Outlook mail not receiving

So, I wanted to provide this bit of information regarding engagement especially because Holley has been posting a lot of polls and question boxes in her stories lately.
Engagement = money. Brands don’t look at likes and followers anymore as it’s not a good metric for a return on investment (ROI). Brand look for engagement with followers as followers (or non followers) that engage with content are more likely to follow through with purchasing something that the influencer has shown.
Holley keeps asking for all these recommendations because it boosts her engagement - she doesn’t actually care or need the recommendations. In addition, she never shows ANY of the answers she receives in her question boxes.
Also, keep in mind that engagement is engagement. If you’re responding to her stories with snarky messages or making comments on her posts, you’re still boosting her numbers.

I bought a Vanmoof S3 on eBay marketplace few months back when I was staying in Munich and I am trying to sell it now as moved somewhere else and I am not using it much. I am talking a potential buyer and he pointed out that there is no Frame Number on the invoice. Could someone please let me know if the Vanmoof invoice has the Frame number printed on it? I just now checked the invoice I received from the seller who sold me the eBike and there is no frame number on it. I am a bit worried. I am a foreign student living in Germany and it is a huge expense in case I couldn't resell it.
Thanks in advance!

Hi I’m about to respond to my roommate’s text message. I was wondering how to reply without sounding rude?
I sent a txt message yesterday saying “Hey, your cat almost got stuck in my room recently. Luckily I came back from grabbing my mail before heading to work or she’d have been trapped in there all day. You should probably get that pet gate for the hallway as the landlord explained before so she doesn't end up in that pickle again. I feel concern for your cat’s safety and uncomfortable of her coming into my room.”
My roommate replied “This is obviously an issue to you, be more careful with your door next time. I do what I can and carry out all that I have agreed to do. If you want a gate, that’s your prerogative and not my responsibility.”
My next txt below is a rough draft. I just want others opinion on how to sound respectful.
“ It would actually be an issue to all of us(cat, you, and me) if your cat gets stuck in there all day. It’s considered animal neglecting. Refer to your ESA form, and under “2. General Rules for Support and Emotional Support Animals: under C”. it is not my responsibility to get the gate into the hallway since 100% responsibility of that esa animal is the owner who signs the document. If I wanna have my bedroom door open, i can; I sign the lease, not the esa form.”
The esa form says “Tenant will ensure that the animal does not at any time disturb other residents of the Apartment Community, “

It's been a while since I've received an order from my inventory. I received an invoice yesterday for a CD of mine. I promptly packaged the CD and mailed it off, not realizing it was just an invoice and not the payment.
I realize it's my fault for assuming the invoice was the payment. I guess this means that I'm screwed if this person ends up not paying. I did send a polite message thanking him for his order without revealing that the disc was on its way.
Is there anything else I can do? It was only a $27 sale, so not worth paying the USPS $17+ fee of canceling a delivery.

So many posts lately from new Etsy sellers who post about buyers wanting refunds or the sellers first instinct is to refund because the item has not arrived yet.
DO NOT REFUND.
​
All that will end up happening is you will refund and then the customer will get the item and you're out the money and package.
The only reasonable way to handle this (other than writing on your shop no refunds) is to tell the buyer that have to send the the package back UNOPENED and when you receive it, you will refund them.

My parents are refusing to let me go outside and I feel like I'll go insane. My parents will only allow me to go to school but after school I need to be home immediately or they will punish me longer. Even if they are going outside I am not allowed to join or even ask. I already Lau in my bed all day and only go outside with friends once or twice a week because I oftentimes don't have the motivation to go outside and make myself look presentable but I am still happy when people ask me to hang out. I have one friend who lives pretty far away and doesn't go to the same school who I only see once a week, the longest we've gone without seeing each other is 1 month and it made my mental health worse because he is my strongest support and I am very attached to him. We were supposed to meet next Saturday like we usually do but now I have to tell him I can't come. They also told me I will not be able to go to my bestfriend to comfort while she is mourning her father, she has the same problems I do (sh and scuicide) I am worried that she'll do something to herself and that I won't be there to comfort her. I am scared that I'll get used to doing nothing on the weekend like how I do nothing exept school on the weekdays and that I won't be able to get out from it again. This isn't the first time my parents do something like this, they have also been emotionally abusive in the past, especially my mom, my dad only screams at me sometimes hits me, but my mother comments on everything I do, she guilt tripping me, gaslights me and a lot of other things. My mom once made me feel guilty that the letter I wrote her when I attempted to end it wasn't emotional enough and to next time talk about her more instead of other people. I won't have anyone I can vent to about my class or problems and urges. I am at my lowest point and already planning again, knowing I will spend my last day without being able to hug and say goodbye to the people I love makes my heart hurt but I can't help it and need to live with it just a little longer. This time my parents will not be receiving a letter but I will somehow try to give one to each of the people I love. I am so sorry I am leaving my bestfriend while you are going through this and I am so sorry for not being able to support my closest friend and leaving him. I just hope that they know that love them. I wish I could say something about my niece but she is too young to understand, I am ashamed of myself for leaving amd never being able to see my friends amd myself graduate, to never see my niece go through her first heartbreak or getting married, I will never be able to attend the school that I worked so hard for but I am so happy that I won't need to suffer anymore. I am so sorry for just dumping this here and being dramatic about little things.

TL;DR - Caught Covid in October 2022. Noticed sleep/tachycardia/anxiety symptoms 3 months in at new job/new apartment. Quit job 6 months in. Symptoms are reappearing despite zero stress environment.
Hello all, thought I'd share what's been going with me the past ~7 months or so and get some community input.
I'll preface everything saying that I definitely did not have a clean bill of health coming in. I've had long lasting nerve pain/burning feet for well over ten years, as well as a myriad laundry list of issues that come and go. I've had generalized anxiety since being a toddler.
I caught COVID late October 2022 at a family dinner. By sheer bad luck this aligned with the start of a new job and it delayed my start date by a few days. My old job, notably, was effectively zero stress. After my first day I drove back home and instantly noticed a cold, uneasy feeling that some people here have described as malaise. For the first 3 months of my job I decided to live and commute out of my parents house as it was marginally closer to work. Didn't really notice any odd symptoms that weren't prevalent before. Most notably I was sleeping (mostly) well through the night and waking up normally as I've since adolescence.
3 months into my new job I received a reprimand from my supervisor for not being as productive as I could which stressed me out. After that point I was always "thinking" and stressing about work, unable to take my mind off of it. Shortly after I moved into a new apartment. I had lived in this area near this apartment before for a few years during school and quite enjoyed it.
This is where things started going downhill rapidly. The apartment had a lot of noise as it was off a busy avenue. Noise did not bother me at all before in this area, as I routinely kept the windows open. After a week or two of living in this apartment I started waking up with an intense sense of dread and sickness in my stomach and I stopped eating breakfast before work. At work I had a terrible sense of "well-being". Everything felt very cold and "fake" and I felt uneasy. I remember walking around my neighborhood (I had lived here before) and felt derealization/depersonalization. I started sleeping less through the night, sleeping only ~5 hours and feeling unrested. I chalked this up to benadryl, an antihistamine, I had been taking 3-4 times a week for a few years now. I quit the benadryl and suspected I was having withdrawal symptoms. My preexisting burning feet problem was not helping.
Early April I started to contemplate quitting my new job. I started spending the weekends at my parents place, then my last week at my job I started commuting out of my parents place as I did before just so I could be around the comfort/familiarity of loved ones. I started waking up 4-5 times through the night every 90 minutes with my heart racing and anxiety through the roof. I took PTO two days the week before I quit, and remembering standing around in my parents house with my heart pounding through my chest, unable to calm down. Anxiety was 10/10. I contemplated suicide.
I quit my job the next Monday and finally was able to rest with a peace of mind. After a week I started to sleep through the nights again rather soundly. It should be noted I was still waking up with slight tachycardia and dread for most of this period. I started seeing a therapist and chalked this entire episode up as lifelong anxiety I've had since being a toddler. I confronted the fact that my preexisting issues even before COVID probably were connected to a constant tension from anxiety. I started doing lawn care maintenance at a property my parent's owned and Uber driving to keep myself busy and a small form of income coming in.
I gradually improved until this past week. A few days ago after having some caffeine I started to notice some brain fog/head pressure. Best way to describe it was my brain felt "scrambled." Difficult to focus on a task. The tachycardia and sense of dread/unease upon waking started to return. Even shortness of breath. I in a ZERO stress situation at my parents house and am continuing to have symptoms and am suspecting there is a deeper, underlying issues that is not resolved. Does this community have any feedback/second opinions on all this?

Background- I am a low-level contractor at work-
my manager recently asked me to create an SOP for this huge project, which is well outside my job description, but also I received no training on how to do this and I’ve basically been doing whatever I thought was best, he’s not providing guidance
I don’t even know all the ins and outs of the project or who to talk to about those - it is really something that someone who is very familiar with and knowledgeable about the guidelines for it should probably handle
I also just found out that my manager disregarded advice from legal on what we can and can’t do, and was letting previous contractors break the law with what they were doing on it
I don’t really know how to handle these strange asks-
I just want to have my job and do a good job at the company
I was thinking of bringing this up to the staffing company that hired me?
I don’t want them to peg me as a “problem” or something though … ahh

Just thought I offer some of my experiences with eating gluten free at chain restaurants.
California Pizza Kitchen (CPK) offers gluten free pizzas, and certain gluten free toppings. They started offering gluten free pizza, but they had been using the same equipment, cooking surface for it, and they received a lot of blow back. They stopped selling for a few months, and then came out with a whole process to reduce the chances of cross contamination.
Since that change I have not gotten sick eating there, and I have Celiac. The pizzas are good, and I ask to have extra cheese to make it like a standard pizza (CPK is too healthy sometimes).

I received lab results today, on a Saturday, unfortunately, so my doctors office is closed and I cannot call with questions and am a bit worried. I would greatly appreciate any insight on the below results. I am confused as to what they mean. My Pap results seem to be normal. However, HPV 16 mRNA is detected but HPV 16 RNA is not detected. I have no clue what the difference is between these two and why one is detected and the other one isn’t and what that may mean. As far as my history goes, I am 41F, and have had normal Pap smears ever since only once in my 20s when I had abnormal results that resulted in a colposcopy and a LEEP procedure. After that all was well.
Any help at all greatly appreciated!

My current dilemma is that I wish to take another ACT over the Summer but the next available and nearby testing location includes the writing section. All other options are full.
I do not really desire to take the writing prompt and I have not practiced and likely will not practice writing at all. Id rather do the writing section then not take the ACT at all.
How will it affect my score if I receive a 4 or 6? I currently have a 29 but I believe that my most recent ACT will allow me to superscore a 31 or 32. I do not care about there ELA score too much.
TLDR, should I do the writing section with no practice beforehand and how will it affect my score if I do bad?

If all other God's are not true/real, what makes a God true/real? I'm asking from a place of contemplation. May this question be received well.

All of the women in my family (and my nonbinary self) have a close relationship with the dead. We all experience things a little differently, everything from dream visits to seeing full-bodied dead people. My grandma and her sisters also have practiced tarot for their entire lives and I picked it up quite randomly three years ago before I knew about this, and my sisters now practice as well.
I’ve been doing my best to DIY my psychic development and had a feeling that I could and should use one of my decks to talk to dead people. I think it worked because the answers made sense and corresponded to local history, etc. and I received images and sensory memories in my mind the whole time, as well. There is a place where I live that I have and continue to feel very drawn to, and it’s one of the few places I’ve seen a Whole Dead Person, as opposed to how I usually perceive them, which is more like there’s a person there but wearing a sci-fi style cloaking suit (is that common?).
I feel simultaneously like I need to be near there and chatting with the dead people who hang out there, and like I am being told desperately to leave. The location has a dark past and I can feel a very bad man (who I saw) as well as just regular people asking for help in various ways. I’m nervous to read the ghosts on the property because I’ve had a lot of physical stuff go on when I’m there, so I took some herbs growing on the property to make a stick to burn elsewhere but still have a firm connection to that land. I just had a feeling it was the thing to do.
I’m honestly pretty nervous about burning it and trying to connect, even though I’ll not be near the property. I was think of even maybe doing it on church grounds or somewhere sacred?
Is this an awful idea? What should I do (beyond my normal grounding-centring-shielding and then cleanse when I’m home) to stay spiritually safe? Are tarot cards common ways to talk to the dead and how do I strengthen that ability beyond just doing it a lot?

Hi I'm op friend the same friend who was in the meeting with Angel, op post the story on his main reddit account and that's why i am aware of his post I hope that my side of the story will give you some clarifications. I will try to arrange the events to make things easier for you to understand what happened. I will call op Arun this is not his real name. Before I begin, please do not blame religion. Religion has nothing to do with the actions of his parents. I am a Muslim,Angel and her dad are Christians, and we did not abandon him. They represent themselves, not their religion. Please be open minded.
Some background:
Arun and Angel's were raised together, Even after their parents stop being friends, Arun and Angel's friendship remained the same. Me and his ex became their friends later in life.
When Arun was nine years old, his parents left the house and left him and his sister in the care of a family member. That family member assaulted Aruns sister when Arun was a sleep. When Aruns parents saw the bruises on her body, the relative accused Arun and said that he was the one who did that to her, most of them did not believed her at that time. Unfortunately, his sister suffered alot she was a infant when the assault happened and she almost died, Arun blamed himself a lot for not being there for her. Angel told me although his parents did not say they blamed him but the implication was there, his parents became cold and distances to him.
Arun will tell you that this story has nothing to do with what happened later, because his parents did not tell him bluntly that they do doubt his innocence, even when the implication was there, Arun would continue to defend and give them excuses because he himself did not want to believe that his parents hated him for something he did not do.
for years Arun tried to be recognized by his parents, he managed to repair his relationship with them a little bit in the last 1-2 years before he was disowned.
Arun's ex knew all of this,and no one could convince me that he made the same accusation by mistake. he knew what he was doing, the 3 of us saw first hand how his parents act I would not surprised if he did this to take revenge on Arun for leaving him when his dad saw them.
When he was kick out late 2018 he was anything but stable, as you all read in his story he needed to be rushed to the hospital, I wasn't there when this happened but Angel told me when her dad told him about the rape allegations he started crying and tried to hurt himself, luckily they managed to stop him until the paramedics arrived. When he was discharged from the hospital,uncle introduced him to his friend, the lawyer who took Aruns case (don't get me wrong Arun still needed to pay him)
Unfortunately, Arun's mental health continued to decline and he made devastating decisions. He kept cutting himself. He cut off his friends/family who tried to help him. He tried to leave everything and run. But the decision that completely destroyed him was dropping the family name after his parents sent a letter telling him they disavowed him and dsinheritance...etc They ordered him to drop the family name, otherwise they will file a lawsuit against him to drop it. Now let me tell you, there is no law in India that im aware of that gives the parents the right to disown their kid's that way I told Arun this, but he wasn't listening to us, he was convinced that they could do this. He told me that he would prefer to drop his name quietly rather than popularly and risk being outed more as a bisexual man. after he dropped his name he was a shadow of himself, he was in and out the hospital for 3 years, luckly he managed to pull himself together in the 4 year but he was still taking alot of medicines.
At the beginning of 2023, Arun began to see someone, we where co-workers and they met through me, they weren't official or anything, but he was a single father, in my opinion this is important information for what will come later.
Although Arun changed his phone number, his parents managed to reach him. Unfortunately, Arun did not inform us when they contacted him. I learned from reddit, when I saw his post in his main account, I tried to contact him, but he did not respond to me,fortunately he called me shortly, He was surprised that i know about this he told me he thought he was using his throwaway account. I was horrorfield when I learned that he was planning to go alone to his parents house but said that alot of people on reddit thought it was a bad idea.
Everyone was against this meeting. Us the lawyer, his psychiatrist, but he insisted on going. I know that many of you will blame us for not stopping the meeting, but you must understand that Arun was going to meet his parents, whether we went with him or not, we cannot stop him.
When we arrived at the lawyer's office, Arun was panicking. The lawyer told him, If he did not calm down he would never accepted supervising the meeting. After some medication Arun calmed down a bit, and we started the meeting.
The meeting was downright chaotic when his parents admit his sister is alive. The meeting turns into a screaming match between them. Arun's dad said that Arun should understand that it is hard for them to accept their son has been accused twice, and that they need to distance themselves from Arun in order to accept that the allegations were not true. We tried to calm Arun down and keep his parents away from him as much as possible, but his dad continued to say things that I cannot repeat here. The meeting ended with Arun collapsing on the ground. I do not know if it happened because of the medicine he took before the meeting or because he was shocked that his parents suspect that Arun had a hand in what happened to his sister.
Considering his self harm history he was hospital for a while, when he wake up he didn't remember much which wasn't uncommon for him. The person that Arun was seeing called me and told me that he tried to reach out to Arun, but he did not answer. When I told him that Arun was in the hospital, he panicked and told me that he had received harassing messages and ask me if Arun received them to me to. I know this is not in my place, and I know that I am a bad friend, but I told everything. He is father for a 3 year old he needs to know if his live is in danger. After I told him, he told me not to tell Arun about the messages he had received, and that he would continue to support Arun from afar, to give him credit he did stick with his word.
After Arun was discharged from the hospital, he finally understood the danger of his situation with his father, and he called the cops and told them the lie his parents told him, and that he felt his sister was in danger. Unfortunately, he was right. We don't know why the took her but, we do not live in America. The police will not take your child from you because you scream at them. You must be a very special person for the Indian cops to take your kid away from you. After they took his sister, Arun told the lawyer that he wanted to request a protection from his family. Some family members told him his grandma is sick but we found out it was a another lie.
After a month or so Arun lawyer received a letter from Arun sister, but due to the psychiatrist's strict instructions he didn't read to Arun, unfortunately the silence didn't last long because one of the family member got in a altercation with Arun, Arun isn't a violent person but for the first time he responds violently to anyone, it was out of character for him. We did not get a clear answer to why Arun parents contact him, but I bet all my money that this was supposed to be an honor killing. They abandoned him for five years and did not help him or ask about him, knowing that their son was suffering from mental health problems, they did not show up until after Arun showing signs of moving forward with his life, and he began to see another guy who had a child. If they wanted him to be part of his potential family, they would not lie about his sister's death, and they would not insisted that Arun meet at their home. I think that the only reason that made them agree to the lawyer meeting was to give Arun a false sense of security, and when they saw that Arun could not walk all over him like in the past they lost it on him.
It doesn't matter what their intentions anymore, they won they got what they wanted Arun took his life on the end of May.

Last year I paid my roommate. But I only filled a contact form to inform the Rundfunk Beitragsservice so I suspect they may not receive it? And the bill they sent to me is very vague, just 55.08 from 03.2023 to 05.2023 and 63.08 for “Säumniszuschlag”. Is it a fine? But no one around me was charged with this and me and my current roommates are planning to pay normally. I’m so upset by the bill now🥲 Anyone encountered this problem or know how to handle it properly? It’d be great help!

The letter indicates that an error caused and they mistakenly approved the credit and are now retracting their approval from 05/07/2022! Is that even legal? I know they can close accounts but this is different. I’m confused.
