Twitter advice: Don't follow Lena Dunham to Canada, or into the basement

As we’ve all learned the hard way, Lena Dunham did not follow through on her promise to move to Canada (and not Mexico) should Donald Trump win the 2016 election; no, she had “a mission to spread justice and light” that she just couldn’t pull off from an apartment in Toronto.

Dunham made it clear this week that she’s not interested in following the White House on social media, but we didn’t LOL at the mental image of following her into a dark basement, with or without a murder present.

When Twitter suggests you follow the White House and you're like "lol I'd literally rather follow a murderer into a basement"

That’s naughty and wholly uncalled for and actually elicited an LOL.

Guys, that whole thing with her sister was just “a story about being a weird 7 year old” that sent her into a rage spiral when right-wingers misinterpreted her “comic use” of the term “sexual predator.”

When Twitter suggests you follow Lena Dunham and you're like "I'd literally rather follow a sexual predator to the basement". Oh wait… https://t.co/G7SExmZofb
