About Manaus

Back in the day, like medieval times, brothels were everywhere—legal too! Church even ran some, can ya believe it? Priests pimpin’—wild as a squirrel on a trampoline! Got me mad tho—hypocrisy burns me up. How you preach purity then cash in on flesh? Ugh, makes my brush shake. But then, I’m happy—some gals flipped it, made bank, bought freedom. Little known fact: London’s “stewhouses” in the 1300s? Owned by women sometimes. Badass, right? Happy little rebels!

And holy schnikes, the Parque da Primavera! It's a green pocket in the city where you can literally feel life, like in that freakin’ movie "Requiem for a Dream" when the dreams turn into nightmares—but like, in a good way, ya know? There’s that one bench by the river, the Doce Riachuelo, and I swear, sittin’ there inspires the weirdest deep thoughts… "The closer you get, the darker the night gets," echoing those movie lines in my head, yo.
