Considering The Warm Reception The Cuscus Has Gotten Here I Have A Hunch That People Might Also Enjoy

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.

Hi! I'm doing research about Sigyn for my own pleasure and was wondering what kind of powers she might have? I think I saw somewhere that she had healing powers, but does she have others?

It depends on which Sigyn variation we are talking about. In Mythology there isn’t much info on Sigyn to begin with. However, by her kennings such as “Incantation-Fetter”, imply dealing with magic/spells. Some believe it might have to do with binding/anti-magic. As for her other kennings such as “Lady of Endurance”, and the fact that most associate Sigyn with a healing and positive energy, that is one reason she is associated with healing abilities.

However, from what I know, the thought of Sigyn being a healer started in the role playing community too. It is also some personal headcanons for others.

Now, as for Marvel Comics, they’ve hardly given her agency to begin with. She does display magical abilities such as binding Loki’s soul to armour and other things, but it isn’t too clear on the details about how far her powers go.

It’s honestly very vague, so you could practically imagine anything with that and expand upon it. 😂😂
