Message Mac Desktop

I have been unable to use my Message on Mac desktop for a long time. And now I have shut down and still doesn't work. It used to work when I did that. Though I don't think I should have to do that anyway. What could be going on??

Whew, they've changed pastebin & made it harder, but after pasting in, click Create new paste button, then Embed button, then copy the URL...

Workable but harder for me to work with...the Note tool on the bottom of this editor's toolbar, as shown in the image, to copy and paste the output from EtreCheck. In a Reply before you click post, look for this to add longer texts...
