This could be the most ridiculous job posting I've ever seen. Base rate of $18/hour in the Seattle metro to be a janitor/admin assistant/supervisor/receptionist, with the possibility of getting up to $25/hour *if* the owner decides the social posts you also have to do are of an acceptable volume.

Oooh, look what my next hockey ticket is. Let's go, @pwhltorrent.bsky.social!

Wearing an *Oakland* A's sweatshirt at this #SeaKraken Sharks game so no one knows who I'm rooting for.

Since I do all my writing in the middle of the night, I finally picked a name for my humor newsletter: This Was Funny at 2 a.m.

I also made a really basic logo in Canva at 1 a.m. that's only slightly better than things I made in Paint when I was 9.

Sorry you had a bad day. You've earned dessert, too.

I got here an hour and a half before the #SeaKraken game so I can read in peace... with loud music and shaking seats because people are so excited to boo refs.

Hey guys, you can get paid $15/hour to work for "a baseball team that was founded in 1901."

The security guy saw I had this as I was arriving at the #SeaKraken game today, and he Michener fangirled out. He said he wouldn't spoil it for me, though, even refusing to tell me if it becomes a state or not.

Max Scherzer needs to keep playing for a long time because he can't get an office job. Can you imagine having this face staring at you while you gave a work presentation?

And leave it to my hair to be perfect on a night I'm dressed as David Tennant.

Tonight, I ran with a human-sized rat, Ms. Frizzle, the Grinch, two Michael Myers, bacon, and the cat in the hat.

When you have to go to a work function you're uninterested in.

My Dodgers animosity has blinded me to the charms of Kike for far too long.

I think we just found the biggest Jays fan. This was from a video asking what people would sacrifice for a Toronto World Series win.

My Halloween costume is sorted.

My cat is providing a visual representation of everyone watching this game.

I'm Elvis Purrsley. I eat the mail. I try to eat plastic, though my plans are usually foiled. I eat bits of fur on the ground. I eat human hair. I eat loose bits of the cat tree. And I will not be distracted from these aims even by fresh food in my dish.

How's my evening going? Apparently not as bad as Kraken Hockey Network's.

You've gotta admire the #SeaKraken 's exhausting strategy this season.
