What interesting things have you only recently learned about?
To be clear, this is about things which have been true for some time and you only recently learned about, not things that only happened recently. In particular, recent deaths of celebrities and other high-profile individuals should go in the General RIP Thread
.
So, what interesting things have you guys...and gals...only recently learned about?

The design for the new She-Ra Netflix show was revealed and fans are going total ape-sh** because she looks like a man. :/ I personally don't see any issue.
A little androgynous maybe but I don't see what the big deal is.

Ellie Kemper had a son a couple years ago.

The game of Tag isn't really a word. It's an abbreviation for "Touch And Go"! But I still say it can be used both ways and still be a fitting name!
