Warning: Contains spoilers for Stranger Things Season 3.

There is nothing quite like the binge-happy feeling of elation you get when a new Stranger Things season drops -- or, by contrast, the yawning sense of despair you feel when it's all over again.

This is the dilemma of having a TV season go live all at once. It's great at the beginning -- so many new hours of stuff to watch! -- but over far too quickly.

Fear not, though, because there are some things in this world that remain constant. David Harbour's Instagram feed is one of them. We may not be able to see Hawkins' chief of police on screen again anytime soon (or ever again, if you don't believe the theories), but that doesn't mean we can't get the sweet bearded content we all crave.

From stanning Joe Keery to cuddling various dogs, here are some of the big man's best Instagram posts...

1. The time he made an adorable new friend.

2. This impressively chiselled throwback.

3. And this adorable one.

4. The time he showed his love for his Stranger Things co-star Winona Ryder.

5. And Joe Keery.

6. Seriously, the Joe Keery love is strong on Harbour's Instagram feed.

7. (As in really, really strong.)

8. The time he hung out with some ducks.

9. And got on a boat to go track down some 'guins.

10. The time he compared himself to his younger co-stars.

11. And then did it again.

12. Okay, one more time.

13. The time he gloated over a Stranger Things-themed Monopoly win.

14. The time he cheerfully mocked himself.

15. Then did it again.

16. This glorious photo with co-star Millie Bobby Brown.

17. The time he danced like no-one was watching.

18. The time he showed his love of our four-legged friends.

19. And they, in turn, showed their love for him.

20. The time he refused to play by the rules.

21. The time he posted this gloriously-captioned image.

22. The time he opted for this rather fetching festive look.

23. The time he celebrated the beginning of Stranger Things.

24. And the time he celebrated its massive popularity.

25. Finally, the time he continued to support his cast-mates even after Hopper's alleged death.

You're not fooling anyone, David. We know he'll be back.
