If you’re thinking lf Darth Maul, that was his face because he was a Zabrak and they sport facial tattoos. Facial tattoos aren’t a necessary feature of the Sith.

Or when you need really impressive numbers for weight: oak leaves.
Maple leaves in Canada. Ha ha just kidding because they use metric like the rest of the civilised world.

Makes so much more sense that it was originally in metric but looks weird translated to imperial.

The wikipedia article cites several attributions over the years, including Richelieu who seems to be the earliest.

Give me the man and I will give you the case against him is a saying that was popularized in the Soviet Union and in Poland in the period of the People’s Republic of Poland, attributed to the Stalinist jurist Andrey Vyshinsky, or the Soviet secret police chief Lavrentiy Beria. It refers to the miscarriage of justice in the form of the abuse of power by the jurists, who could find any defendant guilty of “something”, if they so desired.
- Comment on Meta progression in roguelites was fun for a while, but it's starting to feel unrewarding 1 month ago:
Great post.
In addition to your points I would add a frustration of mine is having to fight the same bosses over and over again. Take Hades 2 as an example: you can choose one of two paths at the start of a run but will always have to fight the same boss fights. That sort of repetition in a roguelike is expected, I guess, but I just stopped playing the game because I didn’t want to fight Scylla and Charybdis for the 1000th time just to get to the next boss for the 1000th time.
I suppose Dead Cells spoiled me a bit here: you had route choices and could skip boss fights if they weren’t necessary for you current goals.

Ok, so kläderna is clothes. Interesting. Wonder how much that has to do with clad in English:
transitive verb
- To sheathe or cover (a metal) with a metal.
- To cover with a protective or insulating layer of other material.
- To clothe.
(I looked but didn’t actually find a link between the two)
