I (25m) married my high school teacher (45f). Ama!

No I was not groomed. I thought she was hot but we had no contact after high school until we connected on Facebook when I was 22. We had a few dates and really liked each other. Now we are married and happy. Ama!

In 2019 I stood up to crime boss Mike Miske in Pearlridge Mall in Aiea, HI in front of multiple witnesses and security cameras. The security guard came and asked me if I wanted to make a police report but I declined. His goonies were sent for me seemingly overnight but I got away. AMA

Because I didn't know who Miske was, until I recognized him getting indicted on the news a year later, I put together a YouTube video about it to protect my family. Hurriedly and reactively put together out of a sense of pressure, with minimal actual footage of strangers acting suspiciously, the video and my attempt to share the story only garnered dismissal and ridicule. I gave up on my life and my YouTube channel until The Batman (2022) trailer came out. It was so theatric, so impactful that I thought if I could make videos like that, people would have understood and believed me. The movie itself also seemed to make a few hidden references to the incident, my life leading up to it, and some of the people involved. It inspired to keep improving my editing skills, rebrand, and continue my channel. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post a link here but for those of you who want to check it out it's on my profile.

Composing music for a Sketchy Theatre

I'm a full-time musician/writer. I wear many hats, because I'm in the process of trying to create my own production company that does film, theatre, and live-music work. (I know that's a lot to handle and trust me, I've had weeks long debates with myself wondering if I'm just wasting my time trying to stretch my self too thin. But ultimately, I've come to the decision, I love working in mediums of writing and performance in all its iterations. I guess the closest "term of work" I've come to is Producer. Though, as a working class citizen, I view the exuberance of "Hollywood" and "Broadway" as more of a gatekeeping instance, than a goal to aspire to). I know creative work might not always look like it, but being an artist takes a ton of work. There's a lot of practice, learning, and sometimes really tough feedback to deal with. It's true, I pick things up really fast, but that doesn't mean it's easy. It's more about the mental focus and pressure to get things perfect.

Recently I've had the option to compose the OST (Original Soundtrack) for a theatre company that puts on full-length plays. But the attitude I've seen toward the work I do is that of ,"Oh that must be so easy for someone QUOTE UNQUOTE, 'as talented as they are'." So the projects almost always end up being quick back-and-forth's (as in less than a days notice) about what track they like and what they don't like. And that reeaaaallllyyy irks me. I've put countless hours toward being proficient enough in my selected mediums that I can just join a project and provide value instantly, rather than drag the project behind. But the complete disregard of how hard it actually is has driven me up the wall.

Now the same company has offered me another project to do. (Not enough money by the way, but I love this sh*t {Music}, sooo...) I declined the offer on the grounds that, "I would be to busy". Which is true, because I'll be directing a movie in Dec-Jan. (Like I said, Many hats). However, they've passive-aggressively indicated that "I might not get the call" due to their being other talent they had in mind for my role as composer.

Feel free to ask me anything, though selfishly I'd like to ask y'all, should I even continue working with this company? [ I ask because the theatre scene in my town isn't to well developed. The options are them or the Community College. Please note, I'm already trying to create my own, though progress is slow.] Any answers/questions/comments are welcome.

Best regards,

Me.

I have lived most of my life in Syria and have current unbiased knowledge about the current situation over there that is being incorrectly reported AMA

As the title suggests I know manny things that are currently being lied about or not represented correctly if you don’t know already the war over there has recently been reignited and the second largest city of Aleppo has fallen into terrorist control there’s a lot of misinformation regarding the nature of these terrorist groups although most mainstream media have stopped using the term “freedom fighters” (pentagon/cia/mossad funded terrorists that are funded by the billions of dollars to over throw the government and rape and kill any civilians they come across as if that is somehow you help a country not to mention the oil stealing) they are still incorrectly representing those groups as “rebels” or something of that extent which is far from the truth I even have current knowledge from friends and family in these currently occupied areas nothing is off limits ask me anything (TLDR:I have current unbiased information regarding syrias past and current new situation that is being incorrectly represented by most media)

I have been struggling with atypical pneumonia for almost a month, AMA!

I was finally diagnosed this week with why I have been coughing like crazy and sometimes feeling cold or confused for several weeks. My symptoms disappeared for two days, then came back even stronger than before. I am currently coughing my lungs out, dealing with the constant metalic taste in my mouth from the antibiotics, and making my neighbours very happy with all the noise.

No, I am not asking for medical advice, but you can ask me anything you want!

I make a living as a nude male model for artists AMA

I’m a 27-year-old male living in Australia, and I work as a professional nude model. I’ve posed for university art classes, life drawing groups, private events such as hen’s parties.

It’s a job that involves standing naked in front of strangers for hours while they sketch, paint, or laugh (depending on the setting). It’s not as weird as people think, but it definitely has its moments.

I’ve been doing this for a while and have plenty of stories about the awkward, funny, and downright unexpected things that happen in this line of work. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to make a living this way, how I got started, or what goes through your head when you’re standing there with no clothes on, ask me anything.
