Any man who has this kind of confidence is a man worth knowing. 😂😂😂 Also, if you don't know who this is, you should probably just unfollow me and give up altogether. It's that crucial. 😉

This gentle boy has some new best friends. 🥹 He's bringing them his favorite toy but it might be a bit too big for them. 😂😂😂 Don't tell him about chicken salad croissant sammiches. 😳

I don’t know if the Wright Brothers had this in mind when they were dreaming of their flying machine, but there is no doubt that man has a vivid imagination when it comes to getting off the ground. These entries are from the Red Bull Flugtag held in Minneapolis this year. It’s amazing to think about going from simple machines like these to Elon’s rocket boosters returning to Earth in 120 years time. Where will we be in the next 100 years? ✈️ 🚀 🌎

This is crazy. Water is so destructive, whether it's liquid or in the form of ice. I'm not sure what he thinks he's trying to accomplish with the shovel...it's a lot like using a paper cup to bail out a sinking boat. Maybe just get the small children away from the glass windows. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Elephants have long been my favorite animal. They are so intelligent and playful, and they form bonds with people that last a lifetime. In this clip, Conservationist Darrick Thomson had separated from his herd at Elephant Nature Park in Thailand for 14 months while working on other projects. When he returned, he called to them. They rushed toward him in the river, flapped their ears and joyfully trumpeted with excitement. Then, they gathered around him in a gentle, protective circle. Rescue efforts like Save Elephant Foundation where Darrick works, and The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee are near and dear to my heart. ❤️

Are your furry family members dressing up for Halloween? 🎃 My guy is probably going to be a baked potato. 🥔 This falls right in line with his personality and demeanor, although he does do more than lie around and look cute. 🥰 I’m sure he will be miserable but a good sport about the whole thing. I can’t wait to see everyone’s photos from the big night! 🐶🐾🦴

Here is some Golden Glitter for your day. These guys are never disappointing and always entertaining, even when they get into trouble. My guy is a purebred and typical of the breed so what you see here is exactly how he is every day. I wouldn't trade a minute of his goofiness. 🐶🐾🦴 *boop

I appreciate many art forms but sculpting has always mesmerized me. American sculptor Gabriel Vinas explores the human condition through figurative sculpture, portraiture, and the study of human evolution. His MFA thesis focused on how scientists reconstruct ancient beings and his practice brings together classical sculpting, production modeling and scientific anatomical reconstruction. My love of science drew me to this particular work of art as he based it on reconstructed skulls of Australopithecus. For the artist, the piece is about the questions that science may never answer. The process he used to create it, down to every fold of the fabric veil sculpted by hand is stunning.

This is the Duomo di Milano (Milan Cathedral), also known as the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Nascente. This is the iconic Gothic cathedral in the heart of Milan, Italy, and is the largest church in Italy proper (St. Peter’s is in Vatican City) and one of the largest in the world, with a distinctive forest of spires, statues, and the golden Madonnina statue on top. Construction began in 1386 and it took nearly six centuries to complete. The main façade was finished in the early 19th century (Napoleon was crowned King of Italy here in 1805 and pushed for its completion); the last major details (including bronze doors) were done in 1965. Milanese still joke that projects take “as long as the Duomo’s building site.” Built primarily of pinkish-white Candoglia marble. It has a cruciform plan, five aisles, a vast interior that can hold tens of thousands, and extensive stained glass. It boasts about 135 spires and more than 3,000–3,400 statues and figures (among the highest numbers on any single building). The walkable roof terraces (accessible by stairs or elevator) let you walk among the pinnacles, gargoyles, and statues with panoramic city and Alpine views. The gilded copper statue of the Virgin Mary (Assunta) atop the central spire, about 4.16 m (13+ ft) tall, was installed in 1774. The total height of the cathedral to the top of the Madonnina is roughly 108.5 m. (356 ft.) It also functions as a lightning rod.

In Wiltshire, England is an ancient forest called Savernake Forest. It dates back at least 10 centuries and is known for its massive beech and oak trees, as well as ghosts. This area of land was put into the care of Richard Esturmy after the Norman Conquest in 1066. Since then, Savernake estate and forest has passed down from father to son (or daughter, on four occasions) in an unbroken line of hereditary "forest wardens". In 31 generations, it has never once been bought or sold in a thousand years, and today it is the only ancient forest in Britain still in private hands. The Big Belly Oak is an 1100 year old oak tree deep in the forest that still lives. You can hike to it and apparently, stand inside it.

Watching your entire life play out because you have eternity to wait will be quite entertaining for some of us. It will simultaneously be the best and worst reruns ever. I'm bringing snacks.🍿

I missed these little cuties on Saturday so now you have to endure the torture with me. I'm sure you would rather see more political ads instead and it's completely understandable. Please forgive me and accept my heartfelt apology. ❤️🐶🐾🦴

Seven months ago, the ‘White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud’ was launched. On Friday, the success was shared in a news briefing.

President Reagan’s quote updated by @afbranco as it applies now! We are at a potential tipping point. Red, conservative candidates need to prevail tomorrow. Get out that vote! ♥️🇺🇸♥️
