I appreciate any and all tips from experienced nurses.
I binge-watched "Saturday Morning All-Star Hits" this weekend, and wanted to recommend it to everyone.
It's a loving parody of cartoons and TV from the late 1980s and early 1990s, but over the course of 8 episodes it draws you into this made-up TV world and tells a few different stories. It's a serial, with each episode slowly evolving Kyle's characters and the cartoons themselves.
By the end, the experience is kind of like the "The Kroll Show" where the self-referential in-jokes build up and really get you laughing. It's a weird/special/different experience, and I really enjoyed it.
If you grew up watching cartoons during this era, you have to watch it.
Happy Saturday! We're here with our first weekly content installation - essay topic review.
You're still welcome, of course, to write your own posts asking for topic review. But this is a handy centralized zone for soliciting feedback.
Top comment requirements
If you're asking for your essay topic to be reviewed, your comments need to include the following information:
- The essay in question (common app, UC app, some random supplemental)
- The prompt you are considering addressing.
- Detailed information about your topic!
Example of a great top comment:
>Hi everyone! I'm trying to get feedback on my topic for the UC PIQ prompt #3. Here's the prompt: What would you say is your greatest talent or skill? How have you developed and demonstrated that talent over time?
>
>I'm planning to write about how my greatest skill is drawing. I've been drawing since I was 4, and last year I entered and took second place in a state competition. I would write about how drawing lets me unwind after school and how I learn more effectively by making super detailed illustrated notes. Thanks in advance! :)
Constructive Feedback Guidelines
Y'all, if you don't have something CONSTRUCTIVE to say, don't say it. That doesn't mean you can't be critical - you just have to use language that supports the writer rather than discourages them.
If you're having a hard time being constructive, use a "compliment sandwich" - first say something you like, then give your criticism, then say another thing you like.
Example of good compliment sandwich (compliments in italics, constructive criticism in bold):
>Hey! First of all, it sounds like you have a deep relationship with drawing. I wish I'd been doing anything since I was 4!
>
>I do think that this focusing on how art helps you unwind from academics is probably a really common theme. I wonder if you could try to draw out some of the more unique and creative ways that drawing helps you learn? Or connect to others?
>
>But I definitely think this topic makes sense given how much time you've spent drawing. It sounds like a major skill. Good luck writing this!

Welcome to 2022, everyone! Meticulous Talks hasn't had a stream since our Fond Memories Set Review, and we did decide to take something of an extended break to recover from that. But now we're back, and ready to get back into things.
Last week, there was the first true Adventure tournament, held online over the weekend of the Vanhoover Pony Expo. I was there, and got to see some mighty fine decks up close and personal. This was the first tournament conducted under the newly-revised banlist adjustments last year, so it offers a great look at what the exciting new Adventure format is going to become. As is customary, we'll be taking a stream to go over the results and try to figure out what they mean.
Per usual, the stream will be starting at 9:30 AM Pacific time (12:30 PM Eastern) at https://www.twitch.tv/meticuloustalks. We hope to see you there.
I'm a big fan of Niccolo, each week here covers a variety of subjects, always interesting and usually unique. This weekVaccine Passport as de facto Social Credit System, Italy's Failed Democracy, Zemmour the "Bad Jew", Attack on Online Anonymity, Democratization of Electronic Music

Hello everyone,
It's saturday and that means another coaching and replay review stream today. Everyone i's eligible to participate, all you have to do is send me the replay id and I'll go through them one by one today. Last week we had lots of fun, hopefully today even more people join us.
You can watch the stream at: https://www.twitch.tv/castironfox
You can also join the discord server to stay tuned for more streams, hero guides, discussions and whatnot: https://discord.gg/9w8b39y6qA
Hope to see you stop by :)
Edit: Thanks everyone who joined in. The stream was really fun and a big shout-out to everyone who told me to drink water because I was slowly dehydrating myself by constantly talking during the stream.
Let's try it! Every Saturday, those of us who have each other's books, swap reviews!
Highlighted Quotes:
[Pengu] "Ever since I turned pro I never looked at it if I don't have to. I think it's a thing where goalies get screwed up on it. Some goalies look at it and say I'll get three goals in 7 shots and they're screwed the rest of the game. Whatever the shot total is at the end of the game, It doesn't matter if I look at it or not, I can't change it, so I don't look at it" -Allen
[Pengu] "I literally just found out two minutes ago.... I don't have much to say on it. I don't know the whole situation at all. I don't have any details on it. I've known [Mellanby], he coached me in St. Louis... He's great to me and he's obviously going to have a future somewhere, I'm sure in the management role here soon but we will definitely miss him" -Allen
