I'm a year from finishing my Master's in English. I currently have three goals in life: a job with a salary, a god, and a PhD. I'm strongly leaning towards a PhD in Popular Culture, partially because I didn't even know that was a thing. But it sounds epic. It will probably require me to move halfway across the country, and I can't decide how I ( Read more... )

So my Gmail and Facebook accounts have been hacked. I'm attempting to reset everything and reclaim them, but I don't know how long that will take. I'm very frustrated.
