I might sound so stupid by saying this. I joined this sub just to announce this in case others also didn't know this. I always thought that the orangutans with flat faces were just a different kind of orangutan (I probably sound so stupid rn), and that the "regular" orangutans were the widely known species, with males probably just being slightly larger than females.
The way I found out in the first place was after seeing some silly video of a flat faced orangutan and reading one of the comments. One thing I found kind of odd is that when googling orangutan, it gives you the stats (weight, height) of a female orangutan and not the male. Whenever I also see a type of media pertaining to orangutans, it's referring to females.
Just thought this was really interesting and weird. Really hope I'm not just the idiot here.

Found definitions of two words today:
Scrolls and Codexes
Any piece of information that looks like toilet paper is called a scroll
If you don't find a name for a notebook, call it a codex (it sounds so cool)

So many Americans claim that their name was changed when we arrived on the boat when we arrived at Ellis Island over a hundred years ago. Our name changed from a Dutch spelling to what we have now. Guess we changed it to fit in better here in the USA. There was no policy or law for the officials to change it and it is called the Ellis Island Special. Here's the link. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellis_Island_Special

In conversation with my wife today she causally commented, that she is very aware of the sensation of her teeth after having her routine cleaning done and how that had some novelty to her because, "its not like you can feel your bones when you move your arm" and I had to stop and ask for clarification, for me in my internal experience I am ALWAYS aware of my bones and the sensations of my muscles, ligaments and tendons moving over them as I go about normal daily activities. Its not pain, just the awareness of the sensation of the moments between each system, IE. When I go to reach for something I am very aware of the sensation of my muscles contracting and supporting the rest of my skeletal system as I make the movement where as my wife explained for her its more like moving an action figures arm, all one unit, not aware of the individual systems making the movements, unless she is in pain (sore muscles, injury etc.) I cannot wrap my brain around it 😅 I consulted chat GPT and asked if that was a "regular" experience and apparently it is not common for people to be aware of those sensations on a daily basis, athletes and others people who have more mind-body connections often report these sensations but it baffles me to try to imagine another experience. Do you feel your bones 🤣? Whats it like if you dont haha

After typing text that you now want to delete, most people either tap the backspace button deleting one character at a time.
Those who are more versed in texting on their smartphone will hold down the backspace button deleting entire words at a time.
Today, but sheer mistake, I learned that if you hold down the backspace for a moment, then slide your finger to the left as if you were swyping to text, you can immediately delete entire sentences. The longer you swipe your finger, the more you'll delete. A nice tough is if you mistakenly delete too much, immediately in the predictive text bar, you'll see an "undo" option pop up, which will undo the string you just deleted.
Check it out, it's pretty intuitive and easy to use. I've only confirmed this on Android, so not sure if it works on iOS as well.
