you know what to do, MEM

Seriously, my aunts rushing back from visiting her grandkids in Colorado cause something went wrong with mail-in and the great state of Bama doenst believe in early voting, so take advantage of a state that is actually more progressive than you would expect. I’ve truthfully taken it for granted all my life until she said that and it made me realize time was almost up on Thursday for early voting, so showing my age, I will pull out the MTV: Rock The Vote….

Well I wanted to edit it 2 real people vote early rather than men and women to include all, but I don’t usually post and it seems you can’t change that part…don’t hate on me. I’ve a niece I love who is gender neutral, she respects that it’s hard for her uncles 2 remember but still respect all!!!

Hello this is random but I just voted for the first time and it was such an easy process. Go vote, and tell your friends and family to do so as well! Your vote matters! :)

He straight up admitted to sending unsolicited dick pics at 53 years old. Won't debate Pearson but, he'll talk about inflation issues that he's avoided now with this being in the news.

This guy is a dirtbag, one of the most unserious people to ever want to represent the people of this city.

My fiancé is 61 and looking for a job. He has been out of work for 17 months (did work for 3 months during that time in a temporary job). He has applied EVERYWHERE and nothing. He is willing to do anything. He did have a stroke 9 years ago and has limited use of his left arm. Can anyone help with places that hire older people?

I found an old post about her but it's about four years old. Just curious.

New data shows double-digit increases in several crime categories in Memphis during the first three weeks of October, as the Memphis Safe Task Force marked its one-year anniversary in the city.

PSA to the community that is looking for POTS related care or has ever had a workup to rule out POTS. They directly tell you that they don’t see people with POTS / dysautonomia. Fair enough.

However, even if you aren’t diagnosed and that is even a possible differential diagnosis in your work up they will not see you. Even if that has been ruled out they will not see you. Even if you need to see a neurologist for something completely unrelated, they will not see you.

If POTS or any form of dysautonomia has ever been anywhere in your medical chart, they will not see you.

Don’t waste your time.

I have been on 7oh for a long while and kratom before that. Which is embarrassing because I already kicked an opioid addiction years ago using a suboxone program. I don’t think I can do this unassisted. I need to be able to function for a lot of different reasons. I can’t do a detox program or anything that requires overnights. I want to get into an affordable suboxone program (probably not methadone if they still require you to show up every morning). I’m having some difficulty finding one in east Memphis. I’m looking for something affordable, and ideally I would not want to use my insurance as it’s through my soon to be ex husband and I would rather keep this private. If insurance needs to be used though, then that’s ok…it just makes me nervous. I’m a normal pretty boring lady who just happened to self medicate herself into dependence again after many many years of being off of actual opiates. I’ve tried to go cold turkey and just can’t function the way I need to as a single mom or in the workplace. Now with the ban, I have pretty much run out. I worry that if I go into withdrawal that I will not be able to function the way I need to as a mom and would end up missing work or possibly even losing my job when things are already tight as it is. What is the best place to go in east Memphis? One of them said they required a detox in person for up to four days and the other that I talked to was completely online and just seems odd to me and won’t give me any kind of pricing so far. I am running out and have tried to delay each dose as long as possible but I really am struggling and do not think I will be able to do this without MAT. I know I have been able to use MAT as it’s intended prior and how helpful it was. I didn’t think I’d find myself in this spot again, especially not with something that I could buy at the gas station, but here I am. The last time I went through this was over a decade ago in a completely different part of the country so I am in uncharted territory (and also on a budget). Does anyone else have experience with this? public or private comments/messages are both welcomed. (Please be kind 😬)

I’m looking to get a breast reduction. I have Tricare and my options are Devra Becker, Robin Evans, Sonia Alvarez, Nicholas Leonardi.

Thoughts?
Any others you know of that I missed?

Thanks!

Is there anywhere in/near Memphis treating dysautonomia for a 22yo female?

How is everyone meeting their significant other around here? I’m a 28yo BW, no kids, good job. I go out and do karaoke, sit at bars, go to social events solo & with groups & yet I’ve had no luck. I know Memphis dating scene can be wobbly but I’m honestly confused. I’ve tried the dating apps. I’ve asked my friends & family to look out for me also. I’m tired of being the only one in my friend group with no one especially with the holidays coming up. I also feel like I’m ready for MY person. And lastly yes I’ve tried outside of Memphis.

Anyone want to hang out Saturday morning and grab a coffee at Baaloo? I put together a group event on meetup if anyone is interested. 😁

Suggest some Halloween Parties on Halloween Weekend in and around the city.

I'd also appreciate it if someone had some unique, niche options in mind.

A few days ago, someone posted my coworker's car. There is more to it since they got the back of it! They moved the skeleton to the inside though.

Anyone know where they still have some pumpkins? The stand near oak court mall didn’t have a great selection. Home Depot had small ones. Target was sold out. Can I still find a good one?

Was looking for the best/scariest haunted house recommendations in the area?!?!

Thx

Brooks Museum is permanently closed now. Is the building being used as an event space? I would love to attend this concert but I’m concerned it’s a scam. Does anyone know?

I've heard it's a mixed bag, and we're not from here originally. Are there good subdivisions? We're just looking for a place to rent outside of memphis. Germantown is too expensive for us.
