How D.C. tackled a child care crunch through a tax hike on the rich

Mediocre performance from me this year. 3/5 correct in the top 5, 4/5 if you include my honorable mentions. Still think Gracie and Del were robbed.
Other highlights include having a “coastal grandmother strut indie pop” phase in April and a “pink Pilates princess catwalk pop” phase in September
