Please help. I have this Sleep/Wake up icon appearing on my desktop and when I press "Sleep" it puts little single numbers beside most file names on Finder pages. Most of all what buttons did I inadvertently push to cause this and how do I get rid of it?
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.5

It's the floating dictation avatar brought to you by Voice Control. System Preferences > Accessibility > Voice Control panel. If Enable Voice Control is selected, click it again to disable it and kill off that Dictation annoyance on your Desktop.
You can also tell Siri to disable Voice Control and that will do rid you of the Dictation floater quicker than navigating panels in the first paragraph.
Thanks so much for the quick response and for solving my problem
What is this thing? How can I get rid of it?
