A huge abandoned church rotting away in Detroit

2025/5/24 Edited to

... Read moreDetroit is known for its rich and often tumultuous history, reflected in its numerous abandoned buildings, including churches. This abandoned church stands as a testament to the city’s past, showcasing stunning architecture now in decay. Urban exploration (urbex) enthusiasts are drawn to such sites, seeking to capture their eerie aesthetic and document their histories before they disappear completely. Many such locations tell stories of the city’s socio-economic shifts, with communities once thriving around these religious centers now long gone. As urban exploration grows in popularity, many are advocating for the preservation of such buildings, viewing them not only as relics but as essential parts of Detroit’s heritage. Engaging with these sites can raise awareness about the state of decay, the need for reconstruction, and the preservation of history. Photographers and adventurers alike capture these once-sacred spaces, breathing life into their narratives through images and stories shared across platforms like Lemon8. As you explore these stories, remember to respect the space, and consider the meaning these ruins hold in the broader context of urban life and history.

- Stop Bed Rotting -
We’ve all been there. Some days are harder than others and your battery is just empty. It can be hard to get up and get things done, let alone feel human. Rest, Relax, & GET BACK UP. A) Self Care: I know during these funks it can be hard for some people to even brush their hair, never mind

I know “rotting” is a new trend in self care and although I agree it’s important I hate the term “rotting” I’m not rotting, I’m existing outside of the constant demand for productivity. I’m watching my favorite nostalgic show, playing a low stakes, low tension game and snacking on a salty crunc

Car rotting 101
POV: you clock out and sit in your car for 20 minutes doing absolutely nothing because your brain needs a reboot. Car rotting is self-care and I stand by that. Be honest… how long do you sit in your car before going inside? I’m not sure if I should share how long I rot in here sometimes…🤣🤣

Bed rotting ? … at what cost ?
Luxury isn’t about things. It’s about self-control, vision, and execution. You’re allowed to feel tired. You’re allowed to feel unmotivated. But your best self lives on the other side of doing the “thing” anyway. Mood comes and goes. Goals require standards. Every time you choose discipl
