That's so neat; I'd never noticed that before. And the walls closing in on the stage adaptation is really clever

"12 Angry Men" (1957) is a personal favorite that I recommend to pretty much everyone. Great messages about questioning assumptions, challenging biases, understanding the limitations of evidence, acknowledging imperfections in the justice system, and the consequences thereof.
The movie is also cinematically interesting to me because it feels "small". The entire movie just about takes place in one room, and the events of the film transpire over the course of one afternoon.
I found almond milk to be a great substitute a couple of years ago when I was dieting. Particularly the 'unsweetened, vanilla' variety from Almond Breeze.
As an added bonus, it also has a much longer shelf life than regular milk.
and connect to it with an iPad that has a Jellyfin client installed?
In my experience, you don't even need the dedicated Jellyfin client. Just opening it up in a web browser works out of the box, so that's potentially one less thing to download/install/manage for the clients.
That said, I've never tried to access Jellyfin from an iPad/iPhone/Mac so it might not be as seamless as my experiences on Android/Linux based devices. But I imagine they'd be fine; just test it out before you hit the road.
I don't watch a lot of creepy/spooky stuff, so my recommendations come from a fairly limited breadth. That said, I recommend a few things that many might lump under "kid movies" (I prefer the more accurate label "family entertainment") since they tend to be perilous and unsettling without being outright violent, gory, or generally miserable.
Coraline (2009) - A young girl, dissatisfied with her home life after moving to a new town, stumbles upon a dark, parallel world. Therein, she finds solace in a parallel version of her mother who is not what she seems.
Paranorman (2012) - A young boy who can speak with the dead learns that a witch who was executed by the townspeople hundreds of years ago will soon return to seek vengeance upon them.
Over the Garden Wall (2014) - A mini-series focusing on two brothers who find themselves inexplicably lost in a forest teeming with fell beasts, witches, undead, and unlikely allies. I watch this one every year around this time. Cozy yet spooky at the same time.
That sucks man. You went the extra mile to be a good host, so you should be proud of that, regardless!
Is it "fair"? I'd say no, but the world isn't a fair place. Enormous, unscrupulous corporations are to blame for the untenable situation we collectively find ourselves in. And those corporations aren't going to be rectifying their behavior any time soon unless forced to.
That being said, asking individuals to take steps to reduce climate change isn't an unreasonable thing in my eyes. Because, until corporations are held accountable, asking individuals is the only thing that can possibly improve the situation. Even though it's like throwing a cup of water on a forest fire.
The second that Amazon, Shell, BP, ExxonMobil, Chevron, Coke, Pepsi, et al are forced to do their part, I will start throwing my trash out the window again like a proper American. Until then, I'm gonna recycle and encourage my friends and family to do so as well.
"Sons of Texas" reminded me of this tune I enjoyed a while back from Maylene and the Sons of Disaster:
The official documentation has some guides on setting it up in a few different ways, although they assume the user is decently familiar with Linux/terminal commands and such. There might be some more beginner-friendly guides out there, though.

I switched from Plex to Jellyfin a while back and I've been very happy with it.
Depends on the particular device. LDAC has been around for years and supports higher bitrates than mp3s (assuming we're putting 320kbps mp3s in the "higher quality" category)
Relevant to this idea, I use these apps to let me know when things like the International Space Station, meteor showers, aurorae, etc are visible overhead:

Would be neat if there were one unified app to track them all and send notifications

Pickles. They were too strong and sour for me. Now I love 'em.
