I mean, PvP would like to have a word.


PvP usually requires a tank and healer also

i think dnd 5e provides a good illustration of why every role matters and each is boring in its own way.


From my experience, WoW, tanks are much less useful in PvP. The name of the game in PvP is large and fast damage.

Humans know to just avoid the tank until everyone is dead, then out dps them. Tanks primarily are useful in pve because they have the ability to keep mobs pulled and not doing damage to the others.

The capuchin one stopped being "science" the exact moment the researchers started moralizing it.

How do you even "prevent any possibility of coins being traded for sex" - set up a monkey sting operation?

No idea. Maybe they decided to not accept sex money?
Definitely not something the researchers should have interfered with.


The study was on an entirely different question, of course they should have interferred and controlled.

Tbf, the given explanation doesn't make much sense. The children of the forest didn't want humans cutting down trees so they created a zombie horde? Sounds pretty ridiculous.


first men and the children fought a war

children lost the war

children create walkers as a weapon of last resort

walkers overwhelm the children AND first men, and they form an alliance to defeat them

apparently at least one of them (night king) survived north of the wall, and slowly regenerated his walker army with the babies of wildlings


I see, I can see how some of this can be grazed from the cave scenes and Bran's visions. But was there additional explanation?

This is true.

I mean, it's very clear that Walt was never actually a good guy (in the time of the show), but was simply powerless. Given power, Walt's true characteristics are born out. That was the entire point of the show.

In 2005-2006, participants were asked if they had ever used marijuana. Those who answered "yes" were considered marijuana users. Participants reported the age when they first tried marijuana and this was subtracted from their current age to calculate the duration of use.

Huh...

lmao


I didn't believe that's what they said but then I went to the methods of the original pape and that's what they wrote. However, later in the results they indicate separating out current marijuana users from past users, so my guess is that the analysis is only done on the current users, which would make it a bit more valid. Either way, the methods are written like shit.

It's important to note that no study has found it, but no study has examined it.

Mainly, large scale and longitudinal studies of transgendered individuals are very rare.

More or less, we don't really know what the causal structure underlying this increased suicide rate is.

In other words, the professor was factually correct, and the students couldn't take having their view challenged.
