After finishing an episode of The ポルノグラフィティ lineLast of Usa trip to the internet is pretty much mandatory, whether it's to read up on the latest clues, compare the show with the game, find out more about a new character, or simply share in a collective outpouring of intense grief.
But another place you should really be checking is Bella Ramsey's Twitter feed.

The emoji tweet is a reference to the joke Ellie (Ramsey) tells Joel (Pedro Pascal) at the end of episode 4, as they're about to go to sleep in an abandoned building:
"Joel, did you know diarrhoea is hereditary?"
"What?"
"Yeah, it runs in your jeans."
The joke is from the book Ellie carries around in her backpack, No Pun Intended: Volume Too by Will Livingston, which she gleefully reads aloud to Joel in idle moments, sparking little to no reaction from her guardian.
