Transcript from observation logs XX-XX-[2174] Assigned observer: 455-3239-D. Subject Beta grabs Subject Alpha and positions her in front of full-length mirror / Camera 3. B: Look at yourself in the mirror and say that. Call yourself Dante. Tell me, like you told me when we started, that your name is Dante and you are a guy. Oh, nothing against trans women; you've dated… how many was it?  Subject Alpha trembles slightly, but does not respond. B: You're going to be a MAID, just like me. Otherwise, they'll leave you in a box to rot while the rest of us get to live our lives. Get to shine in the spotlight. You saw what happened to the other washouts, Anna. I don't want that to happen to you. CREDITS: Max Knightley as Lavender Spadeheart and Flip.exe Mike Painter as Hercule Heavensward Molly Rhinebeck as L.E.

Sure, it’s convenient to be able to write in multiple languages, but sometimes the auto-correct messes you up too. No problem, in today’s lesson we talk about how to set up your phone to type in either English or Portuguese.DialogueA: Droga, eu detesto esse teclado com autocorreção. B: Por quê? Você não acha que ajuda com as palavras que não sabe digitar? A: Pra isso sim, mas as vezes eu escrevo em inglês e outras vezes eu escrevo em português. B: Você sabe que dá pra alterar o teclado para as duas línguas, não é mesmo? A: Sério, como que faz isso? B: Olha, vai para Ajustes, daí Geral, daí Teclado, e daí Teclados. Tá bom? A: Tá. B: E agora olha que diz, “Adicionar Novo Teclado.” Pressiona essa, e aí você vai ver a lista de outras línguas. A: Olha lá! Tá, deixa eu escolher o inglês e o Emoji. Tá, legal. Mas e agora, o que que eu faço para trocar entre esses três? B: Bom, isso é mais fácil ainda. Olha aqui no teclado, tem esse pequeno globo, não é? A: Sei. B: Então, toque no globo e vai pressionando para ver todos os teclados, e aí seleciona quando chegar na língua que você quer. A: Só isso, é fácil. B: É fácil, menina e tem mais, hein? Olha que agora a mudança de teclado também muda o dicionário, a autocorreção, e o texto preditivo. A: Ainda bem, porque as vezes fico na dúvida com algumas palavras em inglês. B: Ah eu sei, por exemplo, selecione a palavra, e clica em “Definir.” Pronto, e ele vai dar a definição dessa palavra em inglês, olha que beleza? A: Nossa, beleza, muito obrigada Andreia. B: De nada.A: Dang it, I hate this keyboard with auto-correction. B: Why? Don’t you think that it helps with the words that you don’t know how to spell? A: For that yes, but sometimes I write in English and other times I write in Portuguese. B: You do know that you can change the keyboard for the two languages, right? A: Really, how do you do that? B: Look, go to Settings, then General, then Keyboard, then Keyboards, OK? A: OK. B: Now see what it says, “Add New Keyboard.” Click this and then you will see the list of other languages. A: Look at that! OK, let me choose English and Emoji. That’s cool. But now, what do I do to change among these three? B: Well, that is even easier. Look here on the keyboard, there is this little globe, right? A: Right. B: So, click on the globe and keep on pressing it to see all of your keyboards, and from there choose it when you get to the language that you want. A: That’s it, it’s easy. B: It’s easy girl, and there’s more, you know? Look how now by changing the keyboard you also change the dictionary, the auto-correction, and the predictive text. A: Just as well, because there are times when I’m not sure how to spell words in English. B: I know, and for example, select the word, and click on “Define.” There you go, it will give you the definition to this word in English, isn’t that cool? A: Wow, that’s beautiful, thanks a lot Andreia. B: You are welcome.

Bahia, if food doesn’t come to mind as the very first thing, chances are that it’s the still one of the top associations. Vatapá, caruru, moqueca, it just seems that the never-ending list of great foods just sparkle with a Bahia shine. In today’s lesson we focus on the food that perhaps most we most associate with Bahia: Acarajé. Listen to Andreia and Antonio tell us how acarajé is made.DialogueA: Andreia, qual você diria que é a especialidade gastronômica que mais representa a culinária baiana? B: Rapaz, essa é fácil, tá na cara, é o acarajé. Veja só, massa de feijão-fradinho, cebola, sal, frito em azeite-de-dendê, e ainda servido com pimenta, vinagrete, camarão e vatapá. É o típico da cozinha afro-baiana. A: Você acha que é mais típico do que, por exemplo, o caruru? O caruru que é feito com quiabo, camarões secos moídos e azeite de dendê é super típico também, Andreia. B: É, mas no caso do acarajé, Antônio, tem toda aquela imagem das baianas com vestimenta africana, vendendo nas ruas. Na minha opinião acho que o acarajé ganha, viu? A: Sei lá, eu nem sei direito, que que é esse o feijão-fradinho. É típico na culinária baiana? B: Olha, é um feijão que se usa muito no nordeste, rapaz. A gente quebra ele num moinho, em pedaços grandes, aí deixa de molho lá na água para tirar a casca. Depois, você passa novamente no moinho para criar uma massa bem fina. É muito trabalho, viu? A: Sei, e vem cá, você acha que o sabor vem mais da massa ou mais do azeite-de-dendê que se usa? B: É uma boa pergunta. O segredo para o acarajé ficar macio está no tempo que a gente bate a massa. Ela tem que ficar com a aparência quase de espuma. Mas eu concordo com você, o azeite-de-dendê tem um sabor muito característico e ele é indispensável, viu? A: Pois é, e quando eu vejo as baianas preparando o acarajé, parece que o azeite está bem quente. B: Isso mesmo, bem quente. E você já viu como elas usam as duas colheres para fritar, uma para pegar a massa e a outra para moldar os bolinhos. Olha, realmente é uma arte. A: É parece que a arte e o segredo está mesmo no jeito que elas cortam o acarajé no meio e botam o recheado com camarão, vatapá, caruru, e pimenta. B: Tá vendo, te peguei. Você também acha que é a especialidade que mais representa a Bahia, não é?A: Andreia, what would you say is the gastronomic specialty that most represents Bahian cooking? B: Man, that’s easy, it’s as plain as your face, it’s acaraje. Just look, black-eyed beans dough, onions, salt, fried in palm oil, and served with peppers, vinaigrette, shrimp and vatapa. It’s a typical afro-bahian food. A: Do you think it is more typical than, for example, caruru? Caruru is made from okra, dried ground shrimp, palm oil, and it’s super typical too Andreia. B: Right, but in the case of acaraje Antonio, it has that whole image of bahians with their African clothing, selling on the street. In my opinion, I think that acaraja wins. A: I don’t know, I don’t even really know what this black-eyed beans is. Is it typical of bahian food? B: Look, it is a bean that is used a lot in the northeast, man. People break it up in a grinder, in big pieces, and then they let it soak in water to remove the shell. Then you grind it again to make a thin dough. It’s a lot of work, you know? A: Got it, and tell me, do you the think the flavor comes more from the dough or more from the palm oil that you use? B: That’s a good question. The secret to acaraje to be soft is in how long you beat the dough. It has to have a foamy consistency. But I agree with you, palm oil has a very characteristic flavor and it is indispensible, you know? A: Yea, when I see the Baianas preparing the acaraje, it seems like the oil is really hot. B: It really is, really hot. And you saw how they use the two spoons to fry it, one to get the dough and the other to shape the little balls. You know, it’s a real art. A: And it seems that the art and the secret is in the way that they cut the acaraje in half and put in the fillings with shrimp, vatapa, caruru, and peppers. B: You see, I got you. You also think that it’s the specialty that most represents Bahia, right?

But I agree with you, palm oil has a very characteristic flavor and it is indispensible, you know? A: Yea, when I see the Baianas preparing the acaraje, it seems like the oil is really hot. B: It really is, really hot. And you saw how they use the two spoons to fry it, one to get the dough and the other to shape the little balls. You know, it’s a real art. A: And it seems that the art and the secret is in the way that they cut the acaraje in half and put in the fillings with shrimp, vatapa, caruru, and peppers. B: You see, I got you. You also think that it’s the specialty that most represents Bahia, right?
