additionally, Greasy Pizza Shame is a great name for a band likely featured in Warped Tour

[Bret Adkins @bretadkins]

The receipt for my pizza purchase suggested I share with my friends just how easy it is to order their pizza online.
I've done that just now, but want to add it's also just that easy to give up on dinner plans and sink into the couch in greasy pizza shame.

@stullong Congratulations! It’s been an honor to work for and with you for the past few years doing some awesome work. You will be missed immensely, sir!

[Bret Adkins @bretadkins]

@EkdahlMr Hmmmm...I’ll get this to the team first thing tomorrow morning. A Twitter work request is a first for me :-)

[Bret Adkins @bretadkins]

didn't think i was too tired until i found myself at a stop sign early this morning waiting for it to turn green. Pro tip: stop signs don't change colors. #justaweebitexhausted

I conservatively estimate I’ve stolen at least 500 pens from work over the past 5 years, yet I can’t find one this whole week. ...swimming in tape dispensers, though.

The internet should be more this

[Sage Boggs @sageboggs]

OK, buckle up. I wanna talk to you about Triscuit.

[Bret Adkins @bretadkins]

@AutumnFoster I’m going to give it a try tomorrow and see if I’m Special K material...or Special K will see if they’re Bret material.

[Bret Adkins @bretadkins]

Had I known that I’d be forced to consider Special K as a legit cereal option, I would have washed my hands this often years ago.

The protocol around our home office is now parallel to a home with a single bathroom:
Wife: [knocks quietly], are you done in there, I have to use it
Me: I'm almost done, I’ll hurry
Wife: [3 minutes later, coughs loudly]
Me: sorry, this is taking longer than anticipated

Doing a little informal research: as a parent/caregiver what support from educators would be the most helpful when home with kids for next month or more to continue learning?

[Bret Adkins @bretadkins]

*These* are the times when we realize having decision makers in our schools who represent our diverse communities really matter. #noteveryonecanconnect

Might I suggest a visit to this page to help halt the use of the word ‘unprecedented’? Thanks! https://t.co/DeR9AllBl8

Got to spend the day with Common Sense Media’s @SueThotz learning about realistic K-12 digital citizenship implementation. Have a lot to do, but @canbyschools is up for the work ahead. #NCCE2020

@ACPEnw “Holy crap, dad...you should always go to this conference!” Said after handing my son the boundless opportunity housed within his new cardboard VR headset. #acpenw

[Bret Adkins @bretadkins]

Want to start some provocative conversations in your district around how/when/why we should implement technologies? Lookup EdTech Speed Chats! #orpdc

[Bret Adkins @bretadkins]

Members of the @canbyschools Technology Advisory are happily absorbing SO MUCH CONTENT, and will take back MANY new tools for integrating technology into our classrooms! #iPDX19 @oetc @CanbyLearns

A few months ago I snapped my 15 year old @OrvisFlyFishing rod as I drove a rough (very rough) mountain road in search of PNW trout. A few weeks later, due to Orvis standing by their product, I'm staring a brand new Recon rod. Thank you...you've got a lifelong customer.

[Clackamas Education Service District @clackesd]

Nobody is talking about this issue. Everyone needs to be. Thanks to local school leaders for standing up to cybercrime. https://t.co/9gOI2suEa4 #clackcoedu

@YouthMedia479 using the same tactics the commercial sector uses, but aimed at promoting healthy behaviors. The other side of a 2-edge sword
