That notepad topper is obviously made up bs, but a funny joke, and the people who uncritically accept it as real have slipped into terminal boomer brain. You hate to see it. The rest of the story is incredible though

His excuse, of course, is that someone tattooed him against his will while he was in the hospital, I guess to frame him?

It was developed to be a non-addictive version of existing painkillers (lol), rather than a cure-all. Also, fun fact: it's sometimes still prescribed, under the name "diamorphine".

imagine paying 8 dollars so you could be Popular Online, to the guy who spent 44 billion dollars to be the Coolest and Most Popular Person Online, only to find out that there's a whole different invite-only website where the actual cool people hang out and the only reason why it's cooler is the people paying 8 dollars aren't invited lol

Fun fact: Add a couple acetyl groups to morphine (acetyl groups are like bullet trains for transporting molecules across the blood brain barrier, thus amplifying their effects) and you have diacetylmorphine or diamorphine or heroin. Whee! Aspirin is salicylic acid plus an acetyl group aka acetylsalicylic acid.

Do you think the guys who invented like, fentanyl or whatever, were stricken with a deep sense of shame on account of how many lives their product has ruined? I mean the actual lab-coat chemists making the stuff, obviously the fat cats who own the pharmaceutical companies are inhuman ghouls who don't give a poo poo about suffering.

No Dr Paul Janssen probably didn’t because he died before it hit the streets in any appreciable way. He also developed 4 different drugs that are on the WHO essential medicines list so he probably wasn’t a Sackler-type ghoul.

Fentanyl is extremely good and useful in acute care and emergency medicine. Even as a recreational drug most of the ods are people who think they're taking something else. So the people who synthesized it are probably like the Keurig guy - "wait you're doing what with it? No it's not for... God damnit you morons."

He intended them for offices so people wouldn't need to burn gas and get disposable waste cups for coffee, or like for 24h gas stations to be able to make one cup at a time and not waste massive amounts of ecologically intensive coffee. He's horrified at the amount of waste his invention inadvertently created.
