Australia has recorded 20 fatal shark attacks in the past five years (2021–2026), including 3 fatalities so far in 2026. This reflects an average of roughly 4 deaths per year, driven primarily by fluctuations in great white shark behaviors and changing migration patterns near popular surfing spot.

I think that the other late night hosts should have Stephen Colbert on their shows over the next few weeks and each one should present him with a peace prize that they make. How many peace prizes has trump bullied others into giving him? The other talk show.hosts should give him three more than trump has so Donnie the C.H.U.D. can see Stephen's amount of awards be a larger number of awards than what he has been guilting billionaires into gifting him. Let's make Stephen Colbert great again!

RuPaul is right about parenting styles and kids wanting boundaries. I know I wanted those in the 90s. ❤

RuPaul taught me how to parallel park. Thanks RuPaul! That was the only part of my driver’s test that I failed many years ago. I randomly came across his parking video and did it on the first try the very next time I had to parallel park.

I met him years ago in Atlanta-he used to come into the library I worked in. I got to see him perform at Backstreet several times. Atlanta was so wild n fun back then.
