MEMernet: Trail Riding, ‘Radical’ Rage, Dust in the Wind

Memphis on the internet.

Trail Riding

Boots, hats, four wheelers, food, drink, line dancing, and more brought hundreds to the Byhalia Trail Ride event over the weekend. It looked “like good, pure, country fun,” as knatalya_ described it.

“Radical” Rage

Posted to X by @toddstarnes

Newsmax host Todd Starnes claimed a “radical leftist exploded in rage,” “lunged at me,” and threw his phone on the ground when he and state Senator Brent Taylor visited protestors at the Bartlett Tesla dealership this weekend. 

“These people are insane,” he tweeted. 

While he was here, two rappers were shot Downtown. To which, Starnes opined that “we need President Trump to stage an intervention in this city.” No thank you.

Dust In the Wind

Posted to Facebook by the Damn Weather of Memphis

The U.S. National Weather Service of Memphis issued its first ever Blowing Dust Warning last week. The Damn Weather of Memphis posted a satirical, AI-generated image of what it looked like. More simply, though, Judith Johnson just commented, “shit.”

MEMernet: The Thaw, Mazda Flight, Who to Follow

Memphis on the internet.

The thaw!

The Damn Weather of Memphis (DWM) kept Facebook folks entertained and, maybe, informed during the Big Winter Storm we’ve all probably forgotten about already. Wrapping up its coverage, DWM gave it a “1.74 on The Holy Shitdamn Scale, a 0-5 scale that ranks the intensity, impact, and horrific-ness of Memphis based weather related events.”

Mazda Flight

Cheyenne Cartwright’s security camera caught amazing footage last week of a Mazda 2 jumping the train tracks near Southern and Greer and crashing.

Yes, the driver was fine. No, the screenshot above does not do it justice. Go find the video.
