The feminist web site Everyday Feminism is running out of money.
<http://dailycaller.com/2017/05/13/radical-feminist-website-says-its-about-to-shut-down-admits-no-one-cares/>

| The five-year-old website, Everyday Feminism, has created an
| “Emergency May Booster Fund” to fend off “scary financial trouble
| that’s threatening to put a halt to our work — maybe even as soon
| as the end of May.”

| America “shouldn’t have to live in a world without independent
| feminist media” or “an [sic] unique, educational, inside-out
| approach to fighting everyday oppression,”

| The staff of Everyday Feminism does not detail the site’s
| financial troubles or how they began.

If I were to give them money, then I would like to know where it
is going.

Some wag opines "Saving EF would be functionally similar to
saving mosquitoes. They're shrill, annoying, and accomplishing
nothing useful."

He neglects to add that it is only the female mosquito that sucks
blood.

Mosquitos are an important source of food for some creatures.

Lots of purple martin houses down South. They eat a bunch of mosquitos
every day.

So mosqs become an important resource for purplrmartinhousebuilders.
