Literary is back with new questions. Mainly idioms which are not included in dictionaries.
"that said"
That said, however, he didn't waste his time...
in spite of this?
this one should be easy, but dictionaries ignore it
Yes. It's similar to "all other things being equal" or "whether that was true or not" -- all of these phrases usually follow a statement or action that does not affect what comes after. Is that more confusing than helpful? It's early here for me...
