# Monkey patch silence_stream to be thread safe
# -> Pull request on Rails: https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/13139
# -> But this will allow us to continue to see log output when running specs
# -> It could be we just patch ActiveRecord::SessionStore that triggers the `.quietly` calls
#    on logging the `find_session_id` calls.
