    a. Announce there will no longer be loose due dates.
        i. Use ideas from original pitches, advertise them to writers outside.
        ii. Starting to post on Friday
              a. With the increase of Third Eye writers and ideas, we'll expand to MWF.
3. With three more staffers at BreakThru
    a. Organize a new editorial system:
