The rock seems like an asshole with a good PR team but I mostly base that on him being a whiny baby about Vin Diesel who seems kinda ok with a bad PR team, as well as crying about Dave Bautista daring to want more out of life than "Big angry dumb man used to wrestle but now same movie over and over".

John Cena seems like the best bet for us tbh. Filmed himself shopping in Chinese markets during the beginning of COVID to show "Wet markets" and the hysteria around them is literally just xenophobia for what we'd call a butcher or deli or fish market or whatever, and how it's nothing but harmful to whip ourselves up into frenzies over shit we don't understand.

That being said he also continued to put his foot on his mouth over and over again during that time by accidentally repeating silly shit or referring to Taiwan as a country, but also seemed genuine when apologizing and honest about it being a matter of him phrasing things indelicately or generalizing with terms that only made the situation worse for everyone. I dunno, this is all shit I'm pulling from several years ago memory and it seems like a fever dream. It's possible I just made it all up on the spot from delusions/dreams.

I re-watch this at least once a year religiously just because it's the best worst best good bad movie, and is so ridiculous and weirdly not all at the same time.

Nah nah, a better way to put it is """Holding both the contradictory beliefs and screaming endlessly in a time loop forever about how you're going to make them face the fucking wall for their crimes but also in this one instance of a completely different situation that is unrelated in almost every fuckin way they aren't automagically the enemy (any more than usual for being capitalist fascist pieces of shit just like yesterday when we weren't currently at 'active' war) because our even worse capitalist institutions say so while the entire world gaslights you into pretending a country that was shooting LGBT people in the street for being "removed" or whatever during their most recent coup/revolution/fascist takeover is actually the "Pro-LGBT war 'team' that you need to support by sending direct military aid today by calling the number on your screen now, that's 1800-RATHEOMARTIN" (despite all the articles and videos of their 2014-2020ish journalism literally being living proof against their current talking point and even popping up in the related articles for modern puff pieces about the new heroes-in-swastikas until you're convinced you're living in a simulation where you just loop the previous wars arguments over and over and over again every day forever.""" is what half of being a leftist actually is.

I went through the absolute fucking song and dance and being the literal luckiest person in the world to actually get diagnosed with ADHD at roughly 30 (no dox no dox), only to find out I was diagnosed while I was in foster care as a child and they just never treated it or told me when I got kicked out into the world upon hitting the magical "we no longer care lol" age. So that was neat. Got my childhood medical records to confirm (different country, never part of the country I was diagnosed in as adult records), literally wanted to stab EVERYONE.

I cannot fathom how much harder it'd be if I was AFAB or wasn't exceptionally lucky or had more complexity than 'just' ADHD.

I still drive 3 hours to see that doctor twice a year and do phone health visits the rest of the time specifically just because every other doctor I've met sees medication as "only necessary to make you more productive for your employer lol" and not maintaining your quality of life, gym and cooking habits, personal hygiene and social norms vs hyperfocus binges sessions, sleep routine, social interactions, etc. and I am fucking terrified of having to start from scratch.
