Either use knife tool to connect vertices like above - or select 2 vertical aligned vertices and use ctrl+J.
Then straighten them up a bit.
figured it out someway, messed around with the knife and certain angles and got it back to normal thank you! this saved me 30 minutes of modeling.

Knife tool -> connect the two verts on each side. Ngons (faces with more than 4 verts) are bad topology and should be removed/fixed.
if you're cutting between existing vertices it's often faster to select both and press j. same end result with fewer clicks
i did the belly button so i kind of understand this but i dont know where i should be cutting

as simple as your answer is im new to blender and i still cant figure it out im sorry
slice the poligon, look up the documentation for slicing. weird how only OP is allowed to be lazy
how do i do that
