Last night I made a Turkish spiral pie / borek in 12 easy steps Today I learnt that all 12 steps are actually Hamas Thanks for the heads-up, Bibi

Massive argument on my train in Melbourne. White Nationalists shit-talking, blaming migrants for every problem. Muslim girl asked “So are immigrants the reason you’re fat?” Hilarity ensued.
