Lost Things

[Rodafina]

There’s a story I love called The Lost Thing – there is a land in it where all lost things can go and have a place. It’s a story in this book:

Anyway, if it doesn’t already exist, I thought this thread could be a place for lost things – things that you want to share, but you just don’t know where. Maybe it doesn’t deserve its own thread entirely. Maybe it doesn’t quite fit into the weird or random thread, or maybe it just can’t find a home. Well here’s a home for lost things.

I don’t know what this is, but I love it. It is in an old paper factory.

I have that book. Rule of Summer, the Singing Bones, and Tales from the Inner City are phenomenal. I have all three on my bookshelf at home (at work, currently for context).

Hey look, a perfect example of neurodivergent overshare for fear of being misunderstood, in layman's terms overexplaining.

It looks like if you flip the switch Frankenstein's monster will come alive.

Devices with that sort of look will always make me think of this:

If anyone here actually knows what that is, I'll be surprised.

It looks like a very specific glock, made to tell important dates, in a fantasy world

I started writing a book. Its the diary of a horse who cant die but can manipulate peoples mind for short times. This is also how he writes down his story.
Its set in a medieval fantasy world.

Sometimes i come up with concepts that are so wierd, i start to wonder about my brain

The gauges goes up to 150 ampere and 4 megawatts, I think it's a time machine.

I think it was built in Germany so it's a more efficient and accurate time machine, it needs only 4 megawatts and no DeLorean.

Something from Ancient Aliens?

The one Misery posted looks like the entrance and exit to a Disney ride.
Or an efficient Soylent Green machine?
People go in, but they don't come out the same?

Actually, I would say it is a subway station.

If it was built in victorian times it might have something to do with ghosts or spirits. Or something Tesla built.

I used to go as a child to this kids environment /garden club thing and every year we would do a sleep over at this garden space in tents. It was always very fun.
The only toilet there looked similar to this but cleaner.

3.5 inch megalodon tooth. I swear you can feel the sheer power of the mighty shark when you hold this thing and imagine the prehistoric beast swimming around the ocean.

Over 10 years ago I bought a rather large quantity of am27c512 series EEPROM ICs. I had big plans for these but despite putting them somewhere safe I haven't found them, even after moving house 3 times!

If anyone sees them, could they let me know?

Here’s a few of them. Lost things get found here.
