Quite a view this afternoon

The last jury I served on was for a guy in his early 20’s that got choked unconscious by an off duty cop for filming with his phone after the cop chased him down for miles and they charged him with assaulting a police officer while he was in a carotid hold and going in and out of consciousness.

At least I got to see who won top chef

So the next Xbox is a gaming PC?

You people don’t appreciate me

The letters NIH sent canceling grants involving trans people will weigh on public health and research forever. There's nothing that can be done to rectify the government saying, "this research is wasteful because the people it helps don't exist, and if they do exist, then they shouldn't."

This is great new but the NIH has halted just about all awards for continuing grants that weren’t terminated so I’m not holding my breath about cancelled grants actually coming back.

Today's newsletter is one of the few places where you'll read about Clayton Kershaw defacing his Pride Day cap with a bible verse widely used by homophobes to discredit the LGBTQ+ community. Imagine if it was someone doing that to an American flag cap logo. www.cupofcoffeenews.com/cup-of-coffe...
