[ID: Withnail is a Hamlet who exists on the margins of society. A collision between the traditional perceptions of Shakespeare and hippy counter-culture occurs here, during Withnail's final speech. The cultural significance of Hamlet is both endorsed and contracted by Withnail.

On the one hand, Grant plays Withnail as a Byronic figure who is undoubtably talented and creative but is also given to bouts of introspection, self-doubt and self-destruction (the features of the 'classic' 19th cent. Hamlet.) On the other hand, Withnail drops out of urban 'straight' society. He abdicates his privileged class background, where Shakespeare forms the bedrock of dramatic and literary tradition, to exist instead in a demi-monde dominated by alcohol and drugs. Even Withnail's escape to the country becomes a quest for survival, one cut short by his hasty return to city life. Ironically, the final scene civilization can Withnail negotiate his way through an existence that, to him, is no more than a 'quintessence of dust'.]

We report: there is a warm bit of wind tonight, but in comparison to the daytime temperatures, it feels like a crisp one. We find goosebumps on our arms. All of the outside smells have been stripped down to their earthiest components: hot dust, dry grass, salt.

If you really can’t do maths, isn’t it okay to transfer to the liberal arts class? But in liberal arts there are only people that I don’t know. You know, it’s your life, so don’t be easily swayed by others. I know.

May I present to you Wheel Running In the Wild, a published research paper that delights me to no end:

This paper intended to test whether would mice would run on a wheel if they found one, to try and determine if this was a natural behavior or a stress response in captivity. They put a wheel in a protected little box with a camera that took pictures any time the wheel turned, and tallied up how often it was used by what.

Mice were, happily, the most common users of the wheel, and their patterns of use indicated they were doing so voluntarily once they figured it out.

But the second most common users.

Those were slugs.
