Autism
Seems RFK Jr is pushing the idea Tylenol, taken by pregnant mothers, is linked to autism. What is linked to autism, among many other factors, is illness while pregnant. Might, among other remedies, might pregnant women take to relieve symptoms? TylenAs parents with a autistic toddler, we belonged to a monthly support group moderated by a psychiatrist. He had a special needs child. One comment he made stayed with me fifty years later. He said the difference between a retarded child and an autistic child was the educational level of the parents. If the label, retarded, were still used for all development disabilities, has the overall rate of retardation changed over the years?
AI Overview
Using the outdated and offensive term "retardation" is inappropriate
. The correct term is intellectual
disability (ID). The apparent "level" of ID has changed
significantly over the past 50 years due to evolving diagnostic criteria,
improved public health, and shifts in societal trends.
I support RFK Jr’s efforts to hold pharmaceutical companies accountable. His problem, as I see it, is his only tool is a hammer and he sees every problem as a nail.
Blog comments
Reluctantly, I am now deleting blog comments that are off topic with no link to the poster. For ten or so years, none of my posts every received more than 200 views and just a handful of on topic comments. Now each post receives 3,000 ‘views’ and many off topic comments.
In no way are my scribbles on par with LL, Old AFSarge, Old NFO, BRM, LSP and others. My conclusion is someone’s AI is targeting my blog. Do I care? Not much, but it irritates me.
One of many things that
irritate me – clickbait
As always, YMMV

Half the posts on FakeBook are like that. Extremely annoying click bait presented as "news".....
I've noticed and don't bite anymore.
