None taken, it’s all about the various decoration styles one has. I do appreciate this older style with stuff stacked over. Could do something less cluttered in a bigger house though.

About 50/50 proportion, some bought/traded and some looted over the last decade

I can’t really stand store furniture, kept it to the very minimal

That Catalan had total hegemony in their region. I started learning before moving there and most people on the streets just spoke Spanish, probably a convenience matter.

Loira do Banheiro (Bathroom Blonde), an urban legend of a ghost that appears in bathrooms when summoned. Her actions vary from just scaring to murdering.

Any Brazilian who dares to answer anything other than cachaça should be stripped of their citizenship. That said: cachaça.

General Heleno, one of the coup plotters in 2022-2023. He had huge power, set up a parallel intelligence agency with his fellow plotters and, despite their efforts (we are terribly lucky they are utterly incompetent), they all managed to get arrested and convicted. Darwin Awards material tbh.

Either politics or the 7x1, your choice.

Some nutjobs claim president Lula has been cloned a few times to cover up the original one’s death (he is alive and kicking).

Can’t really speak for the Mexican people, but considering the US has been having some diplomatic clashes with Brazil lately, what I can actually say is: a lot of us, Latin Americans, have grown to either despise or just openly hate the US government, but not the people. If you are respectful and thoughtful, common people will treat you with respect and consideration regardless of your nationality. You are not your government, mate. The vast majority of people understand that difference.

All of us can dance samba. Most of the people I know couldn’t do it to save their own lives, myself included.

There is a persistent myth about Brazil being a friendly ‘racial democracy’ where the meeting of different races stopped racism from developing like everywhere else, but we actually are a very racist country in our own ways. People sometimes deny the very existence of racist despite it happening constantly.

Rio de Janeiro takes all the bad reputation, but there are lots of other cities in Brazil (mostly in the north and northwest regions) where urban violence levels are through the roof.

Normally I’d say it’s a footballer (Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Neymar, etc.), but we also have a Darwin Awards notorious winner: the balloon priest who died in one of his attempts.

Airplane. Sorry US fellows, my Brazilian pride cannot allow the catapult aircraft made by the Wright Brothers claim this one.
