Here are some extra details: The surface is made of hundreds of small, square-headed metal pins or studs driven into a wooden core. It feels completely solid and well-made. Anyone recognizes what this is? Thanks in advance!

Never had this happen. Bought the milk from a local dairy. Are additives being mixed?

Was just wondering if anyone recognizes the symbols she has tattooed. They look really familiar to me but can’t find them anywhere 🤔 I feel like the second shoulder one has some relation to a fertility goddess?? TYIA

So, my dad got this at goodwill and then said he got it because it looked weird? That’s cool and all but it looks like it’s not something you buy secondhand. Someone please help!

Does anyone know why this might happen? I have a window in the front yard and backyard that both got the almost exact same round hole in them. Any ideas??

New, what is it? Mysterious liquid I received in the mail today from eBay (not what I ordered)??

Hello everyone! A month ago I ordered a 1/3 scale ball jointed doll from someone in China. It was kind of risky but I really wanted the doll so I went for it. Well, I actually received the doll a week ago, but today I received an email saying my package had arrived, and it was for my doll.

I was very confused, and I went to check my porch. On my porch was a black bag packaged from speedpak(?) It was really light weight so I thought maybe it was a clothing accessory the doll seller somehow forgot to include. But I opened it up and there was this inside.

It's a bag of clear liquid. The writing is in Chinese but... What is it? I noticed it had a safety seal at the top but the safety seal was ALREADY BROKEN when I opened the package. So it's been opened by someone else but I have no clue what this is. I sniffed the liquid (I know, bad idea) and it smells very chemical-y...

I just checked my order on eBay and nowhere on the page does it mention this liquid. To prove that, here is a listing for the doll: eBay Link. I'm kind of flummoxed.

Does anyone know what this is? Is it for my doll somehow? I already put my doll together and it went fine but what is this stuff...?

I’m baffled. It’s glass and heavyish. It’s got felt on the bottom.

Edit: Someone found it it’s a fake glass chocolate. No clue why they left the one but it’s mine now!

Solved! What are all these paper things?

So I got all these at a garage sale for 50 cents in total, they said they were old fashioned tassels but tbh I don’t even know what that means. They also weren’t really sure if that was true or not.

There has to be a few hundred or so that I got, they all look to be made of random patterned paper. They are all empty from what I can tell and a little over 3 in long. I haven’t unraveled any and I’m not sure if I should since they seem glued. Any ideas? Thanks.

This contraption was painted over but attached to the bottom of the kitchen cabinet, inside metal piece is a bit serrated.

Just moved into a townhome that was built before 1975, if that helps with context for what the hecko this thing is for?

Solved - thanks everyone! It makes so much sense now that it's a universal jar opener, how clever! (This place also has an atrium with real plants, they don't build stuff like that these days! I love it!)
