Since many of us are cancelling streaming services, now might also be a good time to support writers and artists. Times are extremely tough for creatives, so why not buy a book, commission an art piece, sign up for a Patreon, tip your favorite creators. Everything helps.

In the midst of all the terrible i am delighted to bring some good news. We’re going all in on commissioning at McCarter. We are so thrilled to announce this one today and open I & You this weekend. Let us share stories! Let us feel feelings! Let us bring people together in theaters for all of it.

(We took a long drive today. And I was very bored. And maybe a little grouchy.) Me: Pull into the next rest area. Matt: (to him) What’s the correlative for “hangry” for when you’re cranky and have to pee? Him: (Pause. Reflect.) Pissgruntled.

Three years ago we unpacked this truck by ourselves after leaving Ashland for Princeton. A long time and no time at all.

Was just in the local grocery and got excited that ice cream’s on sale. Lady said I should go to the bigger store it’s cheaper. I said, yeah, but I just want to go home and eat ice cream after this day, the bill. And she said isn’t it great! And without thinking I said I’m sorry for your children.

But it's no use, says he. Force, hatred, history, all that. That's not life for men and women, insult and hatred. And everybody knows that it's the very opposite of that that is really life. ~ James Joyce, Ulysses. Happy Bloomsday.
