If this law is still in effect when the convention happens, we will be working with the CVB to include a list in our restaurant and attraction guide of trans-friendly businesses (which we're hoping will be all of them). (3/3)

We mourn the passing of Apollo 11 astronaut Michael Collins, who piloted humanity’s first voyage to the surface of another world. An advocate for exploration, @AstroMCollins inspired generations and his legacy propels us further into the cosmos: https://t.co/47by569R56

@prkaye Due to an accident with a time machine, Earth was briefly sent into an alternate timeline in which Memphis did not exist.

We appreciate the assistance of parallel universe specialists from @SidewiseAward in returning history to its correct course.
