So did anyone else feel like the title card for Taylor Swift’s Bad Blood music video, with her lying on a crushed car after jumping from a skyscraper, was a fairly repulsive appropriation of the infamous photograph of Evelyn McHale’s body, taken after she jumped from the Empire State building?

A white scarf drifts in the morning sky
her gray cloth coat sleeps on the railing
and she like a long dark bird descends
clutching her pearls
Evelyn wants only to die
to die
Taylor Swift and I
say girlfriend please
such a beautiful story
Evelyn leaves black and white pictures behind
and she like a ghost steps into the sky
clutching her pearls
such a beautiful end
Evelyn says let me die
let me die
