Obviously Together

Dear (returning) Spring Morning in the Park Anon,

I have been sitting on your submission since exactly...

I have nothing to add to it, except your returning submission, which I think is so damn satisfying and comforting. I will black out the geotagging reference, though, for reasons I do hope everyone will understand easily:

And then I was watching something molto divertente on RAI 1, was very well disposed and decided, on a whim, to publish it. What the hell.

HORRIBLE HISTORIES - My Favourite Joke Per Episode

BONUS:

I've been going through all posts from last night and thank you to everyone who contributed and shared pics and short clips... Once again it's amazing how many skilful women we have on our side of the fandom.

Since we had some hard times lately, I've decided not to dissect every second of last night's event, dwell on the weird and awkward moments, especially since one moment caught my eye and stood out.

It's the part of the panel where wifey needed to say a few words about the real man in her life, her calm center, her biggest supporter, her partner on and off-screen (thank you @caitsamuniverse for all your posts today) and almost immediately it took me back to when they started this OL journey, some of the first interviews where Cait praised Sam. Not so much for the praise itself but that moment from last night, as brief as it was, felt like I was watching them... She was soft and emotional and he was his usual cheeky self and it was so wonderful to see that.

Putting aside another shot in the mist from her glam squad, putting aside cringy questions from the red carpet or the fact that they seemed awkward (putting all emphasis on seemed), for that brief moment (aside from the photos that a lot of you posted of SC together) this was one palpable moment in time, after waiting so long to see them in the same place together, where they were completely and truly them. Since we did wait so long and we finally saw them together, in person, let's just focus on the good and there really were good moments.

So, I made a short video of what I saw and of what it reminded me of. The present and the past, almost 10 years in between those moments and nothing has changed. And that warms my heart and I guess that's all we wanted. To see them and to see they are still THEM. AND THEY ARE.

I hope you'll enjoy my little montage. 😊🥰💙💚

SIS deleted this video from the Internet when they claimed they didn't believe in Heughan babies anymore. The babies do exist. This video was made sometime after Boo 1 was born.

I'm tagging a few other bloggers whom I think will appreciate this.

SC’s use of a trusted fan group as an inside propaganda arm was to influence thinking and placate shippers while their false narratives and dodgy actions were in play imo. Simple as that. The less we saw the real game and how dodgy it was the better. The less shock and outrage the better.

SIS prior to the deal were innocent fun, in love with the love of SC, now they are the manipulators of women..feeding whatever lies they can think up to protect SC’s image while they add to the Tait narrative. Of course, they play it so they look genuine at the same time in true Goebbels fashion. Business is business and they don’t want to lose membership.

But the tangled web, the interdependence between SC and SIS seems a bit toxic now imo. It was bound to happen when one’s PR outcomes don’t meet the expectations of the other or when one’s actions exceeds all acceptable limits of the other. The manipulated become the manipulators in a cycle of disappointment after disappointment.

How ironic that it was SIS who broadcast Cait’s first pregnancy on YouTube (with 137,000 views last count) all those years ago. Their ‘greatest regret’ they said. Why? Because they entered a deal and suddenly knew Cait’s plan to protect the Fantasy Man, a fandom cash-in and her ACTing with a fake Tait engagement, marriage and ‘first baby’ to doubled as PR for herself may not work. These YouTube videos affected any such plan and made changing the story and manipulating their members difficult. The videos needed to go...shame the internet is forever.

The farce has become destructive and messy for both SC and SIS now imo. It’s sad to watch these videos of Cait’s first pregnancy and a disgrace that this child turned 5 in July this year and is still hidden.

@diggsydogsquee 👏

But since I was invited to leave the group I don’t know what could’ve happened. Just speculating, I don’t think they have inside info. It’s just too many people changing opinions too often.

And that’s why I gave up on trying to understand them. Both SIS and SC. They’re all a mess. And my life was miserable by that point.

These last 3 years I’ve been just watching from afar, sometimes engaging and commenting about, but never letting this fucking narrative suck and fuck my life again. There’s no point.
