Recent data and analyses show that the genetic difference between humans and our closest relatives (chimps and bonobos) is not 2% but about 15%. whyevolutionistrue.com/2025/12/07/h...

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

1/n We have discovered that bees can keep track of time duration! Bees can discriminate long 🟡🟡 vs short🟡 flashes, a bit like the "dash" and "dot" of the Morse code. Check our new paper royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... and videoclip youtu.be/hsGxU65OMQk?... @preparedmindslab.bsky.social

A study by researchers at Queen Mary University of London and University College London has found that humans have a form of remote touch, or the ability to sense objects without direct contact, a sense that some animals have.  soundcloud.com/sweetsongspr...

Humans possess a “Seventh Sense” remote touch like sandpipers thefreesheet.com/2025/11/08/h...

Research first to show humans have remote touch "seventh sense" like sandpipers https://www.qmul.ac.uk/media/news/2025/science-and-engineering/se/research-first-to-show-humans-have-remote-touch-seventh-sense-like-sandpipers.html

Humans can detect objects buried in sand before direct contact, demonstrating a form of remote touch similar to that seen in certain shorebirds and expanding the known range of tactile perception. doi.org/g99kpf

we discovered remote touch in humans! a moving hand detects objects under the sand without touching them! clip: youtu.be/6hpuLojesyQ?... paper: ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/doc... team: @zhengqichen.bsky.social @lauracrucianelli.bsky.social #LorenzoJamone + me @preparedmindslab.bsky.social
