A little more than 25 minutes in, there seems to be a small glitch that many have suggested indicates that the video has been edited. If you've been to any news sites today, there's a good chance you know which video I'm talking about. The arrest and mysterious death of Sandra Bland is dominating the headlines. And that has almost nothing to do with her. And almost everything to do with the way her story fits into an existing and heavily-covered storyline. You learn a few things by visiting nearly a hundred news sites every morning. One of them is that there are few forces as powerful as media momentum. Here's my look at Sandra Bland, media momentum, and why top of meme is always top of mind.

+ Officials say the Sandra Bland video wasn't edited. There were just technical issues.

+ "The release of a video of Sandra Bland's arrest doesn't explain how the 28-year-old ended up dead in a Texas jail cell, but it makes a convincing case that she never should have been jailed in the first place." In The Atlantic, David A. Graham wonders: How many Sandra Blands are out there?

No hunger. No pollution. No disease. Wired's Amy Maxmen welcomes you to the age of copy and paste DNA editing and the end of life as we know it. "Genome editing started with just a few big labs putting in lots of effort, trying something 1,000 times for one or two successes. Now it's something that someone with a BS and a couple thousand dollars' worth of equipment can do. What was impractical is now almost everyday. That's a big deal."

+ "Steven Pete can put his hand on a hot stove or step on a piece of glass and not feel a thing." And drug companies see gold when they look at Steven Pete and other people with rare genetic mutations. From Bloomberg: These Superhumans Are Real and Their DNA Could Be Worth Billions. (If Pfizer knew how many browser tabs I could open at once, they'd be banging down my door...)

Where do the two Americas meet? On the highway, usually driving U-hauls in opposite directions. Here's a look at the top 20 cities Americans are ditching (and where they're often being replaced by people who can pay the higher rents).

+ CityLab: A striking new map shows how districts' tax-property funding system enforces divides between rich and poor.

"Everything in Anders Behring Breivik's history up until the horrific deed can be more or less found in every life story; he was and is one of us. The fact that he did what he did, and that other young men, misfits, have shot scores of people, implies that the necessary distance from the other is attainable in our culture, probably more so now than it was a couple of generations ago." Karl Ove Knausgaard tries to comprehend what can turn a person into a mass murder with a look inside the warped mind of Anders Breivik.

Earlier this week, a viral video showed a civilian-grade drone equipped with a semi-automatic handgun. Hopes&Fears (not necessarily in that order) asked the experts whether that's legal. (My mom wouldn't even let me get a slingshot.)

+ "Just because you have access to an expensive toy that can fly in a dangerous area doesn't mean you should do it." California may need a law that frees up firefighters to take down drones that are impeding efforts to fight fires.

+ The National Guard is seeking more drones for domestic missions.

Money can't buy you love. But it can buy you a facsimile so accurate as to render any differences almost completely imperceptible. For evidence, just take a closer look at a few political events or protest movements. Dan Schneider on the business of generating fake enthusiasm.

Since 1917, millions of folks -- from athletes to hipsters to those seeking access to ironic nostalgia without having to suffer exposure to the microbes associated with attire that is actually used and old -- have thrown on a pair of Chuck Taylors. But the next time they do so, they might feel something very different, courtesy of Nike (Chuck's parent company): Comfort. What the Chuck?

"The pages were stained and yellowed, but the story was all there, in Dr. Seuss' unmistakable rollicking rhymes." Dr. Seuss has a new book. And as the NYT discovered, it was found it in a box. (Sidenote to my friends and family: Upon my death, the charred, scribbled remains I've saved in a box labeled "Do Not Publish, Never Ever Ever Ever, Under Any Circumstances" should only be published if there's a reasonable chance it'll go viral.)

"In many parts of the world, a lack in economic development might be to blame for a widespread absence of air-conditioning at the moment. However, that doesn't explain why even most Europeans ridicule Americans for their love of cooling and lack of heat tolerance." According to WaPo, Europeans think the American love affair with air conditioning is stupid. (And many Americans didn't even notice that criticism because they were distracted by how close Europeans were standing to them when it was delivered.)

Last night my six year-old daughter told me that my stomach was not fat. After I thanked her, she explained that all my belly fat had moved up to my boobs. That seemed like the perfect time for daddy to use a series of a recent studies to prove that, indeed, Dad Bod is real.

+ It turns out that Ivanka Trump and Chelsea Clinton are pals. (Whenever one of them gets a call from dad, she presses mute and they both roll their eyes and laugh knowingly.)

+ And finally, last night's Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj Twitter feud, explained. (If nothing else, I get to re-watch the Anaconda video in the name of research.)
