Solved! 3 pipes, about 15 feet tall, very near a Giant Sméagol gas station
The title describes the things. They were quite close to a Giant Eagle gas station in Ohio.

I’ve noticed these recently on all the power poles in my neighborhood. They look like they were screwed in but I’m not sure how that would work since they’re apparently plastic. I’m curious what these are for.

From season 2 of Top Boy, in a kitchen you can see this island plus this black reflective? elevated thingy that may be a flat grill??( but why put a faucet and a small sink??) But then there is a regular normal sink in the background plus a normal gas range.
Anyway, does anyone know what this is please?

Found outside on my front stoop in San diego. Seems to have some oils in it. I have young kids, but they don't know of anything.

This is a picture booklet of my great grandmother from sometime in the late 19th century. My mother thinks it might be a dance card, but it doesn't look like any I've seen online. It's all made from card stock other than the onion paper like inner cover.

Looks pretty obviously some form of ordnance to me but what specific kind?
Also, how to tell if it's been decommissioned?

It may have been released from the pocket of someones' trousers while washing.
Could be from a toy? Or a disposable transport fixture? Or a functional part of some apparatus?

Noticed these weird spots on the bathroom wall. I’ll do my best to describe the size/location.
I’ll do my best if there are any additional questions in comments

Roughly 4cm across, plastic and very light. Found in filter section of a Hoover dishwasher, under the filter plate.
Dishwasher currently will not work and displays an error suggesting a filter error.

This thing is on the wall in my kitchen, next to the stove. It looks like it’s been moved (based on the marks to the top left, but I have no clue what it is, what function it might or might not have served, and when it might have been added. I do live in a very old apartment building (over 100 years), but I’ve only lived here for a year and, because it’s in a bad neighborhood, some of the ornamental features in the buildings here have been neglected for some time. It feels like metal and is approximately 7 inches across. Everything has been painted over a number of times (landlord special, lol), so I assume it was not originally white.
Thank you for your help!!

I took my Singer 66 outside of its treadle for transportation purposes. When I laid down the machine on its side, I noticed these little things inside the empty space of the neck. I'm not super concerned about what these are. Im just curious because I've had this sewing machine since May 2022 and these bean things have most likely been there since before purchasing the machine. Thanks in advance for any answers!

Found at a thrift store. Small gold eagle wings and tail, quite detailed. The underside has a notch where this would fit onto something, but I have no idea what it is.

Spring is about 1-inch tall with 0.5-inch base diameter, tapering as it rises. Found it in my garage. The spring and magnet are only held together via magnetism (no glue or solder or anything like that). In my garage I have woodworking tools, automotive tools, some power tools, a 1976 Land Rover, 2017 Toyota Tacoma, 2003 Suzuki SV1000S motorcycle, and a closet with my HVAC system and water heater. My kitchen opens up into my garage, so I guess it could be from something found in a kitchen.
