Wonder Woman Vol.3, #28 // Wonder Woman 1984

Golden Eagle Armor: In wartime, Diana will sometimes wear a distinctive metallic suit of body armor patterned after an eagle. These shining battle armors are the emblem of the Amazon royalty. In the comics, Diana’s Gold Armor gives her the ability to fly. The armor also has superhuman durability that makes Diana impervious to bullets, explosions, and other energy attacks. Diana is given the armor when going up against her most formidable opponents.

peter p: but mr america sir, aren’t you technically only 33? are you sure you qualify for this?

steve, taking a senior citizen parking spot and claiming his 15th senior discount of the day: shut your mouth you’re like 5

broke - the team mocking steve for being ‘old’

woke - steve trying to get into a zoo for free because “fuck it i was born in 1918 I deserve the fucking seniors discount”

writemeasandwich

I mean yes sure he could just take the military discount and save just as much but it’s the principle of the thing dammit.

pool employee: sir, Mr. Captain America, this is a seniors water aerobics class.

steve: I was born in 1918 am I not a senior citizen?

exaspertated pool employee: yes, but why d-

steve: some of my friends are in this class just let me take it with them!

bucky, yelling, already in the pool: just let him in susan! you let me in!

Did you know that modern C sections were invented by African women— centuries before they were standard elsewhere?

Midwives and surgeons living around Lake Tanganyika and Lake Victoria perfected the procedure hundreds of years ago. When a baby couldn’t be delivered vaginally, these healers sedated the laboring mother using large amounts of banana wine. They tied the mother to the bed for safety, sterilized a knife using heat, and made the incision, acting quickly as a team to prevent excessive blood loss or the accidental cutting of other organs. The combination of sterile, sharp equipment and sedation made the procedure surprisingly calm and comfortable for the mother.

After the baby was delivered, antiseptic tinctures and salves were used to clean the area and stitches were applied. Women rarely developed infections, shock, or excessive blood loss after a cesarean section and the most common problem reported was that it took longer for the mother’s milk to come in (an issue that was solved with friends and relatives who would nurse the baby instead).

In Uganda, C sections were normally performed by a team of male healers, but in Tanzania and DRC, they were typically done by female midwives.

The majority of women and babies survived this, and when questioned about it by European colonists in the mid-1800s, many people in Uganda and Tanzania indicated that the procedure had been performed routinely since time immemorial.

This was at a time when Europeans had only barely started to figure out that they should wash their hands before performing surgery, when nearly half of European and US women died in childbirth, and when nearly 100% of European women died if a C section was performed.

Detailed explanations of Ugandan C-sections were published globally in scholarly journals by the 1880s and helped the rest of the world learn how to save mothers and babies with minimal complications.

So if you’re one of the people who wouldn’t be alive today without a C-section, you have Ugandan surgeons and Tanzanian and Congolese midwives to thank for their contributions to medical science.

Thank you, my sisters.

America in particular (Europe’s slightly better, but not much) only seems to remember Africa exists when it’s being visited by one of the four horsemen. Which is really sad. It’s an entire continent with a rich history, people.

And we all know why, too…
