Trovare l'anima gemella basandosi unicamente su una serie di conversazioni telefoniche. Un gioco delle coppie diverso da tutti gli altri, per niente banale e sicuramente intrigante da ascoltare. Vabbé aggiungo che si tratta di un podcast di Radiotopia e che ci collaborano podcaster e autori/trici super-ascoltabili qualsiasi cosa facciano. Il link a 'Hang Up' lo trovate in fondo alla pagina.
TRASCRIZIONE [ENG translation]
La prima difficoltà quando questa mattina ho decis, l'argomento di cui avrei parlato è stato trovare la traduzione italiana di 'reality dating show'. Cos'è un dating show? Gioco delle coppie? È quel programma, solitamente televisivo, dove vanno dei maschi e delle femmine e il fine del gioco è di trovare, di accoppiare queste persone.
Di solito c'è una donna e diversi uomini, oppure un uomo e diverse donne. Non sono particolarmente attratta da questo tipo di programmi televisivi, perché in generale la televisione generalista un po' non mi attrae, non mi interessa, e poi questi spettacoli televisivi sono in giro da decenni, per cui qualsiasi cosa l'abbiamo già vista è tutto trito e ritrito.
E poi stamattina sono incappata in uno di questi programmi che non solo mi è sembrato diverso dagli altri, ma mi ha così interessato che non vedo l'ora di ascoltare la prossima uscita, e mi ha trovato questo programma, in un modo insolito, perché anzitutto non è alla televisione, ma è un podcast, quindi è solo audio, e poi anche le modalità con cui si svolge sono interessanti. Come funziona?
C'è una una donna che sentirà telefonicamente sei persone che sono possibili partner, di sessi diversi, e solo in base alle conversazioni telefoniche dovrà decidere poi quale di queste sei persone potrebbe diventare il potenziale partner. Poi c'è il twist che una volta che la ragazza, Maxine, (non è il suo vero nome), una volta che Maxine ha scelto uno di questi sei personaggi, al personaggio prescelto viene data la possibilità di scegliere: vuoi una vacanza pagata, tutto pagato con Maxine, oppure voi mille dollari?
Ecco, questi sono dei dettagli interessanti, perché anzitutto è un programma dove non c'è una donna che cerca uomini, ma diciamo che si basa tutto sulle affinità elettive, indipendentemente dal sesso, e questo già me l'ha reso molto simpatico, le persone non usano i loro veri nomi, quindi non possono andare a cercarsi online e non possono nemmeno descriversi fisicamente, quindi è effettivamente una cosa esclusivamente basata sull'affinità... audio, quasi potrei dire. E poi anche il premio finale, mille dollari che sicuramente non cambiano la vita a nessuno, quindi diciamo che è veramente basato sulla simpatia e sulle conversazioni che vengono fatte al telefono tra queste persone.
Mi ha subito preso, ho ascoltato le due prime puntate che sono on line, vi metto il link, è in inglese, se capite l'inglese vi consiglio di dare un ascolto perché vale veramente la pena.
TRANSLATION
The first difficulty, when this morning I decided the topic I would talk about, was finding the Italian translation of 'reality dating show.' What is a dating show? Couples game? It's that program, usually television, where males and females go and the purpose of the game is to find, to pair up these people.
Usually there is one woman and several men, or one man and several women. I'm not particularly attracted to these kinds of TV shows, because in general, generalist television doesn't attract me, doesn't interest me, and then these TV shows have been around for decades, so whatever they show, we've seen it all before.
And then this morning I stumbled upon one of these programs that not only seemed different from the others, but I was so interested that I can't wait to listen to the next release, and this program found in an unusual way, because first of all it's not on television, but it's a podcast, so it's audio only, and then also the way it's conducted is interesting. How does it work?
There is a woman who will hear by telephone from six people who are possible partners, they are of different sexes, and only on the basis of the telephone conversations will she then decide which of these six people might become the potential partner. Then there is the twist that once the woman, Maxine, (not her real name), once Maxine has chosen one of these six characters, the chosen character is given a choice: do you want a paid vacation, all paid up with Maxine, or do you want thousand dollars?
Here, these are some interesting details, because first of all, it's a program where there's not a woman looking for men, but let's say it's all based on elective affinities, regardless of gender, and that already made me like it, people don't use their real names, so they can't go and look each other up online and they can't even describe themselves physically, so it's actually a purely affinity-based thing... audio, almost I could say. And then also the final prize, a thousand dollars that certainly doesn't change anybody's life, so let's say it's really based on the sympathy and the conversations that are had on the phone between these people.
It immediately grabbed me, I listened to the first two episodes which are online, I will put the link, it is in English, if you understand English I recommend you give it a listen because it is really worth it.

Considering that there’s another post going around that lands on this conclusion, I think it deserves its own succinct post:
When transmascs share instances of positivity to remind each other that the way we are treated isn’t all bad, it’s then used as proof of the whole of transmasc experiences being this way, and that transmascs are not oppressed as a whole.
When transmascs share instances of harm done to transmascs to raise awareness that transmascs are harmed directly within our societies, it’s used as proof that we are taking up too much room in conversations because the harm we face “isn’t bad enough”.
When transmascs share instances of outright murder of members of our community to show that no, transmasc issues are not somehow “lesser” because “we aren’t dying” because we are dying, it’s used as proof that we are trauma dumping and trying to make other people feel sorry for us—look at these AFABs being whiny and hysterical and trying to portray themselves as victims. Or that it isn’t specific enough to us so we should shut up and let other people speak for us.
Transmascs cannot speak about our experiences without being touted as an example of why transmascs as a whole should shut up.
This is erasure.

end result of the Evil Art Style Challenge! it's the deep dark :)
i asked my followers what traits they associate with my art and then had to try drawing without any of them (readmore for list)
thin smooth lineart -> no lineart
shiny highlights -> no shiny :(
3/4ths angle for faces -> straight on view
expressive eyes -> character is wearing goggles (i wasn’t really sure how to Not do this? it would be an interesting challenge to try to do this without hiding the eyes but i’d need more detail abt what ‘expressive’ means)
good hands -> only one hand is visible + it is a blob
clothing folds -> ok look i was trying not to put any folds on that cloak but looking at it now i think i did it anyway on accident. i was just trying to color it in i swear
minimalist background -> detailed background

Okay, I found more info on the article where it says that Vash stays away from people so he doesn’t fall in love, and some highlights (translated by Google)
The discussion about the typhoon's non-killing and anti-killing is actually not aesthetic. At first, I just thought it would be very interesting for the main character, who is obviously a strong shooter, to solve problems with a gun instead of a gun, But sure enough, when it comes to the issue of life and death, it will become heavy, and as a result, it has been confronted with the story. At the end of the confrontation, I came to a conclusion that people can hurt each other because they don't understand each other. If they understand each other, the weight of life will become completely different. The typhoon has lived on this planet for so long, and through the interaction with people, everyone's life is engraved in their hearts. In the end, the fact that human beings recognize, communicate and connect with each other will become a force to restrain violence, which is also the meaning of the word "family" (inside the body) in TRIGUN.

The setting that the pastor's appearance does not match his actual age was decided on the way. I felt it after reading the pastor's side comics, but this setting is still great, especially when I think back to the pastor's childish behavior in the early days, like deliberately taking chili sauce. If you pour it on the wound of the bad guy, you will feel like he is a big boy XD
-
The typhoon in the ending seems to have completely black hair, but there is still a little golden part, so he will not die immediately at the end of the time.
-
Typhoon finally made friends after living 150 years, will there be lovers in the future? Mr. Naito's answer is that the typhoon has been avoiding this matter because the time axis (PLANT and human) is too different. The person who wants to fall in love with him must be quite big.
