THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED.
You will not be able to stay home, brother. You will not be able to plug in, turn on and cop out. You will not be able to lose yourself on skag and skip out for beer during commercials, Because the revolution will not be televised. The revolution will not be televised. The revolution will … Continue reading
Geni no país das Maravilhas.
Ontem eu pedi aos meus amigos do Facebook para que por favor alguém me explicasse, mas de maneira educada por favor, por quê essa aversão toda à Dilma. Eu perguntei porque eu acho que é minha obrigação, como uma pessoa que não mora mais no Brasil, e principalmente como um que se auto-entitula politico, saber … Continue reading
We’re SO OVER Marisa Monte.

ffw mag vs. ex-Menudo.
In Brazils there is a local magazine which must be really important because it is more expensive than a foreign vogue in Europe. Anyway this month’s cover shows this lady in a glitter face, and I was, hum, that looks familiar. Where did I see that? … In the Latin Music channel, that’s where! This … Continue reading
A Joke.
There were a Brazilian, an Austrian, a top-model, a carnival pop-singer and a wizard. And they have chosen the official logo for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Laughing already? “The power set: five influential Brazilians” “IndigNation” “Designer critica logo da Copa 2014: ‘É uma porcaria’ “ Continue reading
Orçamento folgado…
Last week, Sky have released their new campaign in Brazil, for the World Cup. It shows Gisele Bündchen scolding Pelé and Romario for missing two goals in previous World Cups. I’ve found it a little awkward. To begin with, why is she that angry? What’s with all the yelling? Aren’t we supposed to be more … Continue reading
Reciprocidade.
Aos amigos católicos e-praticantes, Eu não fico mandando corrente ateísta por e-mail. Aos que opinam o contrário, Eu não fico mandando piadinha multimídia sobre a classe média neo-nazista brasileira. Isso seria falta de respeito. Seria muito pedir reciprocidade? Continue reading
“Um Beixu Goxxtosu, Brazil.”
A brazilian reporter tells Jennifer Aniston that the first thing she needs to learn in Portuguese is how to send a big sweet kiss to her brazilian fans, or as he translates, a delicious kiss. And then, with some constipated nose and the strongest Rio’s accent EVER, he says: “UM BEIXU GOSXXTOSU BRASIL”. Jennifer Aniston’s … Continue reading
A letter to Michael Moore.
Dear Mr. Moore, This is the first time I leave a message in the website. Always wanted to, but only now I’ve found a really good reason. I’ve found this movie that I didn’t even know about, a 2004 Spanish production (Almodóvar’s) documentary about my country’s social movement called Movimento Sem-Terra (Landless Movement), one of … Continue reading
MARIO TESTINO Rio de Janeiro.
How easier could’ve been to win 2016 Olympics with THAT book in presentation? Click here to look inside. Continue reading
Os pensamentos andam mais polêmicos que de costume esses dias. Quero que fique claro, agora e sempre, que eu sou da opinião de que qualquer assunto deve ser levantado e discutido. Nada deve ser tabu, principalmente numa época como essa, onde nosso moralismo, de fundo judaico-cristão-passivo, está por um fio, tantas foram as provas do … Continue reading
“Estupra, mas não mata.”
O Maluf só não é Hitler porque é mais esperto. Porque o grau de desumanidade dessa frase não só choca como irrita, pelo contexto no qual foi dita. E nós. Nós só não somos monstros porque ninguém é tonto de assumir nada. E porque a gente já sabe o resultado do radicalismo festivo. Gerações passam … Continue reading
Sucos Bárbaros.
Maria Betâmara (tamarind), Maracugil (passion fruit), Galraná Costa (guaraná) e Abacaetano (avocado). These are the flavours of “Sucos Bárbaros”, created by a brazilian design company as a parody of “Doces Bárbaros”, a post-tropicalist group formed by Maria Bethânia, Gilberto Gil, Gal Costa and Caetano Veloso in the 70’s. In the USA, designer Marc Valega has … Continue reading
If you say so.
“Brazilian Baia is a smooth and subtle tea with the romantic aromatic flavours of vanilla, cocoa and coconut, and the experience is one of indulgence. It truly is reminiscent of Brazil, the land of the sensual and exotic lifestyle.“ By the way, the tea’s actually really good. Doesn’t taste like mulatas, but it’s pretty close. Continue reading
A message to Spotify.
Hello, Your radios suck. All of them. Since when jazz + blues + alternative + soul + new wave = julio iglesias + death metal? And sometimes, KARAOKE? Seriously, as soon as I find a better free-replacement for last.fm, I give up on you guys. Continue reading
Assim era em 1833.
Poker face.
New season of American Idol’s Brazilian franchise Ídolos, has a transexual contestant, Lívia Mendonça, from Ceará, northeast of Brazil. Host Rodrigo Faro, who’s been working on TV since like forever, can’t hide his small-minded yuppie dull face when she tells him “she’s not a woman”. I don’t know what pisses me off the most: his … Continue reading
“Pérolas do Orkut”.
Before Facebook, there was Orkut. And even before the world came to know the existence of Orkut, brazilian users had it almost completely dominated, turning out to be today 52% of total Orkut users, followed by India, with 19,31%. But even before some users learned to write, they began to type. Posting photos. Making communities. … Continue reading
