Gosh, why are people leaving New York City in droves? Well, one can never be certain, but it seems like economics might figure in. And crime, let's not forget crime. Racial tension is a thing, and what about widespread TDS/woke mind virus/still masking/Israel-Palestine-Ukraine-Russia bloodlines and sympathies, all boiling under the facade of billion of social interactions.
In other words, America. In still other words, a lot more Americans packed in tight together than anywhere else in, well...America.
NEW YORK CITY, WAKE THE HELL UP!!

It’s time to vote Hochul & Adams OUT! pic.twitter.com/VahGGXUhdC
So yeah, folks are pulling up, taking real estate and salary losses, basically cutting the cord to the parent city that once told us fairy tales on the reg.
One was about a comedian named Jerry and his goofball friends, Oh, the laffs! Another was a romantic pastiche about four women making their way near the Big White Way in late singlehood, dating up a storm in the Big Apple.
AND--never forget Chandler, Monica, Joey, Phoebe, Ross, and Rachel! What a gas! Those umbrellas were so droll.
Oh, and Mad About You. I mean, you know, not the same energy, but same era, NYC, yada yada.
Those were the days. Sustained conservative-to-moderate mayoralty, diversity still maintaining the facade of strength, limited mass shootings.
NEW: New York Governor Kathy Hochul has officially banned retail pet stores from selling dogs, cats, and rabbits

The statewide ban is now in effect
Hundreds of stores will close and employees will be without jobs

Then, 9/11. Now fast forward 24 years...and we find...
...plainly bought-off pols. A dumbshow of stunts mirroring the tragedy playing out in the Middle East. The Excelsior State's leaders flapping on the carpet like Bea-Bea's pet fish Emilio in Kill Bill. New York is a state in its near-death throes.
The answer to this malaise is obvious, and Kathy Hochul has grasped that plain truth: close the pet stores. Clearly, the thing to do now is gird our loins and make it harder for the convenience addicts of Gotham to buy a furry companion.

Yes, as of late December, it's illegal to buy a pet at a non-home-operated breeder. Tourists tapping the windows of teacup Maltese pups is a bygone. Impulse companion buys are verboten!
And who knows, maybe for the greater good. Puppy and kitten farms are well-documented horrorshows. Watching impatient city dwellers swabbing canine digestive deposits off the sidewalks that support the feet of millions per day is, well, kinda cringe. All we need is a lab-leaked doggo virus to send us back into lockdown faster than concessions sell in Buffalo's Highmark Stadium (where Gov. Hochul's hubby is the pit boss).
Anyway...
Let's not even mention P-Nut, the squirrel who enraged a demographic of conservative pet rescuers and their allies, pushing president-elect Donald Trump's vote harvest to around 44% in the Empire State.
Hochul's decision to shut down the retailers of puppy farms is, on its face, admirable. The deeper game--trying to paint over the insipid laziness of mismanaging public transport and homelessness--should be politically fatal for the Woman No One Asked For: foot soldier for the corrupt, mafia-wannabe Andrew Cuomo, one Ms. Kathy Hochul, the queen of thick base makeup and cheap antics to distract voters on the pages of legacy broadsheets (and nowhere else).
