SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
Researchers have developed a small wearable sensor that clips onto underwear and tracks gut bacteria by measuring…yup…hydrogen gas released in flatulence. That’s right – it’s basically ‘smart underwear’ that counts farts. In a study of 38 people, the device detected dietary changes with nearly 95% accuracy, and revealed people pass gas about 32 times daily – far more than the 10-20 most of us estimate. Counts varied widely, ranging from 4 to 59 per a day, suggesting there’s no single “normal.” The device also showed how certain foods trigger bacterial fermentation. Surprisingly, some participants reported discomfort from foods that caused little fermentation, highlighting how expectations can influence digestive symptoms. Scientists hope the technology will improve research into diet, gut health, and food intolerances.
BIG SCREEN-LITTLE SCREEN
It appears that nobody’s knocking “Wuthering Heights” off that throne just yet…but it’s close. Emerald Fennell’s passion project hauled in a projected $14 million domestically over the weekend. Right on Wuthering Heights’ heels, “GOAT” refused to fade into the background. The animated family film took in just over $13 million. “I Can Only Imagine 2’s” opening weekend numbers won’t be making any headlines, with a 3-day total of about $9 million.
Woody, Buzz, and the crew are staring down their most formidable foe yet in “Toy Story 5”. Directed by Andrew Stanton, the trailer for the latest installment has been released. Starring Tim Allen as ‘Buzz Lightyear’ and Tom Hanks as ‘Woody’, Toy Story 5 will tackle contemporary issues, particularly the impact of technology on childhood play. In Toy Story 5 the toys’ jobs get exponentially harder when they go head to head with what kids are obsessed with today: electronics. Toy Story 5 will also focus more on Joan Cusack’s ‘Jessie’. Toy Story 5 is slated for release June 19. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/3dr8d52s

DID YOU KNOW… There is a species of ant that farms aphids. The ants protect the aphids and “milk” them for honeydew. In return, the aphids receive shelter and care.

SCOOP
OF THE DAY
A report claims that birds can feel the effects of alcohol, like humans.
Researchers at Stanford University say a single nasal spray vaccine could one day protect against colds, flu, coughs, bacterial lung infections…and even ease allergies. Tested so far only in animals, the experimental “universal vaccine” takes a radically different approach from traditional vaccines. Instead of targeting specific diseases, it boosts immune calls in the lungs, keeping them on high alert. Published in Science, the early findings excited experts, though human trials are still needed.

WEIRD NEWS
A junior high school in Taiwan has gone viral for making students climb a 5-storey rock wall…if they want to graduate. At Changhua County’s Ershui Junior High School, students take 6 climbing lessons a week and must scale the 15-metre wall to receive their diplomas. The towering structure, the tallest school climbing wall in Taiwan, is meant to build focus, balance and coordination. While it may intimidate adults, students embrace the challenge, with some even climbing for fun alongside their parents. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/ms2tpcrk

THE LIST
LIFE LESSONS PEOPLE LEARNED THE HARD WAY:
In a recent Reddit thread, a used asked people to share the life lessons they wish someone warned them about earlier. Feel free take notes…
❑ “You don’t discover yourself. You create yourself. And to do that effectively, it requires dedicated work every single day.”
❑ “Choose friends who are going places, not the cool losers.”
❑ “Friendship is not about quantity of friends but quality.”
❑ “You can do everything right and get nowhere, and you do everything wrong and get somewhere.”
❑ “Trust your gut instincts, they’re usually right.”
❑ “Pop culture romanticizes the ‘spark.’ Good relationships are built on mutual respect and shared values.”
❑ “Wanting everyone to like you isn’t worth it.”
❑ “Your career/job and your life partner are the two most important decisions you will make in life. Choose wisely.”
❑ “Your body isn’t invincible, and the way you treat it in your 20s (and even 30s) catches up brutally in your 40s+ often faster than you expect.”
❑ “Instagram is not reality.”
