The thorax on the carpenter ant looks a little off... It looks like it has two bumps like a formica sp. but it's too small of a photo to tell. 

The "odorous ants" look pretty sus to me. That does not look like a Tapinoma worker.

 

It's 99.99% not a Tapinoma worker, looks like a malnourished Formica sp. worker haha.

Almost looks like (a really terrible picture of) an underfed meat ant (Iridomyrmex purpureus).


We should respect all forms of consciousness. The body is just a vessel, a mere hull.
