Oh look, bullshit information without a source. Also correlation is not the same as causation. Hopefully this snippet is short enough for you to ingest:

The study led by Ahlqvist harnessed data from nearly 2.5 million children born in Sweden between 1995 and 2019 and — from the country’s extensive health records — data on acetaminophen prescriptions during pregnancy and on self-reported use collected by midwives, as well as whether children later received autism diagnoses.

The study showed that around 1.42% of children exposed to acetaminophen during pregnancy were autistic, compared with 1.33% of children who were not exposed ─ a “very small” difference, says Ahlqvist.

The team also compared pairs of siblings (born to the same person), in which one had been exposed to acetaminophen and one had not. Siblings share half of their genome, a similar upbringing and maternal health, so differences in autism are more likely to be due to the drug. Using this method, the researchers found no association between acetaminophen and autism — which supports the idea that links found in other studies could be explained by confounding factors.

A large, high-quality study from Japan of more than 200,000 children — also using sibling comparisons and published this year — found no link between acetaminophen use in pregnancy and autism.

Why was the Presidential Fitness Test discontinued?

In 2012, the Obama administration replaced the Presidential Fitness Test with the Presidential Youth Fitness Program to promote an overall active and healthy lifestyle rather than athleticism.

Ah, I wasn't sure if they had a built-in dark mode like on apple handhelds (it works poorly on my iPad fwiw). Yeah I prefer dark mode all the time so I don't have it alternate on a schedule. It does seem to work if I manually toggle dark mode, but maybe the issue lies with the browser recognizing when an automatic switch is made

I just use the Dark Reader extension

Remember when paranoid Android released this feature in their custom ROM 12 years ago? Pepperidge farms remembers 👴🏽

I just gave it a try and clicking on the comments for a post seems to load forever

Edit: it seems like maybe this is an issue for posts with a large number of comments?
