Good morning —

Today's puzzle draws from the week's headlines across politics, international affairs, business, and a few darker corners of the news cycle—the kind of stories that tend to pile up without much notice. It's a gentle way to touch base with what's been happening while you sip your coffee, taking just a few minutes to connect some dots without the scrolling fatigue. There's something grounding about solving these little snapshots of the moment, rather than chasing headlines down the endless feed.
