One month until release day! Avoid the chaotic release day rush by preordering it today at your favorite bookseller (and yes you can preorder the audiobook too)! Also, if you are in the Midwest of the United States, come see me on my book tour, details at link: whatever.scalzi.com/2026/09/17/a...

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

We're leading Susan Collins in another poll despite the millions of dollars Elon and Republican dark money groups are dumping into this race. They can spend all they want, but they can't convince Mainers Senator Collins is on the side of working people.

The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

So pissed they'll vote for a Democrat (ic Socialist)? Or are they just whining and will hold their nose in Nov to vote GOP? My guess is the latter. I hope they stay home and don't vote.

There are at least two provisions in the U.S. Code that make it illegal to offer or accept a $5,000 "GOP Dividend" for voting. Both the offerer (Donald Trump) and the accepter (good luck with that!) are liable for fines and jail time.

Sadly,our republic is doomed. The forces that could have easily stopped a buffoon like Trump bent the knee instantly. When a modern-day Sulla appears, they will collapse entirely and fully collaborate in our democracy’s demise.

We & the media are NOT talking enough about how a Florida grand jury found that $10 million was funneled from a settlement intended to benefit Florida taxpayers to Ron DeSantis’s wife’s illegitimate “charity” (that never registered with the IRS), where it was laundered before it got to the FLA GOP.
