MEMernet: #SlowDownMemphis, Joni Mitchell, and TikTok Gold

Memphis on the internet.

#Slowdownmemphis

State, county, and city law enforcement officials are cracking down on speeding, drag racing, and reckless driving with a “Slow Down Memphis” campaign. Larry Veasley did not slow down over the weekend. So, Memphis Police Department (MPD) tweeted his mugshot and a photo of his Dodge Charger being towed to the city impound lot with the hashtag #slowdownmemphis.

So far this year, 128 have died in car crashes. That’s twice the number of crash deaths in all of 2019.

Describing the meme in print sounds like a cinnamon roll but could actually kill you.
