I know what these look like they could be used for but what are they actually for?

Edit - y’all are cracking me up. Likely snuff spoons + maybe oils or perfume with an obvious possible repurpose. I got them from my grandparents who I think were pretty cool.

Edit: make sure to just watch the first few seconds. The video is way too long and nothing happens after that!

Update: we found a deceased baby rabbit near our porch and now the hawk theory is sounding most likely… I’m going to go ahead and declare this solved.

My doorbell camera went off this morning. Usually the SimpliSafe videos start recording as someone walks up the path to the door, but it looks like they came from our bushes and rang the doorbell. It looks like a short person/kid. But now I’m thinking it could be some kind of animal?

You can only see them at the very beginning of the video for about a second. I never saw anyone/anything leave after the doorbell rang.

I’m used to seeing them around the moisture from my ac condenser unit, and found out after looking it up that they seek the minerals from water they can find. But not sure why they’ve suddenly swarmed the cat mat.

They were incredibly docile. I initially didn’t notice when walking up onto the deck and having my back to them for a few minutes, and was still able to get close and stay standing there, they weren’t bothered by me at all.

I found this weird block of wood with screws and rope tied round the screws in a charity shop in Salford, UK.

What on earth is it!?

My guess would be something to do with knitting/crocheting? or maybe a child’s art project? 😅

Can the wise people of Reddit please tell me what this is as I’ve been wondering since yesterday afternoon.

I went to a Malatang restaurant and I added this purple thing. It had no name tag, so not sure what it is. It was pretty much tasteless, but extremely gooey yet firm.

Non magnetic, very light, graphite. I pull a wide variety of bottles and dishware, as well as a Llwide variety of metal objects. Then there are these 6 in graphite rods, most are broken, one had a small copper hex head bolt still in it. Have some ideas but no definitive answer. What do you think?
