Their are two typs of people in the world,
Those that scream AAaaahh and those that scream Weeeeeeeee.
One that screams Aaa... when they fall to their death, before the splash.
The other scream Weeee... before they splash.
The thing about common sense, it's common...
Principles, morales or ethics aren't things that you live by, but something you die for.
If you can't say no in the face of certain doom(or believe you do), how can you expect yourself to maintain your principles in the face of opposition.
When your morales depicting your survival, knowing them, defining them, becomes vastly more important.

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.

If you can't explain your opinions, then you don't really understand your own opinion. Can you really say it's your own opinion then, or is it someone else?
We all live and die by desires. The question lies in whose desires, your own, or others?
Choose the desires you live by and will die for. Otherwise, someone else will.
It is easier to blame others than to admit your own mistakes.
But blaming others will not fix it, nor will any lesson be learned.
Amusing enough, blaming yourself for others' mistakes will not help or teach others.
Know when it's your own or others' mistakes, is something we all need to learn.
It is hard to be objective when the subject is subjective.
