Skip Google for Research

As Google has worked to overtake the internet, its search algorithm has not just gotten worse.  It has been designed to prioritize advertisers and popular pages often times excluding pages and content that better matches your search terms 

As a writer in need of information for my stories, I find this unacceptable.  As a proponent of availability of information so the populace can actually educate itself, it is unforgivable.

Below is a concise list of useful research sites compiled by Edward Clark over on Facebook. I was familiar with some, but not all of these.

⁂

Google is so powerful that it “hides” other search systems from us. We just don’t know the existence of most of them. Meanwhile, there are still a huge number of excellent searchers in the world who specialize in books, science, other smart information. Keep a list of sites you never heard of.

let us take a moment to appreciate the clouds the passages of time sheltering us from a world so loud the subjects of our gaze when we're in cheerful vain the peaceful soothers of unbearable pain

I needed that today, thank you <33

"always the poet, but never the poem"

hits hard when you realise, how you portray each individual as an ethereal being. each one is a blank canvas, an incomplete cathedral waiting to be painted and built with intricate details. you look at every small thing with is invisible to eyes, that don't appreciate the beauty of nothing. your mind always making up the most beautiful poetry, with just one glance at the potential blank page.

but what you don't know that, your poetry is a direct reflection of you. your beautiful thoughts, make up for your remarkable beauty. maybe that is why poets are forever immortalized.

To anyone who finds this, here's a daily reminder that it'll work out in the best way possible- you'll make it work out <333

This makes me feel like I'm bidding goodbye to Narnia 😭🥺

It's gorgeous- whoever wrote this thank you for sharing it~~ 💕✨

We skipped around the snow

And danced with the snowdragon

We snuggled around the fire

And gazed across the ocean

Of misty blue eyes

And whispered goodbyes
