👶 NEWS ATTACK! A study has found that giving birth in a water bath does not increase the risk of complications for the baby or its mother. [So it’s safe if you want your new human’s first cannonball to happen on day 1.]

STUDY FINDS THERE’S NOTHING MOMS DON’T FEEL GUILTY ABOUT.. There have been tons of studies about how important it is for all people to engage in self-care, whether it means exercising, relaxing, engaging in your favorite activity, or getting a little extra sleep. But finding time for yourself, especially when you’re in a relationship or a parent, can be extremely difficult, and a study found that even when moms do find the time to treat themselves, they are riddled with guilt about it. The study finds more parents (45%) than childless people (32%) say that they don’t have time to engage in caring for themselves. Also, it is unsurprising that singletons are more likely to make time for self-care regularly than those married or in a relationship (42% versus 30%). More moms than dads are more likely to feel overwhelmed (66% versus 53%) and burnt out (54% versus 43%).

🚗 IT TAKES NEW DRIVERS ONLY 10 WEEKS TO BECOME A BAD DRIVER... After passing their driving test, it takes someone just ten weeks to become a bad driver. A study of 2,000 car owners found the average new road user lets bad habits creep in less than three months after getting their driver's license. The two things we do almost immediately are not holding the steering wheel in the correct position and failing to check our mirrors every time we make a lane change. Only 40% of women and 32% of men believe they have bad driving habits.

📱 WACKY BUT TRUE: THIEF HANGS ON TO PHONE... In the UK, a guy broke into a home and stole several items, including a smartphone. The next day, he used that phone to call himself a cab. He didn’t know that the phone he had stolen belonged to a cab driver for the cab company he had called. The phone operator recognized the cabbie’s name on the caller ID and, aware of the break-in, sent the cops rather than a cab.

The average weight gain was just over 4 pounds.

🐮 WACKY BUT TRUE: VANDALS BROKE CAR WINDOW WITH FROZEN STEAK...
Some vandals use crowbars or bricks to smash car windows, but a guy in Spain used a frozen steak. A laptop and other valuables were taken. The frozen steak was left behind on the car’s front seat.

LAWNMOWER BALANCING WORLD RECORDS... It’s summer and lawn mowing season and a good time to remind you of two world records. First, the world record for the longest duration balancing a lawnmower on the chin (non-powered) is 30 minutes and 33 seconds. This record was achieved by David Rush in Boise, Idaho, in 2021. Rush also holds the record for the longest duration balancing a powered lawnmower on the chin, with a time of 9 minutes and 17.38 seconds achieved in 2023.
