It's classical language. "狂へ" ("狂ふ" in perfective form(已然形, some say it's imperative form, but the same pronunciation)) + "る" (the auxiliary verb "り", which means present perfect, a state which is still ongoing , in attributive form) An Arab who has been insane.

I think there must be a sizeable portion of Polish weebs. When I took a class for Japanese in Germany there was a Polish girl there as well. Actual Polish, not Polish growing up in Germany.
I'd definitely try to milk Japanese for money unless you got more promising skills. Might be that you might need to pass N2 at least though.
Dummbells are not very good for working out at home. They are at best for supplementary exercise. Your best bet is to join a gym or have the space to get a barbell rack. But really you should just join a gym with a decent equipment. I think in Japan there are not that many unfortunately.
Most likely still no. I see less and less use for it especially these days. The basic idea of memorizing kanji by using mnemonics is solid but everything else about it is very debatable. Even more so the common practice to grind it out up front with no actual knowledge of the language.
I think it makes much more sense to get familiar with Kanji you read a lot anyways first and learn more as time progresses. Realistically speaking you'll never be truly done with Kanji either way. This idea of grinding out Kanji stems from some notion of Western literacy imo. And being able to recognize Kanji already helps very little with actually reading stuff.
Really the only argument for is, is that it probably makes you better at differentiating Kanji that look visually similar and that is all.
There are a lot of japanese bookstores where I live, so I have no shortage of material. The thing is is that the hifi gear I have and are trying to purchase have service manuals in Japanese only. 100% sure they are just rebranded and updated but I can't find the american/euro export ones.

Actually there's one thing where someone could consider RTK: If they want to handwrite in Japanese a lot. I think in this case it can help a ton to follow the system closely. But to me that's a party trick at best and absolutely useless if you don't speak Japanese fluently already and want to handwrite a lot.
And even in this case you can probably get away with much less than 2200 Kanji or what have you. At some point it's more about showing off than anything else.
Most glaring mistake I can see is you should use 下さる instead of 差し上げる.

What's the difference between たぶん and もしかすると? Do they both mean "maybe"?

Has anyone tried self harm as a way to help with learning? I'm considering doing listening practice and burning myself with a lighter for every word I don't understand. Just punching myself in the head isn't working.

Yes, very effective. Let is escalate. The more your brain fears the punishment the better it will work.
Well, けど has a few meanings but here, what I think the speaker is telling the little kid is something like: "Be a good boy althought we go to your uncle's house" (literally).
Giving the idea that the uncle is very familiar to the family BUT that doesn't mean you can be as if you were in your house (doing noise or doing whatever the fuck you want). So, please, behave yourself.
Literally the sentence will be: "Due It's already dark, be careful". Giving the reason, "because of this, do this"
Sorry for the possible mistakes, my written english sucks a little.
