Once again, we had awful carpenter ants in the house I grew up in and have clear memories of my dad complaining about “vunsen” plural of bugs. We lived in a woodsy area, it was a constant battle.
all those little jokes about how "vance" actually kind of looks like the yiddish word for bedbug (vants, װאַנץ) have now brought us to the weirdest game of telephone

My 13 year old had an idea to take all the advent calendar ducks from last year and line them up in our front window. It’s hard to take a good photo of it but it makes me so happy to see them all again 😄

Really cannot stress enough that if you start from the assumption that no one deserves to be raped then you don’t have to highlight the specific vulnerabilities of particular survivors in order to get people on board with the fact that their violation was a bad thing
