When discussing bringing a dog into a family I often hear complaints about having to walk them; however, I find this is the most peaceful moment of my day and when I feel completely content. Walking my dog is his gift to me, not the other way around.

@ThrillaRilla369 In a second.

We will never see anything like this again in our lifetimes. If you have a few minutes, watch it. Probably the greatest music video ever made. Michael Jackson - Thriller (1983)

@ShaeAaron @TaraSetmayer 😂 I’m afraid that’s not the case!

@TaraSetmayer People around the globe love Trump and wish he could save their counties too.

I’ve been overseas the last 2 weeks and I can’t begin to tell you how alarmed folks are about what’s happening the US. There’s a sense of confusion, sadness and fear. Not one person we talked to wants to come to America. Usually, it’s the opposite. Not anymore. Smh. Trump has destroyed our standing around the globe.

@jasonscheer Fans at a hockey game cheered every time this 4-year-old boy was shown on the big screen and booed when it was someone else 😅

*One month before her 95th birthday, Patricia Routledge wrote something that still gently echoes:* **“I’ll be turning 95 this coming Monday. In my younger years, I was often filled with worry — worry that I wasn’t quite good enough, that no one would cast me again, that I wouldn’t live up to my mother’s hopes. But these days begin in peace, and end in gratitude.”** My life didn’t quite take shape until my forties. I had worked steadily — on provincial stages, in radio plays, in West End productions — but I often felt adrift, as though I was searching for a home within myself that I hadn’t quite found. At 50, I accepted a television role that many would later associate me with — Hyacinth Bucket, of Keeping Up Appearances. I thought it would be a small part in a little series. I never imagined that it would take me into people’s living rooms and hearts around the world. And truthfully, that role taught me to accept my own quirks. It healed something in me. At 60, I began learning Italian — not for work, but so I could sing opera in its native language. I also learned how to live alone without feeling lonely. I read poetry aloud each evening, not to perfect my diction, but to quiet my soul. At 70, I returned to the Shakespearean stage — something I once believed I had aged out of. But this time, I had nothing to prove. I stood on those boards with stillness, and audiences felt that. I was no longer performing. I was simply being. At 80, I took up watercolor painting. I painted flowers from my garden, old hats from my youth, and faces I remembered from the London Underground. Each painting was a quiet memory made visible. Now, at 95, I write letters by hand. I’m learning to bake rye bread. I still breathe deeply every morning. I still adore laughter — though I no longer try to make anyone laugh. I love the quiet more than ever. **I’m writing this to tell you something simple:** **Growing older is not the closing act. It can be the most exquisite chapter — if you let yourself bloom again.** Let these years ahead be your *treasure years*. You don’t need to be famous. You don’t need to be flawless. You only need to show up — fully — for the life that is still yours. *With love and gentleness,* — Patricia Routledge

Baby elephants come equipped with a trunk but they don't automatically know how to use it, so they always go through a phase of discovering they have a trunk and trying to figure out how it works

Wait for it… 😅😅 Do you like this? Y or N #stayinalive #beegees #dad #daughter

This is just ... priceless

@SeanMcNally12 @NAB I can’t get on.

@NAB is there an outage currently happening?

this dad and daughter routine is adorable

Orangutan at the Louisville Zoo in Kentucky wanted a closer look at one of its visitors, a 3-month-old human baby.

This is the best! Dog gets depressed because its house pool is closed for the winter. But then it gets a surprise.

@Ok_Solly I know exactly how you feel. 🥰

Honestly don’t know what I’d do without these two. My sunshine on the gloomiest of days #LoveYourPetDay

Have you ever seen how baby elephants sleep 😍

Awhina you do sound like a beautiful Mum. More concern over whether a new partner is good enough for your little boy rather than the new partner’s ability to accept you having a child. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏#MAFSAU

Remember, the Holocaust didn’t start with gas chambers in Auschwitz. It started with politicians dividing the people with “us vs. them”. It started with intolerance and hate speech. It started when people stopped caring, became desensitized, and turned a blind eye. Remember.

@Lone_Deranger_ That was my exact thought!

Not a dog person 🚩#MAFSAU #mafs
