English Synonyms and Antonyms
usual
Usual (Latin usus, use, habit, wont) signifies such as regularly or often recurs in the ordinary course of events, or is habitually repeated in the life of the same person. Ordinary (Latin ordo, order) signifies according to an established order, hence of everyday occurrence. In strictness, common and general apply to the greater number of individuals in a class; but both words are in good use as applying to the greater number of instances in a series, so that it is possible to speak of one person's common practise or general custom, tho ordinary or usual would in such case be preferable. Compare GENERAL; NORMAL.

Unlike many of President Trump's supporters, Black voters do not usually vote against their own economic interest, but in a climate where the professional peddlers of disinformation continue to successfully target Black voters, Democrats will need to drastically step up their engagement efforts far beyond their usual one-dimensional playbook. The Biden Administration appears to have a clear understanding of the challenge at hand with Black voters, given the timing of his full and unconditional pardon of all prior federal offenses for simple possession of marijuana — a move that will greatly benefit the Black and brown communities that have been disproportionately arrested for marijuana possession.
So this is not the usual nominee, therefore, I cannot support the nominee.
This is definitely a next-level action. The urgency of climate change warrants such an attempt to disrupt business as usual... to make it impossible for people with decision-making power to go about their daily lives as if we are not in the climate emergency.
Henry James, "The Ambassadors", Book Fourth, Chapter 2:
Thanks to his constant habit of shaking the bottle in which life handed him the wine of experience, he presently found the taste of the lees rising as usual into his draught.
