its your fav mcd-was-a-political-thriller anon and im here for a spicy take: Jesson needs to stop making blatant microaggressions as cutesy ๐๐๐๐๐๐โข questions or as a hahaha funny gagโข when werewolves and mei'fwa are written to be discriminated minorities.
In MCD s1, we're told that werewolves are dangerous brutes who are aggressive, but then we're shown how level-headed Bodolf is, how the western wolf tribe actively helps Aphmau and how they're genuinely good people. We even have a sweet arc where Donna accepts Logan for being half-werewolf and they both adopt Yip (who's the only surviving werewolf member of a GENOCIDE). S1 actively subverts the expectation of werewolves being dangerous or stupid, they're equals to their human cast members.
... Then S2 Ep72 (0:30โ2:05) happens where Aphmau and Zoey are being fucking racist to Yip where the following conversation ensues:

... Oh my fucking god, Jesson. When I was rewatching MCD, I cringed so hard into my skin and I had to do a double take if they were fr doing this for the bit. Im sorry, my like for MCD Aphmau and Zoey TANKED after that scene oh my fucking god. Yip is a survivor of the eastern wolf village, a tribe that was murdered in a G E N O C I D E because of Zane and... theyre treating him like a fucking dog? B R O?
It's even worse with Mei'fwa with how in PDH, Aphmau was asking Kai if he could go 'Nya!' to him or if Mei'fwa called the bathroom 'the litterbox' because MCD had an arc in Nahakara Village where Aph was discriminated against being a Mei'fwa. Also Kaitlyn being a canonical racist against werewolves cus they beat up her brother??????
I know jack and shit about whatever the hell happened to MyStreet beyond S3, but hearing about Aph's mom having a race kink is เฒ โเฒ
Like, oh my fucking god these microaggressions are awful, and I HATE how they're being played off as jokes because its so discomforting as a POC. These jokes would be absolutely fine if Jesson didnt made werewolves or mei'fwa victims of oppression/discrimination.
Please, rewriters of MCD and MyStreet alike, please do not repeat this๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ

Thinking about the time Romano said he wanted to be a cat, and Italy took it way to seriously and went to go ask Britain to turn his brother into a cat with his black magic and Britain said he couldnโt but Romania was like โI CAN, I CAN TURN YOUR BROTHER INTO A CAT!!โ I donโt know where to find it though dnmdjeej

Tag 8 people you want to get to knowย
Thanks for the tag @schofieldedย <3
Favorite Color: Green!! Specifically sea-foam green or any of those lighter tones.
Last Song I Listened To: Right now, iโm listening to Level of Concern by Twenty One Pilots lol, itโs an absolute bop.
Favorite Musician: Thaaaatโs just as bad as asking me whatโs my favorite song, I have too many bands that I love I canโt choose one. The ones I listen to the most, or I have some connection to are Fall Out Boy, IDKhow, Panic! At the Disco, Owl City and Bleachers :)
Favorite Song: And there it is lmao. Like I said, I cannot choose just one but I can definitely give a few that Iโve been vibing too recently. Devil Town by Cavetown, POP 101 by Marianas Trench and Ho Hey by The Lumineers.
Last Film I Watched: Captain Fantastic (watched it for the second time this week oops.) Itโs pretty good, I may of got teary eyed towards the end but we donโt talk about that.
Favorite Places Iโve Been: Arches/Canyonlands National park is what first comes to mind, driving out to those parks in Utah was such an amazing experience. I got to practice my photography and enjoy the gorgeous desert landscape, four days in Moab wasnโt enough for me I was dead set on just moving there for a while I loved it so much out there. I also saw the beginning of the Grand Canyon for the first time and oh god up on that edge, I felt so small. We donโt really travel like that, usually if I go out of state its to fly to Vegas to visit my grandparents. Second choice would probably be up north in Three Lakes, itโs so gorgeous up there. I used to go up there for a week every summer for camp, good times. Until we got older.
Last Book Iโve Finished: Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring. That was way back when we still could go to school, lately I havenโt really been motivated to read, which honestly sucks but what can ya do.
Sweet, Savory or Spicy: Sweet or Savory, I cannot stand spicy foods.
Sparkling Water, Tea, or Coffee: T E A. I am such a sucker for tea. Sweet or Raspberry tea is usually my go-to. When I was sick ( I stg I had a version of Corona then it was b a d) I drank a lot of Green tea and that was pretty good, and during the summer I like to mix pink lemonade with iced tea. Y UM.
First Thing Iโll do when released from quarantine: HUNT DOWN ALL MY FRIENDS AND NEVER LET GO. Crying to my art mom, making ramen in the art room. I canโt wait to get the hell out and back to finishing High School.
Iโll tag @youdontrememberthesommem @amontllado @marrowbbones @a-beautiful-struggle-of-life @aph-shy Yโall donโt have to do this if you want ^^ If you see this and want to do it goย โhead.

Put This In Your Mouth
=It had been a minute. Okay, it had been a three-year minute since AphroditHE had seen the stage at The Red Doors. It likely would have stretched into a longer spell but she wasnโt having the crumbs of cameos I was tossing at her. One off bookings were not satisfying her appetite to be seen and heard at regular intervals. She was not amused by the offers sheโd been made for inferior employment that would stuff her into cookie-cutter drag schtick. She was uncompromising, an original. Aph was about to bust through my ribs Alien style if I didnโt set the songbird free from the cage and soon. She decided to irritate me into action by serenading me with various medleys of Fine Young Cannibals โShe Drives Me Crazy,โ Sisqoโs โThong Song,โ and Ricky Martinโs โLivin La Vida Loca.โ I did not know who in the hell gave her permission to dip into all that nineties. Wasnโt me.
The truth was I had been slinging tacos like every day was Tuesday, and serving up too many happy endings to give her the time she demanded. But, in the name of inner peace and maintenance of sanity, I had summoned my balls and made the call to the man in charge, one Mr. Jax Kingston. Aph may have preened a little too much when she was welcomed back as if sheโd never gone on hiatus.ย She had a quality about her and served as a living, breathing aphrodisiac to the clientele at the club, a figurative fluffer. Sheโd work the clients up and whet their appetites for more, but was never the one to entertain company in the private suites. The gentlemen in her audience often found themselves lingering after the show, tempted by other offerings at the Doors, cementing her value to the club.ย The parting had not been a bad one, it was entirely professional on both sides, but time had a way of eroding relationships that werenโt maintained. Fortunately for her, The Red Doors and I had picked up like old friends, and the rest, as they say, was history.ย
The immersion back into the scene was not going to come without its discomfort. I was grossly behind on standard upkeep, which was beyond unacceptable to Aph. This would also make for a painful reentry into her world. Waxing was not for the faint of heart, but thankfully, I liked the rush of adrenaline.ย
A little pain would be worth the ultimate ability to appease her while I took the back seat. To her delight, I set aside the morning before the lunch rush to attend to the most pressing needs. There was much to tame and manicure, but Iโd leave the face for the following day because, spoiler alert, I could sprout a beard overnight. Aph was not about to be the bearded-lady on some side stage. No. That thought was a threat to the very essence of AphroditHE.
I prepped my skin with a warm towel wrap while the wax was heating and laid out my pre-cut waxing strips. I preferred to do away with larger swatches of hair at a time, more pain but also efficient aka gain.ย
While attending to my legs, I praised the Gods that I came with a hairless back and chest, and let my thoughts flit to the time ma mรจre had caught me with her razor, going to town on every little hair I could find. And I mean EVERYWHERE. Taught her to walk in on me...never.ย
Smooth skin. Dresses. Glamorous makeup.ย It lured me like I was the long lost siren meant to climb right up on that cliff and call men to their certain deaths with my wiles. I was all about it, but only the illusion. I wasnโt keen on giving up the cock, because the boys liked what I had on offer, and, okay, okay, I did too.ย
It was for my sweet sixteen I had slipped into my first gown and as a gift to myself, performed for my audience of family and friends. My parents were gracious and accepting, evenโฆ proud at times, despite my penchant for dramatics. I knew how fortunate I was for their acceptance of not only my sexuality and self-expression, but also my taste for expensive things. It made my bleeding heart ache relentlessly that so many of my peers did not walk such a road.ย
Not that I didnโt have my issues...they just didnโt come from mommy and daddy.
Slathering some wax on the top of one calf before applying the first strip with firm strokes for a proper adhering, I braced myself. I gripped the lifted end and yanked fast, yelping so loud it could have woken a village, but in the wake of my pain there was not a hair to detect, nothing but pinked skin.=
The things I put myself through for you, Aph.ย
=Heaven sakes, she immediately launched into โThe Show Must Go On,โ full on belting it in my brain. Queen was persistent, Iโd give her that. With every pass on the fruitful follicles, she was becoming more and more satisfied, aware her time was near.ย While I worked to get my sea legs back, Iโd be showing in a limited capacity.ย Former clients had called Aph an addiction, always begging for another taste, an encore, more. If I was available every night would that leave them fiending for another hit? Never. Theyโd be stuffed on me, and Iโd be at risk of losing the allure I held. There was more to the art of drag than waxing, tucking and applying make-up, it was as much about keeping them thirsty, teasing at the possibility of more, and then bringing them to their knees while never actually surrendering. Mastering that list meant full audiences, and โatโ and โcapacityโ were two words that made the boss man happy, especially given the intimate setting.ย
Everything was smooth, from the bikini line to the tops of my toes by the time I had to think about getting out of the robe and into something more appropriate for slinging tacos.ย
To give Aph her due, Iโd prepped all the food the night before,ย from fresh batches of my Money Shot hot sauces in various heats and flavors, to the featured menu item - the ridiculously delicious spicy pineapple chicken tacos, and a customer favorite Happy Ending, my irresistible Tres Leches cupcakes.ย
Aside from my drag ambitions, growing up Iโd had another persistent dream. When I wasnโt busy singing acapella into my hairbrush while staring in the mirror, I could be found in the kitchen experimenting with recipes and flavor profiles while using my parents as taste testers. My parents had thrown down a buttload for culinary school and while they probably would have loved to see me ascend to the ranks of Pepin, or Ramsay or even Bourdain, I had ultimately decided tacos were the way to bring about world peace.ย
Before food trucks were the thing, Iโd had the thought to put my spin on the mom and pop taco truck. I wanted mine to be skanky, swanky and a tad camp, but for the food to be slap-your-mama delish. Dessert was a must, and I had a specific concept for that too, aimed at the dirty minded. Who wouldnโt love a happy ending after a taco tongue massage?ย ย
Iโd saved for the truck while perfecting recipes and menus, not to mention an armory full of happy ending offerings. Everything I made was from scratch, and after buying the truck, I got to grinding, determined to make it turn a profit. After seven months, I met that goal.ย
When I deemed myself presentable for the lunch crowd, I loaded up my truck and headed down to Fremont Street because I was feeling a little Marilyn-Rat-Pack-Throwback. Hopefully the high rollers were hungry.=

Iโm really debating whether to let APH mom be a part of their lives again and Iโm leaning towards yes because a bunch of you really like that idea I guess. She wonโt be around super often maybe like theyโll talk once a month or Smth. Also APH momโs name is Louise (Luise) and Spicy mom is Julia (like the daughter of Julius Caesar because I canโt stop thinking about him)
