Some Greek vases depict Neoptolemus "using Astyanax's dead body to club the old king [Priam] to death in front of horrified onlookers."

@dinosaur_info i mean what you're doing is impossible, because no matter what number wound up in that last slot i would feel offended, probably. but knowing that doesn't stop my feelings

@dinosaur_info you can get somewhere thinking he's pulling a david chase — that he was just putting on a happy, simpleton's face for the rabid media wanting him to spoonfeed them the meaning of the show. but... you can't get all the way on that read. the show is airtight, his reads are... not.

@dinosaur_info i spent tons of time after the series ended consuming every weiner postmortem, and ultimately, doing this reavealed there was no reason to do it. in a basic "author's dead" kind of way, it doesn't matter if he gets it. his writers' room does, and they seem to steward the show.

[Erikk Geannikis @erikk38]

@dinosaur_info this is just an absolutely wonderful way to characterize that last shot. the octopus parallel is fantastic.

[Erikk Geannikis @erikk38]

@dinosaur_info i think they leave him on the edge. the guy who felt he was light-years removed from his natural habitat when he moved to connecticut is now gonna be based in wichita — or really based nowhere. based in the sky. will that work? or will he find a new pied-à-terre back in the city?

@DelRey my mind knows this is a pretty good joke, but my body just reacted in such a way that says: don't even joke

@IrvingSwisher the timing of it, screams dolan
