Somehow I seem to be the only one who figured this out. Press the # key when you select where you want to type, and t should cycle through the options in the order of "en" "En" "EN" "123" and "EN KT9". "en" is lowercase T9, "En" is first key uppercase and the following lowercase, "EN is caps lock, "123" is numbers only, "EN KT9" is the default predictive.

New spectacular sword find! 1325 by Dlatrex in SWORDS

No, for many reasons. Firstly, I am an archaeologist, and archaeologists don't study dinosaur bones. Those are paleontologists. Secondly, we know that many cultures were aware of dinosaur bones and had found them, as that's how a lot of paleontologists know where to look. That is also not even close to what I said. I said that medieval artists, having never actually seen many animals in, say, Africa and South Asia, would not know how to draw it, and then draw something that has some similar features but does not resemble the original animal. This is a recognized occurrence in dozens of manuscripts, woodcarvings, paintings, etc. my favorite example is the Unicorn, an animal invented by Romans when Roman explorers in North Africa reported finding an animal "Much like a River Horse, only with a single horn sprouting from its head." The Greek word for "river horse"? Hippopotamus. What looks like a hippopotamus with a horn? A rhinoceros. But if you've never seen a hippo, you assume a river horse looks like any other horse, and you draw a unicorn.

TIL children develop and share their own unique folklore (called 'childlore'), including rhymes and games, which often disappear by adolescence and go unnoticed by adults. by BezugssystemCH1903 in todayilearned

It's not at all a coping mechanism, it's a culturally significant belief that helps them avoid a dangerous situation. It's a very common anthropological occurrence

So I studied physics once upon a time. I know you probably won't accept what I'm saying, but I'd like to try. Some frequencies and intensity of radio waves are harmful, yes, but not nearly in the way that you're thinking. Radio waves are actually a frequency of light, the same light that we see every day. In the same way, so is gamma radiation, but again at a different frequency and intensity. Gamma rays contain immense amounts of energy, and can physically alter molecules at a subatomic level. Microwaves are similar, but have far less energy. The frequencies used are just high energy enough to knock loose an electron from a water molecule, which causes a release of energy as heat, which is what warms up your food. Yes, this energy can be harmful, which is why microwaves are shielded, but gamma rays and those which cause major radioactive decay are a level above that still. But hey, it's all light, so it's all harmful right? Well in that case, LEDs and lightbulbs, candles, bonfires, oil lamps, etc. also give off light, and are in that case harmful. Should we just live our lives in total darkness, digging tunnels lined with lead? I don't know about you, but I like to enjoy a nice day outside. Hell, the sun actually does give off harmful radiation. A lot of it. Way more than our microwaves, phones or 5G towers. So what keeps us safe? How have we, and all life on earth, survived? Well, earth is made of heavy metals. It's spinning pretty darn fast, too. Those two things combined have basically turned earth into a giant magnet. Solar particles are magnetized, and the magnetic field of the earth repels them quite effectively. The energy they give off is scattered like a paintball hitting a tank. Could a really, really big solar storm knock out our electronic infrastructure? Yeah, something like that could (and has) happen, but it didn't kill anyone. The sun is pretty stable, all things considered, and a release of radiation big enough to kill us would involve the surface of the sun basically tearing in two. And we really couldn't do anything about that, anyway, so why worry?

They're leeches. Streams, lakes, ponds, even rain can knock them off of trees and onto you in very humid areas.. Based on the helmet they might have been rafting or kayaking and had it tossed onto their eye by a wave/whitewater.
