I think bedbugs are misunderstood.
“Don’t let the bedbugs bite! You’ll get a rash and die,” we are warned.
Funny, because I don’t think a bedbug would fancy being bitten by you, either.
Maybe they’re hungry. Maybe they’re lonely.
Maybe we just need to be more compassionate towards things we’ve heard about but don’t really understand.
This is a lot less about actual bedbugs than originally intended.
Anyhow. Good night, sleep tight, don’t let the bedbugs bite. Or do let them bite, I don’t know, it’s your life.
Or we could all stop making sweeping generalisations about large and diverse communities that cannot possibly be represented by a small minority that may not even exist at all. Maybe not all bedbugs are bad.

When you’ve been annihilated and had an allergic reaction and caught lymes disease from bed bugs you’ll realise they are vile creatures :( :(

That’s fair enough. Less literally though, it’s important that society stops placing labels on massively diverse groups because of the actions of a minority within that group.

I gathered that and I think it’s very true and agree, but just wanted to lighten the mood and point out that all bed bugs do bite haha
