To the legislators that read this: You were elected to represent the people of Tennessee, not to make life-altering policy based on false statements and a narrative that falls apart under scrutiny. Matthew Davenport’s death was tragic, but the toxicology does not back the public claim being used to sell this bill. And Tennessee voters can see it. They are watching elected officials move on a false narrative instead of hard facts. Tennessee is being asked to criminalize nearly half a million consumers and forfeit millions in tax revenue — based on a case that was never a natural kratom leaf death.

Does anyone know if gibsons donuts really uses pork lard to fry their donuts?

Please do the right thing and dm me if you’re the one who smashed my car at 11pm 4/10 with your big truck. I just got it two weeks ago so thank you so much for that. I have footage from the security cameras and will be going to ask other businesses tomorrow morning for more footage. Be a decent person and let’s work this out. Or if you know who it was let me know. It was a group of 5/6 30 year olds who only hung out there for an hour or so.

Hey guys, I wrote a history page about X-Site, the arcade center in the 1990s. My website mainly focuses on animatronics so I heavily focused on those in the article, but always try and include whatever I can about the establishment. It’s wild they had a McDonald’s that served pizza?! One of the main things I’m hoping to track down is where the animatronics went after they were auctioned off in the late 1990s. If anyone has any idea where they may have ended up just shoot me a message or comment. Or just if you’d like to share any info about the location in general.

Going Sunday and my 20 year old son and myself are super excited about the wax molds. I've been telling him about them since he's been alive. We actually found some of these machines in the museum in Chicago, but they were dinosaurs. Does anybody know if these are still out and working?

What’re yall doing for dinner tonight? It’s a beautiful Friday afternoon. Should cook but might end up taking the fam somewhere. Anyone got a good kid friendly recommendation?

I had to send my cat over the rainbow bridge last night. I know this may sound like a crazy or morbid ask, and it may just be the grief talking, but I'd really like to find someone that would be able to remove and taxidermy one of his front paws (like a rabbit's foot) for me before he's taken to get cremated.

I've contacted 2 places: one said they don't do pets and the other hasn't responded yet. If anyone has any other contacts or referrals, I'll take whatever info you have.

All in title.

I am new in Memphis and looking for a room for rent.

Starting to see word that someone is looking for signatures. Insight? We were overcharged $300 for gas last year when all gas appliances were turned off. MLGW has refused to address the issue.

What are some popular and/or unpopular spots to go fishing near the Memphis area?
