Dias de luta, dias de glória! Very happy to announce that my article with @DrTVLotz is finally out on New Media & Society! Check it out! journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…
Portuguese woman complaining that Brazilians (or, as she claims "this shitty race") are "invading Portugal". It would be comic if it wasn't tragic.
Ninguém me perguntou, mas acho mt interessante então resolvi compartilhar. Coisas q a gnt fala inglês no BR, mas q se fala diferente na AUS
🇧🇷"outdoor" = 🇦🇺 "billboard"
🇧🇷"home office" = 🇦🇺 "working from home (ou WFH)"
🇧🇷"open house" = 🇦🇺 "house warming"
Complements for each answer:
"very guilty - everyone is working but me!!"
"kind of guilty - I should be doing what everyone else is doing"
"not at all - my free time is my leisure time"
"Not working? What's that? - I didn't know people didn't work on weekends"
Second Influenza of THE MONTH. Take care, everyone, the bugs are everywhere, and they are not nice 🤧🤒
It must be the 4th or 5th time that this happens to me since I started to live in a “developed country”. The 4th or 5th time that a stranger comes to me asking “where are you from?” followed by “you’re being too loud”. (+)
And all the times that this has happened the feeling is the same: I’m feeling super happy and suddenly I’m reminded that I’m unwelcome, that it does’t matter if I have an aus passport, I just don’t belong here, I shouldn’t be like I am if I want to be here. I’m just tired.
Studying the content on Race & Digital Media for this week’s lecture and the automatic feeling of race crisis in being extremely white in Brazil and not being white at all in Australia, at the same time that I move through Brazilian and Australia contexts daily 🫠
Brazilians (or non-English speakers) need to stop saying "sorry" when we don't understand/know how to say something in English. You should rather say "thank you for repeating/understanding me". We shouldn't feel guilty for not perfectly speaking/understanding English
Me desculpem, mas eu NUNCA verei o doc da boate kiss, só de ler tweets sobre me dá gatilhos. Eu lembro exatamente onde eu tava, o q eu tava fazendo, e os diálogos que tive naquele dia. O sentimento de tristeza profunda é inesquecível e querer reviver isso, pra mim, é loucura
36 without my parents bags and without an answer from @Qantas. We just want our things back.
What a day to celebrate becoming a Doctor 🤓
Again and again thank you @jeanburgess and @SDCunningham for everything! So happy to have my family with me today too!
