The Obey Me! Anime but as a Mockumentary
This is part 3 of stealing stuff from other franchises (LOL), but this time I'm writing about the anime because I was bored and had another thought that needs to be set free onto the world.
I want to preface this by saying I LOVE the anime, its funny and cute; its very 'slice of life'-ie and the boys are all so silly in this version. but I want something different, and hopefully longer episodes.
So, what is a 'Mockumentary'? essentially its a mix of the words 'Mock' and 'Documentary'. Google defines it as 'a type of film or television show depicting fictional events, but presented as a documentary which in itself is a subset of a faux-documentary style of film-making.' Think of shows such as 'Modern Family' and 'The Office'.
i'm going to try and follow some of the plots in the actual anime but trying to get it to fit 22 minutes which is how long episodes usually are of this type.
i try to keep it condensed or we'd be here all day <3
I tried my best
---------------
i've decided to write episodes down with a formula of:
Ep 1- No Motivation to Study. (All brothers)
Ep 2- Ruri-Chan Viewing Party. (Leviathan)
Ep 3- For Whom the Belly Rumbles. (Beelzebub)
Ep 4- Princess Asmodeous is in Another Castle. (Asmodeous)
Ep 5- Mammon and the Dog. (Mammon)
Ep 6- Detective Satan. (Satan)
Ep 7- Camp Lucifer. (Lucifer)
Ep 8- A Trip for 7. (Belphegor)
Ep 9- Beach Babes (All brothers)
Ep 10- A Bunny Boy's New Years' (All brothers)
Also, i thought it would be funny if MC was the one doing the interview portions; of course, we'd never see MC, but it is alluded that they are behind the camera.

tuesday again 10/24/2023
this post and this series not sponsored by hellofresh
listening
caravan palace's new single MAD. genuinely the song i've had on loop while working but i had a very strong "ugh can't use that one it's cringe" reaction while drafting this entry and am trying to sort of sit with myself for a bit and go okay WHY is it cringe? how can we talk about it being cringe other than the fact that steampunk and electroswing are no longer fashionable? some weeks the policy of No Such Thing As A Guilty Pleasure is easier than others
i would not classify this song as electro or swing, and it's considerably jazzier than their more recent dancey pop stuff. more of a languid stroll with enough brass to keep my brain interested while i peer at spreadsheets? spotify
youtube
-
reading
Alexis Hall's A Lady for a Duke. i liked this quite a bit but i have some longer form thoughts percolating that require a reread. it was a tense but fun read, i do not know that mr hall achieved the goal he set forth below. in a broad initial stroke, there is certainly a great deal of internal conflict not helped by our trans lead’s difficulty seeing her trans self in a loving relationship.
how this conflict resolves did genuinely keep me on the edge of my seat bc i could not fucking figure out how she was going to do it
Tumblr media
-
watching
Pandora and the Flying Dutchman (1951, dir Lewin). this is a movie where (in the immortal words of the switchblade sisters podcast) it’s not what happens, but how it happens. the movie opens with fishermen dredging up two star-crossed lovers. i will not be particularly concerned with spoilers here or in my letterboxd review.
age and a deft scorsese-backed restoration have been very kind to this sea-mist movie. cinnamon fucking topography, technicolor at some of its prettiest and best used. jack cardiff (also did Black Narcissius, The Red Shoes, The African Queen) you've fucking done it again. the restored version is on american tubi and it's so so lush and dreamy. the very first handful of scenes contains a church bell ringing wildly, giving you glimpses of commotion on the beach, and it just keeps getting better from there. the beach party, full of dutch angles and toppled statuary and debauchery and no one dancing the same, is exactly the same as every beach party i have ever been to.
james mason is at his hottest, wettest, and most brooding. not all of our main characters are as openly debauched as pandora, but all of them are just as selfish. i have a lot of fucking beef with some of the letterboxd reviewers, who are simply wrong. pandora is not supposed to be a likeable or redeemable character. i think one of the questions for YOU to answer is whether or not a flighty, homewrecking, irresponsible woman like pandora is redeemed through her willingness to die for true love-- this is generally an admirable quality in myths and fairy tales, but is it cancelled out as just another flight of her fancies that ultimately kills her?
also the people who don't "get" what the film's about and complain it's too slow. it's about insanity and the sea what's not to get!!!
youtube
thank u @dying-suffering-french-stalkers

playing
Tumblr media
so we are mostly through the genshin 4.1 part 2 events. i am so tired of the past few battle events cycling through the same arenas; however, this is the first event where i read the directions and was like "augh that's too complicated we'll do that later" and did all my weekly bounties instead. speaking of bounties, i finally did enough to unlock the treasure chest locator and confirmed my suspicions that i have in fact picked over the region pretty well in the last ~two months. the liffey and research institute were at 85% and 95% respectively before i unlocked this thing, but i did almost immediately find two remarkable chests in the far south by the port. augh. would have bit me if they had teeth etc. i would prefer if the regions showed 100% when i have actually 100%ed them instead of whatever margin they have going now, but i recognize that i have brain problems.
-
making
im MAD bc i was given a singular hellofresh dinner by a friend going on vacation and it was fairly easy to make and tasted good and everything WORKED. and it was like a fun little after work project!!! and the directions said “here’s what to do to the peppers if you don’t want it super spicy” and it most importantly it all WORKED. this is a very expensive thing to have a sudden interest in. i feel like i fuck up most of the food i make and i know that's part of the learning curve but it's SO fucking expensive to fuck up food and i have such a limited amount of energy :<

Jardine throws an extravagant party where he announces the youngsters’ engagement. Unfortunately, Carmino is one of the entertainers hired for the party. Carmino performs a dramatic under-the-sea dance number that creatively retells the story of Blake and Jardine’s underwater battle. As it turns out, Carmino is in love with Blake and she is unpleasantly surprised with the engagement announcement. Carmino threatens to expose Blake. Blake attempts to pay her off.

Under-the-water dance sequence in A Thief in Paradise from Exhibitors Trade Review, 10 January 1925
Blake and Saville are married and head off via airplane to Del Monte Beach for their honeymoon. Blake is overwhelmed with guilt and is working up the courage to make a full confession to Saville. Unbeknownst to Blake, Carmino has followed the couple. Carmino goes straight to Saville, but rather than revealing the deception, she claims that she is Blake’s mistress and that he has been keeping her. Carmino uses the pay-off check Blake gave her as evidence. Saville is heartbroken and immediately returns home.
Blake follows Saville back to San Francisco, where he confesses to both the elder Jardine and Saville. The old man’s heart is also broken as he has accepted Blake as his son and loved him as such. Blake is despondent and shoots himself.
Miraculously, Blake survives and Saville has chosen to stand by him and nurse him back to health. Jardine has accepted Blake as his true son, forgiving the deception. Carmino returns home.

Points of Interest:
Contemporary blurb that describes the under-the-sea dance sequence in more detail:
“By a combination of photography and set design, gigantic fish swim about among the coral trees and huge sea shells. Even the human participants in the under-sea dance make their entrance as divers swimming down from the surface to the immense shell on the ocean’s floor which serves as the hiding place of the stellar feminine dancer who is clad in a symbolic costume of pearls.  “In order to enhance the brilliancy of the picture, the entire set, including coral, shells and floor of the sea, was finished in bright silver and the costumes of the dancers were made entirely of especially constructed luminous silver and gold cloth. Even the natural flicker of light and shadow which characterizes scenes actually filmed under water was reproduced by the technicians.  “The marine dance tableau constitutes a play within a play in “A Thief in Paradise.” It is the entertainment provided by the host at a lavish engagement party given in honor of two of the principals and also has an important dramatic value in developing one of the many dramatic moments of the story.” - Moving Picture World, 10 January 1925
Based on some of the stills, I think it’s possible that Aileen Pringle may have had a double for this dance sequence, but no other dancers are credited. There is also no credit I could find for a choreographer.
The amount of pure spectacle packed into a mere seventy-one minutes is astounding to me! Knowing how skilled Frances Marion was as a scenarist, I don’t doubt that A Thief in Paradise managed to deliver plot just as well as it (according to contemporary reviews) delivered the spectacle. Film historians have been working for years to restore Marion’s rightful place as a crucial figure in American film history, so examples of her work being lost sting just that much more. 
Despite the fact that A Thief in Paradise was a huge success and a top box-office draw of 1925, comparatively little digitized material exists online. Most notably absent are stills from the South Seas portion of the film.
This Ronald Colman fan website has some screenshots from the extant trailer as well as a digitized copy of a program from ATiP’s German release.
Hawaiian actress Etta Lee also appears in this film as Carmino’s maid. I ended up going down a bit of a rabbit hole reading about Lee and will probably end up doing a spin-off of this post about her career. You may recognize Lee from her roles in The Untameable (1923), The Toll of the Sea (1922), or The Thief of Baghdad (1924)

Since I decided the best way to make it through Our Skyy 2 with minimal damage is to drink my way through it, welcome to the second round of
CockTails in the Skyy!
Tumblr media
This week's drink is Sun & Stars to celebrate my two precious Sunflowers (JOONGDUNK!) in Star in My Mind:
gin & tonic (to balance the bitter and sweet of this pair's dynamic)
pineapple juice (for that beach vibe)
elder flower syrup and vanilla bean sugar on the rim to add to the sickly sugariness I know I'm in for
Tumblr media
"You are every shade of yellow for me, Daonuea."
I made it strong because I already know what happens for SeanMaithee, and with no further tears to cry, let's get this wedding party started, so I can be properly upset.
Tumblr media
Bottoms up!
That was a very Lana del Rey's "National Anthem" beginning: "I love him. I love him. I love him."
"How many times did you make me cry? How many times did you break my heart?" <- gin & tonic was the right choice
Too much sweetness (pineapple juice), but I think it will sort itself out with the looks Daonuea is giving right now
The water bottles are blurred, so I'm taking that as a sign to only drink alcohol for these episodes.
Sean and Maithee are too hugged up with each other for this to go the way I know it'll go. I'm already bitter <-gin & tonic was the ONLY choice
Tumblr media
The dental students stay doing the most. Mork in Fish Upon the Sky was basically a one-man EMT, Ana in Love Mechanics and Future is checking everyone's temp, and now Kluen is saving all the girlies. Where are the future doctors at?! Coasting?
Hold on! Is Typhoon a future medical doctor? I thought he was a dentist too? Still Dr. Typhoon, but why aren't the doctors doing their volunteer hours in any show ever?!
Min's friend is ON THE GROUND and she is trying to flirt. Priorities, my girl.
Hearing Maithee say he has a date WITH A GIRL, just to hear "O Come All Ye Faithful" right afterwards got me effed up. This is chaotic.
Daonuea is still wearing that sunflower bracelet! Thank goodness for the product placement, so I could see it.
Palm and Kluen both telling their men that they are all they need in life is some real water sign bs. Where are my fire signs?!
Oh snaps! The first episode is already done!
More Sun & Stars for episode 2
Since I'm already a Bitter Body, I went heavy-handed with the gin and skipped the pineapple juice for the second episode. Good choice.
Tumblr media
The scene going from Daonuea and Kluen being all lovey-dovey immediately to Typhoon looking at them in his feelings felt like a personal attack. Alexa, play Sam Smith's "I'm Not Here to Make Friends" 'cause "I NEED A LOVER!"
Tumblr media
I legit stopped the show so I could hear that song, and now Phoon wants to confess he has someone. Another attack!
The friend group being disgusted by these two is the only appropriate response.
Kluen is being a damn water sign again with his response about how he would feel if they never meet again. You are both 10s, sir! Start acting like it! I just need one of these Bl boys to pop off like Cardi B - "I'm a boss bitch! Who you gonna leave me for?"
There is ham and cheese in the spaghetti. Is that a thing?
"Why did you two stop fighting?" - Because they joined the music club and exchanged colors, duh.
Tumblr media
I cannot be rational about JoongDunk. I CANNOT!
Prince was too busy talking to his time-traveling boyfriend in Midnight Museum to film a cameo, I see.
Everyone walking away from Pawin is why I'm a captain of the "Pawin's Milkshake Brings All the Boys to the Yard" step team
Daonuea saying Noel is hard to approach is SLANDER!
Tumblr media
Kluen is salty like them Lay's chip GMMTV snatched from WinTeam and Between Us with all these boys in his room.
I'm so glad Typhoon and Daonuea can be friends too considering the violence that ensued last time.
Tumblr media
God, I miss the (unnecessary) drama.
I noticed this on The Warp Effect, but Joong stays looking soft yet sensual.
Tumblr media
Where is King's mom from Bed Friend to dunk on this ring? Because this ain't it, sir. Is the star a sapphire? Is the center of the sunflower a pearl? Diamond? ¿Qué es esto?
Tumblr media
Rose petals are romantic and all, but let's stick to the theme. Where are the sunflower petals?!
What in the Blair Witch Project was that tree lantern thing?
Kluen saying he used up all his luck snagging Daonuea is so . . . he is a Cancer? A Pisces?! WHAT IS THIS?! He was not laying it on this thick in the show.
Oh, thank goodness, it ended right when I ran out of gin.
Tumblr media
For the rating, the drink and the episodes were too sweet, yet somehow still very bitter because no SeanMaithee. I got JoongDunk, a proposal, and alcohol, so I'll take my wins where I can get them.
7/10 CockTails for doing its job but being bittersweet.
I'm going to have to make my Jack Nasty much stronger than I planned for next week's episodes of The Eclipse considering we are getting that strange teacher/student relationship.

"this is a god damn bitch of an unsatisfactory situation"

Talking with Michael and Shawn Rasmussen
A few weeks ago I attended the 2023 Boston Underground Film Festival and the Opening Night Film was Jeffrey A. Brown’s The Unheard, which just premiered on Shudder. What got my attention about this, was screenwriters / producers Michael and Shawn Rasmussen. 
Tumblr media
2023 Boston Underground Film Festival: Michael, Shawn and Jeffrey during the Q&A with BUFF Artistic Director Kevin Monahan 
The Brothers Rasmussen have become friends of mine over the last decade though the Boston film scene. 2005′s underrated Long Distance was co-written by them. Then they wrote 2010′s institution thriller The Ward, which was John Carpenter’s first movie he directed in about 10 years. Then they wrote and directed 2013′s Dark Feed, a horror movie about a movie crew filming in a scary location. They wrote and directed the indie horror film The Inhabitants (I was lucky enough to attend the private cast/crew/friends screening in 2015). Then they co-wrote Alexandre Aja’s Crawl (one of my 10 Best Movies of 2019). With The Unheard, Michael and Shawn have created a psychological horror film that was one of the highlights of this year’s BUFF. Plus it was filmed in Boston and Cape Cod. I recently got the chance to talk to Michael and Shawn while we both were attending BUFF.
Tumblr media
movie poster
Me: I’ve hung out with you both many times over the years at BUFF, sat next to you at screenings, and hung out at festival parties. This year you had the Opening Night Film with The Unheard. What was that like for you guys?
Michael: It was pretty awesome. It was surreal.
Shawn: We’ve always wanted a movie at BUFF, but to have a movie as the Opening Night at the festival was unbelievable. It wasn’t something we expected to happen, it was just a huge surprise when our director [Jeffrey A. Brown] reached out and said “Hey guys, the film is going to be at BUFF and it’s going to open the festival” and we were just stoked.
Me: I’m sincerely happy for you guys. Something I’ve talked to you about with Crawl is that the house was like a character in and of itself. In The Unheard, there is something similar in that the house is like a character. Is that something intentional you were thinking about throughout the writing process?
Michael: Well, maybe less the house and more the Cape. We had stayed out on the Cape in the off season, especially in the Outer Cape (Wellfleet and Truro area), it’s kind of a spooky setting for a horror film. And the way sound travels out there. That time of year when no one’s around, it seems a little different, so we thought would be a great place for a horror film. So the Cape was something we were trying to make a character...in the script at least.
Shawn: We were always feeling it would be cool to shoot a film in Wellfleet in the off season. 
Tumblr media
Michael and Shawn
Me: Looking at your filmography: you’ve written something for someone else to direct like The Ward, you’ve gotten the financing in order to direct your own micro-budget films like The Inhabitants, and developed a project with a director like Crawl. Do you guys like where you’re are at this time in your career where you can write and produce The Unheard, work closely with the director and film in Massachusetts for a Shudder production?
Shawn: Well, yeah on this one we are producers, but the way we like to put is we are kind of more creative producers. So it’s more in the development, working with the director in the pre-production. Whereas when we were directing stuff, we were on the ground doing the physical production. So where we are at is more focusing on the creative producing part of it and working with visionary directors like Jeffrey, who when we spoke to Jeff the first time we knew he had a vision for our story that was unique and that he was passionate about. We had seen The Beach House and said this is someone we’d love to work with and see what he would bring to one of our stories, because it’s a very collaborative medium.
Michael: Yeah, I think every time we’ve ever worked with a director they’ve always brought something to the project, whether it was Aja, Jeffrey or Carpenter - they kind of elevated what we already had on the page. We love working with great directors, it makes our job easier [laughs].
Me: Between 2007 and 2012, I worked at AMC Networks in their post and media services department. A few years after I left is when they launched Shudder. In the early years it was mostly streaming the horror and genre movies that they had, but then they actually got into producing some films, which is great for targeting that audience and knowing your film is going to reach the audience you want to see this. What’s it been like working with Shudder?
Michael: It’s awesome, I’m a subscriber. Shawn and I are. So it’s exciting to know when we go in to look at new releases on there, we’re going to see something that we wrote and produced. 
Shawn: They are really filmmaker-friendly. There’s a lot of filmmakers that we know that are doing original projects for Shudder and they are really supporting the filmmaker’s vision. I think Jeff felt that tremendously on The Unheard. They are very auteur-driven and very much supportive of whatever the filmmaker vision is of that project.

Although the winter months are not attractive to many of us to take a travel, explore cities, and meet new cultures, the situation is actually very different. Many destinations from different continents are waiting to be discovered in summer and winter, as long as you have the intention to set off. It is now customary to spend the Christmas holidays in winter sports centers in Europe. Pyrenees in France and Spain, Alps in Austria, Switzerland, and Italy are among the most preferred destinations. Of course, we wouldn't be lying if we say that Christmas markets are among the indispensables of December, especially the Christmas markets in Strasbourg, Munich, and Brussels are more than enough to visit these cities. However, if you are planning to travel to Europe in December, do not forget to take precautions against rain, snow and strong winds. [embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bpwgzbcvwQ[/embed] In Asia, December is one of the best times to visit Laos, where the precipitation is low, and the temperatures are not too high. It is also a good idea to wander around Bangladesh in December and explore its wide beaches and archaeological sites. December is one of the best times to visit locations in the Asian continent. If you avoid places that are too touristy, you can enjoy the peace in Thailand because the weather has not yet warmed up, and it will be raining less. When we come to Africa, Cameroon experiences one of its driest periods in the month of December, the weather is mild, hot winds blow from the Sahara Desert. Likewise, the weather in Senegal is quite ideal. This month is also a good month for the Ivory Coast. If you want to enjoy the beaches in the middle of winter, Seychelles will also be the right destination, but you should not forget that tourists flock to the country during this period and prices increase. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push(); In the Americas, Mexico, the Caribbean, Jamaica, the Bahamas, and Cuba are becoming very popular with their attractive climates. Don't hesitate to put on your shorts and sip your tropical drink in December when the weather averages 28 °C. Another option is to go to New York to go to the New Year's festivals. Best Places to Visit in December / Winter Malta Winter in Malta can still be sunny and warm. November and December temperatures average 10° to 18°C. January is the coldest month due to northeast winds. Perfect for travel to Malta this season, both cheap and less crowded! The peak period is from Christmas to New Years (most hotels will be busy but not fully booked). Don't miss La Valletta, its three fortified cities, Mdina Rabat, UNESCO ancient sites, the Hypogeum, Comino, and the turquoise Blue Lagoon in winter! New York New York City, known as New York City or NYC for short, not to be confused with the state of the same name, has been a leading city in many fields such as media, art, and commerce. This important city, which is also the center of trade and finance, is an indispensable place in terms of foreign relations, as the United Nations General Council building is located here. With a population of 18.7 million, New York is one of the most important cities in America. Festivals are one of the important issues in New York, the city of culture and art. People of different nationalities also have different entertainments in the city, where large-scale New Year's celebrations are held with the New Year's Eve Ball Drop, especially in Times Square. In March and April, St. Patriarch's Day is celebrated, the Cherry Blossom Festival is held, and the Easter Parade is held. "End of May Celebrations" in May, New York Film Festival, Museum Mile Festival and Midsummer Night Swing party in June and July, Lincoln Center Out of Doors in August, San Gennaro Festival, Harlem Week and Greenwich Willage Halloween Parade in September and October In the last two months of the year, November and December, the year ends with the
New York City Marathon, Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony and New Year's Eve celebrations. Bath, England The city of Bath, which is connected to Somerset, takes its name from the hot springs that made the region famous. The city, which has a great place in English culture and literary history, has an important place in all the works and personal life of the great English novelist Jane Austen. There is a museum dedicated to the author in the city. The city, which is 156 kilometers west of the capital London, was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1987. Humidity is high throughout the year and there is often precipitation throughout the year. Air temperature and condition change during the day. The coldest months are January and February, and the hottest months are July and August. The months of May, June, September and October are quite mild, but there is plenty of precipitation. Barcelona, Spain Barcelona, the largest city in Spain after Madrid and the capital of the autonomous region of Catalonia, owes its fame to the works of the artist Gaudi, who steered the modern art movement, which have become the identity of the city, and the interesting city settlement with a grid plan from the 1900s. Described as one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Barcelona welcomes thousands of tourists every year. In Barcelona, where the humid subtropical climate is dominant, the months between May and October are the rainiest and even the driest months. Precipitation occurs in winter and spring. In the city, where the annual average temperature is 21 degrees during the day, the average temperature at night is 14 degrees. The sea temperature is an average of 20 degrees annually. Rovaniemi, Lapland, Finland Lapland is in the north of Finland and the country's largest region. It is located on the north polar circle. The Lapland region is divided between Finland, Norway, Russia and Sweden. But the iconic capital of Lapland is Rovaniemi, located in Finland. Santa Claus Village is also here. As Lapland, the place where most activities can be experienced is 'Finland-Lapland'. The arctic climate prevails in the region. Do not be afraid, although it drops to minus 40 from December to April, it does not freeze. Nurnberg, Germany I recommend that you start your journey from Munich. If you want, you can stay in Munich and go to Nurnberg and Salzburg by train for a day, or you can choose to stay in these 3 cities. Transportation by train is very comfortable and cheap. It is possible to reach by train almost every hour. If you want to go by car, finding a parking space can be quite a problem. Travelers from all over the world try to visit Nurnberg on these dates. When you arrive in Nurnberg by train, the historical walls of the city greet you first. You can access all kinds of information and maps from the tourism office located right here. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push(); There are brochures, books and mobile applications about the city's history, museums, gastronomic points. You don't actually need anything to go to Nuremberg Christlekindlemarkt. You just have to follow people and smells. When you reach the square where there are different colors and smells, a visual intoxication awaits you. The weather is probably close to 0. My suggestion is to reach the first shack selling mulled wine and rum, take your hot drink, whether alcoholic or non-alcoholic, and immerse yourself in a fairy tale book among the chocolate waterfalls, gingerbread hills, stars, fairies, flying cars, and spinning merry-go-rounds. Honolulu, Hawaii Honolulu really does have an "America" effect at first glance. Moreover, here you encounter the old form of those high-rise buildings that you see in most cities of America 50 years ago. You notice that there is an old retro style, far from modernity, not only in tall buildings but also in residential areas. However,
it would not be right to say that Honolulu and the island of Oahu, which it is in, are a commercial and undeserved place to visit. After all, an "island" culture prevails here, even though it is dependent on America. People are smiling. The roads are of North American standard, everyone obeys the traffic rules. The island has an extraordinary nature and many places to explore. Quebec City, Canada In Quebec, which is 98% Francophone, you feel the French influence not only in language but also in culture and nationalism. Some slogans are used on Canadian provincial license plates. The most preferred slogan in Quebec; It is “I remember” ( JE ME SOUVIENS ) and emphasizes that Quebecers have not forgotten their history, their past. Speaking of outside Quebec anyway; Their saying "the rest of Canada" is one of the best indicators of this. Although official correspondence is made in two languages, the language of instruction is French. Children of immigrant families coming to Quebec have to attend French school until high school. However, they can study English after high school and at university. Quebec's rulers, culture, language, etc. Great efforts are made to keep it alive. Let me state right away; Many immigrant families from India, China, and Iran have come here. It also received many immigrants during the Bosnian War, but predominantly Indians. There has been a conflict between Canada and Quebec throughout history, and this situation came to the fore with the referendum held in 1980 to decide whether to leave Canada or not. With 59.5% of the votes, the decision to stay in Canada was made, and the Second Referendum in 1995 was very controversial. Independence in this referendum; It was narrowly missed with a rate of 50.6%. After 1995, although nationalism has started to decline a bit, in my opinion, this issue will continue to be on the agenda from time to time. 70% of Quebec Province is not inhabited because it is very cold. The weather in Quebec City is also very unstable and rises to +35 degrees in summer, but it is much more oppressive due to the humidity. In winter, it can go down to -35 degrees. Reykjavík, Iceland One of the best things about Iceland is that you can swim in outdoor pools every day of the year. Some of the pools filled by natural hot springs are filled with water close to boiling! The capital Reykjavik alone has 17 hot springs, and there are also all-natural pools in every corner of the country. Apart from feeding the pools with hot water, the most important features are the minerals with natural healing properties. If you search the internet for the most famous of these pools, the Blue Lagoon, you will see people covered with white salt from their toenails to their hair.
