Kanye’s latest video has him burying Pete Davidson alive. ---

I definitely enjoy Kanye’s music, but yeah, his behaviour is definitely concerning here & a lot of the time, really. He definitely has a mental thing going on, whether good or bad. ---

So, what’s the consensus here? Are we supposed to hide Pete Davidson in our basements and after a month move him along to the next house on the list to keep him alive? Would he even pay for room & board? ---

> [@Miller](#): > > You’re probably confusing him with Tom Hiddleston, who had a slightly cringey, short lived relationship with Swift about five years back. Not only that, but since Swift and Kardashian have a bad history, it was reportedly awkward when Davidson and Swift performed a skit together on SNL back in November.

I usually try not to encourage folks to commit suicide, however I have no qulams, here, of proferring the concept. It would eliminate whatever worries he might having. ---

But he wouldn’t go quietly… right beforehand, he’d either tear a microphone away from Taylor Swift and recite a long _“This world isn’t pure enough for my genius”_ poem… Or threaten ‘Skete’ with a shiv on the SNL set, then say “Just kidding! Did you SEE your face, bro?” and turn it on himself. Bad news is, we’d still get a recitation of the poem. ---

But it is fun playing with with the idea. Just like “Lindsay Graham finally took a stand on Pootin… take him out. But he’ll have to wait to see if Donald (and an angry mob at the airport) agree. If not, he’ll just turn a one-eighty as usual.” ---

You can only bury someone alive. If you’re dead, you’re not burying anyone or anything. ---

A person could be, say, buried under a pile of corpses. If you’re one of those corpses, you’re technically burying that guy. ---

Ha ha! That’s edgy! You have edges! Ha ha! You know, you could say the same thing about any kind of music or art, but I get it. You’re sophisticated. (Or something.)
