If you think you're too small to make a difference, try sleeping with a mosquito.

As my mother used to say, “if you think you’re too small to be effective, try sleeping w a mosquito.”

We are the mosquitos.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
