It's unpleasant. I wake up with this weird nausea. It's followed by a splitting headache.
It sucks. At night, palpitations. "Will I have a heart attack?
" I can't sleep and it's that cycle. I wake up weird again. Alright.
Have you been tested? Yes, yes I have. I did a CT scan, bloodwork, -urine and stool.
It's all good. -Where do you live, Geraldo? -Rio de Janeiro.
-Alright. Throughout the day have you been in contact with reality? With reality?
Yes. . .
I think so. -How often? -Every day?
Every day. That must be it. You've contracted Brazil 2021.
What do you mean? Is that an illness? It's a slightly worsened variant of Brazil 2020.
-How did I catch that? -Do you keep informed? -A lot.
-Do you use preventive meds before being in contact with the information? -Cannabis, clonazepam, LSD? -No.
That's it, Geraldo. You were exposed. There's no use in social isolation, being locked in to avoid Covid, but being in contact with reality, catching worse things, like the realization that your country is doomed to be underdeveloped and socially chaotic.
It's complicated. You read the newspaper -and listen to podcasts? -Yes.
-Without having a drink? -No, nothing. It's dangerous.
It explains the morning nausea. Do you check your balance at the bank afterwards? -I check every day to follow it.
-Yeah, you can't. That's where the headache comes from. It's Balance Cephalea.
You get it when you check your balance. You mentioned palpitations in the evening. Does the time the palpitations happen coincide with when they release the number of Covid deaths?
Yes, it's when I hear about it. I read that over 2,547 people. .
. MUTE BUTTON Sorry, I muted you. I can't be in contact with that type of information.
Or I can catch it. I'm in the risk group. I've had depression.
If I come into contact with the Brazilian reality, I'll go to the ICU. I'll unmute you. Just don't bring that up again.
-I can't catch it. -Wow. .
. How do I stay safe? I can't handle it anymore.
Relax, there's a remedy. I'll prescribe an alienation kit. You'll retire your smartphone, you'll get an old Nokia, it's only got the snake game.
You'll be addicted. I'll also send a vase with jabuticaba. You'll have to trim, fertilize, water twice a day.
Hard work. You can't think of anything else. And a soap opera "Chocolate com Pimenta" DVD boxset.
Remember? Kayky Brito as a woman, Deborah Blando sings the theme song. -You'll love it.
-Thanks, Doc, but I'm worried. I need to be informed. I'm a journalist.
-You're a journalist? -Yeah. There's another medication that can solve your problems.
-It's harder to get. -What is it? It's called impeachment.
Here's what you'll do: you'll get an alienation cable package. Call them, ask for the "alienation pack", with only Viva and Off. I'll send some images of the Japanese railway mesh.
It's great. You dream of trains. Bullet trains cut the whole country, it's fascinating.
I'll also recommend "Big Brother". But the second edition. From 2002.
Thyrso and Manu. Remember? It's great.
You root for a couple like it matters, but it just ends. But I won't spoil it. World Cup 2002 is great too.
Actually, if you could go back to 2002, that's a great year.
