How does it work?

The event is casual. You can talk to anyone there with or without our prompt sheets, either about the month's topic or about whatever you want.
Open philosophical discussion, including for controversial topics, is welcome but be respectful. Every has had different experiences so aim to have good-faith discussions :)
If you've read/watched/heard anything related to the topic of the month, feel free to bring it in! Not necessarily physically, but you can if you want...
If not, here are some thought-provoking reads to start you off (read as many or as few as you want):
Feel free to post other recommendations (blogs, movies, tv episodes, video essays, etc.) in the comments!

Finally, Short Read Socials have a 'pay what you can' policy. They'll always be free to attend--but if you've been having a good time with us and want to pass along a couple of bucks to help cover Meetup platform costs for future events, there is a contribution bucket on the table that night and a Paypal link :)
