How To Find Credible Sources

How to Find Credible Sources

Look for college and university websites:

They usually have publications and online educational material that anyone can access. Look for material written by academics that are knowledgeable in their subject area and find material that is peer reviewed if possible, such as journal papers. 

Look at government websites representing government agencies (such as Statistics Canada):

You can either go directly to the websites and search for the information there, or you can use a search engine to find the information. For example, if you want to find articles on turbines from the NASA website you would enter this into Google: “site:http://www.nasa.gov turbines”. This would find turbine related webpages on the NASA website. The general format here is: “site:(website URL) (search term)”.

Search for PDF documents:

You can search for these by entering this into Google: “filetype:pdf (search term)”. But again, check the authors and see who they work for. It’s generally better to have authors who don’t have a conflict of interest, such as those who work for private companies.

If this were a normal and not-depressing situation, I would totally mess with Roman because he would have no proof it was me in the morning

Roman is now attached to me and I dont think he plans on letting go anytime soon.

And yes he is still pouting

Please stop confusing college with education. You can go to college and can still come out uneducated.

So... Hot chocolate and Sherlock?

Ugh, Remy....

What he had failed to mention was that I'd had a particularly bad day that day and couldn't sleep as a result. I had thought the rest of the household was asleep, as it was too late for even Virgil to still be awake.

Admin: hey guys a little notice for ya

Currently my wifi is out at my house, so I'm living off of data which I'm trying to save. I'm hoping itll be back on by sometime next week but honestly I dont know when itll be back.

I might go to a place with wifi to get on for a little while in the next few days, but mostly I'll be offline aside from checking in here and there.

I'll be back on soon as I can, love you guys 💜

We have calcium in our bones, iron in our veins, carbon in our souls, and nitrogen in our brains. 93 percent stardust, with souls made of flames, we are all just stars that have people names.
