Memphis on the internet.

A TikTok video — viewed 5.3 million times at press time — allegedly shows a Germantown Baptist Church leader refusing to help a mother to get a can of formula to feed her baby.
The call is part of a social experiment by Nikalie Monroe, a TikTok creator with more than 374,000 followers whose bio reads “testing your church to see if they would feed a hungry baby.”
In the Germantown Baptist Church video, the creator apparently reaches an unnamed pastor. She asks if they are able to help her feed her imaginary baby.
“We are not,” the person on the phone said in the video. “We have a benevolence program, but it is for our members.”
Ja
Ja Morant said he lost his joy playing for the Grizzlies amid a shooting slump and suspension last week. This brought an onslaught of YouTube videos titled, “The Ja Morant Situation Just Got Weird Again …,” “Ja Morant Has Become A Major Problem For The Memphis Grizzlies And It Is Time To Move On,” and “The Memphis Grizzlies Failed Ja Morant.”
Creepy
Central Gardens neighbor Phil Roebuck thought a 7 p.m. ice cream truck was “a little creepy” last week.
