Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

Did they have C-sections then? Cause I have a feeling either I or my mom would die in childbirth
Yes they did! There's a reason they're called caesarean sections - the concept has been around for millenia. Now, whether your mother would've survived being stitched back together after that is a WHOLE other story, and whether YOU would've survived is also a different question, but they were known.
Julius Caesar was named after the procedure (or rather, his ancestor was), so yeah.
