Dunham rose to fame with her hit HBO series "Girls," but her recent endeavors β€” including her new, widely panned HBO series "Camping," which currently has a 31% on Rotten Tomatoes (11% viewer score), and now the Lenny Letter β€” have failed to gain traction...

Amid "rumblings" this week about freelance writers being paid "kill fees" for written pieces that haven't been published, the New York Post learned that Dunham's website "will cease operations on Friday." TheWrap confirmed that "emails circulated to contributors" confirmed that the site is shutting down this week.

Wasn't she The Voice of a Generation less than ten years ago? She was in Time's "100 Most Influential" just five years ago. And now no one wants to read her feminist website.

But she'll be back. They always come back.

Can we bring back putting them on ice floes and giving them a good push.


Or alternatively, someone mentioned burning witches again..
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Like herpes.
Herpes at least goes away and only maybe pops up periodically, and is usually only mildly irritating when it does so.
