honorable mentions: "escape is at hand for the travellin' man", "last chance for a slow dance", "the universe is going to catch you", "you got time and i got money"

my core frustration with bender is that the last leg she's standing on—i.e., that her system produces "meaning" in a ways that LLM's don't—is as hard to falsify as it is to actually prove. like given similar parsing systems are being sunsetted, it's just weird purity posturing atp

'preciate it!

deserved win for bad bunny, DtMF really felt like a realization of his sound

reminiscent of Pictures for Sad Children, though signature suggests some unknown artist

this would explain a lot of what happens in first reformed

(I realize now I'm fiveheading and it was an obvious answer but it's still funny that the WSJ is doing this)
