Dear Prudence

I bought an iPhone SE Sunday. Sticking with the 6's form factor, avoiding the phablet for as long as I can. It is, compared to the 6, screaming fast, with a remarkably better camera and display. It lacks the 3.5mm headphone jack, so there's one small piece of technology that'll live with the iMac from now on. Just need to get a case for it, and I'll try that when I go out for a small resupply run in a few hours.
No formal word yet on the grand jury decision, but just about everyone's money is on no charges being filed in Breonna Taylor's killing. The city closed a batch of downtown intersections last night and this morning and forbade on-street parking in a roughly 25-block area. Jersey barriers, dump trucks, chain-link fence, all of it. The tower was emptier than whatever is passing for normal today; I think our 11AM head count saw 31 tenants total. People were being a little smart, I guess. Kentucky Trial Court Review predicts the announcement tomorrow afternoon, based on comments from some of the group's attorney members. If so, that'll make for plenty of trouble. Our contingencies are in place, and I don't really expect any violence to come our way - it'll go southwest of our building, based on previous behavior.
Sunday afternoon's DCC game was a hell of a lot of fun. Three players, so a dozen 0-level characters, and we saw, I think, five deaths. It's been years since I gamed with Steve, and never with Josh, and to be honest, it was good to just shoot the breeze with them for a while. We're going to do it again next month, maybe DCC maybe not.
