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.

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."

Once again, it turns out that "run the country like a business" means "run the country like a dictatorship."
This, in turn, reveals how much despotism we take for granted in the economy. Capitalism has accustomed us to authoritarianism. Now our political institutions are catching up.

So, saying something that might be obvious, but bears some commentary:
Part of what makes sex-positive feminist discourse tricky is that it's one of those terms that rolls a lot of related (but not identical) positions into one word. Within it, I find three positions:
1. An advocation against things like slut-shaming and other aspects of sexual shame, specifically those targeting women
2. An advocation in favor of normalizing things like sex work
3. A rejection of the radical feminist assertion that hetero-sexual relations (at least, in our current society) are inherently oppressive
Anyway, I think part of where the challenge of this term is that different strands of feminism react to the different elements in different ways. I don't think a radfem disagrees with all the points, but they don't agree with the same ones a liberal feminist does, nor a Marxist, nor an anarcha-feminist or any other strand. I, for one, am pretty in favor of the first two, but am a touch more uncertain as to how I feel regarding the third, in that a lot of heteronormative tropes require unlearning to have healthy relationships imo.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's one of those things where people could benefit from being a bit more explicit about which aspects of it they're discussing
Then again, it's also helpful to identify with a movement, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
