Eliza sounds amazing I’ll look her up

Elza? Oh she is great <3 I really recommend the songs Mulher do Fim do Mundo ( The Woman of the World's End)

"my crying is nothing but carnaval

is samba's tears in the tip toes

the crowd goes ahead like a gale

throws me into a avenue that I don't which is...

Pirate and Superman singing the heat

A yellow fish kisses my hand...

An angel wings in the floor

in the rain of confetti i leave my pain...

In the avenue I left there

The Black skin and my voice

In the avenue I left there

my speak, my opinion

my house, my solitute

I threw it from the top of the third floor

I broke my face (note from the tumblr owner* also this can means: I got let down) and got rid of the rest of my life

in the avenue endures till the end

woman of the world's end

I am, I am going to sing

until the end

to sing

She was a BIG survivor of the most big fucking tragedies of life. And she is a huge star. HUGE star. Long Live Elza Soares. ( I recommend her last albuns...That she made when she was like 80s to 90s ((!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)))))))))))

Not to be too emotional on the first day of the year, but fuck, watching the people's expectations for Lula's new government... The love and hope on their voices, I'm tearing up a little, you guys. We deserve it so much. We deserve the love and hope and care he's bringing with him after those nefarious years since Dilma's impeachment.

POA é muito úmida no inverno, é uma desgraça. De escorrer água pelas paredes, literalmente! De embaçar os espelhos, chão ficar pegajoso e porta inchar e ficar arranhando o chão.

Já fui pra Porto Alegre no inverno e lembro de odiar o espelho do banheiro do hotel sempre embaçado. Não tava tão frio quando eu fui, mas realmente o clima é bem úmido.

Hi there! Do you know if there are good movies about the independence of brazil? I just saw your gifset and i thought thats a very interesting and underrated bit of history :D

Hii, there aren't many Brazilian historical films tbh. The edit I posted was about the telenovela Novo Mundo (that I like a lot) but unfortunately there are no subtitles for it :/.

I found these movies about the independence period, the antecedents or the people involved in it: "Independência ou Morte/Independence or Death" (1972, drama, romance), "Carlota Joaquina, Princesa do Brazil/Carlota Joaquina, Princess of Brazil" (1995, satire, historical fiction), "A Viagem de Pedro/Pedro, Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea" (2021, drama), "Dona Leopoldina: Da Áustria para o Trono do Brasil" (2018, documentary, no subs), "A Independência do Brasil narrada pelos arquivos" (2022, documentary, no subs), "Brasil Imperial/Brazilian Empire" (2020, tv series, historical fiction) and "Independências" (2022 tv series, no subs, it just started airing).

Some of these I have never watched and some I watched a loong time ago so I can't say if they are any good lol. Maybe reviews would be helpful? Thanks for the ask! :)

I translate "non sequitur" as "o que tem o cu com as calças?" which is a brazilian expression that literally means "what does the ass has to do with the pants?"

GET TO KNOW BRAZIL [7/?]

September 7th, 1822: Independence

Near the margins of the Ipiranga river, on September 7th, 1822, Dom Pedro I (endorsing Leopoldina’s decision!) declared Brazil officially separated from Portugal.

The portuguese royal family “fled” to Brazil in 1807, arriving in Rio de Janeiro in 1808. The king, then, João VI, did not break his promises to England and sailed to the colony in order to maintain commercial deals with the country. Although many painted him as a coward, João didn’t make any hurried decisions: the plan already existed long before and Napoleon himself described him as the only one who could fool him because of such plan.

In 1815, in favour of the so called “European balance” that the Congress of Vienna dreamed of achieving, João’s return to Portugal was demanded, but he had already fallen for Brazil’s tropical enchantments. As an excuse to stay a little longer, João elevated Brazil’s situation from colony to United Kingdom (to Portugal and Algarves), but the portuguese were not at all satisfied with that.

In 1820, there was a liberal revolution in Portugal and Dom João had no alternative but to return in 1821. Before he left, he turned to his elder son, Pedro, and told him that if he were to lose the throne of Brazil, he would rather lose it to his son and heir, Pedro.

Although this revolution had “liberal” in it’s name, many Brazilians who supported it and tried to participate were shocked to find out that the portuguese wanted Brazil to return to it’s former status of colony. As soon as Dom João arrived, they made him sign a Constitution before he even left the ship and they soon began demanding Pedro’s return as well. But Pedro remembered his father’s words and insisted he would stay. As the portuguese cortes became more authoritarian, his wife, the Habsburg princess Leopoldina, who was interim regent during Pedro’s absence, and José Bonifácio prepared and signed the project of independence on September 2nd.

On September 7th, 1822, while travelling to São Paulo and facing an illness, prince Dom Pedro received a letter from the princess, telling him that the situation had become unbearable for Portugal was threatening and humiliating him. She strongly recommended that he stayed and declared the independence.

He was tormented with doubts, but Leopoldina was absolutely sure that the Brazilian people desired the independence.

For many years, the role of the first Empress in this historical event was ignored, but fortunately, today, we celebrate both Dom Pedro and the glorious Leopoldina.

I’ve came to the conclusion that June is the best month to be Brazilian because we celebrate both LGBT+ pride and Festa Junina here

Brazilian random thing of the day: On the northeast, where I'm from, we have an expression called give a smell - "Dar um cheiro" - which means the first time I see you, I might actually hug you fondly, smell you and then placing a kiss on your cheek.

This is not for everybody (I mean, the hug and kiss might be), but it's quite common if you wanna show proper affection.
