Looking to go to the chess club, just wanted to know where to avoid

My girlfriend is a first time adult driver. She's using this app to study for her road skills knowledge test, and the ads are atrocious. The online (tn.gov) practice test sucks because it's the same questions repeated every time, just reshuffled.

What did y'all use to practice for your road skills test?

Hi all! I have family visiting from out of town this weekend and am excited to show them around. I’m newer to the area and would love some recommendations for a Saturday night or earlier in the weekend. This crowd loves live music (we’ve already done Beale with them) and they would be into a rooftop bar kinda vibe. I’m kinda stumped bc we’ve done the whole Beale st thing and local museums.

Is there anything fun or something special happening this weekend that I could bring them to in midtown/ downtown?

Any recs would be greatly appreciated, TIA

It's that time; I need to start looking for a high school. I looked through the posts; nothing about high schools. So I'm looking for a school that is diverse and has a great art program. No private schools, I can't afford it. Help me out people.

Memphis Is Under Siege.

Republicans have unleashed
hate and racism in their quest
for power, not through elections
but by fear and intimidation.
Soon enough this same hate will
be at your door. No Republican
you elect will stand in their way.,

Tasty! With a Memphis touch
of smoke and hint of heat.

Hello! I have a dog(not really)
He’s a cool dude chill asf and I would love to keep him since he gets along so well with my cats and resident dog

HOWEVER he has some issue going on with his skin. His back blisters up pretty bad and he’s always trying to chew at it. Weve been bathing him every other day woth recommended vet shampoo but it’s not helping and we don’t have the spare funds to take him into another vet
(Before y’all try to dog me about being poor with pets. We did not seek out another dog. A crackhead threw him In my car while I was stopped at a red light.)

Ive considered surrendering him. But hes skittish and a pit breed and ik mas has a pretty rough turn overrate. Hes also estimated to be about 3 years old and most people don’t adopt older dogs.

Is there any organizations that can help woth this?
Mhs won’t do actual vet help only neutering
And mas won’t do anything unless I surrender him but have already said medical help womt be an option until hes adopted.

EDIT FOR MOST FREQUENT QUESTIONS: 1. He is on nexguard flea/tick/heart worm roughly about 3 months now so we don’t think it’s fleas (on top of baths) and Benadryl
2. He has very limited outside time and onesies (and a cone) to prevent as much nawing as possible but the skin itself forms these weird dry rash looking patches
3. He is housed with the other animals just not allowed direct contact or share bowls, but since we’ve had him and he’s been showing these symptoms the other pets have not seemed to attract it so it’s not contagious.

Anyone know if any of the kiosks are working? The one at Germantown’s camera is messed up and won’t take a clear picture. I need to replace all my vital docs, and I don’t have another proof of identity to go in person, but my license is good, so I should be able to get that from a kiosk, hopefully, and then get the others.

Now, I already know p b and j are as bad as it gets. Soooo my car was destroyed by the storm last weekend. A tree fell onto my parked car at my apartment complex, The Residence at Lakeview. The apartment is denying any responsibility, I only had liability on it so not a cent from insurance. My only choice was to sell it for junk. I only had that car for a month. I had called several tow companies who were just busy or didn't want to pick it up because of a lost title.

I FINALLY get a company (pebble) to agree and schedule a pick up. Of course they were running late, so I had to cancel for work. My apartment took it upon themselves to call p b and j towing which happens to be partnered with pebble. So that company had agreed to pay me $220 for the car, but took it for free while I was at work. Now, I really dont want to bring a lawyer into this, but I believe I'm owed something from someone. Has anyone threatened to sue p b and j and did it work? Should I threaten to sue the apartment? Im not asking for handouts, but this really puts me in a tight situation and late on rent.

Me and my girlfriend are going to be in Memphis a couple days this week to visit some museums and I was hoping to find some good restaurants/chill bars to visit she loves live music especially blues and bluegrass as well as board games and books but the most important thing is the food is really appreciate any recommendations yall have

I'm gonna be visiting my boyfriend in Memphis soon and have never been. There's a lot of places like this where I'm from (California) and have been looking to see if there's anything similar for when I visit. Looking for anything with a cute/girly aesthetic to check out, could be a shop or place to eat or really anything. I would love some recommendations :)

multiple shops in the desoto area have told me to look at memphis shops for wiring problems but i’m seeing mixed reviews online…. does anybody know a good shop in the area?

So, I get that there's now a dumbass $1.50 charge for using a card to pay the bill. And I'd rather pay that than set up an ACH payment and cross my fingers for three days that it goes through.

But I paid the folks today (way more than deserved) and almost immediately received this email. It stated that the $1.50 fee was failed. Not the whole ass other bill. So, I'm not sure what to do. Did I pay my bill or not? Is the payment processor denying my payment b/c they couldn't get their chump change? I really don't get it.

I'd rather not spend three hours on hold with em tomorrow on company time. But I will.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what do? Fuck em?

What dmv is best to be at at open? I need to renew and i guess take a new Pic or something so I have to go in. I dont mind driving as long as I'm not waiting there. Also i need any mail with address?

Any local or national credit unions/banks that offer $0-down & No PMI mortgages? (Not VA loan)

My current credit union is the only one i've found who does, but wanting to see if their rate can be beat at all.

A key piece of the funding to keep the Grizz in town has been finalized: MLGW will continue to pay $2.5M a year.

Council questioned if they should be paying more.

What would be your top five grocery stores in Memphis?

I just dropped into the newly opened Stomping Grounds on Central (formerly Railgarten) and was very impressed with the place. I’ve got a young child so this was the perfect place for the kiddo to play while us parents got to chill and eat some lunch. We didn’t order any drinks but I like that they’ve got the self service taps and we’ll definitely will be back another time to enjoy that aspect of it too.

This summer when we travelled to a big city, we kept looking for a place like this where one of us could use the WiFi to get some work done and our kid could still stay occupied and have a good time. Stomping Grounds is the exact kind of space we were hoping to find. I encourage you to check it out and support a new local business. Even if you don’t have kids, it would be great place to meet up with your friends that do to coax them to get out of the house more.

The pictures I saw beforehand don’t do it justice either: it’s bright and colorful and open inside. All the kids I saw there today were loving it along with their relaxed looking parents. The staff were super friendly and stayed busy between supervising and playing with kids and wiping down and disinfecting the equipment. All the toys and play stuff seemed brand new and clean too and the whole place just has good vibes. Go check it out :)

I saw the same doctor for years, but he retired last year. He was great. They moved me over to another doctor who I didn’t like at all. I’d like to find a new urologist. A male. And not at Conrad Pearson. Anyone have anyone they really like?

Happy 901 day folks! Uaino mayne xoxo

For me- I love Grizz games, Overton Shell (live music in general), La Michoacana planetas, and Trolley Nights!

"Repairs are nearing completion at the Mud Island Amphitheater as they work on lunch list items to bring it up to ADA standards! New stage coating, concrete repairs, new hand rails and much more!"

Saw this on a page called "Bring Back the Music: Mud Island Amphitheater" on FB. I had ZERO idea anyone was doing anything to refurb the place. They have a website (SaveTheAmphitheater.com) which I checked, but it pretty much is for merch sales and soliciting donations, not much news.

These photos are a few of my absolute favorites from the past year. Consider them my tribute to Memphis: the iconic landmarks, the grit, the beauty, and most importantly, the people who make this city move.

Has anyone done free Tuesday at the zoo lately? I haven't gone in about a decade and it was nuts on Tuesdays then, but it looks like they've changed it so it won't be so crowded.
