today at charlie kirks funeral trump stated that he hates his opponents and wishes the worst for them, and also stated that the cause of autism has been found

re: us pol 

@wallhackio Hm. What does he claim to be the cause of autism?

re: us pol 

@vaporeon_ it will be announced tomorrow. many people are speculating that he will claim that taking tylenol while pregnant causes autism

re: us pol 

@vaporeon_ its a painkiller similar to aspirin. Tylenol is a particularly famous brand--the actual painkiller is the wordy "acetominephen", but people just say Tylenol even when you don't buy Tylenol-brand painkillers, like how some people say Kleenex to refer to ordinary tissues

re: us pol 

@wallhackio @vaporeon_ I'm the kind of pervert who says acetaminophen constantly out loud irl

re: us pol 

@maple @wallhackio Oh! I know it by that name
Didn't know the actual chemical that it contains is called acetaminophen

re: us pol 

@vaporeon_ @wallhackio oh i mean the chemical has a different name in europe as in paracetomol instead of acetominophen. don't know any european brand names

re: us pol 

@maple @wallhackio Wait, how can a chemical have two different names? :psyduck:

It's definitely being sold as paracetamol, though

re: us pol 

@vaporeon_ @wallhackio well it was first developed in the 1800s when communication across the ocean was a lot slower so i imagine one name gained popularity here and another there

re: us pol 

@maple @wallhackio :blobcatsurprised: It's so old? I didn't know that!

re: us pol 

@wallhackio @vaporeon_ I think it's called paracetamol in europe?

re: us pol 

@onfy @vaporeon_ paracetamol is the name according to World Health Organization and acetaminophen is used by "United States, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Colombia and Venezuela"

somewhat of a point n click tangent 

@wallhackio @vaporeon_ I know about the name at all because there's a scene with heavy plot revelations in Beneath a Steel Sky (great game)... after this a character suddenly offers the protagonist some paracetamol, leading to the incredible line of "I don't want analgesic, I want answers!"
