: ghostling joined us one week ago, yesterday, + she is perfect.
Ghost, a white woman with very dark brown, shaggy hair, blue eyes, and a small rose gold right nostril ring, wearing an aubergine tank, looks into the camera with a small, contented smile. She holds a white, newborn baby on her chest with her hand gently obscuring the baby’s face. She wears two small gold rings on her ring finger.

The thing is that no one is actually doing this, they are making a joke. Tylenol is poisonous if you take too much of it, and you know who knows that better than anyone? *Pregnant women, who aren't allowed to take anything else*
