I'll have to send you a recording or something some time
You realize that "sending me a recording of your violent tapping" sounds like "sending me a sex tape," right?

yes, and I'm not referring to the music. I'm referring to the volume of my tapping

I can see how that might be annoying but I think it would not be too bad. Trust me I have had shitty room mates and if that was the worst any of them ever did I would be perfectly happy with that.

Have they actually complained about it or have you just not played with them around in the first place to be nice?

Just haven't played yet. Granted if I get to constantly hear the one in the room beside me fucking, I'll probably tap extra loud to fight back.

Depending on how off-task I can be in my classes, I might just do so

even if it appears as such.
2)
Everything apart from when looking through a microscope you see a difference.
Meaning it tastes the same. It reacts the same as Earth A water.
Are you asking about suicide or about whether I would have wanted to ever have existed?
3)
The existing part seems interesting. Before you were born. Lets say as a sperm just about to make contact with the egg you watch a TV showing everything in your life in an instant. Leading to your live being more bad than good. Lets say there is a 6 point difference constantly. So lets say you are at a 10 happy, you would be at 16 point unhappy. Would you not make contact with the egg?
I think inspirational quotes and mantras are about as close as most people get,
5)
No I mean like should I drink this soft drink or not? It is a philosophical question but very rarely people go deep into it and make standards. Do you agree with what I said?
I'd like gay couples to be able to have biological children. I am not sure if that would be the one I would choose if I actually were given a choice, but, sitting here thinking about it, it is one that I would like to see happen.
6)
Guess it makes sense. I wouldn't know personally given there are many options and if I pick one I can't pick another. 
I think most of the ridicule progressives get for calling out bias is contrived nonsense that doesn't apply to most, everyday progressives.
7)
How much of a percentage do you think the progressive movement is compared to the US population? 
I don't think so about your vocal positive progressive movement side. A party with no real clear identity will tend to nudge themselves more radically like the topic I brought up. I think this is a predictable scenario and I think will be mainstream progressive if it carries on in the future. I guess you don't see the bad of the progressive movement like I do.
Hasan PIker with the Copmala Harris video. Basically nothing he stated was proof. If you don't know who he is, he is associated with TYT that has a ton of subscribers.
Michael Brooks resorting to gish galloping instead of actually defend his qualms with the TPP.
Sam Seder, Kyle Kulinski and other constant suck up of AOC and the other squad members even when they have shite takes.
Basically if it wasn't clear she is talking about radical change from a comfy seat called I am not going to be challenged by a Republican in a blue district. I am now damaging chances in swing states by forcing Pelosi to do something when she has much more important problems like winning swing states. AOC could've helped centre-lefty dems win then decide to advocate for radical but instead she chooses to start with the radical change when the dems do not have a blue president or the senate. See my problem? Yet Sam Seder is defending like I am sure all the other progressives are as well. Where is this helpful criticism that would help you know win dems the presidency?

I think the most competent progressive which few dumb takes and even less just going by recent track record is David Pakman. 
Dumb takes of his:
For circumcision
Some other stuff I can't remember. 
I think progressives do tend to be highly educated, and therefore white. But I think that if more people became highly educated, more people would become progressives.
8) 
I don't think this is true. I can be highly educated in theism but still not be a progressive. Do you mean the right kind of education?
I'd choose the latter.
9)
It was Spider-Man. Could have gave more of a hint.

Lol. My freshman year, there was one girl in our dorm who had a different boyfriend every month. She fucked every night, and would lock her roommate out for 12 hour stretches.

Also, stop with these acronyms. You're making me look stuff up just to read your posts.

Okay yes go ahead and tap away on osu and don't feel bad about it but if you are doing it for that reason... believe me, as a guy that has been on both sides of that fight it is not one you are going to win unless you... recruit some help.

Doesn't change my answer. The question you're asking deals with what counts as water, which makes it a question of synthetic knowledge.

Before you were born.
In that case, you are asking whether I would choose to exist at all if I knew that existence would be unhappy. Yet, it seems to me, that I, as a collection of memories and experiences, cannot render a decision about what I would want, because I must first exist in order to do so. I would then reject the premise of your question.

No I mean like should I drink this soft drink or not?
Is the question philosophical? Sure. I suppose in that sense, you have a point.

How much of a percentage do you think the progressive movement is compared to the US population? 
What counts as a progressive? I think that failing to credit the progressive movement with an ideological core is a mistake.

I don't think this is true. I can be highly educated in theism but still not be a progressive.
When I say highly educated, I tend to mean possessing college degrees. Obviously, not all college-educated people are progressives, but most progressives are college-educated.

I am a font of great advice. I just imagine what I would do and I tell people to do the opposite of that. They do it and next thing you know they end up as happy healthy well-adjusted members of society

Care to apply this to trans women being considered women?

In that case, you are asking whether I would choose to exist at all if I knew that existence would be unhappy. Yet, it seems to me, that I, as a collection of memories and experiences, cannot render a decision about what I would want, because I must first exist in order to do so. I would then reject the premise of your question.
Your existence is a sperm cell aware of your entire history but will lose all that history when planting on the egg. Care to answer now?
Is the question philosophical? Sure. I suppose in that sense, you have a point.
oke doke.
What counts as a progressive? I think that failing to credit the progressive movement with an ideological core is a mistake.
"a social or political movement that aims to represent the interests of ordinary people through political change and the support of government actions"
When I say highly educated, I tend to mean possessing college degrees. Obviously, not all college-educated people are progressives, but most progressives are college-educated.
Okay? It is best to find out the percentage you use then I'll come back to this. 

What about the progressive movement public figures?

This reads as an attempt at a "gotcha" question. That being said, referring to trans women as women does not violate our basic understanding of the terms involved when one apprehends the nuances of those terms. We first have to distinguish between "sex" and "gender." Sex deals with one's biological, chromosomal assignment. Gender deals with one's expression of social constructed feminine/masculine norms. The term "woman" is used to refer to both sex and gender, depending on the context. In the context of referring to someone as a trans woman, we're referring to their expression of gender, not to their sex.

Your existence is a sperm cell aware of your entire history but will lose all that history when planting on the egg. Care to answer now?
I doubt that a haploid cell would be able to apprehend the information required to make such a judgement.

a social or political movement that aims to represent the interests of ordinary people through political change and the support of government actions
That definition is unhelpfully overbroad. Wikipedia tends to craft sweeping definitions because it lacks the gumption to get specific. Progressivism is, in the US context, a left-of-center movement that calls for evidence-based sociopolitical reforms which are geared to helping the least well off in society. From this, we can glean that progressivism is not populist, is aimed at ending severe income inequality and ensuring a basic standard of living for all, is for using government regulation and action to achieve its aims, and rejects social darwinism/rugged individualism.

The mainstream within the Democratic Party is progressive, and we often use "progressive" as a synonym for "liberal" in the American political context. I think that is a fair (if imprecise) equivocation, as progressivism is inherently not conservative. More accurately, we can say that progressivism is the economic and socioeconomic component of modern American liberalism.
