    Super random question. Does anyone know what it’s called when you stick your tongue out like that when concentrating? It seems so prevalent n cartoons or comics

      So after falling into a bit of a rabbit hole, I still don’t know what it’s called, but apparently it’s believed to be an involuntary trigger to shut off communication to preserve brain power for other cognitive functions.
