The main thing I'm not sure about is the gaps on top and the globs and strings on the top and sides. I think the gaps on the bottom might be needing to level the bed and extruders better, and maybe I need to try a raft for the warping?

I'm using a flashforge creator pro with a glass print bed and layerneer bed weld, happy to fill in any other details too. I'm new to 3d printing so I'm not really sure what all the necessary details might be needed to figure out the problem

I have very little experience (6 prints so far on an ender 3).

When is the last time you've leveled your bed?

I had a similar tubing issue (no idea what the term is) where there would just be random tubes off the objects body.

I manually leveled and printed again and the print came out fine.

Good luck

Edit: also check your temperatures, it looked like the filament is not melting properly (could still be a leveled bed thing or an extruder hight thing)
