The informal poll results are in, & as I feared, most people are running ANOVAs in #R with functions that can give highly misleading (or flat out wrong) results. Follow along to see why using anova() and aov() is usually inadvisable & why you should be using car::Anova() 🧵

Football is an incredibly hard sport for most squid to play, owing to the size and buoyancy differential between the ball and the squid.
Thankfully, flying squid species are able to leave the water, making football a feasible activity.
