    I feel very uncomfortable

    sorry, making you feell uncomfortable was not my intention.

    I guess I could try and send them the pics and ask them about this “suspicious object”.

    i guess thats the correct way. just imagine there would actually be illegal chemicals in it and your fingerprints are on it now :o) not mentioning it to them could even create a problem then.

    on the pictures it looks rather blueish to me not greenish and the other guy mentioning meth reminded me of the blue color somewhere in breaking bad, so the idea that the pipe had been used for processing drugs got stuck in my mind 🤷 but my knowledge in this topic is rather limited to half forgotten school knowledge, common sense and movie bullshit…

    guess its nothing, but telling police about it is the right thing anyway. maybe donate them a donut or pizza if its nothing 😉

    How would you know that green is arsenic and not copper?

    he already suggested to NOT lick it, guess arsenic would cause death upon licking, so he already mentioned how to “know” that but suggested to better stay alive instead 😉

    @ @WaterWaiver@aussie.zone : it would be interesting to know if the hole is connected right through to the barb or not, suggesting that the powdery chemicals would have to do sth with the barb, or not. then maybe suggesting some chemical processing.

    guessing chemicals by picture and observations is error prone and can be dangerous. if you want to know, send it to a lab. maybe hint it to police mentioning them the meth processing guessed earlier by @Machinist@lemmy.world maybe they’ll analyse it and tell you later what it was.
