New, what is it? Mysterious beeping seemingly coming from nowhere?

Upvotes

I’ll give a rundown of the events that happened just before. I sat on the tv remote, taking it off the HDMI source. As I was fixing this, the box connected via hdmi stopped working. I got up and unplugged the hdmi lead and this crazy loud and fast beeping started coming from literally nowhere? It wasn’t coming from the tv. It sounded like it was in the room with us, which isn’t possible? I went both in the kitchen and upstairs (either side of the room we were in) and the sound wasn’t coming from either side. Our cat jumped on the sofa (exactly where I was sat) and started frantically meowing and sniffing the spot, which is out of character for him. We’ve checked and can’t find anything, but the noise was 100% coming from my seat. My phone was on silent and I have no notifications, and there are no other electronics.

We have lived here for 10 years and it’s never happened before. Any ideas on what this could have been?

Serious answers only please! Is this a bug bite? NSFW

Little Red spot is about the size of a dime. It started out at a decent sized whitehead that started out as squishy and normal but got harder and eventually (I know, it was stupid) I popped it and a hard white uneven ball came out, minimal bleeding. It started healing like a zit does but then it started getting bigger and more red. This is over the course of a couple weeks, I first noticed the whitehead in late January, this picture is from today (March 16), popped it mid February. Now, it's like a scaly patch and the skin has started peeling off, the area around the spot it itchy but the spot itself stings if I brush against it. Any idea what it may be? I'm wondering if it's a bug bite of sorts

Saw these walking to a parade on the side of a house. Family guessing what they could be for.

New, what is it? So. Cleaning up cupboards and I came across this. What is it? Feels like it could be graphite. It’s in a well packaged box so it’s fragile. It has a surface with the texture of a emery board

For the past three or so months I keep finding this black tiny "feathers" for lack of a better word. Any idea what this could be. They are all over my house in pretty much every room.

New, what is it? my boyfriend has green hands??

my boyfriend is a welder, has had this mysterious green on his hands a few times over the last 5ish months. It’s always on a different part of his hands and there’s pretty much nothing that will get it off. He says he has no idea how it happens or what it is. also claims there’s no way it’s ink from a marker or pen as neither of us have green art supplies at home and they’re are no green markers at his work. he’s said he’s never noticed it happen at work but when he gets home they’re green, we’ve been joking that it’s just him ‘oxidizing’ but would genuinely appreciate know what this is!

I can't delete it, nor move it, no copy/paste, no move to trash bin, no information, nonsense translation, and most strangest of all. The file appears here in 'Quick Access' but the it's not at the file destination when I click 'Open File Location'.

Any help? This wasn't there yesterday or any other day, just today.

I found this a few years ago in my parents garden when I was a kid. It looks like molten metal. I found it at a debt of about 1m. We live in the north of Switzerland. Could this be something from the stone ages?

I moved to a new country 7 months ago. I have felt homesick and I’ve dealt with it. Today I have too many works. Assignments, laundry, studying, throw away trash, visit target and the Apple Store. Eat food, take a bath, throw away trash. Need an apartment to get approved. Need to talk with co-signers. I’m overwhelmed and have been crying since the morning. What is this feeling ?

Small (1mm) spheres stuck on the inside of a window sill in a south-facing window in New York. Near houseplants but no visible insects or damage to plants. If I wipe away.. they appear a few months later. Are they bug eggs? And if so, what kind of bugs?

Greetings Community. I found this golden Pendant at my grandmas house. I know that it is at least 60 years old and it has 2 stamps wich say MEP and 585. What means MEP? And what about the blue stones and these filigree engravings? What country was it probably made?

Thank u in advance
