          @neiltyson @norman933 So you've decided that the new ones needed to be misinformed as well? I thought you are into science literacy.

          @neiltyson I appreciate what you do for science but your knowledge of biology may not be deep enough. Wrong tweets undermine your message.

          @ZackSacks @neiltyson @norman933 Just the fact that you remember one of his tweets from 2012 is creepy. Said more about you than him.

          @BevDiane @neiltyson that is a weird definition of creepy. I bet if you search a random ndt tweet you have good odds of it being a duplicate

          @ZackSacks @BevDiane @neiltyson Weird indeed. The only reason the sex tweets are considered "creepy" is because they are coming from a man.

          @ZackSacks @BevDiane @neiltyson when someone says @neiltyson 's tweets are creepy when they involve sex. The above is not the only instance.
