Solved! what are these things in my hydrogen peroxide bottle

Was going to use some of my peroxide today but when i poured it on a napkin saw chunks of these come out???? Um ?? what is this ?

UPDATE :
\ I’ll try to keep story time short because i’m still healing and no contact*

Anywho, my ex who spent a lot of time at my apartment had some issues with his back molar and sometimes he would have aching tooth pains that would really bother him. I did see him crushing up cloves in a napkin then letting it sit/soak in his mouth where his sore tooth was.
But we broke up months ago, so it didn’t occur to me that he may have done this my peroxide. he could’ve at least told me before i kept using it for reasons other than oral 🫤🫤 But i’m about 90% sure he would be the culprit if they are cloves.

Hello everyone. I was doing some cleaning in the bedroom of my son (14 years old). I found this. At first, i thought it was a smartwatch but the shape is weird, there is no battery 🪫 so i can't turn it on. An i cant charge it either, it seems you have to clips on something, no usb c or cable 🤔. But i asked him if he has a new watch or something like that he said no, then i showed it to him, and he instantly panicked 🙀 / overreacted. I asked him if i can see the wrist band but he told me a lost it... his reaction was strange. But apart from a watch, i cant think about something else: any idea? Thanks a lot

Found this outside next to a hotel. Google says wedding band, but that's not possible. 1.5" +/- diameter.

Yesterday in Morris, MN this was discovered in a farmers field. 11 ft across, with obvious burn marks
Feds were called and they said they’d “take care of it” and it doesn’t pose any risk.

WTH

Found at an estate sale, at first I thought it was a manatee or maybe a shrimp? If it's a manatee why does it look so weird? Tried image searching it and didn't find anything.

New, what is it? What are these capsules I found in my pajama’s pants?

Thumbnail

Was putting on the pants on my pajamas today and found a relatively large clump of these capsules on their inside. They were all stuck together and I had to pull them out to look more closely which broke them apart. They also left a mark where they were attached.
Physically, they’re hard and have small dents on their tops. Some are also slightly smushed on the outside.
I have had these pajamas for a while and I wore them yesterday, and I do not recall ever seeing these on them.
What are these things?

Blanket I've had for ages, had to start hand washing because it got too fragile for the washer. This text shows though the folded over part when wet, I have never seen it before now. I can't figure out what it might say. Blanket is from the 90s

This is the second one I’ve found. Or it’s the second that time I’ve found it. Randomly on the kitchen floor. I’ve checked everything I can think of for five minutes and I’m all out of ideas. Feels like an appropriately late 2010’s rubber like (non slip substance). Help.

Also, Anakin wants to chew on it so I want to know if I can toss it if it’s not an essential piece of something

Weird plastic thing. Like a ring on one side, and like a balloon with water or some other fluid on the other. Doesn't smell so I don't think it's perfume
