SuperPuppy

Valen.19.Argentina. (Side Blog). Basically a blog dedicated to all the puppies from the CW show Supergirl! Feel free to talk about everything. #FreeHateAndDrama, unless you say something to piss me off. (I fucking love David Harewood by the way) I'm also pretty neutral about everything and I'm just here to make dumb jokes, update a little, and have fun!

Maybe it's ending because Melissa wants to be at home more with her child?

Honestly I hope it's that otherwise I'll be pissed

[superpuppy-kara]

Why do i have the feeling that Superman starting has something to with this? Also, I've never expected Supergirl ending before Legends or The Flash.

[superpuppy-kara]

Chris Wood and Melissa Benoist are expecting their first baby!!! Congratulations to the happy couple!!!

Olympian Laurie Hernandez Shares Her Mental Health Journey - IDONTMIND - Your mind matters. Talk about it.

The “Human Emoji’s” positive persona doesn’t always come easy, but that’s not stopping her.

At only 19 years old, author, Dancing with the Stars winner, and Olympic gymnast Laurie Hernandez has accomplished an unbelievable amount in high-stress environments. All with a smile on her face. But it hasn’t always been easy.

Laurie entered the world stage during the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro with the famed U.S. ‘Final Five’ gymnastics team. She left Rio with gold and silver medals, and earned a reputation of having one of the most positive attitudes and expressive faces in gymnastics.

She’s become a symbol of optimism, determination, and kindness, and continues to inspire people across the world. And as our very first IDONTMIND Ambassador, Laurie is leading by example and opening up about her own mental health with the hope of inspiring other people to do the same.

We chatted with Laurie about overcoming her anxiety during competitions, working through depression post-Olympics, and figuring out how to take care of her mental health while in the spotlight.

So this explains why the gymnast Laurie Hernandez is always tweeting to Melissa! She is the ambassador for IDONTMIND (Chris founded this organization in case you forgot guys)

I'm sorry that I haven't been active for a long time and just came back because of this situation with Melissa but the truth is that I've been having a really hard time at college. It is just fucking depressing for me, because I've been failing exams for the entire year and it seems like I can't get anything right and my mother calling me a failure clearly isn't helping me either.

[superpuppy-kara]

I can't begin to explain how fucking pissed I am about this, especially now that I remember everyone calling Melissa a slut for dating Chris after divorcing Blake. THIS IS WHY WE DON'T TALK AND WE DON'T JUDGE WITHOUT KNOWING ANYTHING ABOUT THEIR PRIVATE LIVES!!!!!!!!!! CAN YOU HEAR ME SCREAMING!?!?

[username23345]

Everybody who called her slut, home wrecker, etc. should get on their fucking knees and apologize to her AND Chris. None of the derserved the hate they got for simply loving each other. It’s clear that they are happy and people should just fuck off and leave them alone. And if you don’t have something nice to say about her story then shut the fuck up. Don’t be an asshole like those people on Twitter.

“I choose to love. I don’t choose to minimize my life out of fear. I choose to love myself to know that love does not include violence, and to let victims know that there is a way out in which you will be protected.“ - Melissa Benoist

If you are in crisis and need assistance to find a safe way out, call the domestic violence hotline: [phone]-SAFE (7233)

[superpuppy-kara]

Despite the fact that this is a horrible situation, I would like to say how incredibly brave is Melissa Benoist for sharing her story, and thank her for it since this is really helpful to raise awareness about domestic violence.

[snowluthor]

Just thinking about how much worse things must have been for Melissa getting out of an abusive relationship only to have the demons from the fandom of her tv show actively calling her a whore, homewrecker, etc. This is why you don't say shit if you don't have the full story. You never know what someone could be going through.

Anyway I'm so proud of Melissa for speaking up and happy to hear she's finally recovering.

[hillshollow]

Can you say it louder for the people in the back?

And Chris Woods must be one hell of a guy. A few people owe him a very public apology too.

[supervalor]

Gosh I remember the dark period of time in 2017 when those antis decided how events went even without any proof of anything.

[superpuppy-kara]

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

I know no one will probably see this but honestly the song that holds a special place in my heart right now is The Man. I really want to thank you for that one @taylorswift. It sort of reminds me of all the feelings I have over trying to change things in my country. Because we are tired.

We are tired we can't walk alone without having a man following us, cat calling us or exposing himself to us.

We are tired of being afraid to get into a cab at night because the driver could kidnap, rape or tell you disgusting things just to make you uncomfortable. We literally created an app where you can call female taxi drivers because we are THAT afraid of beig alone with a man at night.

We are tired of reporting abusive men to the justice system just to realise they won't put them where they belong, in jail. And If they do, they will let them get out in two months for good behaviour (and probably end up raping and killing again).

We are tired no one believes us.

We are tired of always being blamed for it.

We are tired we always have to take care that no car slows down because someone could kidnap us.

We are tired that if that happens we would wish we were killed because it is better to be dead than being a sex slave for the rest of your life.

Thousands of women (I repeat THOUSANDS) in my country go to marches, protests, we literally scream up in the air we are tired and that enough is enough, that we can't continue living like this, but nothing changes. I think they made it quite clear they do not care about us and no matter how much we scream and get angry, they won't do anything to help.

And I am fucking tired of it.

How Argentina’s women took on blatant sexism to reach the World Cup

The team were so underfunded they did not play at all between 2015 and 2017 but next take on England in France on Friday

Argentina are essentially an amateur team and it is a small miracle they are even in France and going into their second group game, against Phil Neville’s England in Le Havre. Going back just one year, it was unclear if the team would be able to travel to France at all. Unlike the regional power that is Brazil, who can count on regular training camps and tournaments, the Argentinian women’s team has been shockingly neglected by its federation and treated with downright hostility at times. After failing to qualify for the 2015 World Cup in Canada, the Argentinian Football Association (AFA), showed little interest in having a national women’s side at all. Things got so bad that Fifa categorised the team as “unranked” due to its inactivity. The head coach was dismissed and not replaced. They played no games at all between 2015 and 2017. The players wrote a public letter complaining of the conditions they were working in. They then refused to appear for the national team again until the AFA met their demands of $8.50 (£6.70) per day for training as well as regularly scheduled matches and training staff at their disposal. That the federation refused to meet these demands, opting to play the under-23 squad against Uruguay instead, spoke volumes about the federation’s disdain for women’s football.

[ididntwearmybowtie-deactivated2]

In case any of you care, here’s why standing for women’s soccer and the World Cup is standing for women’s rights.

[whatevergym]

They forgot to mention that these women had to sleep on a bus several times because the federation would not pay for the hotel. Also, most of them have to work since they can not even pay for electricity. For example, the goalkeeper works as a cashier, takes care of her twins and also trains for the national team.

But it does not end there, another player admitted she used to dress as boy and call herself Lorenzo when she was little because where she lived there was not anyone who would teach girls to play football cause, you know only boys play football, and that there was a time when she only slept 2 hours a day because she had to work, train and take care of her children.

You all can’t even imagine how much shit these women took for doing what they love. Comments like: “football is only for men” “they must be lesbians” “they look like men” “they can not play at all, they should go back to the kitchen” “women’s football sucks” “they do not deserve to be payed the same”.

From people saying the can’t play to insulting and assuming their sexualities these girls heard and keep hearing all of it. In spite of this, they never gave up and with the new support they are getting, specially from argentinian women for this World Cup, things are changing, there’s still a lot to do, but we are definitely moving forward to the place where no girl will be insulted and mistreated for something so simple as taking part of a sport.

[superpuppy-kara]

Well Eve was definitely a plot twist

[superpuppy-kara]

I'm starting to think that maybe I shouldn't pause any episode

Chris and Melissa celebrating their engagement!
