Fun fact, after you have a kid with someone the mother can no longer receive organs from you, even if you were comparable previously. It's because the baby is partially composed of the fathers proteins, and although the immune system is suppressed during pregnancy, it still recognizes those proteins. So the next time it encounters them, it considers them a foreign invader and attacks them, leading to an automatic rejection of the organ.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. 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.
