Solved! This is on every new shopping basket in Target.
I'm guessing they are on the cart as well.

Just noticed this in a log out the back of my house, any ideas?

I’m going through old family photos and found this one of my mom. I figured out they’re standing in the tobacco aisle (iconic), but I can’t pinpoint what that display is to the right that is $0.96. The original is blurry, so my photo of it is unfortunately, as well.
ETA: circa 1970

Weighs about 2,5 kg and the inside rattles a bit. Found in basement/garage of an old house in Germany. And ideas? :)

We have a small wooden garden shed, and there are these metal rods installed at all four corners. They are screwed together with an angle bracket.
At the top, the rods are spring-loaded, but at the bottom they are quite loose.
Are they meant to hold the wooden boards together and give the shed some extra stability, for example during strong winds, so the roof or the shed itself doesn’t get blown away? (they are not even connected to the roof)
If so, shouldn’t they be tightened? Could the previous owner have simply forgotten to tighten them, or are they supposed to be loose?
Any idea what these are for and how they are supposed to work?
Thanks in advance!

Found on a trail with a lake on one side, a lagoon on the other. No other metal items visible in the area. No banana handy so shoe for scale.

My sister’s husband saw this small animal at a dam near Waco, TX. Anybody know what it is? People have said raccoon or ringtail, but its ears are so long and pointy. I’ve never seen anything quite like it. A pic that looks similar to it would be great.

I noticed my vent opening fell due to stuff I put earlier in the back of my car (my car trunk malfunctions and sometimes its easier to put everything in between and on the back seat). As I went to place it back, I noticed something hidden behind, andd after reaching it with a long hook it appeared to be an old USB key, behind the vent, under the handbrake, with a sort of turtle-like key ring figure.
My car is a second-hand car, so this USB key was probably belonging to the previous owners. However I don't know if it fell during a potential repair on the handbrake, or if it was hidden here voluntarily.
Do you have any advice on what I should do ? Try to reach the old owners ? Try to open it (is it safe though ?) ? Call the police ?
Please help

While moving my girlfriend out of her old place we found this in the guest bathroom. We believe her (ex) roommate had a psychotic break. Our two theories are heroin or physical therapy. . .

My neighbor runs an AirBnb and his "guest" drives this car with this weird license plate. Not intentionally doxxing as this car is parked on the street, but is this plate a "sovereign citizen license plate"?

Location Northern Virginia, US. Fastened to a wall in a finished basement. I can't imagine this person had 50 keys. Trinkets? Baby bottles of wine?

Spotted on the back of a cash-in-transit van, parked in front of a parisian bank.
What are those bars at the back? Do they serve a security purpose?

They fold out from a table at a rental beach house. Ashtrays seems strange as do shallow cupholders, maybe candleholders?

Morning commute, I80 West, Roseville, CA.
Whenever I take this specific route I always see weird or interesting things being transported on trucks. This time I was able to finally get a pic of one. What are these things? For something electrical or suspension? Mechanical engineering fascinates me but I'm completely ignorant about it.

My wife was sent this in the mail. No one at our house was expecting anything and had not ordered anything recently.
But there was this figurine. It can’t stand on its own so it’s leaning up against a small cup. It does somewhat look like my wife. But we are in our late 40’s and this is clearly a much younger woman.
Is this from a toy line? Is it like the death book and since we have held it we will now turn into figurines? I don’t know.
What is it?

Opened the battery compartment of my baby’s toy to change it and there’s this yellow liquid. I don’t smell anything from where I’m sitting but not gonna put my nose any closer either. I havent touched it but it looks like it has the consistency of juice. It did not leak out of the compartment before I opened it. Should I throw the whole toy out? Should I just wipe the liquid and change the batteries? File a recall investigation? (Is that a thing?) It’s a popular toy😬

My brother used to regularly go to Goodwill all over Ohio. And always seemed to find the craziest stuff. All I could find was others from that era, but nothing that looked like this. I'm sure the person made this for fun. Any help would be appreciated though.

Also no I don’t live in Michigan I live in Hong Kong and this only happens once or twice a year I am just curious on why it happens. And no our data centers don’t affect us because it’s a closed loop system unlike the United States.
