Strange smells coming from teenage cousins room, what could he possibly be doing?

to quickly explain my situation, my mom decided to take in one of our cousins, so now he lives with us now.

recently there's been strange smells coming from his room. One day the smell that came from his room smelled like piss and it irritated my nose like paint. I described it as paint but my brother said it was a strong piss smell. It would go away after a couple of days but it would also reach my room which was right across. Another day it smelled less like piss but it was a strong irritating smell. like i was inhaling some chemical. Another day it would smell like something sweet like candy or strawberries. We went into his room just to figure out what it is, but when hes gone the smells disappears or atleast has a weak moldy like smell. we looked around for anything suspicious but could not figure it out.

Ive talked to friends and some gave some very scary answers of drugs like meth, which i dont believe to be the case.

hes 16 and I wanna ask teenagers in this sub what this kid is doing. some kind of drugs? inhalants? I cant figure it out

What kind of damage is this S24

Bought refurbished phone in “good” condition. I turned off my phone and the top of the screen caught my attention. I thought it was some oil or some residue so I tried to wipe it but it doesn’t go away. What kind of damage is this?Or was the screen replaced or is this normal even

blue is neutral and we have no ground. house is old and there is NO ground anywhere...

some back ground. the lighting in our house has always been strange. since i was as kid one switch would cause others not to work and things like that scattered around the house. didnt think much of it until i decided to replace outlets and wanted to try and fix the switches recently. turns out 15+ years ago my sisters boyfriend did some dry wall and took it upon himself to do the electrical work(he is not an electrician).

I want both lights to turn on and off via 2 switches like a 3 way switch set up. for some reason there is a closet that gets no power needs to get power somehow. so I need to get constant power to the single pole light switch.

Im thinking on using smart switches to get both lights to turn on, with one of them somehow communicating with the first one (I think thats how smart switches work),

my question is obviously "will this work" and im a little confused on what to do with the 2 load wires at the switch at the left, i assume i need to connect it to the smart switch, but im not sure, and the load at the bottom box (i will close up ) if it should just be wire nutted away

i started learning about all this the last 2 days so sorry this seems foolish. If there is a way to make this work with the wire shown that would be nice. I thought of wiring 2 12/2 romex between the 2 lights, but then i need constant power for the closet room
