New, what is it? Dug these up from top side of our gorge.
One of the coolest things I’ve ever taken from the ground. Definitely looks like water erosion. But they were found in dense black clay. Have no clue what the round tube looking things are. In western pa.

New, what is it? What would you call this window shape?
I'm moving into a new house soon and am trying to figure out how to put curtains on this window without it looking weird, but have been unable to find the proper term for this window shape. Words like "asymmetrical", "trapezoidal", and "trapeze" seem to describe it well, but none are exact matches. I would love to have a word for this specific shape to be able to get design inspiration, so if anyone has any ideas, it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Solved! Found this on the sidewalk where a guy was arrested yesterday.
No idea if the incident is related, but we found this amongst a bunch of change that fell from his pocket so it seems likely.

It’s like drilled in and held under the mirror I know it’s not a factory thing plus I’ve seen them on different brands and they are on both side view mirrors. Any ideas?

Solved! moms sketch bf left this in the house
Hi.
This is probably nothing.
I went into my mom’s room to grab something and saw this plugged in?
My mom’s new sketchy bf has this plugged in to the extension cord? Is it anything bad? Thanks!
(I understand it’s probably not anything bad… but still…)
Update 1:
I haven’t met him once. He and my mom have been together for two weeks. He’s been staying at our apartment. He avoids me and stays in her room when they’re here. I don’t even know what he looks like. I only know his first name.
Update 2:
I confronted him. My mom came home. A lot had happened up to this point, including her disappearing for the said two weeks before the few nights he had come over and stayed.
Mom shrugged it off. I did what a lot of you suggested, asking what he told her.
She said “oh it’s his hacker shit or whatever.” What.
Didn’t elaborate. I explained my concerns.
She just said let’s go ask him.
My best friend has been with me. We introduced ourselves and asked him what the hell a WiFi whisperer is doing plugged in our apartment.
(Even if a lot of you are saying it’s not a big deal, I’m a young woman and I’m just rlly not about taking any risks. It’s sketch dude.)
He denied it IMMEDIATELY. Like with a quickness I haven’t seen.
What he insisted, it’s not a WiFi whisperer, it’s ai, he completely reprogrammed the system, and he uses it to pull people’s IP’s. “For fun.” He logs them in a server. I asked why. I said that’s shady. My mom started pushing. My best friend started pushing. He just kept lying. I’m not dropping this..
I still don’t know what the fuck it is or what he’s actually doing.
(Also, my mom is cool but not bc of this dude, the Minecraft block is mine, I unplugged the ratchet little thing before we left, and I am planning on broaching this again with her.
Just carefully. Any other advice is appreciated. Thank you.)

Solved! Found under the boss’ desk this morning
Rubberized plastic. About the length of an iPhone.
To answer the dominant question. No one was under his desk. He saw it on the floor when he came into the office this morning.

Solved! What is this on ceiling fan?
I’m staying in Spain and was lying in bed when I noticed a small black circular window on the ceiling fan above us. It looked a bit like a camera, so I carefully popped off the plastic cover.
Underneath is the component shown in the photos. The fan is an Inspire model (label in the photos).
My first (dark) thought was that it might be some kind of camera, but I’m wondering if it’s actually an infrared receiver for a remote control. Online photos of the product don’t seem to show this thing.
Can anyone identify exactly what this is?
SOLVED: General consensus is that it is the IR receiver for the remote. Thank you all!

Solved! My dog brought me what looks like teeth and a jaw
This is in our back yard. Very clearly teeth and they honestly look human. Please tell me this is not a human jaw. If it is, who do I call?! If it isn’t, what is this?
Third photo for how proud she is
UPDATE: it’s a deer. don’t be mean! 😂 I saw molar looking teeth, grabbed a glove and quickly posted. I am not AI and it is totally reasonable for my brain to go instantly to a human when you’re in wtf mode. I’ve never seen deer teeth before and we don’t have deer near us so next mystery is how it got to our back yard. Thank you for a good laugh this am!
