bumble

In the play, two minor characters from Shakespeare’s “Hamlet” bumble about, confused about their role in the prince’s drama, and wander into existential discussions about the search for meaning.

Brilliant but frequently misunderstood, George is dismissed by one potential suspect as “a bumbling, disorganized eccentric.”

That was the path he had chosen: to die to all who knew him, and to all he knew—his devoted wife, his bumbling, nearsighted son, his palatial home, his vast fortune.

He says he feels like he's the "bumbling buffoon" in the "walled garden that is traditional publishing" and that he's committed a kind of "literary heist".

"With how important bumble bees are as pollinators, it made sense to try and understand more about what's going on in these tiny nectar wars, because they could have a big impact," Miner said.
