I saw this critter chilling on my back steps yesterday. I think it has taken up residence under a shed in the backyard. I'm in central Indiana.

Does anyone know what this is?

Edit: I didn't want to admit it in the post but we are currently in the process of getting divorced, recently enough that it's not my new normal and it's kind of embarisng. I would love to ask him but he's currently somewhere in Mexico doing god knows what.

He's also not the outdoorsy type, and hasn't been camping for over 15 years.

It's been rolling around under the passenger seat for a while, then lived in the glove box, now someone actually asked me what is was and... I have no idea. I thought it might be important somehow so never threw it away!

Solved! What are these weird jelly balls from my garden (PNW)

Post image

Found dozens of these in a garden bed in southwest Washington, where I’m growing clover. They appeared seemingly overnight and are about 1 cm across.

They’re translucent, slightly bluish, and feel like tiny water balloons. I can gently roll one between my fingers, but if I apply pressure, it pops.

They’re scattered throughout the wood mulch. Any idea what they are? Fungus, slime mold, eggs, or something else?

I have no idea what this is. It's kind of squishy. Doesn't have a smell. I can't think of anything I have this could have come from. It's dusty so I'm guessing my cat played with it for a while before putting it in his bowl.

I was riding the bus the other day and found this on the floor (key for scale).

It looks “diamond” encrusted, but they’re so small it’s hard to tell. Open at the top with a hallow interior.

Any ideas?

Edit:
• As previously mentioned, key for scale.
• Inside is NOT threaded, so I don’t think it’s a valve stem cap. It also didn’t fit on the valve stem I had handy. Though, it is a great suggestion.
• A decorative stud from a purse or jewelry is probably correct.

This got returned to sender a few months after we bought our house, and with no way to contact the previous owner, I'm not sure what this thing is or what it was used for.

Obviously they're Pokémon cards, but it appears to be a nearly complete set of something I don't have the adequate knowledge to understand.

New, what is it? What chewed a hole through my banana?

Thumbnail

I bought these bananas yesterday from Trader Joe’s and this morning. I woke up to see a hole in the banana. I know it couldn’t have happened that long ago because the banana has yet to oxidize except for the parts around the peel. I didn’t notice until I picked it up and pulled it from the bunch that there are also shavings next to the banana which means whatever did this didn’t eat the peel. Or did was it in the banana? I’m losing my mind. Does someone know what did this? I am so scared that it’s a mouse or a rat. No other food was eaten in the area and nothing else is disturbed.

Edit: The consensus has been rodent, most likely a mouse. I’m going to get traps. Live trap is my first option, but they are oddly hard to find in the area and I do not want to wait to get them delivered. As scared, as I am having a rodent in the house, I very much dislike the idea of getting a kill trap. The Victor Safe-Set mouse traps are the ones in store near me and it’s disturbing seeing the outcome. Glue I know is super inhumane and it may what I have to use. Mostly irrelevant but I am vegetarian and throwing a live glue trapped mouse away is haunting. Recommendations are welcome…scolding for my aversion to traps is also welcome.

Hi everyone! My cam caught this creature walking through my neighbor’s yard and we can’t quite identify what it is. At first I thought it might be a deer but the head isn’t the right size. I also thought maybe it could be a larger breed dog like a Great Dane, but the body doesn’t seem to fit that either. Sorry if it’s hard to see from this footage, but does anyone have any clue what this is? I’ll post still image as well.

Edit: I live in the Midwest
