Dynamite recently had a Nancy Drew miniseries comic
I mean, my impression from reading 19th century novels is that people used to just slip into a convenient glen or wooded area, it wasn't that hard before the industrial era.
Counter-point: When you fly to another time zone, your body naturally adjusts to the new local time. If sleep cycles were totally malleable, you would just stay on your original sleep cycle until you decided to change…

Many years ago I got to see a Warhol retrospective at MoMA, and seeing the early works in person was a revelation. My own tastes leaned more toward the "traditional" abstract expressionists and I thought Warhol was too…
