if you add undescribed images to other people's posts, especially when that person is physically disabled and puts in the effort to try and describe every image they post or share, you're ableist.

If your response to being told to add an image description to your reblog or delete the images and ask everyone who reblogged it from you to do the same is to condescend to the disabled person asking you not to make their post inaccessible, you're just being ableist on purpose now.

One last rose is still flowering

19-9-2021, a last rose is still going strong.

Rose hips.

(...) A young girl and a boy from Saint-Malo had promised to marry ; but the parents refused their consent, because the young man did not have enough money. To prevent any relationship between them, the father put his daughter in the convent. The lover, in despair of this separation, then went to town, hoping to see her again but he did not succeed. So, to bid farewell to his beloved, he placed a bouquet of wild roses in front of the convent gate. It is said that a branch took root and since all that time the rose bush still exists.

We tried in vain to pull it out, it was sometimes cut, it continues to grow again, neither the great winters nor the long droughts make it die.

In Sebillot, The folklore of France : the flora, p 93.
