In Ukraine, getting a manicure may be a small way for women to regain some normalcy. Even those in mines and on the front lines are doing their nails, often with patriotic motifs, like the blue and yellow colors of the Ukrainian flag. nyti.ms/4ebgRd3 by Kim Barker

Many Ukrainians are bitter at the notion that any occupied land will be ceded to Russia as part of a peace deal: “It’s like ripping off a man’s arm or leg and then saying, ‘Let it be as it is.’” nytimes.com/2025/02/14/wor…

.Heathrow Airport hi. We just landed from Warsaw and there are no buses to get us off the plane. It’s been almost 45 minutes. Could you send buses? Or let us walk? Or give us an ETA of buses?
