TIL of a thousand year old rosebush in Hildesheim Germany. It even survived world war two, despite the fact that the church it grows next to was destroyed by allied bombers.

#again an example of the absolute nihilism of plants that i love so much#this plant is completely unaware that its lived a thousand years#look theres a little plague in front of her!!! humans are so amazed by her age!!!!!!#but is she amazed by her age? no. #she knows only that she seeks nuntrient.#she is above our petty hominid conflicts and admiration#look at her vines coming off!!!! she is seeking more structures upon which to place her glucose manufacturing organs!!!!#she demands another trellis from her underlings!!!!!!!

3. This rosebush is probably a fixture in local bee religion.

This is my cat, Brigitte.

24 hours after I brought her home, I got a mindblowing job offer.  Since I adopted her nine years ago, my life has become an amusement park.  She has brought me good luck ever since I took her into my home.

I’m telling you, there’s something about this animal.  Good fortune follows her everywhere.

I don’t want to be selfish.  I have everything I need and then some.  So, I’m sharing her with you.

Reblog Brigitte and you’ll receive fantastic news in the next 24 hours.

And when you do, please remember to help your local SPCA and support them in the difficult work they do for wonder animals like Brigitte.  Any donation helps your SPCA, even if it’s just five bucks.

Kitties like Brigitte are counting on you to give back when they bring you good luck.

Thanks, and congratulations on your good news!
