Frankly, it’s almost painful to remember a time when we weren’t blessed with the revolutionary concept of “Vagenda of Manocide.” For those not yet initiated, earlier this week Twitter user Matthew Foster shared a picture of a Maine gun shop’s sign, colorfully luring customers with the message below.

The Vagenda of Manocide has since rampaged all over Twitter, and someone has taken a domain name, vagendaofmanocide.com, that redirects to the donation page on Hillary Clinton’s campaign website. Whether you’re for the Hildabeast or not, I think all us ladies — excuse me, I mean members of the coven — can get behind a good vagenda. Here are some found floating around the Forward this fine summer Friday, just in time for Shabbat.

Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
, editor-in-chiefSupport our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
