Consider the humble “em dash” — some people use it to interject a completely different sentence in the middle of another — the next time you’re trying to avoid parentheses.
You can, although probably should not, use semicolons; they can be used to join related statements that could, very frequently, also stand on their own.
But I’ve already used commas to add more information to the sentence, how can I fit in more information without parentheses?
Stand over the person reading it and interject.
