No it's not... Because we know what a cellphone is.

In star trek they called it tapes because they didn't know what they would be called in the future.

Moreover, it's called a cellphone as a colloquial term. They're correct nomenclature is "smartphone".

Parasite.

It was a bad movie with no clear theme or message. It felt like it didn't know what it wanted to be comedy drama, thriller or horror.

I felt like shit walking out of the theater.

In the Bible he is beyond human emotions. Even though he is portrayed as having human emotions in many instances such as in the garden of Eden or Job.

It's a contradiction of course as the Bible is caulk full of them.

Remember the Bible was written by humans who cannot fathom the mind of such a character as God. At least in the Bible. So they imbue him with the emotions they feel themselves not knowing any better and hoping the illiterate masses will simply believe the scripture wholesale. Which they did and do.

My friend started smoking after quiting because he started vaping... So there's always that.

My girlfriend and my mom hate each other for no reason. I'm going to spend the holidays with my girlfriend because... Well y'all get it. Right?

I'm just saying I'm not lonely... But at what cost! AT WHAT COST!

I downvoted this because it's a little too on the nose but I wanted to upvote it.

I think what people generally want is not reddit. The mods in reddit have almost no accountability from admin.

Oftentimes comments are removed just because a mod doesn't agree or like the content.

I was banned from r/Ukraine simply for saying we shouldn't demonize the entire population of Russia for the actions of their government. I later argued with the mod through their "arbitration process" and he would not unban me. (What really hurt is that I'm Ukrainian. It was an improvement sub for me)

No one wants that! Please don't let that happen here!

“Racial isolation” itself is not a harm; only state-enforced segregation is. After all, if separation itself is a harm, and if integration therefore is the only way that Blacks can receive a proper education, then there must be something inferior about Blacks. Under this theory, segregation injures Blacks because Blacks, when left on their own, cannot achieve. To my way of thinking, that conclusion is the result of a jurisprudence based on a theory of black inferiority,” he said in 2004.

Says a well educated black man sitting on the supreme Court of the United States only because of brown v. Board.

I don't know if calling this man an Uncle Tom is appropriate so I won't. But man it sure does feel like he is.

Please! For the love of God! Get rid of tipping!

I hate tipping! As the consumer I should not be responsible for proving a living wage for someone else's employees!

Let's for a second take stock of what's happening here.

The ad revenue is falling short of the projected prediction of what it was supposed to be. As in the profit from ad revenue did not reach that arbitrary number.

Reddit is still grossly profitable.

This is the same kind of headline that says Facebook lost 11 bagillion dollars but in reality they didn't lose a dime they just didn't make as much as they wanted to.

Lemmy is getting better and better at an exponential rate. I still use Reddit but eventually I expect to fully be on Lemmy.
