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?

I didn't know about Pinocchetta until today! I'm like "Pinocchio has a sister?! How did I not know it?!".
Did you not now that, too?

Google isn't showing up anything with that name and Wikipedia's page for Pinocchio doesn't reference it either.

Yeah,something a bit off with their claim there,they could have just made it up on the spot

Good one.
As soon as I find it, I will show you the proof.
Until then, peace out (of this thread).

Lionel Messi has a sister.
Proof (in Spanish), just in case.
At least 75 people actually showed up for the Area 51 raid.
Having a good time!
That is at once underwhelming and a relief.
Mweheheh
King Tut was buried with a condom.

Sean Bean got pissed about being pigeonholed as a Chronically Killed Actor and admitted in an interview he's now rejecting roles that have his character killed.

The Fanfic Recs page for The Iliad lists The Aeneid as one of the fanfics.

Definitely is.
Some still life paintings are essentially Food Porn in a way.

Also, someone I knew from here almost eight years back seems to have started a communist podcast earlier this year and gotten into a bit of a Twitter mess today.

Making Unicorns Cool Again Since 2010
I would have posted this last night, but I got too tired. ^_^;; Anyway, Miraculous Ladybug was going to be an anime.
Princess Aurora is underrated, pass it on.

Like the 2011 trailer? I was so hyped for that show but couldn't get into the series after it switched to CGI. I don't like the art-style and prefer Felix.

Yahoo got a new logo. And while I was reading it, I found out that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson got married.
Also, Flickr is no longer owned by Yahoo.

There was a chocolate edition of Breakbot’s By Your Side, both playable and edible. It was limited to 120 pieces. It was one sided and only played the album’s first three tracks, so unfortunately no ensuing memes such as “Baby I’m Yours but played on chocolate”. 
I have seen the amateur, and it is me.
Oof! That logo looks like it should be on the side of a moving truck.

Being able to understand a language but not speak it is called "receptive bilingualism".
I always thought something was wrong with me since I can understand Spanish very well but can't remember anything when I try to speak it.
