long as you want, you will never get a response to such kind of messages from me.

Most people know me as a wife, mother, sister, daughter, friend and colleague. And I consider myself very lucky that those who know and love me, define me by my character, my empathy and my actions and not by any title. Therefore, I couldn't care less if an anonymous troll puts me in a “labeling pigeonhole” and pities me.

Actions always speak louder than words - in every way!

You know what has to be much harder? Not being able to suppress the need to constantly touch your co-star.

And on the other hand - with the exception of public statements - to show only minimal affection towards your husband.

Or maybe we are tired of dealing with nasty, angry and frustrated people who pop into our inbox on daily basis.

Besides that, all with SC has been said, seen and is here to read in the fandome, nothing new - it’s the same as usual, always a push and pull between shippers and haters - that’s quite boring!

I have no idea and honestly I could care less at the moment.

I always have to smile at the insinuations and breadcrumbs that are spread around here.

If I don't want to/can't talk about something (both professionally and personally), I keep completely quiet about it and don't hint that I know anything - that may have been normal in high school, but now, where‘s the point in this behavior?

I can't wait for the new episodes of Outlander. At least there are varied and exciting story developments from time to time.

The "intermission entertainment" between seasons is definitely no longer what it used to be. Just boring, no development, always the same storyboard, an endless string of the same old story - the meaning of which the individual factions of the fandom are still arguing about.

To be honest, I only reply to a small minority of anons of this type, that land in my inbox. I actually ignore most of them, but sometimes I'm just in the mood to point out their own stupidity and impertinence.

You know, there's nothing worse than a lack of sportsmanship. Greatness of character is shown in behavior - both in victory and in defeat!

Germany showed a solid performance in the tournament and the atmosphere around the country is just great.

But since you believe in Kharma so much, you probably won't be surprised if it bites you in the butt soon.

Have you ever heard that life is much funnier with a little sarcasm? Or that you shouldn't take everything so serious?

I don't see where I offended, harassed or criticized Sam. But I guess if you take everything in this fandom or what you read or see on social media at face value, then life can be pretty hard on you. That's possibly why you get satisfaction from anonymously insulting others.

From a personal purse holder for a fitness Barbie, to a stroll around town with an escort, to hugging and kissing the co-star and hugging and cuddling at a public tennis event - all within the last 6 weeks.

I can't wait to see what happens in the next episode of "The Adventures of Sam Heughan" 😂.

There are way more famous actors than Sam and Cait, like Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, Tom Holland, etc. Have you ever seen photos like this of them? Always dressed to the nines, coffee togo or shopping bag in hand, always looking straight into the camera in a random photo?

No? When we see random pictures of them, they look normal, like you and me, without make-up, unstyled and unaware of their minics.

Why is that? Because they don't do pap walks.

It has something to do with common sense. The same applies to Instagram. No one can really believe that life is always about happiness, smiling, being in love, beautiful, thin, sporty and stylish and always smiling. But a good marketing strategy is designed to give you exactly this impression.

Yes, the video is blurry and yes, it's anyone's interpretation whether she kissed him on the cheek or the lips. You can say it's a friendly hug, or an encouraging gesture, or a spontaneous reaction in a relaxed atmosphere, like with Lauren or John.

But that's not the point for me.

It's that there are countless non-blurry photos and video clips of Cait with her husband that don't come close to showing that casual affinity and relaxed interaction.

Just saying… to stick with your phrasing.

Just ask yourself one question:

There are many actors who are single, the same age as Sam and are just as, if not more, famous than he is.

Just for fun, I took a look at their Instagram a while ago. Not one of them follows as many females of the same repetitive type as Sam.

Ask yourself why? It's so easy to avoid rumors about your personal life that arise from your IG activity alone. Even the dumbest has realized that by now.

His behavior has been the same for years, nothing has changed, which tells me very clearly that IG is as much a working tool for Sam as pap pics or ridiculous tabloid articles and TV show appearances.

Thank you for your kind words Anon. I can‘t disagree with you about most parts and If you have a feeling this isn’t your funny place anymore, it is best to quit, as a lot others have over the last year.

For me, I just rolling my eyes about the stupidity of some of the latest moves and wish, they had a least handled it a little bit more professionally, but at the end of the day - who really cares?

Why do most actors who have compelling on/off screen chemistry and are rumored to be in a relationship ignore or laugh at the rumors and happenings about them, while SC has been putting on such a muppet show for years?
