@higdonmarathon All these spring-like days recently make me feel guilty about “wasting” a nice day by not running, so off I go, sore legs and all. 😩 🏃🏽‍♀️

SHOCK! New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is tapping out from politics. Will leave the job in the next month.

"I know what this job takes. And I know that I no longer have enough in the tank to do it justice."

She has also called an election for October 14

The New York Times is ON STRIKE.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is ON STRIKE.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram is ON STRIKE.

Many other newsrooms are bargaining hard for fair union contracts. You can journalism by supporting journalists. Don’t cross picket lines.

… and the actions of one powerful, thieving family of war criminals who’ve used the country’s coffers as their personal spending account.

@stuffaboutstuff Such a big loss for Reuters but huge gain for your future employer. Enjoy your time off and all the best with the new adventure!

From @markets
By hiking less than consensus forecast,the Bank of Canada’s policy decision is reinforcing the notion of a more generalized central bank pivot (with markets now defining pivot to mean a slower pace of rate hikes as opposed to the prior definitions of cut and pause)

@ploriggio She’s the expert 😄One of my biggest regrets from my time in Japan was not visiting S. Korea so glad you’re already planning a trip! Also, I haven’t been in touch with Jiyeon in ages but I think she’s in Seoul.

[New York Times World @nytimesworld]

Tigray is the world’s unseen war, hidden behind a punishing government siege that has severed communications in the region, locked out reporters and left 5.2 million people in urgent need of food. United Nations investigators have called it a war crime. https://t.co/3InQqQsbA8

@ploriggio How exciting… I’m sure you’ll have a blast! Look forward to hearing about your adventures there. Safe travels!

Gotabaya Rajapaksa is to return to Sri Lanka.

He will be protected by his own 'new security division' and a government house in Colombo.

He will have faced no accountability for the economic disaster or the genocide he inflicted.

The international community has failed. Again.
