#but it is infuriating how explicitly mob boss/fraudster influenced the character is and instead he's treated like some boogeyman

[jockpoetry]

btw no one asked + not expanding, but genuinely if i was given the reigns to do an adaptation it would be much more brba x the wire (perhaps a pinch of sopranos, but far more the wire just bc of the dynamics at play and the spidery aspects) because that's who the character is.

no one has. like ever once really seen him as that despite that being the source of influence.
