And that hand placement, oof, so desperate and cringe.

Like shocked and surprised there are so many POC 🫢 so threatened, so unsafe by other types of people existing in their homelands. She is in for a culture shock that is for sure!

I have mostly decided to become unbothered by this lady but I am stressed and bored and acting out😂 I cannot believe someone pays her for this nonsense. So much to unpack here, the giant sunglasses indoors, the hideous pockets! And guys you can wear the pieces together or separate!!! Thank goodness she mentioned that or I would have not thought such things possible! WHY WOULD SHE EVEN SAY THAT! Does she think her followers do not know that 🙄

I was heading out the door and skimmed it real quick. I was totally confused. Way above my lazy comprehension Reddit pay grade. No idea what was going on there. I was going to deep dive upon return and it’s gone 🫤 I was looking forward to some possible tea.

I am an ambiguous bi-racial POC to strangers and when I travel internationally people often assume I am whatever they are. When I was in Brazil a native Brazilian spoke to me as if I understood Portuguese. I responded in my rudimentary SoCal Spanish that I did not understand. It was so subconscious and embarrassing. Years later I now have the language to recognize this for the micro aggression that it was. I consider myself to have cultural consciousness and I totally stumbled. I cannot even imagine if she were to wander outside of her pod out of the insulted hospitality sector where English is spoken😬Out in the wild on the streets she would look like the biggest mark for the taking oozing awkward visible discomfort. All while giving her “don’t they know who I am vibe”. Hot mess express coming through 🚂 São Paulo can be an overwhelming city to the worldliest traveler to say the least. She is not even a traveler she is a vacationer.

Why people gotta act crazy. Just be cool 😎 I’m here to relax.

One more thing, one more thing my fellow. Were you following along for the Beyoncé weekend when I am assuming Shine sent the POC “friend”. That was an absolute, I’m a very white lady really trying hard not to be cancelled cringe fest. I was sooo uncomfortable watching every story unravel. Yikes on all the bikes.

Thanks for the screen shot. I am no closer to understanding what WTH that spiral into crazy town was all about 😂 This week really got me missing the old sub. So much luggage to unpack this week!!!

Ooo yay, a fan. I have some Q’s: Why is an NFL playing a game in Brazil? Why did NFL Canada host Birdie there? Does anyone during this time of uncertainty and peril going on in the world want to watch internet strangers having excessive “organized fun” right now? Do these campaigns or whatevs work in the positive from a marketing dollars stand point? What does the NFL gain from these influencers? I am not a sports fan, at all, nor do I know any personally.

Thanks for taking the time to explain :)
