Fun fact:

Paracetamol, a pain killer legal in England, is banned in the US while Acetaminophen, a pain killer legal in the US, is banned in England.

Paracetamol = Tylenol = Acetaminophen

they say that ignorance is root of all evil, better hit some books before judgement day

(i have much less tolerance for misinfo after 2020, purposeful or not)

How is this true when they are the same thing?

That doesn’t look like tablets.
