Solved! Cats found this, maybe in the kitchen? (butter for scale)
I think the kitties found this in the kitchen (the naughtiest of boys can open drawers), no idea what it is .. spouse also has no idea. it's rubbery, slightly flexible
smol update: no one in the house smokes ... does seem like it'd be something that would slide onto something else, not threaded inside.

Solved! Some kind of media device. Time machine II. Black device with media hookups and antennas.
I bought this on a whim for $2 at a garage sale.
I think its some kind of media device but I am having trouble finding anything concrete on it.
Google searches and ai are not being helpful as of yet.
Anyone know what this is for sure and what it does?
Thank you.

New, what is it? A device with a mounting bracket, a male USB A, a 16gb SD card, a button, and a IR(?) bulb.
Found in the trunk of my used car by the spare tire. I really struggled to even describe it. I do have a trash computer to plug it into, but before I do I figured I’d ask in case it’s something interesting which I’d risk frying. My guess was an accessory for a camera slave flash, but why it has an SD card is beyond me.

Solved! This was lying on the sidewalk near a trash barrel in the City.
I’d never seen anything like it. The tube is approximately 3 to 4 feet long and the nozzle part about 4 inches wide. I did not have a banana handy. There are two photos, and yes, I did flip the tag but did not include that photo. I’ll put it in the comments later.
EDIT: Tag photo and answer in comments

Solved! Metal spring thing found in driveway
Found this in my driveway, and hoping it didn't come off of one of the cars. It's a strip of metal wound up into some sort of spring? I can't unroll it, and it doesn't appear to have any stamps or writing. Possible cars would be '97 miata or '16 subaru crosstrek. I assume off of a car due to where I found it, but it could also be from gardening equipment, or a mysterious third thing. Any ideas?

Solved! Cat sculpture made to hold 2 of... something
Got this at a Goodwill. Little cat statuette that's about 8 inches tall and the holes are like 1.5 inches each. I'm wondering what this guy was originally made to hold or what he could possibly be used to hold now.

Solved! Hard Lightweight Tan/White Tennis Ball Size, Triangular Shaped Bone like Object Found on Lake Erie
Stopped at Shades Beach State Park outside Harborcreek, PA. Found this on the beach of Lake Erie. Was hard like a bone, pyramid shaped material that was about the size of a tennis ball maybe. Flipped it over with a stick, and it has these white hard circles all over it. Seems like a bony part of an animal, but I am not sure. I didn't pick it up, but it didn't seem like it weighed much. I also attached a picture of the beach. It was found on in case that might be helpful. Would love to know what this odd thing that was washed up on shore is!

Solved! bought from a thrift store, what the hell is it meant to be used as
Saw this at a thrift store and had to buy it cause it called to me, have no idea what it actually is though. too big to be a ring and too small to be a bracelet. Thought maybe it could be a brass knuckle but it doesn't seem to be good for that. It doesn't unhook anywhere, it's just a solid oval.

New, what is it? Please help me figure out what movie/show this is. Going on like 22 years of trying to figure this out.
Okay. I am taking a random shot in the dark here. Have never posted on reddit ever (just doom scroll at night when my anxiety is already high cause why not add fuel to the fire right) but figured yall might be able to help....so when I was younger (born in 99) I watched some animated movie/show (stg it was care bears) where these brightly colors bear like animals (can see how cars bears comes to mind) wake up before their human child owner and they wanna help make her breakfast so they slide down the upstairs railing to the kitchen and start trying to cook toast but it burns and ofc they destroy the kitchen in the process and it really wasnt very helpful but "its the thought that counts" kinda situations yknow what I mean? One of those predictable childhood lesson learning things. ANYWAY. I cannot remember what its from and everyone I have asked is at a loss and quite frankly over me asking them. Google has failed me and I am hoping that some other Redditor had this shared experience because I am beginning to believe it was some insanely vivid for some reason memorable dream lol.....so yea Reddit do your thing

New, what is it? Weird hair thing in a house I’m watching
On a post in the basement. I’m housesitting currently and have no clue what it is, and I’m too anxious to text the owners. I don’t think it’s human hair, as the fibres seem to be attached to some skin. They’re catholic, if that matters at all. We’re also in Canada. I’ve got no clue.

I noticed these weird little crystals in the unfinished dirt in my basement.
Maybe a fungus, I guess, but they looked inorganic at a glance.

Solved! No idea what this is.
My mom is a school bus driver and someone left this today. The four balls are a single piece and feel heavy for their size. The black case zips open and closed.

New, what is it? What is this?
It was the size of my palm and pretty circular. I’m in SW Missouri. I feel like it’s a silly simple answer but I don’t think I’ve seen anything like this before.
Thanks everyone!
