@tedcruz Ted, you would know about shame. If you were honest, I mean.

[Bill Heavey @bill_heavey]

@franakviacorka Wow. Can’t make that up

Only a pretty dumb species could invent machines smarter than we are...

@clarissawam Okay, you're angry. You have a right to be. But if you "hate all men," where does that leave us? Where does it take us? Hatred breeds hatred. What if men and women could find common ground?

[Bill Heavey @bill_heavey]

@Blind5ite @LisaLeftyLoosie @JuddApatow I don't quite follow. The vid is on the toxic #yesallmen. Most of us are trying to grow, to learn. We don't need pats on the back, but neither should we be dismissed out of hand.

[Bill Heavey @bill_heavey]

@om_eye_goodness Fantastic that you posted this. It needed to be said. I'm old enough to be your father, maybe grandfather. And this is how I want my daughter, 19, to be. My suspicion is that among men, all of us have been this guy at least once. Many of us have learned something since.

@LiteratePervert @tsdoodle what does that mean, to "apologize for men"? i'm sincerely curious. who can/should do that and can one man or woman take that on on behalf of half the world? i'm not trying to start a fight, just learn. thanks

@titanrx8 @MSNBC @realDonaldTrump Absolutely genius move to drop embrella and KEEP MOVING

@nakiata_ @pregame_eric @edwardwinkleman I agree with you. I'm among the people outraged at the total polarization of both parties. (Republicans cynically blocked Obama's hearings on Merrick Garland for 293 days. Dems want to do same with Kavannaugh.) If everyone says 'fuck it,' we're done for. It's up to each of us.

Now when I see doctors, and ask about how I can stay functional longer, all replies end with re-assurances that I’m doing well “for a man your age.” Like it’s great that I can still chew my own food and not slobber too much on myself.

@ScottvanLaer Scott, Been trying for days to find you for days. Writer doing a book about how people can easily die in the wilderness. You were first to Bllake & Maddie. Pls email at [email protected]. Idea Is that individual stories of much more impact than statistics. Thank you.

[Bill Heavey @bill_heavey]

@JayHalePal That is amazing, Jay. Small world, no? When I was living in South Arlington, there was a guy two houses away whose father had also. His dad drove LST's to shore full of troops. "I always wondered how many of those guys didn't come back," he said.

[Bill Heavey @bill_heavey]

@JHTuten @gardenandgun Thank you, sir. I've always found that true. Appreciate it.

[Bill Heavey @bill_heavey]

Wow, Jay, that’s crazy. A small world. Purple Heart at Leyte. You must be very proud https://t.co/771TCKulSL

[Jay Hale @JayHalePal]

@bill_heavey was catching up on your 4/2013 F&S column (that's what real men do) and realized my grandad served under yours in the 2nd ESB! He earned the Purple Heart at Leyte. Small world!

[Bill Heavey @bill_heavey]

oung Jack M.- a pure heart if there ever was one - has been selected to the Balti Boy Scouts Council to go to Kawasaki, Japan this summer. He needs your help. His mom doesn't have the dough. Can you give $3? Please? https://t.co/zNY2KmKzUJ …

[Bill Heavey @bill_heavey]

Told the story of me and my Dad at a Story District performance. Figure if I'm scared to do something, it usually means I should. Sometimes I do.

@Jimbo_Miller You bet. Thanks, Jim.

Like I care about Motel 6’s bathrooms’ problems.

Time to stand up and be counted. The EPA Administrator has to go before the planet does. The guy makes bad news look like winning the lottery. https://t.co/k2pF25K4Mj
