    I like to think the gun issue is a side effect of a bigger issue and that bigger issue the that Americas lifestyle and culture is or has become so bullshit and fake so people flip out and do stupid shit, or worse do stupid shit just to feel something in country that systematically makes people feel worthless and soulless.

    “Tylenol, the thing that you take when they won’t let you take anything that works. It’s never ‘they gave me Tylenol!,’ it’s all they gave me was fucking Tylenol.”

      I remember growing up I had headaches weekly for a few years, Tylenol did shit for it. I mostly take it now just to say I tried to take something for a headache and can bitch about it. Cause if you don’t try you can’t complain honestly (least my opinion, mean I understand if nothing is acceptable for people)

      It actually works better in my older years than it used to, well sometimes so seems worthwhile to try if needed. Sometime it’s ibuprofen that works and probably more than I’d like it’s neither.

    Autism is very much genetic. Autistic people suffer greater sensitivity to pain. Paracetamol consumption during pregnancy doesn’t cause autism, chances are, Autism causes greater consumption of paracetamol.

      til. i wonder if it has to do with their senses already being overloaded so it’s harder to push pain out of focus.

        Quite possible. If you’ve already got problems coping with regular stimuli it’s reasonable that you’d have a harder time coping with pain stimuli too. Their pain receptors could be more sensitive than others or any number of other explanations.

      Yup. Unless Tylenol and vaccines can time travel and edit human DNA they are not the cause. (of they could do all that, we have way bigger issues to deal with.) The only difference now is diagnosis and we’re not leaving “imperfect” children to die in the woods.

      If anything, they could have used his death as a catalyst to push more gun control as an easy out for being so against it… but no they did the other thing instead

        They don’t think they can properly rig the midterms. Ai isn’t panning out like they wanted. Still gotta appease the crazy gun owners. And playing six degrees of trans shooters still isn’t convincing anyone.

        Maybe we keep demanding the release of the Epstein Files, and then we can tell this douchebag to fuck off!

    I had heard that Barron was autistic to some degree and Trump can’t have that be seen as a deficiency on his part (though tbh I thought Barron was Melania’s tennis instructors kid.) so off we go to blame something else.

    Of course, I had also heard that Dr. Oz has a big chunk of change in some alternative medicine bullshit that says Tylenol is bad (like the horse dewormer thing for curing COVID I guess?) so they’re doing him a solid.

    Those maternal mortality rates are women being killed by their partners.

    Trump admin’s already going after foreign aid for birth control, and signaling a willingness to do so here. First thing my wife said after reading that: “A lot more pregnant women are going to be murdered.”

    I’ve done some digging and assuming they are talking about the states this is flat out not true.

    Most common by far is Cardiovascular conditions then things like infection and hemorrhaging.

    Anyone have a source that shows gun deaths being that high? I find it concerning if blatant miss info gets this many up votes without anyone fact checking

      that’s a great question.

      unfortunately the current administration has destroyed that information and fired anyone who knew it.

    I wonder how it would affect our maternal death rate compared to other nations if you were to remove homicide form the dataset. Not saying it should be removed, but we might move up a few spots. 30th place, here we come!

    They are afraid that taking tylenol to reduce your pain after being shot could influence your pregnancy.
