[QUOTE=Nordico;2732920]The use of masks will no longer be mandatory on planes and airports in Brazil, determined by Anvisa (National Health Surveillance Agency) this Wednesday (17). The use of the mask will become only a recommendation.[/QUOTE]Thanks. Now if they would only drop the dumb vaccine requirement.
So I want. I travel a lot and this sounds perfect.
BUT I reside in the UK and it seem you can only register these in the USA and a VPN is a no go has anyone outside USA worried this out. You can buy it no probs but just can't register.

Netflix. Good Morning Veronica / Google Fi.
So, homegirl and I are fucking as always, and it is all good.
Good series out is Good Morning Veronica.
If you like psychopaths, which our friends the hoars often seem to do.
On Google Fi:
The optimal set up is to activate your Google Fi phone inside the USA with a chip AND a eSim.
You can, however, activate the eSim outside the USA through various means, to include at VPN.
I also suggest ordering as many (4 per user) data only SIMS as possible to put in burner phones in Brazil.
I also suggest getting a Brazilian number to use on your NSFW Hoaring in Brazil Whatsapp or Whatsapp Business (Google Pixel phones allow 4 users, each with a whatsapp or whatsapp business, or 8 whatsapp per phone). If you are in need of high security, you might also want to consider taking a pixel phone and installing Graphene OS. That gets into Grey Man kind of areas.

[/QUOTE]My favorite marijuanita and I like to watch episodes of "Trailer Park Boys" & "Ash vs Evil Dead" both in Portuguese with English subtitles on Netflix. It is not exactly great cinema, but they are good for laughs in between sessions, especially after we have had a smoke. She also likes "Better Call Saul" and "Ozark" although those two are heavier stuff. She gets off on the Ruth Langmore character in "Ozark."
Brazil background, source is Dalio's book about geopolitics. Relevant to whether to have kids, buy property in Brazil.

You had this happen to you?

A quite interesting and revealing documentary: [URL]https://www.pbs.org/video/rise-of-the-bolsonaros-kvsybw/[/URL].
A Brazil nationalist, is the key person of interest (POI), in an assassination attempt, on the life of the Vice President of Argentina, Cristina Fernndez de Kirchner.

The gunman was identified as Fernando Andr Sabag Montiel, a 35-year-old street vendor and Brazilian citizen who has lived in Argentina since 1998 and had no criminal record, authorities said. He was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.
The POI, was reported as having Nazi tattoos, but not yet identified with any political affiliations.
Ex-Pres. Lula and Pres. Bozo, better have their flak jackets, ready-to-go! Some bulletproof glass, wouldn't hurt either.

Better call Saul ended pretty good (he defected through a SUNROOF!
Ozark not so much unfortunately although I understand her affinity with the Ruth langmore character.
Something about a curly haired foul mouth trailer park punk really does something for me too.
Lots of great characters on that show but that ending was a real stinker.
I've been practicing my Porto but unfortunately duolingo and Pimsleur don't give you common terms for CIM or BBFS.
Anyone have the list of terms for stuff like that in Portuguese.
Please PM.
Thanks!

Currently, I cannot find the "dirty phrases" booklet, I thought I had. Anyways, I'll check again!
[QUOTE=Bearsi;2739812]Brazilian phrases and words. I've been practicing my Porto ... [/QUOTE]For "dirty phrases", the book, "Dirty Portuguese, Everyday Slang from 'What's up?' to 'F%#k Off!' " might be worth a look.

That said, Caralho is fine. It has a nice ring to it. Caralho! Just can't go wrong, kkkk.
Hey guys, does anyone know how I would go about getting tickets for the Flamenge vs Fluminense game this Sunday? If anyone else is going and wants to meet up let me know too.
