I am being left out of about $300k, though my dad didn't have a will, because she thinks that I'm "not close enough to the family to deserve it"
I'll be completely honest I don't think I can keep living if the courts rule in her favor. None of my siblings know that this happened yet and they have similar shares
State: New York

I swear I remember we could use Outlook instead of Gmail and I changed from gmail a year or so ago. Now it seems that they're saying we can't? I don't use OneDrive or anything else from 365, just outlook to manage cornell emails. I'm also really confused as to how I'd go about exporting just the email I've gotten since changing to outlook and putting it into gmail, since the gmail client emails seem to cut off entirely after a certain point (jan 20)
I genuinely hate that I'll have to use it again if I want to keep my .edu email, since the outlook suite gets discontinued after.
The interface is dogshit, no non-web program, and I've basically completely migrated to the windows system since starting school (yes even copilot)

I never expected to post here, but given I've been thinking about this all day I figured I might as well.
I'm graduating in a week, I haven't really thought about islam since leaving home for this semester. But it's hit me like a truck, honestly stressing me out more than some classes. I'm not sure what to do to convince them I'm a "good muslim" and not get yelled at, because there's other muslims in the dorm who could tell my mom that I'm not practicing (they've done shit like drink alcohol too) and im really scared that if my mom thinks I'm not faithful enough then I will probably be written out of our family entirely, including the will (it can be that serious). It doesn't help that I'm also on a super liberal campus and people in my dorm WILL comment on her hijab.
I don't mind my mom, she has been very nice since I've moved out for school, but she can very easily lose her temper and has had a habit of doing so in the past in public. what if she judges me like she did when I was a kid, forced to go to quran class and even sunday school for a while and if I wasn't doing good enough I would get yelled at. I'm 22 now and I want to live my own life but I know that I'm still too young, and that faking it is probably the best I can do for the near future if I ever want to come home again.
I don't even think about the religion itself most of the time, scrolling this sub is how I remembered a lot of things my mom used to say lol.
how have others dealt with it?
I originally considered getting an orange EX (2016-2018) but I found a red model with far fewer miles, but I'm worried it might look more "generic". I want it to be pretty and at least not like the white or black cars everyone has these days
also from the pics and the two times ive seen them irl, the blue ones look very deep blue which looks nice
Yes, I'm not stupid and I know that it's standard. But I'm also a zoomer who's coming at this as my first job ever, and I'm worried about potentially being drained by it.
The work itself sounds super fun, working for a small town which is undergoing a comprehensive plan review, and the staff really wants me on board with my school/experience in development work. But I'm nervous only about these hours...
My friend who works nearby (hint: DC area) says she only has to go in office 2-3 days a week, and lives an hour away. That sounds crazy to me, but it might also be liberty given to someone working for a much bigger municipality.
I'm wondering how you all feel about working such hours in person, and whether it may be draining for an introvert even if the stuff is fun
Mom says she would pay for any car I get under $25k, but said no to the Honda Fit because she thinks it'll cost a lot to repair since it's not made anymore. She says the Prius is fine, and my brother got a new model civic for around that price. But I hate how these newer models look, and honestly looking at a fit any Sudan feels gigantic in comparison. Maybe a Mini Cooper..?
I'm devastated though 😞 I rly love how the teal Fit looks and literally stop whenever I see one irl
Man I remember joining r/teenagers during COVID and spamming the Discord for homework help LMAO. Now I'm 22 and it feels like I'm at the end of the line. My friends who are 24-25 do not understand what I'm talking about here at all
I insisted that my childhood freedom would effectively end for me once I turned 20, in the sense that I was now an adult and now had to take things seriously. I am now 22 and about to graduate college into the worst world imaginable. It's hard to imagine myself in a career or job I like, let alone being an actual "adult" on my own. I will apply to jobs, get interviews, and halfway into said interviews completely blank out and wonder "why am I even doing this? the world's going to hell"
I'm directionless when everyone around me has a graduate program or some other position lined up out the gate. I frequently think that I'm too old, and that I still mentally feel like I'm 18 and that the last four years largely flew by (though a lot has changed, and arguably I'm a lot better off now other than being a lot uglier). My ex graduated in December and now works for 75 hours a week in a nice town, I wish I was productive like that! It's scary
The elephant in the room being that dating is effectively over once I leave, since I won't be anywhere walkable most likely. My college relationships were fun while they lasted, at least. Jealous of the undergrads who will still be dating while I'm done.
So I'll be scared and alone once I've left the last structured path in my life out, and now I'm free. But it feels like that old guy in Shawshank Redemption who is aimless once he's "out of prison" (my therapist still insists that some vague idea of "freedom" is a good thing, I never will understand)
