How do I calculate if a test like this is statistically significant?

    Your null hypothesis is the thing you're trying to disprove. For example, if I wanted to run a study to asses the effect of adding a certain growth hormone to a cell culture, my null hypothesis would be "there is no effect". In your case, it would be "there is no difference in how much different things are liked". From there, you'd run your study, and do your statistical analysis, for which there are different methods based on the type of data, number of groups your comparing, sample size, etc., and I'm not a statistician so I can't say which methods are best for what you're planning.

    When it comes to p-value, to really simplify it, you can think of your p-value as the likelihood your null hypothesis is true. That's not exactly what it means, but it's an easy way to remember it.

    There was a PS2 ATV game that I loved and played a lot when I was a kid that has this song on its playlist. I must have spent hundreds of hours playing the free-roam mode, and, out of all the songs in the game, this song is the only one I remember

    A poor analogy, as it's the same as saying that I should expect a cow to grow mold because a steak will get moldly over time. That said, the conditions that allow many mushroom-bearing fungi to flourish are also ideal for mold growth, so it's not impossible to see mold on mushrooms. I've had to throw out my fair share of monotubs due to the growth of green mold

    Assuming you've exhausted common tucking tape products, I have a couple techniques that work well for me.

    Have you tried combining tucking with gaff underwear? Works well enough for me, but like any tuck, it can come undone. But the gaff can help keep things flat enough until you get a chance to re-tuck.

    For tapes, Mefix tape and 3M micropore tape are commonly used for T-taping in the foreskin restoration community, so it may be worth trying as an alternative to other tucking tapes

    I think it depends. I have three snakes, and I feel that combined they're less work than a single cat or dog. They're all in bioactive enclosures with an automatic misting system, so other than changing out the water, care just involves feeding them once a week to once every other week, reading the temps and humidity whenever I walk into the room, and occasionally handling the to inspect for potential issues
