what is it? is it fifty-year old cosmetics? is it the ancient furniture? is it inherent to icons of the virgin mary?

at what point will it happen to me?

it's the detritus flaking off their calloused souls

Moth balls, though I don't know how common that is anymore.

Temperature: old folk get cold and don't open the windows.
Food: boiled salted stuff.
Furniture: they decorated during a period of 50s / 60s synthetics, and see no point to change it up.
