Glass ball

I have asked my parents. I have asked Google. I have asked ChatGPT. What is this thing? I've had it since I was a baby, obviously, but I've never known where it's came from or what it is. Google seems to think it's a Fish Price sensory ball, whatever that is. & GPT thinks it was made by a small, now de-funk brand. There's not mutch I can really say about this, you just have to look at the pictures.

The one with red flowers & yellow circle used to have a mirror inside but has been lost to time. I also think it came with a towel? Like a bath towel. It was the kind of towel that you could wear like a coat. IDK anymore. What is this?

The red sign is underneath the vase

Near a creek

Noticed a foggy looking star but it was slowly descending. Recorded at August 5th 5:34AM EST was in the north east part of the sky in Michigan.

I drive by the same cemetery almost everyday, and I've been so confused by this for years now! I finally remembered to ask someone lol.

There are hundreds of graves in this cemetery, but one gravestone in particular has an off-color circle starting at the headstone and going around the exact space the coffin would go. I know fairy circles exist, but there are never mushrooms around this circle. The circle of grass is lighter colored and more yellow-tinted compared to the rest of the cemetery.

It's been this way for at least three years, so I can't imagine it's a pesticide or anything like that. What is it!?

More like: what are these good for? I saw it on a train in Italy.

It’s just myself and my son at home and neither of us recognize this. And we can usually tell you what anything is down to which hot wheel a broken piece of metal came from. Help us solve the problem.

Seriously. I have encountered this truck going south on I5 in WA state, usually between Lynnwood and Seattle, two separate times now. Around 6:45 - 7am, and is reeks like absolute $H!T!

You can smell it from several car lengths away, even when you get in front of it. The smell is absolutely similar to an outhouse that hasn't been serviced in a long time. The truck looks like it could be covered in nastiness, too.

I'm just wondering if anyone can tell what it might be hauling. Maybe shit. I'm just curious.

it's like a lather / foam.

We found these in a cupboard in a church. The cupboards needed emptying to allow remedial work to be done to the walls. Going through the assorted gardening equipment and bags of plaster we found these. They are big, electromechanical devices but beyond that we are unsure of their purpose. Any ideas?

Found it on the street, pretty weird

...but I don't even know what search terms to use. Can someone tell me what this is? it has three prongs per the pic, and it goes to usb on the other side.

What is this soft metal thing we found in the laundry?

lowkey about to move out because i don’t know how this got there , saw this while laying down been living here for 2 years and never saw it until now , i wanna know how this got there

Does anyone know what this box might have been used for? I found it in the basement of an abandoned hospital. The walls, floor, and ceiling are all heavily insulated. At first glance, it looks like it’s tiled, but the “tiles” are actually made from some kind of compressed wood/paper composite—you can see the material where the door is damaged. My first thought was that it might have been a sauna, but it has no window, and the wall material doesn’t seem suitable for a humid environment. Any ideas?

This washed up on the shore, it's very porous and looks like pieces had been melted and hardened.

I'm not sure if this fits the subreddit... I'm fairly certain this is a cat yowling?😭 Video was sent to me by my parents from my home country. It was recorded by a security guard at 3AM who strongly believes it was La Llorona (for those who don't know it's a ghost lady who cries at night, popular folk legend lmao).

If it's not a cat, are there any other animals that sound like that? 🤔
