I am sure, that this is not a pure Poisson! Huge overdispersion! You get inflated confidence intervals! (although, the point estimates of the regression coefficients stay the same) Try to look for the causes of overdispersion! It may be geteroscedastisity? What is the nature of the response, is

Hello, I have a question about modelling via glm. I have a dataset (see dput) that looks like as if it where poisson distributed (actually I would appreciate that) but it isnt because mean unequals var. mean (x) [1] 901.7827 var (x) [1] 132439.3 Anyway, I tried to model it via poisson and
