respawn point 

In any roleplaying video game, the point that the player last saved. In the event of a game over, the player would pick up at that point.
Remotely related to "restart point," but more often than not used by hardc0re or wannabe gamers to emphasize the immortality of game sprites.
"Sh*t man, that bullet went right through your chest!"

"No worries, I'll meet you at the respawn point. *cough, cough*"

respawn anchor

A placeable item that lets players respawn in the Nether, where setting respawn points with beds is impossible. Its crafting recipe is six crying obsidian and three glowstone. It requires a glowstone to charge for a single respawn attempt. Interestingly it can be shared with multiple players. Charging a respawn anchor in the Overworld can cause a fatal explosion] which is more powerful than creepers and can ignite nearby blocks.
For the next updates, I hope that respawn anchors can also be used in the End, or any dimensions where the concept of day and night cycle do not exist.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
