I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated.
Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.)
But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.
Despite how difficult this job can be, I am proud to be a foreign correspondent at The Washington Post.

From literal drug kingpin to community sherpa, this episode tracks the evolution of an Eastside barber. Today he performs grim and valorous work for families of murder victims: Reconstructing their hair, and heads, for open casket viewings. npr.org/podcasts/1268721631/…

Got an emotional call this morning from the widow of JSO Corrections Officer Brad McNew. "I would love to know how I get you for his court case," she told Judge Corrigan. "What you are saying is so beautiful about how you handle your court." bit.ly/3NPNe5m

We took a deep dive today into a proposed bioethanol plant in Fernandina Beach. Residents fear it poses health & safety risks. The company, RYAM (@rayonier) says it's good for the small town. RYAM employee Mayor Bean has declined to hold a public meeting x.com/FCConair/status/180122…

@rayonier asked for this clarification: They are no longer part of the chemical company @RayonierAM, which wants to build the bioethanol plant in Fernandina Beach. Noted: The timber function split from the chemical side in 2014 bit.ly/3zc6o1e
