No disagreement there, although I also think what people feel comfortable with is a malleable thing and by implementing policies that work for everyone as well as for Christians we could improve the world a little.

Or take a selfie, that'll generate a picture of an ape!

There IS a solution to this particular problem, namely don't use schools as a vector for spreading religion.

That’s the idea. State actors can keep this up for decades while we the people end up exhausted. Stay vigilant, brother.

Also, never let your passenger put their feet up on the dashboard. Unless they want their lungs punctured by their own tibia.

Stoics recognize problems in two categories, problems you can fix and problems you can’t. In neither case anxiety adds anything to the solution.

According to legend, Alexander the Great came to visit the philosopher Diogenes of Sinope. Alexander wanted to fulfill a wish for Diogenes and asked him what he desired. As told by Diogenes Laërtius, Diogenes replied, "Stand out of my light."

One day while he was eating a frugal dish of lentils, he was challenged by the philosopher Aristippus, who, for his part, led a golden life as he was one of the king’s courtiers. Aristippus scornfully told him: “See, if you learned to crawl before the king, you wouldn’t have to settle for rubbish like this vulgar dish of lentils!” Diogenes replied: “If you’d learned to make do with lentils, you wouldn’t have to crawl before the king!”

Big dick energy. Love this guy.

Remember kids, the market does not aim to produce food but profit. If it can get you to pay for eating sawdust or forever chemicals it will and it has.

Ah yes, the market. Known for it's agile flexibilty so that it can adjust to demand at will and efficiently. I'm sure this will turn out well for everyone. By which I mean the peasants will be forced to commute to keep the status quo or they'll lose their house while governments bail out the class that took on the risk for this real estate.

Personally I decided to go the Jellyfin route, but I wanted to stop by and thank you for the effort you put into a great write-up! Bookmarked, maybe I'll try it out in the future.

That’s because it isn’t there.
