  1. A recluse does not immediately indicate being a "mess" as you put it. It has more to do with having an introverted personality than the amount of material possessions they surround themselves with. Introverts can tend to be minimalists by nature as they require less stimuli to gain fulfillment in life whether it be people or stuff.
  2. A better comparison would be: transgender is to concealed carry as dressed in drag is to open carry Blending in vs. standing out.
  3. So by the same logic, if I find the presence of said "unauthorized guests" offensive to my delicate sensibilities, they will simply be removed right? Problem solved.
  4. Saw this come up from the Wisconsin rally. Instant karma Preface from the uploader of the video. Nice to see some Trump supporters applying the NAP(even if they do have their fingers on the trigger of their spray can.)
  5. Another way I think you may be able to keep it out of schools is to specifically state in the EULA something like "For private use only, for organizational/educational use contact xxxxx for permission." As far as advertising, I think you may be able to look for youtubers to talk to. Channels of foreign exchange students or people living abroad often share experiences they have and are often asked language questions by viewers. You could decide whether you would want to sponsor them or just ask for a one time review or mention on their channel. The youtube channel ExtraCredits also focuses on learning with video games and I'm sure they might be interested as well.
  6. The first logical group to reach out to would be parents in the home school community. Another step would be to make a version of the program for IOS and Android, I have seen my youngest daughter start to grasp basic fundamentals of operation at a year old. I have seen children start reading before kindergarten as well so this may be great for early development too. Before they even set foot in the system. As far as keeping it out of the hands of schools, you could use a distribution platform like Steam which also serves as DRM(digital rights management) that could still allow you to distribute for free but at the same time maintain control over unauthorized distribution because no school is going to install a gaming platform on a school system.
  7. If you haven't hear of Milo Yiannopoulous, check him out. He has no problem speaking out against left institutions and he's faboulous! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0aVoboXBUx2-tVIWHc3W2Q
  8. I'm 33 and I feel I may have quite a few things in common with you so I'll just share my two cents. Well going down the list, first I would have ask basic situation of your Father passing. Did he have a pre-existing condition or did he die suddenly? Generally if someone is terminally ill you will start the grieving in preparation. Also, since you previously mentioned religion, which I'm guessing you shared previously. Even though you may no longer share his faith, simply knowing that he was at peace put you at ease about his passing. I have often had my own struggles with sleep, I am an introvert and I really enjoy being alone and having quiet. I have a wife and two young girls so the only time I have to myself is when everyone is sleeping. Over the period of a couple of years I kept staying up later and later until I was staying up until 3-4 AM when I had to leave for work at 7AM every day of the week and usually sleeping 14+ hours straight on the weekend to catch up which was forcing my wife to look after the kids instead of sharing the responsibility and giving her a break as well. It can be really hard to fix your sleep schedule once you let it get so bad, I would lay in bed for hours some nights unless I could physically exhaust myself exercising before going to bed. As far as being disillusioned with marriage, I'm just guessing you have been married 1-3 years given your age. I definitely had different regrets as time went on to varying degrees the first five years. Initially, I felt as if I was compelled to get married as soon as possible to alleviate the guilt I felt associated with the sins of pre-marital sex. I realize now that my wife and I didn't really know each other well enough at the time because we hadn't had nearly enough deep conversations to really know each other. Luckily we were able to still have those conversations and grow as a couple and address the grievances we each had, but it's an ongoing process that never ends. For us it is important to talk about needs and expectations, early on I felt like I was putting more into the relationship than I was getting out of it but we weren't sharing each others perspectives which made us both bitter towards each other. I'll skip the cynicism and the ADHD as I cannot relate from personal experience. As far as you considering yourself arrogant in that you cannot relate to those less intelligent. Are you speaking in general or in regards to a certain subject or topic? For example, if you have a coworker that you need to train to do a job at work it is usually worth your time to train them. Unless they are incapable of learning that job sufficiently to manage that task individually. In that case I don't think it is that abnormal to not want to associate with someone who will be a burden rather than an asset. (Ties into gene wars discussion) Again, it's pretty normal to feel trapped in marriage especially when times are tough. They don't call it the old ball and chain for nothing. Are your studies and work something that you are interested in or passionate about? Are you burned out from the lack of sleep? When you say you don't do anything while not sleeping, are you thinking or dwelling on negativity? I can assure you that that will drain more than you will realize, I did that for a while and it will really compound your stress levels.
  9. NSFW- ads with scantily clad women and photos of dead bodies. There are no extremely gory photos of the bodies if you would like to read the article on site. Just a heads up. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3490273/At-six-dead-attackers-armed-assault-rifles-grenades-launch-assault-Ivory-Coast-beach-hotel-popular-Westerners.html One thing this story reminded me of was that of my Christian upbringing in regards to the book of Revelation in the Bible. I remember Revelation was the only book that interested me as a kid because it was about the future and not stories from thousands of years ago. Anyways, I do specifically remember my Father saying there could be a time in which your faith could cost me my life. Just a chilling memory brought back to the surface from reading this.
