SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
New research shows that not drinking enough water can make your body overreact to stress. In a study of young adults, those who consumed less than 1.5 liters of fluids daily had cortisol spikes 55% higher than participants drinking around 4 liters. Cortisol, the body’s main stress hormone, helps us respond to challenges — but chronically high levels can wear us down. Even subtle dehydration primes your stress system. The researchers found that darker urine, an easy at-home indicator, corresponded with bigger cortisol surges. Staying properly hydrated helps regulate certain hormones, keeping them from overacting to daily stressors. The bottom line: Drinking enough water isn’t just about quenching thirst. It might be one of the simplest ways to stay calmer, sharper, and more resilient in everyday life.
BIG SCREEN-LITTLE SCREEN
Netflix has set the opening dates for its much-hyped, 100,000-square-foot permanent entertainment and shopping destinations in Philadelphia and Dallas. The free-to-enter venues will include paid activities, merchandise, and food, all tied to top Netflix offerings, including “Wednesday,” “Squid Game,” “One Piece,” “Stranger Things,” “KPop Demon Hunters,” “Love Is Blind,” “Sakamoto Days,” the “A Knives Out Mystery” franchise, and more.
“Bring It On”, because another star has shared that we aren’t saying her name correctly. Kirsten Dunst broke it down in a recent TikTok, saying: “Everyone messes up my name, so I give up. I don’t care.” She then proceeded to explain that she she answers to all versions of her name, though “Keer-sten” is the proper pronunciation. Even coworkers have gotten it wrong. She said: “The last set everyone was saying my name wrong…You just give up.”
“American Idol” is keeping its judging panel intact, but one of the show’s mainstays is still a big question mark. Luke Bryan, Lionel Richie & Carrie Underwood will all return as judges when Season 9 debuts on ABC in January. But notably absent from ABC’s press release is long-time host Ryan Seacrest. The omission, however, is likely just temporary: While he hasn’t closed a deal yet to come back to the show, sources say that Seacrest is expected to return.
Annette Bening has joined the leading cast of the Paramount+ “Yellowstone” spinoff series, which now has the working title “The Dutton Ranch”. Benning will star opposite Kelly Reilly, Cole Hauser and Finn Little, who will reprise their original roles. In The Dutton Ranch, ‘Beth Dutton’ and ‘Rip Wheeler’, face tough times and stiff competition, and “do what they must to survive”. Bening will play ‘Beulah Jackson’, the powerful, cunning and charming head of a major ranch in Texas.
DID YA KNOW!?
There are more bacterial cells in your body than human cells. The average human is around 56 per cent bacteria. This was discovered in a 2016 study and is far less than the earlier estimates of 90 per cent. As bacteria are so light, however, by weight, each person is over 99.7 per cent human.

SCOOP
OF THE DAY
Thinking burns calories.
Oh, good…it’s another new dating trend: “Shrekking”. And experts say it’s less fairy tale and more cautionary tale. Shrekking is the act of dating someone you’re not attracted to, in hopes they’ll treat you better, just like ‘Fiona’ took a chance on ‘Shrek’ in the movie. The problem? When you get Shrekked, you inevitably end up getting hurt. Dating coach Amy Chan notes the behavior isn’t new. People have forever entered into relationships hoping that attraction might grow. But the assumption that “dating down” guarantees kindness often backfires. Relationship expert Emma Hathorn adds that judging someone’s character based on appearance is flawed, because poor treatment is unattractive no matter what someone looks like. Still, experts stress that being Shrekked shouldn’t stop you from dating outside your usual type. It’s a chance to clarify your values and standards.

WEIRD NEWS
La Popote, a Michelin Guide-listed restaurant in Cheshire, is making waves — not with wine, but with water. Over the weekend the French eatery began offering the UK’s first “water menu”. The curated list features 3 still and 4 sparkling varieties, plus tap water. The idea came from water sommelier Doran Binder, who supplies La Popote with his Crag Spring Water. At first, chef Joseph Rawlins dismissed the concept, but a tasting at Binder’s Peak District “water bar” changed his mind. Like wine, different waters paired with foods, like cheese, ham, and chocolate, “transform” the flavors. Bottles of the stuff cost £5 to £19 (US $6.50-$25). The list offers waters originating throughout Europe, with mineral levels shaping flavor, from delicate Italian Lauretana to briny French Vichy Célestins. As the chef says: “Water isn’t just water”.
