AI Companies Bought Out All of Western Digitalโ€™s Hard Drives for 2026 Already Thanks to data center demands, Western Digital has committed all of its HDDs for at least the rest of the year.

I have eaten
the disks
that were in
production

and which
you were probably
saving
for your PC

Forgive me
they were so capacious
so fast

the top half of our fridge, which does have french doors, and the cabinet above the fridge. The right door of the cabinet is open, and Ginny is inside of it. it's always left open because she likes to be up there. Her front paws are braced on the half of the fridge that is not open and I had to reach in and around to the side to fetch the butter.

whenever possible, choose a fridge with french doors so as not to disturb the catgoyle

Charlie is sitting at the top of the stairs, and Saja is laying on the stair directly below that. Both are looking toward the camera.

For the entire history of first amendment law, porn has been the canary in the coal mine and sex workers are always, ALWAYS correct about what's coming years before anyone else can see it.

Sex workers in Nevada fighting to become first in U.S. to unionize Nevada is the only state where people can legally purchase sex, and now sex workers at one of the state's oldest brothels, Sheri's Ranch, are fighting to become the first in the U.S. to unionize.

Sex work is work.

Solidarity to these workers as they unionize. And kudos to my @wbng.org parent union, @cwaunion.bsky.social, for supporting the organizing.

For those who don't know, my site is at scalzi.com and I post there on an almost daily basis (as does @athenascalzi.com). You can also set it up in your RSS feed and can even subscribe to it via email so it feels like a newsletter. I don't charge money for any of it because I don't need or want to.

We hit the stretch goal that added a fourth sticker to our new travel sticker set on the Kickstarter! This one is designed so it can be cut in half to make two stickers! The campaign runs for about eight more days.

Screenshot of a CNN segment shared by Acyn. A split-screen shows commentator Lydia Moynihan on the left and Kevin Oโ€™Leary on the right during a heated exchange. The chyron reads, โ€œObama: Dems need to avoid scolding and โ€˜virtue-signaling.โ€™โ€ The post quotes Oโ€™Leary referencing China and concentration camps, and McGowan responding about West Virginia.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

I will say if you want to ensure no one EVER takes a spouse's name at marriage again, this would do it in under 2 years.

It causes credit problems, social security headaches, a ton of paperwork, it disenfranchises me? No, honey, I'm keeping my name. If you don't like it, we ain't getting married.

I've been thinking quite a lot about the necessary preconditions for disabled and chronically ill Americans to be able to rely on a guarantee of healthcare.

With every new public health low (e.g. PH leaders praising Oz as he murders disabled Americans), it seems increasingly difficult

-A living wage
-Guaranteed healthcare
-The right to join a union
-The right to vote
-The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family
-The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence

These are the foundations of real freedom.

TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON

This cartoon has four panels, each showing a different scene. In addition, thereโ€™s a small โ€œkickerโ€ panel under the fourth panel.

PANEL 1

The panel shows a counter at a fast food restaurant. We can see a couple of customers, and a couple of workers. The workers are wearing hats that very vaguely resemble hamburger buns. A sign on the wall shows a smiling hamburger with eyes, below the caption โ€œSoilent Green YUM.โ€ A smaller sign says โ€œSAFETYโ€ in larger letters followed by tiny print, which says โ€œis a word we use a lot so you canโ€™t sue us.โ€

The worker at the cash register is turning to speak directly to the reader.

WORKER: To get an official photo I.D., I have to go to the nearest government office, which is 90 miles away, and I donโ€™t have a car, and even if I did my boss wonโ€™t give me a weekday off.

PANEL 2

Weโ€™re in what looks like someoneโ€™s back yard. In the foreground is a garden, with some sort of plant being grown in tidy rows. An elderly woman is kneeling on the ground in front of the garden, wearing a floppy straw hat, an apron with a floral patter, and holding a trowel. She speaks directly to the reader.

WOMAN: I canโ€™t get I.D. without a birth certificate. But when I was born home births didnโ€™t get birth certificates.

PANEL 3

A mover wearing jeans and a black tank top is carrying a sofa as heโ€™s talking to the reader. 
MOVER: The state charges $60 for a driverโ€™s licenseโ€ฆ. but first Iโ€™d need a copy of my birth certificate, which is $30. I canโ€™t afford 90 dollars to vote!

PANEL 4

This panel shows the interior of a coffee shop. A man and a woman sit together at a table. They're both looking at their devices, him annoyed, her dismissive.
MAN: Why wouldnโ€™t anyone be able to get an I.D.? Idiots!
WOMAN: People like that donโ€™t deserve to vote.

SMALL KICKER PANEL UNDER THE BOTTOM OF THE CARTOON
The man from panel 4 yelling at Barry
MAN: If itโ€™s easy for me it must be easy for everybody! Thatโ€™s just science!
