The guy Zohran was running against resigned in disgrace because he faced over a dozed accusations of sexual assault.

And a guy who got shot in the back of a yellow taxi cab by a member of the Gambino Crime Family.

he also lives with 17 cats and i think this is more extraordinary than his brush with death.

There's being a crazy cat person, and then there's hoarding cats. It definitely depends on the size of your home and your capacity to care for them, but 17 is certainly not a small number of cats for one person to be responsible for.

They're actually bodyguards to protect him from the Gambino Crime Family. gunpointcat-confusedgunpoint-alt

I thought Spymaster Mittens was just a silly Crusader Kings joke...

Although considering how often organized crime is referred to as rats and pests, cats might make better protection than some folks would assume!

[-] ConcreteHalloween@hexbear.net 5 points 5 months ago

Well he has all those cats because the scent of a cat can cause a female rat to abort all it's fetuses! (an actual thing he talked about in an interview about his cats)

[-] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 6 points 5 months ago

he's so awesome catgirl-heart

IIRC he took the sexual assault allegations in stride, it was hiding the number of deaths at senior facilities that made him resign.

[-] ClimateStalin@hexbear.net 8 points 5 months ago

To my memory you have it backwards, somehow the nursing home deaths did nothing and then the SA allegations came out and he stepped down

I remember saying at the time “Really? Like, yeah that’s bad, but he killed hundreds to thousands of people!”

[-] GoodGuyWithACat@hexbear.net 4 points 5 months ago

Oh really? gulag either way.

[-] cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 5 months ago

Exactly! He was qualified!

How many does mamdani have!? Does he even know how to make a woman prodoundly uncomfortable? Does he have the stomach for rape?

we don't know, and he's going to take office totally untested. How can we possibly trust someone like that?
