Even creating them will sometimes earn you legal threats that you can't afford to respond to.

If you're not as wealthy as they are, the process is the punishment.

There are, but I detest this Canadian mindset of replacing bad with worse.

To be more precise, Shenkel's work was discredited by the collective efforts of numerous scientists studying wolf behaviour. Probably the most notable of these was David Mech. His book "The Wolf" was based on Shenkel's work, and his own research on wolves in captivity, and was really the work that popularized the "alpha" nonsense in the public mind.

After numerous studies of wolves in the wild failed to bear out these conclusions, Mech later concluded that his work was wrong, and got The Wolf removed from publication.

Yeah, the fact that this is not immediately disqualifying is insane.

Huh, my bad. For some reason I thought there was a PC port already.

It is unfathomable to me that this man wants to lead a country, but refuses to undergo even basic vetting.

I have a higher security clearance than Pollievre does, and I don't even work in any government related capacity.

I think the issue a lot of us have with this is less that he's stooping to Trump's level, and more that he's only doing it to help his own family. Abusing the office of the president is apparently fine and good if its done on behalf of someone who's name is Biden, but the rest of the planet can get fucked.

"Angry" was the charitable read. Your conveyed tone, intentional or not, was that of someone who was either talking down to their interlocutor, or frustrated that they felt they weren't being understood. I picked "angry" because if your intention was to talk down to me, that comes off so much worse for you.

Regardless, my previous point stands. I have asked a number of questions that you have answered in only the most minimal fashion possible. That is not the bahaviour of someone who is genuinely trying to engage in a learning process. You're not actually making the effort, presumably because you want me to make it all for you, for free. That's a pretty shitty way to behave, and it's a bad way to get help with anything.

Dark Tide (Warhammer 40K). The combat just flows so well, and the relentless hordes of enemies lay on the kind of pressure that forces you to use every tool in your character's arsenal to its maximum potential.

It's a little janky, and the blocky aesthetic may or may not be your thing, but it handles the idea of detective work better than any other game I've ever played. It's not just "Walk around in detective vision until you assemble enough clues for the character to tell you the solution." You have to actually think about things, examine the evidence, assemble a theory of the crime. Which is doubly impressive given that every crime is procedurally generated.
