  Is there evidence that that’s actually what happens and not just e.g. spontaneous remission? But even if it’s true, if a drug works as well as placebo then we usually conclude that it doesn’t work.

  Also, people who know that someone else is praying for them actually have worse outcomes according to one of the most comprehensive studies ever done on this.

  That’s not how evolution works. Today’s horseshoe crabs may look very similar to their ancestors hundreds of millions of years ago, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t evolve. I know it’s just a meme and not that serious, but misconceptions about evolution seem to be very common and I think that’s a shame.

  It’s absolutely not the same thing. I used to play a lot as a kid (still do) and I have no problem with today’s kids doing the same. But I want them to be able to enjoy games without constantly being manipulated into spending as much money as possible.

  And it’s not just about kids either, I think these predatory tactics affect adults too.

  It’s not a moral panic, the problem is capitalism.

  I think it’s a cool idea but the intermission tracks are just so boring to me.

  First time seeing this but you got me, now I really want to press that button. Why am I so easily manipulated?
