Downtime
PhD
Well It's come to time in my career to get a PhD. This should open up a lot of opportunities in my future and help with achieving my goal. It does mean a lot of work though. Not that I've struggled with academics in the past.
I've been accepted to three schools but decided to go with Harvard. I know that Duke and Columbia both offered much better scholarship programs and it seems foolish to go to Harvard and put myself in near poverty. While there certainly is a shallow part of me that made this decision to have the most impressive name to drop in conversation I also think this is the correct choice in the long term. I say this because I know that other people are similarly shallow. While Duke or Columbia would be impressive on my resume I know that Harvard will really wow. The networking alone will open doors the other two couldn't.

Downtime
Academic slog
This Harvard PHD program is certainly much harder than any of my previous academics. Especially with all the stress of moving in. Of course I've managed to keep up with my research and my studies. I haven't been able to accel in the way I'm used to though. Maybe I'm not the smartest person in Harvard. I mean of course I'm not but it is and interesting change of pace being average for once. I don't think I've ever really been average. I've always breezed through my studies before and every since high school have rocked it in the social circles as well. I wonder if I'll be able to get my studies under tight enough wraps to join a sorority. Probably not, who's ever heard of a PhD student in sorority anyways. Although I'm sure the Greek life at Harvard is top notch. Oh how I miss have too many shots with the girls and making bad decisions.

The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).
