If you haven’t fallen for some story in the last few months then you havn’t been on the interwebs or watching tv.
Like a Big Mac there currently is a profusion of lets just say less then helpful articles designed by escaped nazi scientists to hit that sweet endorphin spot in our little reptile brains that’s says” Hmmm. That’s exactly what I want to believe, so it must be right!” Unfortunately, reading just about articles that state exactly what you believe isn’t any better for you then eating big macs all the live long day.

This is kind of a big problem, way bigger even then a triple patty bacon burger with blue cheese dressing, cheese, supersized waffle fries and a Godzilla sized artificial ingredient shake.
The thing is if you can’t get good information, how can you figure anything out? While there is considerable stuff being done on this, (silicon valley developers are working on an app! because of course they are. ) you don’t have to wait for someone else to figure out a solution. Do your own thinking. Look stuff up-using searches such as is bengazi a scam, or pizzagate fake news would have saved some folks a world of foolishness. Ask a librarian. Ask someone that knows about the issue-think crime is on the rise? Find a local cop and ask them. It’s not hard, they are usually at the police station (or, er, a donut shop. Yes it’s a joke ha ha, but it’s also a great place to sit down out of the weather for a minute at 3 am to get paperwork done, that also has a bathroom. Which is also why you’ll also find ambulance crews there.) Use the good common sense that god gave you. If the article seems to good to be true….well. Remember that pictures and words together do not equal facts, and no matter how much you want something to be true (like santa claus) that doesn’t mean it is true.
