Pride Month Fact 4
A Ópera do malandro (The Scoundrel's Opera) is a 1978 musical play by Chico Buarque (considered to be one of the greatest artists in modern Brazilian history).
It features a trans sex worker (Geni) despite being written during a brutal right-wing military dictatorship* with a censorship board so strict that my mom remembers having to perform her school plays to them as a child.
How did Geni being trans get past the censorship board?
Chico Buarque, who had made getting protest material past censorship into a veritable art form, left that teeny tiny detail out of the script.
There's nothing in the script that suggests Geni is trans, you only find out she's transgender if you watch the play.
^ Geni in the film adaptation of the play
* A puppet dictatorship put in place by the US
#pure genius#when i was a kid my uncle used to listen to the album all the time#i never new Geni was trans until I searched for the play online when i was already an adult#this should be more widespread information#pride month

Pls tell me someone saved this video before the Pokemon Company deleted from TikTok... I saw in the morning, sent my friends, but less than 10min later it was already down! They freaking posted them dancing to Bruno Mars "Bonde do Brunão" and the lyrics are NOT PG in portuguese. That video needs to be found!!

Losing my mind at this poor girl in Argentina who found a kitten on the side of the road and adopted it only to find out it was a freaking jaguarundi. Look at that fucking thing. That's a whole ass kiddy cat

I thinks is funny people are NOW complaining about Nintendo Game prices. As a Brazilian, that love Nintendo, I haven't bought a came in 3 years. And before that, I had a rule of 1-2 games a year, because that all I could afford. Their games, and all AAA games if that matters, have completely lost the hand at princing YEARS ago... But people are only noticing now, because the economy finally crashed around them.
