I don't want to overhype it, but you have very good things to look forward to when you get to catch up with Reservation Dogs. I'm sad it's ended, but it finished really strong. (I'm somewhat consoled that the second season of We Are Lady Parts is being teased - and not to put more TV on your plate, but if you haven't seen that, I think you might like it a lot.)
Not exactly a Vermont recommendation, but if you get a chance to head over to New Hampshire, there is a fantastic family restaurant in Sugar Hill, Polly's Pancake Parlor, that is something of a local legend for very good reasons. It could be rolled into a day trip with the cog rail up Mt. Washington, which is pretty cool.
Thank you! I’ll look up Polly’s and see how far away I am. And I’m glad Res Dogs ended well, I think it’s good to have a story wrap up rather than running on endlessly.
Yes, as much as I'm bittersweet about a story I love ending, it's much more satisfying when it finishes thoughtfully than just peters out. And Starlin Harjo has said he'd love to come back to some of the characters in the future, if possible, so maybe we'll have more stories to look forward to.
Ooh, Sarah Waters! That makes me want to reread Tipping the velvet. Also, a comic about ACTUP by a teen 🥹 thanks for sharing about that--it feels like much-needed queer joy. I’d love to send you a zine for a swap if you’re up for that.
