SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
Finding the right life partner might have less to do with being like “2 peas in a pod” – and more to do with sharing the same values. A new study of more than 450 married couples in the Netherlands found that spouses were most alike in 2 areas: their moral values and their curiosity about the world. On most other personality traits, including how outgoing, emotional, organized, or cooperative they were, couples were actually found to be quite different. Researchers also found that spouses often assumed they were more alike than they actually were. Still, long-married couples were remarkably accurate at describing each other’s personalities. The findings suggest that lasting relationships may be built less on matching temperaments and more on shared beliefs and a common interest in learning and new experiences.

Ice-T’s heating his TV career back up. After a part-time role on season 27 of “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,” he’s now promising fans will see him in every episode of season 28. Ice-T explained he was a part-time cart member last year because producers needed to free up cash to bring Kelli Giddish’s character ‘Amanda Rollins’ back to the show — a decision he says didn’t upset him one bit. T said that the decision made sense, because “everyone wanted” Giddish to come back, and the move freed him up to make money elsewhere.
Priscilla Presley‘s son Navarone Garibaldi Garci is defending himself from critiques of his new business venture. The 37-year-old son of Priscilla and music producer Marco Garibaldi created a GoFundMe on Friday to raise money so he can start an “affordable organic pizza” business that he wants to run from his LA driveway. As he aims to raise $5,500 to cover the cost of an industrial pizza oven, some on social media shared criticism about the crowdfunding campaign, and others asked why Navarone can’t go to his famous mother for help. Navarone addressed that question, responding: “She loves the idea but I can’t ask for money for every whimsical idea I have or we both would be broke.” LINK: https://tinyurl.com/54s9zpjw

SCOOP
OF THE DAY
After years of bold colors dominating home design, warmer and more comforting tones are making a comeback. Designers say cool grays are falling out of favor as homeowners embrace cozy neutrals like taupe, sand, mushroom, and creamy white. One shade getting particular attention for 2026 is warm khaki, which experts describe as a versatile “foundational neutral” that feels softer and more inviting than stark whites or gray-beige tones. Nature-inspired colors are also trending, including ocher, forest green, tobacco brown, olive, rust, and deep blue. Designers say these earthy palettes create calm, welcoming spaces and reflect a growing desire for homes that feel authentic, timeless, and grounded. Meanwhile, Offbeat Green SW 7606, the least-used paint color of Sherwin-Williams’ collection, has been named “The Loneliest Color of 2026”. Its greenish-yellow shade is described as an “earthy, lime green” in an attempt at embellishing the lackluster hue. Sherwin-Williams markets The Loneliest Color as a way to “rediscover the beauty of color”, choosing an unpopular, dull hue to revive. The Loneliest Color is now being branded as an “earthy, citric, lime green” to use as an accent in kitchens, living rooms and bedrooms.

WEIRD NEWS
Never mind dating apps. Try looking for love while buying groceries. Some supermarkets in Finland are testing pink shopping baskets that let other customers know you’re single and open to meeting someone. Regular baskets are gray or black, so the pink ones definitely stand out. The idea recently went viral after Instagram creator Kashivi, who has lived in Finland for 4 years, posted a video explaining the concept. She says shoppers are only supposed to approach each other if they’re both carrying pink baskets. The video has racked up more than 1.3 million views, with amused commenters joking they need 10 baskets “so people…realize it’s urgent,” or that it’s time to start grocery shopping in Finland.

THE LIST
Nearly two-thirds of adults say they regularly watch “oddly satisfying” videos on social media, spending an average of 156 hours a year (almost 30 mins per day) glued to clips of strangely soothing moments. A survey of 2,000 people in the US found the most popular videos feature pimple popping (33%), pressure washing (27%), and crushing objects (27%). The appeal isn’t just entertainment, either: many people say these videos provide a unique sense of relief. That theme carried over into real life, with 55% saying finally clearing a stuffy nose and breathing through both nostrils is “extremely satisfying.” In fact, many ranked that feeling as more satisfying than a back rub, a nap, or scratching a hard-to-reach itch. Here’s a list of other things that respondents said they find “oddly satisfying”:
✓ A good hot bath
✓ Putting paper through a shredder
✓ Biting nails
✓ Cleaning
✓ Digging in your nose
✓ Passing gas (of course)
✓ Keyboard noises
✓ Mukbang videos
✓ Mowing the lawn
✓ Organizing
✓ Popping bubble wrap
