Jeg We voted early so missed out. Looks delicious. 2w

LeahBergen I didn‘t get a sausage for voting here in Canada on Monday! 😠😆😆 2w

CarolynM @Aims42 Australia voted in the federal election today. Our polling places are mostly school and church halls. A lot of their communities use it as an opportunity to raise money by holding sausage sizzles and sometimes cake stalls. It‘s become a part of the culture to buy a sausage after casting your vote. 2w

CarolynM @TheBookHippie It‘s a community building thing 🙂 Doesn‘t matter who you vote for, everyone wants to buy a sausage. 2w

CarolynM @Teresereading @Jeg Nevermind, maybe you‘ll get one next time😆 2w

CarolynM @Reggie It was pretty good 😋 2w

TheLudicReader I just heard about this…so funny! 2w

CarolynM @LeahBergen We have to buy them from the fundraisers, they‘re not just handed out you know😆 I‘m watching the results coming in at the moment. It looks like we are replicating the Canadian result 🙌🎉 2w

TheBookHippie @CarolynM how fun! 2w

The Federalist Papers: Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, John Jay | Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, John Jay, Ian Shapiro

I just opened some book mail to discover this atrocity. 😭 I hope it comes off.

marleed Ohh that‘s bad😟 2w

Ruthiella Yikes! It‘s huge. Using a blow dryer to loosen the stickum often works for me. 2w

dabbe They owe you a virgin book! 😱 2w

TheBookgeekFrau 😲🤯🤬 And to add insult to injury, it's upside down! 2w

bookandbedandtea @marleed @Ruthiella @Deblovestoread @nanuska_153 @dabbe Fortunately, it came off pretty easily and didn't damage the cover. But sheesh! 2w

bookandbedandtea @TheBookgeekFrau Right?! As if it isn't horrifying enough to slap an enormous sticker smack in the middle of the cover they also had to put it upside down?? 🤦‍♀️ It came off pretty easily, though, so all is well. 2w

TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea Oh good! Because that was a pretty bad case of book abuse. 2w

nanuska_153 I actually just noticed it's the federalist papers, that's such an interesting read (I love Constitutional Law). Are you going to listen to Hamilton while reading it? 😂 (Also love musicals xD) 2w

bookandbedandtea @nanuska_153 I can‘t say I had thought of that but I‘m thinking it now! 👀🎼 2w

TieDyeDude They are so lazy in their racism, they can't even come up with a good excuse. Nothing about "DEI" justifies erasing any mention of the accomplishments of someone who happens to be a person of color. 3w

This was a great read. It definitely got my heart racing throughout. It definitely had an Orwell feel to it. It was truly worth the read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great collection of classic American documents, speeches, poems, etc. George Washington‘s speeches had a lot of big words that didn‘t say a whole lot. I also didn‘t know that it used to be first choice was made President and second choice was made Vice President. Teddy Roosevelt liked long, run-on sentences. The pledge of allegiance didn‘t originally have “under god” in it! President Eisenhower insisted it be added by Congress in 1954.
