I can't "blow up" an image you screenshotted from a video your sister posted on facebook and make it look any better then a pile of angry pixel garbage. I can, however, remove the pause icon from your garbage picture.

Before I saw the sub, I thought this would be cool if it were done well. My reasons are:
-
My dyslexic, ADHD niece who loves to read, this could help her enjoy a classic she wouldn't consider trying, and give her a sense of accomplishment. Instead of being restricted to simpler books.
-
Students with a different first language. My friends used cheats, coles notes and audiobooks to try to keep up in school. Books written like this would do more to help build literacy.
Macron did the Notre Dame Fire to draw attention away from the Yellow Vest Protests.

Brilliant, thank you. I enjoyed the slow build, how it could have been any bad trip until most of the way through. The reflection shooting herself really got me, and then you tied it in at the end.
I don't believe evey meetup posts pictures of their entire groups, nor do I think there's a database for that, or that, if that database existed, it would be a good tool for assessing whether or not men are more likely to be outcasts. Reddit is only one social media site, like I said, and has a shrinking market share. Whether or not other social media platforms are conducive to conversations was never my point, it was the one-sidedness of saying men are more likely to be social outcasts. I don't think looking at a few pictures of reddit meetups proves anything.
Chopped, frozen strawberries in milk. Sometimes with maple syrup. Cream if I'm feeling rich.
I looked that up and couldn't find any data on the demographics for reddit IRL meetups. But we were debating whether or not more men or women go online to find community. My point what that women don't always out themselves because of negative attention. The most recent statistics I found showed that women in the US are self reported to more likely to use social media than men. Worldwide, it varies by the platform, but the disparity is highest on Twitter, with more male users. Anecdotal evidence doesn't work when people are actively avoiding being recognized as women, and online communities can vary widely in their gender makeup.
How does one look at any group online meet-up? Is there a place where all group, online meet-ups are posted?
If outcasts are people who don't feel welcome in any irl or mainstream communities; women are just as likely to be outcasts. Women online can avoid outing themselves because even female oriented online support spaces get brigaded by men. There are a handful of female artists in my circle who identify as male online because they kept getting creepy dms. They still get them, of course, but less so. Less violent and rapey.
Who knows how many women are out there, lurking in the shadows, just trying to look at memes about linux and communism.
I've had a lot of shits in the woods and a green pinecone is a great way to wipe your butt. Ideally, you want a pinecone that's still soft but has ridges. With a firm grip on the base, you can gently drag it along your ass crack to scrape away poo matter. A nice, big wild ginger leaf and/or moss will clean up the rest. Old, open, dry cones are to be avoided, since their bits can break off and get stuck in the crack, necessitating an uncomfortable search for another pinecone.
