To preface, I'm keeping these plants alive mostly by accident. Was moving these around to clean up/thinking about repotting some of them.. and I found this.
It's made a bunch of tendrils(?), one of which seems to have drilled into the floor. Like, its really in there.
Does it want more dirt? Is it coming for my brain? What's going on?

I hope you’re not renting
It’s literally searching for dirt. It went all the way outside to find some.😂
It found more water! Unfortunately, it looks like that shower may have a moisture problem.
it’s an aerial root that went looking for moisture and found some. it won’t hurt to trim it
It’s an aerial root by the looks of it. You can cut these off monsteras and it won’t really matter.

Trying to escape
Define toy making a break for it!
It’s escaping

Is that coming from the outside to the inside?
Unreal💀🤣🤣
“Is it coming for my brain?” 😂😂😂
But yea it might be.
It’s trying to find an internet connection.
Poor fucker is desperately trying to climb. It wants something to grab onto! Give it a moss pole or a trellis or something after you cut that aerial root
It’s escaped.
That’s so crazy! Amazing these living things that has no eyes or ears can tell where sun or the ground is at and how can it tell and know that the hole is there and can squeeze threw it
it’s trying to absorb your moisture problem
It ain’t hard to trim your plants once in a while. In fact it’s actually easier than posting on reddit…

Nature..uh..finds a way.
Moving out of home! Leaving the nest!
Cant wait to see what r/plantcirclejerk does with this
Look like black mold forming by the window/door. Get that looked at(it’s dangerous and can make you sick)
Free moisture/mold detection
Nature always finds a way
Your house is so dirty….
Free him.
It thirsts…
The problem is your house has been softened by moisture leakage so much that it can be penetrated by a Monstera root
aerial roots looking for water/support lol, you can cut them if you need, the plant will be fine
Sidebar, with a name like beerdonair, are you from the east coast of Canada?
Braaaaainnssssss
Looking for dirt and following the moisture. Looks like it found it
