@reel.takes: Replying to @Jlaugh Tom Hardy hasn’t just poured blood sweat and tears into the world of BJJ, but he’s also put his time and effort into a line of fightwear as part of his effort to mitigate any existing stigma around neurodivergence. When you pair this with his humility, Tom is the kind of person you encounter often in the world of amateur combat sports. #tomhardy #neurodivergent #bjj #celebrity #entertainment
Tom Hardy lives near my Dad. Dad had a brain infection that left him paralysed and mentally impaired (dad’s words not mine) that means he just can’t remember some things. When he had just got out of hospital and had moved to the area, Dad had a hard time buying a pint of milk in the shop and who helped him? Tom Hardy. He made Dad feel seen and that someone cared enough to help him out when he was struggling. I will always have massive respect for Tom Hardy.

Tom Hardy has also been very postive toward lgbtq community. I feel that is equally important because MMA fans can be homophobic. It's lovely to see a man comfortable with himself.

reminds me of Dave Bautista as well. Jonah Hill needs to take a hint. I've never seen a bjj player worth their salt brag about hurting people

This is the kind of non toxic masculinity that should be the gold standard.

Tom has always seemed like a good dude who’s a real good dude. Some folks act like beloved characters but their real life reflects nasty. Tom is beloved because he loves others. Obvi I don’t know him but if he sees this, I’d welcome a hug if he ever is in Seattle! 💖

I do love Tom Harry as Venom. Yea those movies are bad but he actually brings life into the character and hopefully he gets another chance to play Venom again.

I agree with you but I think the comparisons between Jonah Hills comments and Tom Hardy's comments are slightly unfair. Due to the roles they're known for I'd imagine Hardy is met with much more respect when it comes to doing a combat sport (I know people who unironically think he can fight because he played Bane) in contrast I'd imagine Jonah Hill has more of an uphill battle to be accepted with people calling him the "fat one from Superbad". I don't particularly like Hills comments and I certainly wouldn't make them myself but I feel like he's probably got a chip on his shoulder from fighting to be taken seriously.

I can't defend the Venom movies are good. But Tom’s version of Brock and Venom will always have a special place in my heart cause you can tell the actor loves the character. He's said that venom is the voice he gives his dogs if they could talk which is just delightful

He comes across as a decent person
He shows vulnerability, which I think is such an important thing for boys/ men to hear, especially as he's seen as a "tough guy"

Damn Im also AuDHD. Diagnosis brought me a lot clarity on understanding why I struggled so much in social settings. Martial arts and other sports were the few spaces it felt easier for me to form bonds with others. it’s really cool to see someone with his platform be open about it.

He has such a healthy outlook when it pertains to BJJ. He's so humble and actually competes which I dig. Johan would get folded by literal children and probably bitch about it. Love Tom Hardy. He's incredible. His mentality surrounding BJJ was exactly how I approached it. Can't wait to pick it back up again. 💕
