It seemed like a perfect idea: getting a little bit of exercise by standing while working at your desk. But it turns out that standing desks don’t help your health much at all. According to a new study of adults in the UK, standing at your computer doesn’t make your lifestyle any less sedentary, and doing it for 2 or more hours per day may even increase your risks of swollen or clotted veins in the legs. University of Sydney researchers found that standing more doesn’t do anything to boost heart health or reduce the risk of stroke. They instead recommend you follow the age-old advice that you’ve heard a thousand times: Move your body throughout the day by going for a walk, choosing the stairs, taking quick breaks from your workstation, and getting exercise before or after work.

These
days, more straight people are referring to their significant other
as “partner”. It’s a term commonly used by those in the
LGBTQ2S+ community to describe their relationship to others. Dr.
Patricia S. Dixon, a psychologist and professor at National Louis
University in Florida, said it is becoming more normalized among
Millennials and Gen Zers to say ‘partner’ when referring to one’s
mate, as a show of support for inclusivity and to normalize the
growing number of non-traditional relationships.

The Golden Bachelorette herself, Joan Vassos, has responded to Martha Stewart’s dig that she’d never do the series because “the guys aren’t hot enough.” On “Access Hollywood”, Vassos said: “I had a great group of guys. She doesn’t know them like i know them.” She continued, saying: “Maybe you have to be in person but they were special guys. I feel like everybody’s falling in love with them! What is wrong with you, Martha? “Stewart made her comments on “Watch What Happens Live”. When Andy Cohen asked if she’d ever consider doing the show, she replied with a resounding “absolutely not.” When Cohen asked, “million dollars an episode?” Stewart simply shook her head.
“Venom: The Last Dance” isn’t shaping up to be a “Joker: Folie a Deux”-like disaster, but it did fall well short of its predecessors, with an estimated $52 million domestic opening weekend. That’s short of the $65 million pre-release projections for the Marvel antihero film, and well short of the $80 million first weekend of the first “Venom” in 2018. Also opening over the weekend was “Conclave,” which nabbed an estimated $6.5 million, meeting pre-release projections.
“Spider-Man 4”, starring Tom Holland, will be hitting theaters in 2026. Variety reports that “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” director Destin Daniel Cretton is on board to direct the so-far untitled Spidey film, and it’ll be released July 24, 2026. That means Spider-Man 4 will premiere 2 months after “Avengers: Doomsday”. This is similar to the way “Spider-Man: Far From Home” was released 2 months after “Avengers: Endgame”. Tom Holland is set to return as ‘Peter Parker’, following the events of “Spider-Man: No Way Home” in 2021, when he came face-to-face (to face) with Multiverse variants of himself played by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield.

CDC has announced that it’s officially flu season.
Does
anyone “Wordle” anymore? Well, no matter, because its successor
may have just been unleashed. Netflix has partnered with TED Talks
for a new game called “TED Tumblewords”. The daily word-puzzle
mobile game will launch on Nov. 19. The free game, played on your
smartphone, lets you play against friends, strangers or the “TED
Bot”, which sounds like a horrifying Halloween movie villain. In
its announcement last week, the company said: “TEDplayers will
slide rows of scrambled letters on a grid to create words, aiming for
the longest possibilities while earning points and building word
chains.” As they progress, players will be able to collect
“fascinating facts that enrich understanding of various TED
Topics”. Ted Tumblewords is available for pre-registration now on
Android and iOS. It is the latest of about 100 mobile games offered
by Netflix.

Whitney Houston’s 1987 hit ‘I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)’ has been named the most popular wedding song by Breezit, an online wedding vendor search tool. The Billboard #1 hit, which appeared on Houston’s second album “Whitney”, appeared 484 times across the 2,000 wedding-themed Spotify playlists that the company analyzed — which contained just under 50,000 songs. ABBA’s 1976 pop classic ‘Dancing Queen’ came second, used in 394 wedding playlists. Landing in third was Usher’s ‘Yeah!’, which features Lil Jon and Ludacris. Breezit CEO Arturas Asakavicius said: “Wedding playlists can help create lasting memories, capturing both the joy of the dance floor and the romance of walking down the aisle.”

An unknown gift-giver is helping residents of Chatham, Kent, England with their energy bills. The generous stranger has been dropping Christmas cards in peoples’ mailboxes, and including cash and a note, specifying the “fiver” is to go toward the rising cost of electricity. One local resident, who said she spotted the mystery gift-giver, said he “had a little stack of cards and he was going round and popping them all in the letterboxes.” She had never seen him before, which is even more odd in the small community, where “everybody knows everybody.”
