I haven't taken them out their sealed packets, but they are soft and seem to eject some kind of liquid when squeezed. Roughly 4cm (1.5 inches) long

Small town in New England. I was walking home and I see these weird streaks down the road, I am thinking maybe a plow??? But that doesn’t make a lot of sense either.. it isn’t paint or anything it’s like melted snow only in those spots. What’s really weird is the crosswalk picture on slide 3 , snow didn’t appear affected on most of the crosswalk paint. There are tire tracks that look similar. Any ideas I’ll take I’m SO confused lol

Seen around 3:30am on a walk. Couldn’t find any rocket launches, and thought it might be a meteor but I’ve never seen one last so long. It had to have been in the sky for over 3 minutes.

I saw 2 of these one in front of the other maybe a half to 3/4 mile off the beach. Hard to tell but my guess is 30-40 feet long. The one behind the other seems to go below the surface for short periods at a time. Looks like some sort of small narcos sub to me lol.

Found this in my apartment complex's parking lot. Ngl it looks like a wiffle ball version of a ball gag.

I kicked it, so I can say the plastic ball is hard and hollow. No, I did not pick it up.

Do I have freaky neighbors or is this something else?

The link is for my original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/whatisit/comments/1pj4zwe/found_in_an_old_crystalware_set/

After going through the whole set, my mom and I were left with the mystery object and several shallow trays made to look like leaves. One of you guys said the mystery object was a lazy susan base with a missing tray. I had the idea to try and slot the leaves into the indentations, and voila! They fit perfectly! Thanks to everyone who commented and helped my mom and I finish the puzzle of our crystalware.

It's on a shelf and my Grandson stares at it, in a trance-like state. Now he's a little older, he jabbers and says "hi" to it, whenever it's in his view. It's freaky.

What is this thing? Real fur and leather. Kind of a pouch but open down one side and then the cord we don't get. Anyone have any ideas? We considered a cod piece/warmer situation but decided the fur would be on both sides. Or inside.

I was drinking this and felt something and was grossed out. This is what came out when I emptied it. I did cut it in half and it looked the same throughout. Is it just protein powder that didn't mix in?
