The firſt beſt Throw upon the Dice is eſteemed Aces, as it ſtops the Six-Point in the outer Table, and ſecures the Cinque in your own, whereby your Adverſary’s two Men upon your Ace-Point cannot get out with either Quatre, Cinque, or Six.

2021, Fred Weir, Christian Science Monitorhttps://www.csmonitor.com/The-Culture/Movies/2021/0715/Russians-say-Marvel-s-Black-Widow-is-klyukva.-That-s-not-flattering Russian moviegoers have a special term for films whose storyline or atmosphere just does not ring true. It’s klyukva, or “cranberry.” Reviews of “Black Widow” bristle with that term.

And it too closely parallels transphobic attacks that charge: Once a man, always a man; once a woman, always a woman.

Every one of those dogmen has been either cajoled, bribed, or commanded by his own particular Circe to take the dear household pet out for an airing.
