Need help... am I getting my identity stolen??

I made my first purchase last night, and I woke up this morning to the seller requesting my SSN/EIN. They say they need it to issue the package with DHL. I know some specific kinds of shipments (particularly from Asia to NA, which is what this is) require an SSN or EIN of the recipient, but to the best of my knowledge, I don't see why this would.

So is this normal?

Should I give the info?

If not, do I need to give them some other info?

And if this is just someone trying to take my identity, is there any feasible way to get a refund?

Just some additional context that might be relevant--this seller doesn't have any reviews, which was initially concerning to me, but their listing were all put up recently, so I figured that made sense, and the listing I bought was verified, so I figured it would be fine?

Why are we so concerned with the purported experience of time passage??

I've been reading a bit about time, and I'm kinda confused about why so much attention is given to the people's seeming experience of time passage. Scrolling Philpapers and Google Scholar, it seems like a pretty big portion of material on the topic is dedicated to asking how much weight we should give these reports, whether certain theories can give a convincing account of these experiences, etc., which seems silly to me, because if robust passage is the case, it shouldn't be especially surprising that our experiences reflect that, and if it's not, it also shouldn't be surprising that our experiences suggest passage, since it's a practical for us to make sense of the information we're given--or at least that's how it seems to me... Also, I'm not sure why our experiences would even be sensitive to the difference between temporal passage and a lack thereof? So why do we focus so much on our experience of passage, especially when questions about conformity to empirical evidence/physical theories, how theories stack up to one another on theoretical virtues, etc. seem a lot more immediately relevant (and more interesting imo)??

Sorry if this is a silly question, I'm just an undergrad student trying to learn </3

How do I get my filet crochet boxes to look right??

So I'm a total beginner, and my first two trial projects both have the same problem of the empty and occupied cells being difficult to differentiate visually. The problem seems to be that the double stitches that form the edges of cells have these little gaps at the top (2nd picture), and I honestly have no idea how to fix it. Am I just doing the stitch wrong 😭😭

(Idk if this matters, but I'm using size 7 or 8, not sure as I lost the packaging lol)
