A new study suggests that constantly switching between videos on platforms like Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, while intended to combat boredom, may actually worsen the feeling.

New details have emerged about former President Donald Trump’s behavior during his hush-money criminal trial in New York. Sources close to Trump claim he has been nodding off due to boredom. The revelation follows initial reports by The New York Times that Trump had dozed during proceedings. According to political commentator Maggie Haberman, Trump’s head would fall down and his mouth would go slack, indicating he might have been sleeping. Prosecutors are presenting evidence to support their claim that Trump falsified business records to conceal payments made to Stormy Daniels, an adult film star who alleged she had a sexual encounter with Trump in 2006. Trump has denied the encounter and pleaded not guilty to 34 felony counts related to the alleged hush money scheme.
