Dan PortsI'd just like to remind everyone that each week approximately 23% of Americans take acetaminophen, so if it really caused autism, we'd have a way more functional train system in this country.
Jim Luther@dan I take it pretty much daily (a low dose) for arthritis pain. Most other pain relievers make my ears ring.
J.P. Stewart@dan This Is so good. Thank you.
sleepy62🍁🛠️ 🖥️ 🔬 🌞Excellent point! 😜 👏👏👏

Paracetamol has been used a lot longer in Europe than in North America.
Europe has a much better train system.
Coincidence?

@dan that's... a concerning statistic
Janis@dan I went Tylenol-free for the '82 Chicago poisoning scare. I didn't have any at that point, so I just kept not buying it, partly because it was more expensive than ibuprofen, and Costco-sized jugs.
Had an autistic kid in the aughts (now studying Molecular Engineering at UChicago).
I learned today it wasn't commercially released until 1955, so no one over 70 apparently is actually autistic. I'm not sure who Hans Asperger was studying.

Your train system needs serious attentio... oh! Look! A squirrel!

🇺🇸 🇺🇦 🇮🇱 🐧 🥦@dan Acetaminophen can kill your liver. It is also easy to overdose on as it is many different types of over the counter medicines.
Miha Markič@Methylcobalamin @dan In Slovenia you can buy as much as you want and nobody has any issues 🤷♂️
Patch You Up@Methylcobalamin @dan It can kill your liver if you are taking excessive amounts, yes. But even people with moderate cirrhosis still have enough glutathione reserves to compensate for the NAPQI produced by the 4g/day limit recommended on the bottle.
Stumpy The Mutt@Methylcobalamin @dan And drinking excessive amounts of water can kill you too. So what's your point?

@StumpyTheMutt @Methylcobalamin @dan Damn Dihydrogen-Monoxide! They put that in so many things! It's one of the ingredients in car engine coolant! They put that in our food! They give it to you at hospitals! Our children are full of this stuff!
My point is that while overdosing on water is HARD, overdosing on acetaminophen is EASY to do as it is in so many over the counter drugs.
You can take one acetaminophen drug for a headache, another for back pain and another for a sore throat. That can set you up for severe liver damage.
It has been reported on for years, so I am sure you can look something up
@Methylcobalamin @dan The actual studies conducted on this drug say otherwise. Your claims are clearly the result of your own bias. Perhaps you should follow your own advice and read some more.
@StumpyTheMutt @dan Saying it doesn't make it so. Do yourself a favor and do a web search.
@Methylcobalamin @dan you seem to be unable to one yourself.
Estarriol, Terrorist DragonIn the UK it is probably even higher, Paracetamol is the default headache, pain relief, non prescription medication.
So is his next target Ibruprofen? the most common anti inflammatory?
mklovenotcyber@dan How Americans are able to make jokes while collectively descending into darkness still baffles me. I hope I never have to experience this in my country, but I fear for the worst.
ocdtrekkie@mklovenotcyber @dan Humor is how we cope.
@mklovenotcyber @dan The phenomenon is known as "gallows humor", friend.
Andy Wootton@dan This seems a much better way of trying to get the trains to run on time than electing Nazis.
Cybarbie@woo @dan Wartime Gestapo reports, railway statistics and modern historians all show that punctuality collapsed under the Nazis. Same story in Italy which benefited from pre-fascist modernisation but suffered when thousands were dismissed for 'disloyalty'. It wasn’t that the trains were on time; it was that nobody dared report them late. The only reason to vote MAGA is if one secretly loves libs so much that one wants to force them into a joint suicide pact because you can't be them.
Unless it is expensive or only prescribed, I feel 23% is an awfully low number for a broad sprectrum anelgesic like paracetamol.
What is the US headache pill?
Nidonemo@dan HAH!!
@dan I take Tylenol every day because ibuprofen raises my already-high blood pressure. I suppose it helps me keep my Autism Super Powers(tm), which include Not Being a Fascist Idiot.
RolandOfGilead@dan but maybe acetaminophen causes stupidity, that might explain all those red hats.
Brian "bex" Exelbierd@dan where did you get that number. I’m wondering what it looks like in other countries as a comparison. Thank you
