So she's upset that her children are being threatened with death as a result of her defending the murderer of someone else's child not being found guilty for the crime.

Oh wow, I seriously thought this was going to be about her Claire Underwood interview.

What?!? She will destroy anyone who gets in the way of her ambition. Though she has interest in certain causes and that she was raped does not justify her actions. Also your headline here calls her an antihero - correct in terms of characterization in fiction - but the link on Facebook calls her a feminist warrior…

Um, no. This "feminist warrior" is the same woman who told her previous employee she would be willing to let her unborn baby "wither and die inside of (her)" after cutting off her health insurance intentionally to deny crucial medicine so she could manipulate her into dropping her lawsuit. Claire (just like Frank)…

I started to feel sorry for him and then I remembered how much he is harassing the mother of his child and then I didn't feel quite as bad. It was still utterly inappropriate on the part of the reporter, but...well, he's a dick so I find it hard to get worked up on his behalf.

Whatever, I think he's a butthole. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/24/us/…

How about badgering him for his ridiculous MRA beliefs and his ludicrous lawsuit asserting his right to block his baby mama from making a career move to New York?

I second the rec for The Mindy Project.

Hey Mama hits me like a train every, single, time. Its like a 5 minute heart break. And I know it was originally a happy song but.... gaahhhh.

I think his mom should get most of the credit for 808s and Heartbreak.

Why? Why, why, why Jezebel? Do you WANT creepsters tracking these people down because of the drama in their family? Do you want every acquaintance who hadn't thought twice about the name to suddenly broach the topic of their parents' drama and sister's molestation? What the heck was the point of doing this?

So he is exactly like Christian Grey, except not. Ok then.

Don't worry; the judges will give her the bronze even if she finishes fourth.

Mark, this is a wonderful essay, and I'm glad someone wrote it. I especially appreciate your last paragraph. My sister died from her addictions a few months ago, and while I'm glad to see the increased conversation about addiction and relapse (though could really do without some of the harsh and judgmental comments…

Actually, I'ma let you finish.

Good essay.

For context, these are the dogs she was going to burn to death:

I can't believe I'm agreeing with Lena Dunham, but she's 100% correct. Dylan Farrow was incredibly brave to come out and say what she did. Most victims never speak up, especially when the person who assaulted them is so powerful. It's Roman Polanski all over again.

Miranda July, Carmen Esposito and Samm Levine: Nailed it.

Ugh, I got so mad at that interview this morning. It was a load of bullshit.
