In an insane exchange during an interview with the BBC, UK Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch was repeatedly attacked for not having watched Netflix’s fictional “Adolescence” series about toxic masculinity, all while she was trying to draw attention to the real victimization of UK girls by grooming gangs.

A Black Lives Matter leader who wanted the cops abolished has now been shot in the head. The incident happened in London, where guns are more rare than in the United States.

Today marks a milestone in the history of Call Me Stormy. We have now published 10,000 posts.
Actually 9,998 posts as of today, while hitting 10,000 tomorrow.
To celebrate, we present the five most popular posts in the history of our blog, which we launched back in 2012. We always present hard-hitting political posts, but guess what? None of the most popular pieces we have run involve politics. Instead, they cover a stranger melange of topics: sex, pets, an anal examination, bizarre creatures and subway gangs.
Without further ado, here are the top five.
No. 1 from Sep. 2, 2012
