LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this film. Brilliant acting by all and the directing was fantastic. The stunning photography and gorgeous production design was just icing. Nearly perfect film.
How could I leave Belfast? I wouldn’t worry about it. The Irish were born for leaving; otherwise the rest of the world would have no pubs.
BELFAST (2021), dir. Kenneth Branagh
I love that all of Sam's coworkers and friends have come out to support him. We clearly do not know everything that has happened (When was he sick? Whose lives were threatened, Sam's? Caitriona's? Tony's?), but things must have gotten really bad for him to finally start blocking folks and speak out so forcefully.
I hope he takes heart from the support his fans and coworkers are giving him, even as he continues to isolate himself so far from his family and friends. (Hawaii is 11 hours behind Scotland, and is almost 7,000 miles away.) He is literally on the other side of the world from where everyone he loves live.
Loving the support and outpouring of love and kindness for Sam on Social Media today from the OL cast, friends and fans across the world. This tells me everything I need to know about the kind of man Sam is. ❤️
Sam has FINALLY spoken out against the so called fans who have HARASSED him and LIED about him and his loved ones for years! Yazzzz! 👏👏👏 He knows exactly WHO you are. "Ongoing legal reasons" Tick tock...
So…. Sam has spoken and in the surprising revelations he posted last night he mentioned a certain occupation:
PSYCHOlogist!
There’s only one PSYCHOlogist who I know of in this fandom:
Marge.
Maybe there are others but I would have thought that Marge would have posted about them long ago and questioned their “professionalism” in shipping.
So figuring the tweet was about her and what she has done:
Let Me Start With A Primer on Marge:
Marge talks through both sides of her mouth telling people that she doesn’t care about the personal lives of S&C and tells people to stop doing it. Then goes into depth about Sam COULD be Bisexual or gay (she’s posted about this several times in her blog.) etc… Marge is a walking paradox of double talk.
She loves to get others to do her dirty work for her. She lies and manipulates to get other to attack.
One of her biggest screw-ups was that she claimed a source came to her who was Sam’s friend and gave her permission to announce to the fandom that Sam and Mackenzie were split up.
Marge had previously announced their separation two other times and was proven wrong both times.
Marge took things too far and used that claim of a source to start berating her followers that her “Sam Source” didn’t like what she saw.
Marge also took a swipe at Purv suggesting that Purv should be worried about what Marge’s source was telling Sam about her.
She then took her swipe at me claiming that I wasn’t Sam’s friend because I had photos of him on my Twitter account. Then she reversed her logic and said that if I was Sam’s friend I would have more photos! - That’s the madness that’s Marge!
She also said that her Sam source told her something terrible about me that she could never repeat but she posted that she was told something just to try to damage my reputation.
When my Outlander Premiere envelope said ‘friend’ Marge came up with some bizarre excuse about why it said that and again questioned by friendship with Sam.

Amy Shiels, a long time friend of Sam and someone who received a whole heap of abuse in the early days of Outlander, reposted Sam's earlier stories with this before them.
When you cross post from Instagram, like I did here, only the first image comes across, forcing folks to click the link to see the rest. That's annoying, so here are more of my images from this past weekend's GalaxyCon in Richmond, as an FYI.
That is Michael Rosenbaum's butt, BTW. When he came down to the microphone at the end of the Q&A, he stood right next to my chair and I actually had to lean back to see his face.
I had a close up view of his very nice ass, it's a shame his jeans were so baggy, but I just had to take a photo...
Micahel is a great hugger, by the way. He wasn’t hugging others, generally.
He remembered me from when I saw him at Dragon*Con in Atlanta in 2008, I had a photo op with him and asked a question at the Q&A back then, where he teased me mercilessly. Not sure he ever actually read my reviews on Kryptonsite, but he did remember me and sincerely hugged me very affectionally the times I spoke with him.
The Con tickets, the Smallville Nights event, and the autographs with the selfies were a bit pricey, but worth it.
It was a great weekend. I didn’t know whether they are coming back this way again, and the one time I didn’t need to stay in a hotel to go to a con I needed to take advantage of that chance.
Here are some of my Smallville-related pics from @galaxyconrichmond, including the autographs and selfies… Loved the whole weekend, and I absolutely adore @themichaelrosenbaum & @tomwelling! Seriously love those guys! #instagram #smallville #tomwelling #michaelrosenbaum (at Richmond, Virginia)
