Three whole lions? In this economy??

One of the strangest and most fascinating discoveries I made writing my book on the history of immersive art was Russian director Nikolai Evreinov. Here's why I think the best person to compare him to today is Nathan Fielder. Both brilliant, baffling, true believers in illusion and role play!

Only one question on my mind right now - is there any place in LA I can get to make me a Brunson Egg and Cheese?

😭😭😭

Because as it turns out, Wu-Tang Clan truly ain’t nothing to fuck with

This is the closest thing I’ve ever seen to Game 6 of the 1986 World Series

og anunoby will never pay for a drink ever again

a liitle over 5 years ago, I got a text:

I’ve been waiting 35 years the see an adaptation of The Vampire Lestat. I could not be any more seated

It’s unfair that we can’t have new Beastie Boys tracks that drop in the names of the current Knicks. What would MCA rhyme with Brunson?

Creator Jessica Creane's personal tale becomes a communal experience in this one of a kind immersive theatre piece. @writewhite.bsky.social has our review. www.noproscenium.com/tea-and-symp...

Oh, A24, how disappointing to turn the in-universe text into just another marketing channel. Do the Backrooms have Ovaltine?

I’m holding out for the Ovaltine Immersive Experience

Over at the Sleepy Hollow, 1998 Kickstarter, we sent out an update highlighting campaigns for a few friends of ours. Please check ‘em out: www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

It’s easy to make fun of *serious acting* but hot damn did Jeremy Allen White make me get invested in the emotional life of a Hutt

The SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998 kickstarter ended at a perfectly appropriate number!

The SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998 Kickstarter closes in ONE HOUR. No more pithy jokes or pop culture gifs. Just a straight plea for your support. If you like waiting until the last moment, here it is! www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

it’s the Last Day of the SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998 Kickstarter campaign. There’s still time to get a pie of your very own! www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

Self-promotion is difficult for me, but we're in the endgame now so here's my final pitch: back us on Kickstarter and you'll get the old-school thrill of actually looking forward to opening your mail. www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

48 hours to go in the SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998 crowdfunding campaign. Back it to find out what’s on the Headless Horseman’s cassette mixtape! www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

i've only gotten election related solicitations in my mailbox recently and real mail is fun. Good thing @jaybushman.bsky.social and @meganwesterby.bsky.social are making something cool for my mailbox. www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

If you can't sleep at night, it isn't the coffee. It’s…

We lost Liza Palmer this week. It’s so monumentally unfair Liza embodied joy. That joy could be sardonic, silly, dry, knowing. Joy that knew how dark things could be but persisted anyway. Her laugh was a thing to behold, pealing, infectious, capable of lighting up an entire room and everyone in it.

Watching the first episode of Widow’s Bay and I can’t wait for Mayor Tom to try opening a juice bar (complimentary)

We keep saying SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998 takes inspiration from Gilmore Girls. Now we’re bringing that to the next level, with the participation of an actual resident of Stars Hollow and a bunch of new add-on rewards in collaboration with @johncabrera.bsky.social. www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

What is a Kickstarter campaign if you don’t have any Stretch Goals!? We’ve just announced those for SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998. We’ve designed these stretch goals so that if we reach each one, everybody who backs will get the reward: www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

Mother Mary. That is all.

"SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998" has funded! Thanks to the 124 backers who got us to this point, the Headless Horseman will ride again! We’ve got a lot more in store, so come join the party. There’s pie! www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

It’s different than the first season, but Beef season 2 was extraordinary. and may be my favorite Oscar Isaac performance

There’s a moment when studying American history when you realize that with less than a handful of exceptions the Presidency has been filled with criminals, grifters, moral deviants, and mediocrities, and the fairly recent development of treating the office like a king is a nation-shattering tragedy.

The Nazi shit. But it was hard to make the shift. It would have been easier if there was, say, a crack designer unit that had been sentenced to internet jail for a crime they didn't commit, and who promptly escaped to the online underground where today they help people get off bullshit platforms

The only thing better than putting easter eggs into something is EXPLAINING all the easter eggs! How many nerdy knick-knacks can you spot in this picture? jaybushman.kit.com/posts/easter...

I know, right?

Wow, they really don’t warn you about the drop on the day after launching a Kickstarter. Kinda like a cousin to LARP drop

@jaybushman.bsky.social and I shared more details on the immersive storytelling parts of #SleepyHollow1998 with @noproscenium.com www.noproscenium.com/now-funding-...

Thanks @noproscenium.com!

Head back to the era of Y2K for a version of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow told through letters, sketches, and artifacts from the era of cassette tapes, flip phones, and zines. Our latest Now Funding is all about SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998, which launched today on Kickstarter.

We’ve been asked about what the age rating is for SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998. Neither me nor @meganwesterby.bsky.social have kids, so we’re having a hard time figuring out. So I turn to you, #parentsofbluesky

We just launched a Kickstarter for SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998 - a reimagining of the classic set in the 1990s and delivered through a series of letters that come to your mailbox. For anyone who loves classic literature, the 90s, or pie (pie plays a big role in the story) www.kickstarter.com/projects/jay...

Psyched to share that the Kickstarter campaign for “SLEEPY HOLLOW, 1998” goes live tomorrow morning! Here’s a sneak peek into what we’ve been cooking up: jaybushman.kit.com/posts/kickst...

This season of For All Mankind takes place in 2012. So which of the Mars kids is watching Lizzie Bennet Diaries?

And what are you, reader, but a Loose-Fish and a Fast-Fish, too?

I've had a version of this meeting I don’t know how many times: Them: We’re going to tell this really intense story on social media, get people invested, and then reveal it was all fiction. And they’ll be like, “cool!” Right? Me: That’s called a hoax. They’ll hate you for it.

Anyone want to meet up for a last meal at Johnie’s? #MiracleMile

Back in the early days of Twitter, I met a few other folks experimenting with the platform for telling stories, and we traded notes. (Shout out to @nicholasbelardes.bsky.social). Then, once a year like clockwork, someone would come onto the platform to announce. “The First Twitter Novel.”

Possibly unpopular opinion: having a canon - even one that badly needs subversion and disruption - is preferable to not having one. jaybushman.kit.com/posts/being-...
