Temer became president after the soft coup that removed president Dilma, as he was her vice.
He was almost impeached as well, but managed to buy Congress with a couple billion reais meant for education.
IIRC he is the most hated president in Brazilian history, even more than Bolsonaro.


Average is sensitive to outliers, it is possible more than half is below it (or above).
You want median.
I cut it with a fork against the side of the pot to check if it’s done.
Not a good joke. It’s an annoying stereotype, although unfortunately some around here make it sort of deserved 😮💨
Yes, there are many Germanic colonies around here, last year we did celebrate 200 years of immigration. Fun fact: the wife of the first Brazilian emperor was an Austrian Habsburg.
My city was founded in 1850, before Germany was even a single country.
While I don’t know when exactly my family came here I know it was way before WW2.
I come from a Germanic colony in Brazil, and while the language has been mostly genocided out, people still sometimes drop random German words in the middle of Portuguese, or mix Portuguese words with some German grammar.
My mother when younger visited Germany and got confused looks from the family hosting her by asking where was the “lixolatte” (“lata de lixo” is the Portuguese for garbage can)
I think I only heard/read it once or twice, but yes, I think most shorten it to just cavalos

Satan means “Accuser”, in the book of Job he is trying to convince God that humans are too wicked and corrupt to deserve all the gifts God gives us, and and that people only pretend to love God because we expect something in return.


In the book of Apocalypse/Revelation that’s 2 places, there’s the Land of the Dead, and the Lake of Fire; it tells the former will be thrown into the latter at the very end of things, after the Land of the Dead has been emptied.


And even on Dante’s Inferno Satan is just another prisoner, not a ruler.
Not remembering childhood is not necessarily an ADHD thing. The puberty hormones tell the brain to prune older memories, IIRC it’s called “childhood amnesia”.

Nero didn’t pretend to care about Christians or for their support; although if there were MAGA-like “Christians” in the Roman Empire he maybe might have liked them?
Every time I make a comment similar to this someone replies with this link 😄
The idea of “Rapture” is very recent; and based on a very problematic pseudo-theology.
But for your idea, something more theologically solid relates to the idea that God is the source of all good, a world where God is entirely absent would be only evil and suffering, Hell.
They do support an Antichrist…
Also, the Brazilian Constitution only protects speech if it’s not anonymous.
