One could at least argue that the Iraq invasion was within what was generally understood to be the role of the president at the time, specifically leading the military as its commander in chief. No one expected throwing a coup to be within the normal role of the president, but apparently that's also covered according to this decision.

Student debt relief without a reduction in prices is just funneling money to colleges with extra steps. It is an important step, Biden should be doing it, but it needs to be accompanied by serious consumer protections and price controls applied to colleges.

I think the term you might identify with more is "gender nonconforming" meaning you enjoy things that are not traditionally associated with your gender, but you're happy with your gender and body the way they are. If you felt dysphoric/uncomfortable with your body that would be more trans. Hope that helps, whatever you choose to label it doesn't matter too much just be what makes you most comfortable!

The Russian SVR hacked both the DNC and RNC. Russia chose to release only the DNC files, to damage Hillary and support Trump. This is established fact per detailed indictments based on a mountain of technical evidence.

So just because what they released was authentic documents does NOT mean they're some sort of impartial source as they claim here. Julian Assange is and was a Russian asset, he contributed greatly to the damage of American democracy brought on by Trump, and I hope he rots in prison right next to Trump himself and every other traitor and foreign intelligence asset who supports him.

Ukraine has won simply by continuing to exist over 2 years after Putin's 3 day invasion started. Your pathetic attempts to influence Internet audiences in favor of Russia won't help either, miserable troll. Bigoted, oppressive, evil societies like Russia will never win.

The only people this should ever be used on is the assholes who came up with it. Black Mirror wasn't meant to be a playbook people!

Really? I've never heard it used that way, not even by old people. Maybe it evolved out of that usage a long time ago

In America we say "it is what it is" or "good enough for government work" to communicate a similar vibe. Sounds sophisticated when you say it in Japanese tho

Damaging an aircraft is a serious felony, and you don't own the airspace above your house so you legally can't interfere with them. You think the people at Amazon haven't thought about this? That thing will be covered in cameras and microphones, you won't be able to touch it without being charged.
