They wasted Luanne on Lucky!

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!
CBS's hour long shows are all unwatchable simply because of how they look. I dunno what they do, but the people look like plastic robots and all the sets feel completely septic. No scene looks authentic, everything feels like someone quickly placed all the props in a dressed up warehouse stage right before they started shooting.

All the boomers just fuckin love CBS shows because it continues to be the most watched network on TV. I guess their formula works.

They just make plain old traditional TV-rear end TV. There's still a market for that. You know what there's not a market for? "What if popular Netflix/cable show, but dumber and cheaper and also there's no nudity and the only cusses they can say are "hell" and "drat"?"

I started writing a post about how most network television is bad but when I went to look at the current roster for CBS I saw that God Friended Me is apparently still on the air so I really don’t need to write anything else.

It's a moot poem - since it wasn't her anyway - but writing a poem is a little different than raping someone or sexual harassment. So it is literally not the same.

NBC's Thursday night lineup circa 2009-12ish was a murderers' row: Community, The Office, Parks & Rec, 30 Rock (in some order). I don't think we'll ever have that much watchable TV in one place on linear television again.

This was coincidentally when NBC was the lowest rated network on television.

A Fake Nude of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Was Debunked By Foot Fetishists

quote:

On Sunday, someone posted a photo of a woman’s legs and feet in a bathtub on one of Reddit’s most popular forums, r/Drama. The post is titled “MOMMY'S TITTIES ON THE FAUCET,” with a photo of feet in a tub from the photographer’s point of view, holding a vape pen. Overlaid on the photo is the text “alexandria ocasio-cortez.instagram.post.9-3-2016.”

The image and text aren’t new—they’ve been around in this combination since at least last month, posted to Twitter and 4chan’s /pol/ political forums, as well as a handful of other subreddits and forums, including some dedicated to revenge porn and creepshots. The conceit here is that if you zoom in to the faucet reflection, you can see the photographer’s breasts, and if you’re to believe the text on the image, that’s Ocasio-Cortez.

But the person in the photo isn’t her.

We don’t know how many people actually believed it was her in the first place, and in some of the forums where the image was posted, people were already comparing feet and questioning whether it’s really her. But we know for sure thanks to a user on a site called Wikifeet, a site devoted to foot fetish photos of celebrities and public figures. There’s a small collection of Ocasio-Cortez’s feet on the site, from photos of public appearances where she’s wearing sandals or open-toed shoes. That user cross-referenced the r/drama photo with known images of Ocasio-Cortez’s feet posted on Wikifeet and determined that they are from a different person.

“I'm a contributor to wikifeet and even I have never seen a second toe like that!” Reddit user jokes_on_you commented on the post. They then linked to a known photo of Ocasio-Cortez’s feet and implied that the feet in the r/drama post couldn’t possibly belong to her.

The photo, as well as the feet, actually belong to Sydney Leathers, a political activist and cam model who you might recall from Anthony Weiner’s sexting investigation in 2016. Leathers confirmed in a Twitter direct message that the original photograph does, in fact, belong to her and features her feet. “That pic is a few years old and now reaffirms my current stance of no longer posting feet pics unless dudes pay me for it,” Leathers told me.

Last week, a video of Ocasio-Cortez dancing in college gained viral attention after a right-wing account tried to pass off a dubbed-over clip from the incredibly wholesome video as something scandalous. They superimposed it with drums and made it a supercut of Ocasio-Cortez’s appearances in the video—making it seem like she’d been dancing alone, somewhat provocatively. It illustrated how easy it is to make a sloppy cut of something real, and place it in a new context to try to smear someone’s image.

You don’t need advanced machine learning techniques or high-tech psyop campaigns to make people believe a lie—we’re primed to fall for memes like this. At least this time, a trained eye of a foot fetishist revealed the truth.
