Turquoise stuff on keycaps

Got a Eweadn mechanical keyboard and I really like it. After months of use, however, this greenish teal/turquoise stuff accummulates on the keys I use the most. It also accumulates on the sides of the keys, and it doesn't clean off easily. It seems to originate between the circular cap and the rose-gold plated rims. What is?

I apologize if this isnt the correct community to post this in, i couldnt find a generic 'what is it' community.

[SOLVED] ~13mm dart with 5-pointed star base found in my shoe. Non-ferrous

Location: Sydney, Australia

Does not react to a magnet. Does not show any signs of rust. Bent slightly.

Looks almost like a mechanism from inside a click pen, but those normally don't have a stepped stabby end, nor need to be made out of metal.

SOLVED: Stud earring. Gem goes on the the star end, second retaining piece goes on the stabby end. Thankyou.

Mysterious images on Dollar General napkins

Quoted from my mother:

"A month or two ago, I purchased these napkins at Dollar General. When I opened them up to use them, I noticed that they just had weird shapes on them. Through the packaging they looked like they had flowers or something like that on them. So fast forward to a couple days ago, I bought another pack of these napkins, again from Dollar General. Just today I started to pay attention to the images on them...... what the HELL are they? Grubs? Turds??? What's your take on these weird napkins? Love you, Mom xoxo"

My wife thinks they're meant to be mitochondria and bacterium that failed or ran out of ink while printing and inevitably wound up at Dollar General.

I think they're either turds or croissants. Maybe both!
