SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
It’s 2:30pm, and suddenly you realize your so-called “lunch” was a coffee – at 7am. You’re not alone: a new survey found that 55% of workers skip lunch on busy days, often forgetting to eat entirely 2 days a week. Nearly half (43%) of those surveyed said they need reminders to eat, with women more likely than men to forget. The poll, conducted in the US, found that lunch breaks are shrinking too, now averaging just 35 minutes, and many workers eat at their desks while multitasking: checking social media, texting, or making calls. What they DO eat, sandwiches dominate, with 75% of adults and 70% of kids choosing them. Despite the rush, 84% agree that unplugging during lunch benefits health
BIG SCREEN-LITTLE SCREEN
“Stranger Things” star Millie Bobby Brown has revealed that she adopted a daughter with husband Jake Bongiovi. The 21-year-old made the surprise announcement on her Instagram account yesterday morning. She wrote: “This summer, we welcomed our sweet baby girl through adoption. We are beyond excited to embark on this beautiful next chapter of parenthood in both peace and privacy. And then there were 3. Love, Millie and Jake Bongiovi.” She included a picture of a willow tree. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/yk3krfn9
Matthew Broderick and Alan Ruck will soon be back together on the big screen after almost 40 years. The “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” actors have completed shooting on the upcoming movie “The Best Is Yet to Come”, which is a remake of a 2019 French film. Ruck and Broderick’s characters are “best friends who, through a colossal misunderstanding that creates a ticking clock, hop in a car to find the estranged son of one of them and also try to do all the things that life has prevented them from doing.” Ruck played ‘Cameron Frye’, best friend of Broderick’s ‘Ferris Bueller’ in the 1986 teen comedy classic.
Kirsten Dunst might be eyeballing the cash with her next role. She spoke with Town & Country for its September cover story ahead of the release of her movie “Roofman”, her latest project after a filmography that includes blockbusters like “Interview with the Vampire”, “Jumanji” and Sam Raimi’s “Spider-Man” trilogy. Dunst said she’d like to be in “Minecraft 2”, a sequel to the hit video-game flick that is still the top-grossing film of 2025, and noted that her 2 young sons really enjoyed the first movie. She also joked: “Maybe I can just make a movie where I don’t lose money?”
For the first time since the series ended in 2003, the full cast of “Dawson’s Creek” will be back together in one room. On September 22, they will come together at Richard Rodgers Theater in New York for a live reading of the show’s 1998 pilot episode. James Van Der Beek, Michelle Williams, Katie Holmes, Joshua Jackson, Mary Beth Peil, John Wesley Shipp, Mary-Margaret Humes, Nina Repeta, Kerr Smith, Meredith Monroe and Busy Philipps are all set to attend. The event will benefit “F Cancer” and Van Der Beek, who announced in November that he has been diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer. Tickets go on sale today.

SCOOP
OF THE DAY
Los Angeles ranked 87th in a recent report on the most educated cities in the US.
If you want your child to do well in the corporate world, consider the name “Bob”. A new study by Profit Engine finds that traditional male names dominate Fortune 500 leadership. Robert tops the list, with 21 CEOs — including Disney’s Bob Iger — carrying the name, followed by Michael with 19. Other common CEO names include James, John, Christopher, William, David, Mark, Timothy, Brian, Andrew, Thomas, and Scott. Profit Engine CEO Jason Morris said that that while correlation doesn’t equal causation, these “classic” names project authority and tradition, which are qualities that boards clearly value. Interestingly, Robert’s popularity has declined among newborns, falling from 29th in 2000 to 90th in 2024. But the pattern highlights how naming trends intersect with corporate leadership representation.

WEIRD NEWS
Microsoft’s vision for Windows in 2030 sounds less like an operating system and more like a coworker. Corporate VP for OS Security David Weston predicts future versions will “see what we see, hear what we hear,” and let users talk, gesture, or show, instead of clicking and typing. AI-powered “agents” could join Teams calls, answer emails, and handle repetitive tasks, freeing humans for creativity and decision-making. It’s a step toward a ‘Jarvis’-style assistant (the fictional AI assistant from the “Iron Man” movies). He predicts that we’ll interact with them “a lot like you do with humans today. You’ll talk to them in Microsoft Teams, they’ll join meetings.” It’s what he calls a shift away from “toil work” — the repetitive, administrative stuff AI can handle now — and toward freeing humans up for creativity, decision-making, and connection.

HEIDI HAS SOMETHING SPECIAL
(FROM HEIDI)
THE LIST
“Skibidi”, “tradwife” and other slang terms are among thousands of new words being added to the Cambridge Dictionary this year, reflecting how internet culture and modern life continue to reshape English. “Skibidi” is a nonsense term made famous by surreal YouTube videos, sometimes used to mean “cool,” “bad,” or simply as a joke (“What the skibidi are you doing?”). Kim Kardashian even showed off a necklace engraved with “skibidi toilet,” the name of a viral animated series. Another addition to the dictionary is “tradwife”, short for “traditional wife,” used to describe a married mother devoted to homemaking while sharing her lifestyle online. More than 6,000 new terms have been added, covering everything from pop culture to remote work. Other examples include “delulu” (delusional thinking), “mouse jiggler” (a device faking activity while not working), “work wife/spouse” (workplace relationships where 2 people help and trust each other), and “broligarchy” (powerful, wealthy tech “bros”).
