Pete Davidson Details Ketamine and Acid Use That Led to Rehab

Pete Davidson disclosed in a Variety interview that he used ketamine, acid, mushrooms, nitrous oxide, and pills daily at the height of his addiction. He admitted to 'cooking' liquid ketamine and noted that he felt high even when sober, signaling a severe dependency. Davidson identified summer 2023 as his rock bottom, coinciding with the release of his autobiographical series 'Bupkis' and his departure from 'Saturday Night Live.' A FaceTime call from his mother, Amy, prompted him to enter rehab and leave 'Bupkis.' He is now sober, having abstained from hard drugs for two to three years and weed for over a year, citing his daughter Scottie as his primary motivation. He admits to drinking about four beers a year but remains otherwise clean.

Billy Joel warning steers Clint Black toward family-first fatherhood

Clint Black credits Billy Joel for warning him against being an “Uncle Daddy,” which inspired him to prioritize his family and pursue a secure attachment with daughter Lily during her early years, even as he balanced a touring career. After four miscarriages before Lily’s 2001 birth, Black limited his time on the road, focused on time at home, and later continued touring with Lily occasionally joining him onstage. His memoir Killin’ Time details these choices and their impact on his life and marriage to Lisa Hartman Black, illustrating how fatherhood reshaped his priorities and strengthened his bond with Lily.

Doku’s push to witness his child’s birth tests World Cup priorities

Belgian winger Jeremy Doku said he hopes to be at the birth of his first child during the World Cup, sparking a backlash the piece argues is overblown. It asserts that being present for childbirth is a unique, deeply personal moment and that sport, while important, is a job that doesn’t demand an absence from such life events. The article acknowledges there are broader debates about athletes missing games for family moments but stresses that the decision is ultimately up to Doku and his partner, not the public consensus.

When Dads Suffer Too: The Hidden Case for Postpartum Depression in Fathers

With more dads sharing infant caregiving, postpartum depression is a real, under‑recognized crisis for fathers: the piece uses a personal account of a new father’s insomnia, withdrawal, and disengagement after their baby's birth to show how paternal depression can mimic mood disorders and be silenced by stigma and masculine expectations; it calls for greater awareness, routine screening, and targeted support for fathers in early parenting.

Fatherhood triggers rapid brain reorganization, study finds

Fatherhood triggers rapid brain reorganization, study finds

A longitudinal MRI study of 25 first-time fathers shows early widespread gray matter reductions in areas tied to sensory processing, self-referential thinking, and social cognition during the first six weeks after birth, followed by later increases in frontal and cerebellar regions related to planning and emotional control. Functional connectivity also shifts, weakening links to sensory regions and strengthening those related to emotion and cognitive control. Researchers identify weeks six to nine as a critical window for paternal neuroplasticity, indicating that the brain’s reorganization is a real biological feature of early fatherhood, not just a social adjustment.

First Six Weeks Trigger Rapid Brain Remodeling in New Fathers

A small MRI study followed 25 new fathers across 24 weeks after birth, revealing rapid brain changes—early widespread gray matter reductions in multiple regions, later region-specific growth and altered connectivity—indicating paternal neuroplasticity, though generalizability is limited by the single-site, non-diverse sample and lack of pre-birth baseline.

Fatherhood Triggers Rapid Brain Remodeling to Support Caring

A small study of 25 fathers scanned up to 24 weeks after birth finds rapid, dynamic brain restructuring: initial widespread gray-matter reductions followed by regional swelling, particularly in areas tied to attention, reward, and emotional processing, suggesting a 'parental brain network' tailored for caregiving. Changes resemble some maternal brain shifts but are preliminary, with unclear longevity and potential variation between first and later children.
