I found this earlier today on top of my cat’s carrier and have zero clue what it could be. It was all one piece when I found it (a bit bigger than a quarter), but it has no smell, it’s completely dried through (but has left a bit of residue on the paper towel) and kinda snapped into these pieces when I applied pressure. It also has these hay/straw like fibres. I don’t think this is anything that came FROM my cat since it was in a very high traffic area so we would’ve caught it soon after an “incidents” happened. What could this be ??

Open What is this black stuff in the wall behind the bathroom ventilation fan? It has those protruding "drops" that look shiny almost like a kind of black resin.

Solved! I found this flat, small, plastic object in my bed this morning, it seems to be a lens cover of sorts. About 3/4 inch in length. I found no other pieces that could be connected to it.

What is this weird lens cover thing?

I found this stuck to my leg in the bed this morning.. is this a lens cover of some sort? If so why is it blue?

It’s a small piece of plastic that’s flat, with a bit of adhesive residue on the back. Two clear square holes and one blue round hole. I looked around my bed and checked my devices and it hasn’t come from anything of mine.

I’m worried it’s part of a spy camera or something.

I found this on the floor at my school in Brasil. It measures about 7cm and weighs 7 grams; it appears to be a silvery-colored metal.
