Abandoned AmericaA hallway in an abandoned tuberculosis hospital. Note that ceilings generally are not supposed to do that.

I don't mean to toot my own toots here, but I absolutely love surreal things in abandoned places and this ceiling/wall is one of my underrated favorites. It was pretty dark in this part and it legit took me a minute or three to figure out wtf I was looking at
Also I had to squeeze between that ceiling and the door to get to the rest of the floor and that did not feel like one of the highlights on the Abandoned America Wise Decisions List, let me tell you
Tilly Bridges@AbandonedAmerica yeah I WAS GONNA SAY! yikes
@tillybridges there are a lot of things I've done that were not in retrospect what I would call "smart"
@AbandonedAmerica I mean, me too, but at least you get great photos out of them! 😬
@tillybridges thank you! Being a fool does pay off sometimes I suppose 😄
Stygian Lizard@AbandonedAmerica "squeezing between the ceiling and door" is not a combination of words I would expect to witness. And yet.
@shadyspotlight such is the strange life I lead 🥰
TransitBiker@AbandonedAmerica it’s disassembling itself.
CaseyLCeiling melting in on itself, Inception style.
Yes, toot your own toot! You're a hardier sort than me. I don't think the crawling and squeezing part would bother me much; it's the lifeforms living in the ruins that would terrify me.
I salute you!
@CaseyL thanks! For the most part I don't run into animals or squatters. Spiders, though, are definitely present.
"For the most part" is doing some heavy lifting there :)
Gavin Volure’s Peanut Butter@AbandonedAmerica big fan of self-retooting here. I would’ve missed this terrific photo if you hadn’t tooted your own toot, so thank you.
@iBlame thank you my friend! My innate tendency to be a bit of a wallflower makes me feel weird about it but I guess I have to start breaking that tendency down if I want to get anywhere
