Good morning campers!
You might’ve caught my wild X post some time ago where I jokingly offered to wax someone’s… well, let’s call it a sensitive area. Yep, that absurd little quip about my total ignorance of waxing (and the inevitable pain it’d cause) was a direct jab at Jonathan “Jessica” Yaniv, the Canadian figure known for his outrageous human rights cases over waxing disputes — and now, apparently, trying to sue @transphobe01 or get their Twitter account nuked. That sparked something unexpected, turning into a synth-pop track called “Wax Mirage” all about him. Let me walk you through how this unfolded — and why it might resonate with you, my loyal readers.
The Spark: A Joke Aimed at Yaniv
It all started with that X post, a sarcastic swipe at @transphobe01’s handle, riffing on the ridiculousness of offering to wax Yaniv’s balls — especially since I know zilch about the process. (For context, waxing down there is brutal—hot wax, sensitive skin, and a lot of wincing, as Men’s Health noted in 2018.) The humor was dark and cheeky, fueled by Yaniv’s high-profile cases suing aestheticians for refusing Brazilian wax services (as covered by feministcurrent.com in 2019 and jccf.ca in 2025), and now this latest twist with transphobe01.
Word on the street is Yaniv’s pushing legal action or trying to silence them on Twitter, adding fuel to the absurdity. It was purely hypothetical, but it got me thinking: why not turn this chaos into art? So, I started sketching out a track, imagining a surreal sound to mirror Yaniv’s wild saga.
Crafting “Wax Mirage” About Yaniv
With Yaniv’s story as the muse — especially this latest clash with transphobe01 — I dove into creating a piece that captured the oddity of it all. I opted for a sparse, haunting vibe in parts, leaving room for the rhythm to shine, while building a fuller, catchy core to draw listeners in.
The track evolved with a theatrical edge, hinting at the public spectacle surrounding Yaniv. I crafted it around a four-on-the-floor beat—that steady bass thump of a dance track—adding syncopation with off-beat accents to make it groove. I can almost hear it with a pulsing synth line, my voice stretching over the rhythm. It’s weird, funny, and a pointed take on Yaniv’s waxing drama and his latest antics.
Why Share This With You?
This isn’t just a quirky side project—it’s a creative spin on Yaniv’s story, sparked by that X post and his move against transphobe01. As Substackers, you’re my direct line (unlike the algorithm-riddled social media chaos—see that Reddit thread on newsletters vs. platforms!). I wanted to bring you along, showing how engagement here fuels ideas. The sarcasm in that post? It’s our shared humor—edgy, self-aware, and a little out there, especially with Yaniv’s saga as the muse.
