Man, 90% of the time I consider watching One Piece, I see how many episodes are left (and YES, I am using One Pace, not the full thing lol) and reconsider

There's just...so much

I started watching when I was like, 13 or so and have watched on and off since, slowing down to finishing a story arc every year or so in recent times. I'm still not even halfway there, man

It's a nice show for when I don't have too much else going on (or have too much going on and want brain-off media as a break), but I don't think it ever becomes priority media for me.

Not to say it's bad or anything! I see why so many people love it so much! It's just not the sort of thing I feel a strong need to lock in on

Anyway uhhhh, Sabaody Archipelago arc? Do I watch soonish, or do I push off my OP continuation even further?

The House has passed a bill requiring teachers to out trans students who come out to them.

Profoundly evil shit.

Reminds me of this Baldwin quote:

"The paradox of education is precisely this - that as one begins to become conscious one begins to examine the society in which he is being educated."
