March Madness Costs Billions in Productivity
The madness isn’t just on the court—it’s also in the workplace. A new survey suggests that March Madness could cost the U.S. economy $20 billion in lost productivity. From employees getting “distracted” on the clock to the 40% of people who admit to calling in sick just to watch games, the tournament has a real impact beyond just busted brackets.
Drake’s Label Turns on Him Over Kendrick Beef
Drake is suing Universal Music Group, accusing them of favoring Kendrick Lamar’s diss track Not Like Us—a song that straight-up calls him a pedophile. But Universal isn’t having it. In their legal filing, they argue that Drake is only suing because he “lost a rap battle that he provoked” and is now throwing a lawsuit-sized tantrum. Even if you’re Team Drake, this might not be his best move.
Seaweed Hair Extensions: The Future of Beauty?
A Maine entrepreneur is making headlines with a seaweed-based alternative to synthetic hair extensions. Traditional extensions contain chemicals like lead and carcinogens, posing health risks to users. This new eco-friendly option could help reduce plastic waste in the beauty industry—while still making a whole lot of money. Will seaweed be the next big beauty trend? Time will tell.
