The technical, linguistic name for this couldn’t be better: “Zero Derivation.” 🤯 Head to our YouTube channel if you want to watch this one play out.And don’t forget to mark your calendar: the first live discussion in our fall series on Love Is the Failure of the Unbewoops (Seminar XXIV) is fast approaching!
