Image on left is from 4 days ago, but the pimple was slowly forming over around 2 weeks.
The goop was sticky, not oily. Earphones are Panasonic RP-TCM130.
I was not able to find an explanation.
Something to increase cable lifespan, lubrication, rubber disintegrating, sweat and earwax that somehow got into the cable, dielectric grease, SCP-1407, no clear answer.
At first I thought the wires just somehow twisted. Nope.
High resistance in a wire inside the sheath would generate more heat at that point, causing the plastic sheath to melt/bubble. So if the wire inside the sheath got damaged, pinched or some of the strands of wire were broken.
If you put the yolk into a cup of soil, you should have baby headphones within 2-3 weeks.
Makes me think of that shitty grippy rubber material on cheap mice that becomes gooey with time. I would treat those as euclid until further testing
Euclid??? The greek mathematician?
Euclid-class SCPs are anomalies that require more resources to contain completely or where containment isn’t always reliable. Usually this is because the SCP is insufficiently understood or inherently unpredictable. Euclid is the Object Class with the greatest scope, and it’s usually a safe bet that an SCP will be this class if it doesn’t easily fall into any of the other standard Object Classes.
…what is an SCP?
Secure Contain Protect
SCP is a collaborative wiki fiction edited and written by lots of people for years now. It started as kind of a novelty, a fake wiki of heavily redacted files relating to an organization’s attempts to contain cryptids and various weird things. Its evolved over time and has numerous narrative arcs etc now.
Is…is this what you guys were doing during covid quarantine? I just…played animal crossing.

Here I was thinking it stood for Sexy Cute Pizza.
Oh man… someones in for a fun night.
I am so intruiged by the fact that the mass of good accumulated at the one spot. The mystery of what pressures were at play for it to flow to that one spot.
Some sort of chemical reaction. My best guess would be a drop of CA glue that degraded the material over time.
