i resent that i was on board for the like, yet jealousie is kind of bad. And then all of a sudden, i supposed to be feeling good at the thought of my partner just being with somebody else. Like, you can't sneak that agenda into your emotions. It's supposed to be a science. It supposed to be something we discover, not something thatyo invent. I wong to label it something ive Decided what.

David and Tamler dive into the book of Ecclesiastes, an absurdist classic that is somehow also a book of the Bible. Is everything meaningless, vain, and a chasing after the wind? Are humans just the same as animals? Are wise people no better off than fools? Will God judge us after we die, rewarding the good people and punishing the shit-heels? What if there is no afterlife and this is all we get? How should we deal with our pointless, unjust existence? Plus we return to our opening-segment bible— Aeon—and talk about an argument for replacing jealousy with...wait for it…compersion.
