"I didn't even know I had high blood pressure," one Redditor wrote in a thread. Compared to a healthy blood pressure reading that maxes out at 120/80 mm Hg, this poster came in at 218/124, which is well above the threshold for a medical emergency.

Ohanian stepped down from Reddit's board of directors in June 2020 following the killing of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis. At the time, he wrote on Reddit that it was a "long overdue" move to "do the right thing."

While working with clients such as Premier Protein, Theralogix supplements, and New Belgium Brewing, Schuster says he typically puts 60 percent of their paid social budget toward Meta and 30 percent toward TikTok.

However, Reddit user Lejr321 believes her boyfriend has crossed that line.

According to a police document seen by BBC News, the man - who is not named in the document - shared 347 clips of nude scenes on the Reddit group he moderated, which were then viewed 4.2 million times.

A Toronto children's hospital was flooded this week with a surprise surge of thousands of dollars in donations. The unlikely source? Dodgers fans. The Dodgers the Toronto Blue Jays in a monumental World Series win last week, giving the Boys in Blue back-to-back titles. After such an upset, a rivalry between the cities seems natural.
