The Cure at Troy: A Version of Sophocles' Philoctetes | Seamus Heaney

A very special Joetry selection for this very special day. Heaney is one of Biden‘s favourite poets, and he has even quoted this same poem (the stanza before these three from the end of the poem). This could have been written for 2020-2021, and Inauguration Day 2021 itself.

Biden: The Obama Years and the Battle for the Soul of America | David Lienemann

In less than a week, this thoroughly-decent, compassionate, intelligent human will be in the White House, and I could not be happier. Lienemann‘s book and photographs completely capture the spirit of Joe Biden, and the hope for a return to a kinder, more tolerant America. #biden #davidlienemann #joebiden #presidentbiden #hope #potus46

Darklunarose It‘s going to be nice to have a decent human and not orange Caligula in the White House. 3y

actualdisneyprincess @Darklunarose AMEN. 🙌🏻🙏🏻 And someone with legitimate statesmanship!!! Who won‘t embarrass us on the world‘s stage!!! AND WHO LOVES HIS FAMILY. (What a concept!!!) 3y

Darklunarose @actualdisneyprincess all of that, and so very much more! 3y

Anything for a Vote: Dirty Tricks, Cheap Shots, and October Surprises in U.S. Presidential Campaigns | Joseph Cummins

I voted, by mail, at the beginning of October. Its not like I had a hard decision who I was voting for. I look forward to a casual readathon to take my mind of the coming storm of increasing election BS, my phone is ringing off the hook from damn robo-callers from both parties. I'm off work the 28th, 30th and 3rd so I will get in some quality reading time, if I can stay focused.

TheBookDream Does it count if I‘m voting tomorrow? Can I participate? 4y

RamsFan1963 @TheBookDream Of course you can. I assume "early" means any time before the official November 3rd election day. 4y

SamAnne I wish I could just fall into a deep sleep and wake up November 4th. Or that I could just go on a drunken party bender without a care in the world. Until November 4th. In retrospect, I wish I had scheduled an off grid vacation somewhere with no internet access. Most years I am doing election volunteering, but this year with Covid, I'm not (I just hate the phone calling stuff). Ugh. Barrett's confirmation today was just too much for me.

TheBookDream @SamAnne I hear that. I also normally volunteer for election stuff, but can‘t due to Covid (I thought about it, but I am having some serious trouble functioning outside my house so it‘s not happening 😩). It suuuuucks 4y

Hope Never Dies: An Obama/Biden Mystery | Andrew Shaffer

I finally got my copy of this book and I can't wait to read it! I love mysteries and this has the added bonus of Obama and Biden teaming up for justice! After all the stuff I've been facing over the last 7 months I hope this will be a fun and restorative read. 💙

InLibrisVeritas This looks like so much fun 6y
