New ep of Slate’s Working podcast w/ @parabasis featuring @jujuhann and Adam Rosenblatt, the scientist who helped with much of the research for Cascade: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wor…
All of this is to say that I’m a writer and I think language and meaning matter and especially online, there’s so much that sounds good but is actually drawn from false consensus and could use more scrutiny.
i’m responsible for this btw 🙂 subscribe to bookforum and your crappy iphone pdf can circulate the internet too

The Lauren Oyler takedown in Bookforum still has me reeling. There's panning a book, and then there's taking the time to figure out that the author exclusively used first results on google for their research lol. The Mortal Kombat of book reviews
i'm reading The Method by @parabasis and it's remarkable how actual Stanislavski Brand Method Acting (as opposed to Daniel Day-Lewis stuff) reads to us (me) as literally what acting is, like it's hard to imagine doing it any other way
A very pleasant surprise in the mailbox today from @parabasis: a truly excellent essay. Subscribe if you don’t already.

Really great program tonight at the @Center4Fiction where @parabasis led a fantastic post-performance fireside chat with the masterful Tony Kushner. It's been whirling in my mind all evening.
Shame on @vulture for amplifying this sickness (I use that word advisedly) when so many in the theater world have died because of this horrible disease, and two specifically that we could name within the last few years. vulture.com/article/victor…
Tomorrow at 7 PM, Tony Kushner will be in conversation with @parabasis at @Center4Fiction. Interspersed with the conversation, actors F. Murray Abraham, Linda Emond, James Cusati-Moyer, and Ben Shenkman will perform readings from iHo. centerforfiction.org/event/story-te…

On today’s show, @dankois and @parabasis join Steve to discuss The Zone of Interest! Jonathan Glazer’s audacious film about the Holocaust has split critics—but why? Then, the panel dives in to Nyad before tackling the question: what is a director, anyway? slate.com/podcasts/cultu…

New ep of Slate’s Working podcast w/ @parabasis featuring @jujuhann and Adam Rosenblatt, the scientist who helped with much of the research for Cascade: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wor…
@parabasis @MattZeitlin Me too. Halfway through and realising I basically knew nothing
@parabasis crazy plot is intact, silly writing intact ("you are bugs!") bland characters intact, although replaced by starlets who make unconvincing physics geniuses, some interesting questions (is humanity worth saving, would you rather die soon or live forever) other things glossed over.
Need @parabasis to weigh in on Imperioli staying in character to…eject a climate protester? Method??
@BrndnStrssng This is the sort of thing that drove @parabasis off Twitter.
@parabasis Just came across your review of the Winkler book and thought you might enjoy this essay I wrote in response to a Reform Judaism cover article claiming S. was Jewish: levraphael.com/wasshakespeare…
First reaction to the phrase "Butlerian Jihad" is still the momentary "did @parabasis see a dumb tweet about Shakespeare or Method acting again....?"
@parabasis Gonna have to get Criterion now. Nice, Isaac!
@SlateCultFest @parabasis @dankois Weird, I also tried to watch Silence on a plane. Not sure why.
@SlateCultFest @dankois @parabasis “Zone of Interest” is a BRILLIANT film! It has generated some “backlash” because— these days EVERYTHING does! . . . (“Nyad” is pretty enjoyable.)
"We walked through the maternity ward and saw 218 babies wearing nylons"
I really want to thank everyone who has reached out to us about our recent CRIMSON TIDE episode on @diehardoab. The feedback has been overwhelming. All down to the brilliance of @parabasis of course! pod.link/1658664345
Thanks, Isaac! See you again for another epic actor duel!
This was so much fun to do! Take a listen if you love acting, submarines, acting on submarines, the end of the world etc.
I'm so proud of this episode. If you haven't read Isaac's book, well, I don't know if we can be friends.* *we can still be friends, but read it.
