Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - I’m not like a regular old gay lady buying local cheeses at your work, I’m a cool old gay lady buying local cheeses at your work.
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Friends, I shit you not, I’m cleaning out my garage and just found a box with my size medium AA super-low V’s, LFGOOOOOoooo!
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head” was released 20 years ago (!!) this week, which means it’s also a very important 20th anniversary for me: finding my first gay pop diva as an adult. Obviously I loved Madonna, Janet, and Cyndi growing up, but becoming a Kylie Minogue fan was so completely unexpected to me at that time, a riot grrrl/Toriphile who mostly liked music that made me want to rage or cry (which is a very good thing too!). I don’t really know how to write about music, so I won’t try, but CGYOOMH is just such an absolutely perfect song, and Fever is a perfect album from start to finish, every song is a 100% banger, and it opened a new (or new again) world to me of wanting to dance and feel sexy and iconic. Like, I really don’t know how a tiny Australian pop princess made a fat Pasadena, CA femme lesbian in her thrifted men’s slacks era feel positively oozing with raw sexuality just the way she was, but Kylie did that for me. What a time! What a gift! #femmefriday #cgyoomh20 #kyliefever
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - I think about this meme so much and then I never repost it because I’m like, not in the mood to write a caveat about how of course you shouldn’t demand that people have sex with you, even comedically, and you shouldn’t objectify people without their consent, and, perhaps most importantly, I genuinely enjoy all sizes of titties. But then I think about big titty butches and think of the meme again and want to post it again so I’m doing that now. I hope titties of all gender expressions know how loved they are today 🥰
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - The memory of my eye doctor thinking Jo was my young, inexplicably very white son in our first year of dating will haunt me for all time. Someday they will become a silver fox and I will know peace, but until then I remain hyper-vigilant. #femmefriday
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - I only make memes about very specific things that recently happened to me now, apparently, so FYI me and @samiterrestrial totally got queer femme-clocked at the local pool the other day, and I gotta say, it felt great 💅🏽 #femmefriday
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - The only two forms of self-care I practice are accidentally listening to my body when she’s tired or staying up until 4AM cramming in the things I know make her feel good 🌙🧖🏽‍♀️🚫 💤  #femmefriday
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - A few years ago, this miniskirt femme said that if you ever caught me in public wearing a maxi dress, you should ask me to blink twice if I’ve been kidnapped. In 2021, I’m googling “mega dress,” not because I don’t think I can pull off a mini, but because I need more dress for all my feelings. #femmefriday #timeishomophobic #timeisfemmephobic
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Happy Pride to all who celebrate! I’m feeling kinda ehhh this year, which is a mix of feelings, not all bad necessarily. I’m celebrating by practicing the fundamentals of homosexuality (having gay sex) and conditioning my upper body for optimal hand-flamboyance while telling a good story after a mostly drama-free year 💅🏽 #pridemonth
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Wow my first reel, feels so self-indulgent!! (Love that for me.) I wanted to do these jokes at Hey Chica!! last month because some of them are so very specific to pre-quar they can never be told again (and everyone is fine w that, tbh).
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - I wish I had kept count of the number of times in our nearly 17 years together that I’ve said the words to Jo “You’re the cutest person I’ve ever met. I want to murder you and wear you like a suit, but then I would miss you too much” but I said it today again, so maybe I’ll start from here.

1. Us in Puerto Vallarta on my Drag Race prize trip (thanks Mama Ru!) in April this year
2. Us in SF partying hard in like 2008 shortly after we started dating 
3. OK I’m also posting this to MOTIVATE myself to have the courage to tell the start of our story at @queerspacesstorytelling Thursday 6/20!! 
4. Just a life update 💖

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Yesterday I sat in bed for hours marveling at what a good mood I was in and thinking how grateful I am for my new therapist and that I think my new antidepressants are working…and promptly forgot to take that morning’s dose. Anyways, here is a selfie I took because I’m experimenting with existence again   swipe for what I’m up to. REALLY EXCITED (terrified, horror-stricken, grateful [that word again]) to get back on stage for the first time in over 6 months starting in June!! I hope you are doing ok, even though.

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Truthfully, it took a lot out of me to resist the urge to return briefly to meme form and not simply make one about my recent hysterectomy, but luckily for you: 

1. I saw Challengers, which blew my MIND!!
2. It’s #femmefriday
3. The blue eye shadow and red lip thing that’s happening everywhere 👄
4. I started a new antidepressant after almost 3 years being absolutely ridden raw by major depressive disorder and prrrettty serious anxiety, and it is helping, I think, but it has not made me any less prone to eating ill-advised cheeses. 
5. So yeah, I had surgery and for the very first time, for a little while, I felt completely embodied, totally human, like the woman I’ve been wanting to be my whole life, in fact, and I can’t talk about that much without crying, so it’s probably an essay, not a meme *eyeroll, jackoff motion*

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - I’m being told there are only a few hot tickets left for the @dopaminebooksla fundraiser/performance/dinner/extravaganza THIS SUNDAY @juniorhighla and I would really love it if you specifically would snag one and come! There’s going to be: performances (I know I said that), dinner (yeah), drinks, custom literary fragrance, curated genius artist grab bag raffle, and VERY IMPORTANTLY, you can buy the Dopazine sampler in which my inclusion among so many incredible writers is absolutely mind blowing to me!! Also, this is I guess my super informal announcement that I’m finally writing that book you all* have been clamoring** for with Michelle and Beth as my Dopadoulas and I have to pinch myself every single day because of it. I’m so so excited about all the work Dopamine is going to be publishing and would love to see you Sunday at the big debut!

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Ok but seriously, there is nothing nicer than surprise having your exact needs met without a word as a treat, but I’m pretty sure the ability to say out loud “I need attention” has saved my relationship and friendships a lot of times, and most importantly given me the gift of being openly annoying instead of secretly very, VERY annoying. #femmefriday

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Obviously there were so many things that happened in the episode that couldn’t make it to tv in order to focus on the Queens and the competition. I still have so much to say about the experience filming Drag Race as well as what happened after the show aired, so stay tuned for that (if you want, idfk!) but I wanted to say a special thanks to my fellow lesbian makeover contestants @angieevansbutch and @lisachangadveja 😍😭

One of the things you didn’t get to see is how much fun we had filming together and of course the bts times in the trailer getting to know each other and the “waaait what are we doing again??” moments. I was so scared to put myself out there like this for a lot of reasons, but the first day in the parking lot when I saw Angie, who I’ve known for over a decade just from being a dyke about town in the L.A.-area, I was so relieved. It reminded me that in addition to queer fam, who we were absolutely among in all ways during filming - from our Queens to producers to PAs, everyone was so incredible to us - lesbian community specifically is home, instant family. Sorry to be dramatic, but none of us had ever done anything like this before and when it was over I truly felt like a changed person on a cellular level (for like 3 weeks lol) and I’ll be bonded with these two amazing women over that for the rest of my life! 

In addition to being a barista (however you want to say it) and co-owner of @wideeyesopenpalms, Angie is a beloved pillar of the Long Beach community, musician, and (duh) performer. Lisa is seriously one of the kindest people I’ve ever met and was incredible at pep talks, so her non-profit background was no surprise, but I loved learning that she’s a dyke on a bike aka motorcycle enthusiast and also a writer of children’s books, her most recent being “Chang’s Favorite Fruit.” And now, I feel so insanely lucky to call these two my Drag Sisters 4-Ever!

Special thanks to our producers Frankie @frankiehalleman and Julio @goforjsauce, who literally seemed to be doing 500 things but were always there when we needed them somehow?? Loved getting to know and hanging with both of you!

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - There was actually no punchline to this (or rather, it was just really sad and hard), but I had a chance to say “lil fuckin’ shirt” and “person of bikini wax experience” so it was a success imo!!
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Ok YES queer couples/relationships deserve the same legal rights and protections as hetero ones, and it’s fucked up that we still have to fight for that and live in fear of it being taken away constantly, but I will say, the time before legal gay marriage was a wild ride and a heck of a hoot sometimes! Maybe the answer is that state-sanctioned marriage shouldn’t be one of the only things that provides financial, medical, and social stability for some of us 🤔🤔🤔 OH WELL, BACK TO JOKES!

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - If you know me, you know how much it means to me that Kylie Minogue has snatched crown early for gay song of the summer with Padam Padam, and I’m going to need lesbians to take heed i m m e d i a t e l y!! #femmefriday #padampadam cc: @dykedayla
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Something 🌝fun🌝 and 🤡quirky🤡 about me is that in high school I would sometimes (often) (daily) write Tori Amos lyrics on the chalkboard (yes, I said CHALK) before class, really just to share the art with the other students, you know, spread the gospel to the girls. It was totally not obnoxious and I’m sure everyone was into it… Anyway, full circle moment, this is coming up THIS SUNDAY!! Snag a ticket in my bio and come watch Tori videos and laugh and cry with me and other certified Tori freaks @hurrrjurrr and @queerpunkdisco at @whammyanalogmedia!! 💕 (PS, one of my AOL screen names was absolutely BlissOfAn0thrknd, fml)
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Lesbian Visibility Day always sneaks up on me, which is fine because so did lesbianism and that worked out great! It’s fun to tell stories about how I should have known and talk about roots, but I genuinely had no idea I was different in that specific way because I was always sorta different (in the NOT cool way) and then the 90s came and it was kinda cool to be different, so I will admit I think I just thought I was cool?? But if you look at this photo from a BBQ at my cousin’s house in like 1999, I believe around the time I was starting to come out to my friends, you will notice I am wearing what I thought was a pretty hip thermal top, which was the style of the time and a staple of lesbian fashion to this day, but it is actually one of those silky shiny lady thermals my mom got me from JC Penney to go on my school trip to the Clinton inauguration sophomore year. I didn’t really know the difference because I didn’t know anything about cold weather attire (terminal L.A. brain) or being a lesbian yet!! All these years later, I am still bad at keeping up with current fashions, but I know a lot about being a d*ke, and as most of you know it’s my top 3 fav thing ever. I am so so grateful that this gay life chose me and I keep choosing it. I love being a lesbian and having lots of lesbian friends, and I love all lesbians, that’s it!! Happy #lesbianvisibilityday!

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - At a party recently, someone asked Jo if they come to all of my performances. They said yes, and described themselves as my “Dance Mom” which is very funny, but also I would not have guessed that they knew about the show Dance Moms if you had asked me.

Jo, two things among many I love about you are that you often surprise me even when the answer is unsurprising, and you let me be the funny one in public most of the time, except when it comes time to roast me, when you really just cut loose. 

Not to be obnoxious, but also recently, we were at a diner and the young gay server said we were so cute because we were holding hands across the table. I wondered if he thought we were a new couple. It suddenly felt important to me that he know we aren’t, and that such things are possible over a decade down the line, because I didn’t know that before, and I wish I had. I am so grateful I do now.

Jo, two more things I love about you are that you hold my hand a lot, and whenever I’m walking very closely behind you, my boob crashing into your back un-erotically as you are trying to navigate us to our destination, you say “why are you walking so close to me?” even though, or I guess I kinda hope because, you know I will say “I like to be very close to you! I wish I could just walk inside your skin!” And then you call me a creep, and we laugh. 

My love, thank you for holding me up somehow more than ever this past year, when I was so scared to step on stage I wanted to run, when I was literally falling over with grief. Sorry to say, but you kind of HAVE been letting me walk inside you, or maybe the other way around, but in any event, I couldn’t have stood at all without your strength, of course, but most of all the playfulness of our love. You add meaning to every moment of the day for me. Happy Valentine’s Day, I love you so! 💕💫

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - During this scene, Jo leaned over and said “you’re MY strawberry giggle” and now I will remember it for the rest of my life. 

One of the things we used to talk about a lot when we first met was songs that made us cry as kids, either because they seemed scary or because they just made us really sad even though we didn’t have the words or experiences to truly understand why yet. Long Long Time by Linda Ronstadt was always one of mine. So, naturally, this episode took me all the way DOWN in so many ways lol. Do you have one?

Side note: if you’re not watching The Last Of Us cuz it’s not your thing, you could still watch episode 3 (Long, Long Time) because it stands alone imo.

Side note 2: I feel I owe an update, and it’s that I’m grieving for so many people and things but trying to do life stuff, which makes me feel even more broken, but also there are things that keep me just afloat, and a lot of you are part of that and I thank you ♥️

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - I don’t have a map–paper, digital, celestial–that has a single road that doesn’t lead back to Jenny. Before I knew her, I didn’t know it was not only ok to be unique, but was preferable. No children’s book or song could reassure me of this like the sight of her at freshman orientation with her cropped, bleached hair and oversized red satin shirt. We were 14 and no one I knew looked like that, nor anyone in the group of girls whose rapt attention she held as she spoke, smiling warmly. 

I wasn’t ready. I didn’t seek her friendship for a whole year. I don’t remember how it happened, but it was certainly based on mutual roasting. She was a brilliant artist, accomplished student, beautiful, magnetic, but she never took herself too seriously. As a friend, Jenny never held back from telling you exactly what she thought, but she was also incredibly nurturing. 

I’m trying so desperately not to make this about me, but grief does that, you know? And the plain fact is that there is no me without her. I have over the years come to joyfully accept the knowledge that the inverse isn’t true, because there has to be people who are naturally one of a kind, no bullshit, to teach the rest of us how to at least try. She taught me.

What was supposed to happen was whatever put us on a path of mostly texting on special occasions, birthdays, a random thought or meme, was going to melt away. Because it’s not just that the roads lead back to her–she’s been in every mile marker, and a friendship like ours is a destination. We are maybe 45 years old and we are laughing on porches how we used to laugh on rooftops. We go on vacation together. I have inside jokes about her with her son, Paul. She says something bitingly hilariously true about me at my wedding. And it’s teen girl friendship, the purest, most potent, perfect thing in the world, all over again except we are grown enough to know not to turn away when things get hard. Ok, maybe it wasn’t going to be THAT easy, but it was going to happen for sure, I know.

Jennifer, my heart is completely broken that I won’t get to you again this time. I love you and you are more magical than I can write, but I’ll keep trying.

She taught me.

What was supposed to happen was whatever put us on a path of mostly texting on special occasions, birthdays, a random thought or meme, was going to melt away. Because it’s not just that the roads lead back to her–she’s been in every mile marker, and a friendship like ours is a destination. We are maybe 45 years old and we are laughing on porches how we used to laugh on rooftops. We go on vacation together. I have inside jokes about her with her son, Paul. She says something bitingly hilariously true about me at my wedding. And it’s teen girl friendship, the purest, most potent, perfect thing in the world, all over again except we are grown enough to know not to turn away when things get hard. Ok, maybe it wasn’t going to be THAT easy, but it was going to happen for sure, I know.

Jennifer, my heart is completely broken that I won’t get to you again this time. I love you and you are more magical than I can write, but I’ll keep trying.
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - I don’t have a map–paper, digital, celestial–that has a single road that doesn’t lead back to Jenny. Before I knew her, I didn’t know it was not only ok to be unique, but was preferable. No children’s book or song could reassure me of this like the sight of her at freshman orientation with her cropped, bleached hair and oversized red satin shirt. We were 14 and no one I knew looked like that, nor anyone in the group of girls whose rapt attention she held as she spoke, smiling warmly. 

I wasn’t ready. I didn’t seek her friendship for a whole year. I don’t remember how it happened, but it was certainly based on mutual roasting. She was a brilliant artist, accomplished student, beautiful, magnetic, but she never took herself too seriously. As a friend, Jenny never held back from telling you exactly what she thought, but she was also incredibly nurturing.

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - This is me with my Uncle Adrian (Nino), Grandma, grandpa (Poppo) at the Apple Farm in San Luis Obispo in the early 90s. This trip was a happy, complicated family tradition. Complicated for me because I loved it, but there was part of me that felt out of place all the time, everywhere. I didn’t know what depression was or what it meant to feel this way so young, so it was confusing to be with people I loved so much and who I was sure loved me yet be so sad and lonely a lot of the time.

I didn’t often feel like I truly belonged to anyone or anything until much later, when I started building familial friendships, particularly queer ones. 

But I am part of my family of origin, and they are part of me. My Nino (who was also my godfather) passed away suddenly a month ago. The day this happened, my whole immediate family and more were at my aunt’s house for two days, nearly around the clock. When I left to run some errands, I found myself rushing back and paused for a moment, because there wasn’t really a rush. Plenty of people were there to be with my aunt. But, I realized, I longed for them. I longed to be near them, I still do after all this time and all the necessary, often exhilarating, and just as often heartbreaking change that comes with growing up. This is because of who they are as individuals but also because of the family they built together, the home there.

My Nino was always joking around, but he was sweet and sentimental too. I will miss him as I miss my Poppo being silly and giving us little gifts we maybe didn’t deserve, and my grandma playing straight man to all these antics because, after all, someone had to, but she always gave the warmest hugs. 

Feels crazy to think no one in this photo is here anymore except me, but I have plans to see my family tonight and I am excited for that, so I guess in that way, in the longing and the comfort, they actually are.
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Call me lazy if you want, but I don’t have a costume for tonight, and restricting my precious calves is about as spooky as I can bear at the moment! #femmefriday

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - Imagine being a 20-something bro with AirPods in at the Vegas buffet actually being the one cutting the crab leg line then having the nerve to accuse an innocent middle-aged female comedian with gorgeous curls of trying to cut you because she quickly reached backward for some lemon wedges?! He should be ashamed, not me! And yet.
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - When I went to see Tori in June, I realized I’m in desperate need of a Tori friend who is exactly on my level. Cuz I have a lot of friends who like and even love her music, but they don’t wanna like nerd out on it. Then I’ll go to shows and realize that even though I consider myself a superfan, I am actually not anywhere near the level of some of those freaks following her from city to city and analyzing her body language loudly behind me. I’d also like to quell the rumors swirling that CG (while timeless and perfect) is my favorite Tori song. It’s just the easiest to find at karaoke that won’t bum everyone out! What is your fav album track and b-side? Mine are a tie between Caught A Lite Sneeze and Tear In Your Hand (album) and Honey for the b-side, which I realize is a bit basic, but the body wants what it wants (to cry in public).
Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - MEME UPDATE: Some  #partygirlofacertainage things change, some things stay the same, and some I guess are the same but feel different. Most news on the aging front as always is bleak (p sure I have a bald spot in my bangs??) but that thing is happening at…my…new age…that happened in my thirties where I expected to feel different (better) like everyone promised right away but it took a second. All of a sudden things from my early 30s that seemed normal or whatever seem so stupid now. And I guess part of growing up is just a race to see how quickly you start to find your former self a fucking tool. Doing pretty great on that part!

Amanda-Faye Jimenez Instagram - It’s L.A. PRIDE WEEKEND #femmefriday!! Hope all who celebrate have a wonderful day/weekend/month. My biggest tip for femmes who feel like they don’t get easily clocked as queer and would like to is that if you project fun, fabulousity, and flamboyance whenever possible and hang out with a lot of other queer people who love you and make you feel most like yourself, you’ll rarely feel invisible to anyone that matters. Be gay, do crime, be safe, love u!! 🥂💅🏽🎉🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 1.8K Likes - “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head” was released 20 years ago (!!) this week, which means it’s also a very important 20th anniversary for me: finding my first gay pop diva as an adult. Obviously I loved Madonna, Janet, and Cyndi growing up, but becoming a Kylie Minogue fan was so completely unexpected to me at that time, a riot grrrl/Toriphile who mostly liked music that made me want to rage or cry (which is a very good thing too!). I don’t really know how to write about music, so I won’t try, but CGYOOMH is just such an absolutely perfect song, and Fever is a perfect album from start to finish, every song is a 100% banger, and it opened a new (or new again) world to me of wanting to dance and feel sexy and iconic. Like, I really don’t know how a tiny Australian pop princess made a fat Pasadena, CA femme lesbian in her thrifted men’s slacks era feel positively oozing with raw sexuality just the way she was, but Kylie did that for me. What a time! What a gift! #femmefriday #cgyoomh20 #kyliefever

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 1.7K Likes - I think about this meme so much and then I never repost it because I’m like, not in the mood to write a caveat about how of course you shouldn’t demand that people have sex with you, even comedically, and you shouldn’t objectify people without their consent, and, perhaps most importantly, I genuinely enjoy all sizes of titties. But then I think about big titty butches and think of the meme again and want to post it again so I’m doing that now. I hope titties of all gender expressions know how loved they are today 🥰

I want to murder you and wear you like a suit, but then I would miss you too much” but I said it today again, so maybe I’ll start from here.

1. Us in Puerto Vallarta on my Drag Race prize trip (thanks Mama Ru!) in April this year
2. Us in SF partying hard in like 2008 shortly after we started dating

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - Yesterday I sat in bed for hours marveling at what a good mood I was in and thinking how grateful I am for my new therapist and that I think my new antidepressants are working…and promptly forgot to take that morning’s dose. Anyways, here is a selfie I took because I’m experimenting with existence again   swipe for what I’m up to. REALLY EXCITED (terrified, horror-stricken, grateful [that word again]) to get back on stage for the first time in over 6 months starting in June!! I hope you are doing ok, even though.

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - Truthfully, it took a lot out of me to resist the urge to return briefly to meme form and not simply make one about my recent hysterectomy, but luckily for you: 

1. I saw Challengers, which blew my MIND!!
2. It’s #femmefriday
3. The blue eye shadow and red lip thing that’s happening everywhere 👄
4. I started a new antidepressant after almost 3 years being absolutely ridden raw by major depressive disorder and prrrettty serious anxiety, and it is helping, I think, but it has not made me any less prone to eating ill-advised cheeses. 
5. So yeah, I had surgery and for the very first time, for a little while, I felt completely embodied, totally human, like the woman I’ve been wanting to be my whole life, in fact, and I can’t talk about that much without crying, so it’s probably an essay, not a meme *eyeroll, jackoff motion*

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - I’m being told there are only a few hot tickets left for the @dopaminebooksla fundraiser/performance/dinner/extravaganza THIS SUNDAY @juniorhighla and I would really love it if you specifically would snag one and come! There’s going to be: performances (I know I said that), dinner (yeah), drinks, custom literary fragrance, curated genius artist grab bag raffle, and VERY IMPORTANTLY, you can buy the Dopazine sampler in which my inclusion among so many incredible writers is absolutely mind blowing to me!! Also, this is I guess my super informal announcement that I’m finally writing that book you all* have been clamoring** for with Michelle and Beth as my Dopadoulas and I have to pinch myself every single day because of it. I’m so so excited about all the work Dopamine is going to be publishing and would love to see you Sunday at the big debut!

*10 or so ppl

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - Obviously there were so many things that happened in the episode that couldn’t make it to tv in order to focus on the Queens and the competition. I still have so much to say about the experience filming Drag Race as well as what happened after the show aired, so stay tuned for that (if you want, idfk!) but I wanted to say a special thanks to my fellow lesbian makeover contestants @angieevansbutch and @lisachangadveja 😍😭

One of the things you didn’t get to see is how much fun we had filming together and of course the bts times in the trailer getting to know each other and the “waaait what are we doing again??” moments. I was so scared to put myself out there like this for a lot of reasons, but the first day in the parking lot when I saw Angie, who I’ve known for over a decade just from being a dyke about town in the L.A.-area, I was so relieved. It reminded me that in addition to queer fam, who we were absolutely among in all ways during filming - from our Queens to producers to PAs, everyone was so incredible to us - lesbian community specifically is home, instant family. Sorry to be dramatic, but none of us had ever done anything like this before and when it was over I truly felt like a changed person on a cellular level (for like 3 weeks lol) and I’ll be bonded with these two amazing women over that for the rest of my life! 

In addition to being a barista (however you want to say it) and co-owner of @wideeyesopenpalms, Angie is a beloved pillar of the Long Beach community, musician, and (duh) performer. Lisa is seriously one of the kindest people I’ve ever met and was incredible at pep talks, so her non-profit background was no surprise, but I loved learning that she’s a dyke on a bike aka motorcycle enthusiast and also a writer of children’s books, her most recent being “Chang’s Favorite Fruit.” And now, I feel so insanely lucky to call these two my Drag Sisters 4-Ever!

Special thanks to our producers Frankie @frankiehalleman and Julio @goforjsauce, who literally seemed to be doing 500 things but were always there when we needed them somehow?? Loved getting to know and hanging with both of you!

I still have so much to say about the experience filming Drag Race as well as what happened after the show aired, so stay tuned for that (if you want, idfk!) but I wanted to say a special thanks to my fellow lesbian makeover contestants @angieevansbutch and @lisachangadveja 😍😭 One of the things you didn’t get to see is how much fun we had filming together and of course the bts times in the trailer getting to know each other and the “waaait what are we doing again??” moments. I was so scared to put myself out there like this for a lot of reasons, but the first day in the parking lot when I saw Angie, who I’ve known for over a decade just from being a dyke about town in the L.A.-area, I was so relieved. It reminded me that in addition to queer fam, who we were absolutely among in all ways during filming – from our Queens to producers to PAs, everyone was so incredible to us – lesbian community specifically is home, instant family. Sorry to be dramatic, but none of us had ever done anything like this before and when it was over I truly felt like a changed person on a cellular level (for like 3 weeks lol) and I’ll be bonded with these two amazing women over that for the rest of my life! In addition to being a barista (however you want to say it) and co-owner of @wideeyesopenpalms, Angie is a beloved pillar of the Long Beach community, musician, and (duh) performer. Lisa is seriously one of the kindest people I’ve ever met and was incredible at pep talks, so her non-profit background was no surprise, but I loved learning that she’s a dyke on a bike aka motorcycle enthusiast and also a writer of children’s books, her most recent being “Chang’s Favorite Fruit.” And now, I feel so insanely lucky to call these two my Drag Sisters 4-Ever! Special thanks to our producers Frankie @frankiehalleman and Julio @goforjsauce, who literally seemed to be doing 500 things but were always there when we needed them somehow?? Loved getting to know and hanging with both of you! 🩷 @jimbothedragclown @thekandymuse @jessicawild

Maybe the answer is that state-sanctioned marriage shouldn’t be one of the only things that provides financial, medical, and social stability for some of us 🤔🤔🤔 OH WELL, BACK TO JOKES!

It was totally not obnoxious and I’m sure everyone was into it… Anyway, full circle moment, this is coming up THIS SUNDAY!! Snag a ticket in my bio and come watch Tori videos and laugh and cry with me and other certified Tori freaks @hurrrjurrr and @queerpunkdisco at @whammyanalogmedia!! 💕 (PS, one of my AOL screen names was absolutely BlissOfAn0thrknd, fml)

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - Lesbian Visibility Day always sneaks up on me, which is fine because so did lesbianism and that worked out great! It’s fun to tell stories about how I should have known and talk about roots, but I genuinely had no idea I was different in that specific way because I was always sorta different (in the NOT cool way) and then the 90s came and it was kinda cool to be different, so I will admit I think I just thought I was cool?? But if you look at this photo from a BBQ at my cousin’s house in like 1999, I believe around the time I was starting to come out to my friends, you will notice I am wearing what I thought was a pretty hip thermal top, which was the style of the time and a staple of lesbian fashion to this day, but it is actually one of those silky shiny lady thermals my mom got me from JC Penney to go on my school trip to the Clinton inauguration sophomore year. I didn’t really know the difference because I didn’t know anything about cold weather attire (terminal L.A. brain) or being a lesbian yet!! All these years later, I am still bad at keeping up with current fashions, but I know a lot about being a d*ke, and as most of you know it’s my top 3 fav thing ever. I am so so grateful that this gay life chose me and I keep choosing it. I love being a lesbian and having lots of lesbian friends, and I love all lesbians, that’s it!! Happy #lesbianvisibilityday!

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - At a party recently, someone asked Jo if they come to all of my performances. They said yes, and described themselves as my “Dance Mom” which is very funny, but also I would not have guessed that they knew about the show Dance Moms if you had asked me.

Jo, two things among many I love about you are that you often surprise me even when the answer is unsurprising, and you let me be the funny one in public most of the time, except when it comes time to roast me, when you really just cut loose. 

Not to be obnoxious, but also recently, we were at a diner and the young gay server said we were so cute because we were holding hands across the table. I wondered if he thought we were a new couple. It suddenly felt important to me that he know we aren’t, and that such things are possible over a decade down the line, because I didn’t know that before, and I wish I had. I am so grateful I do now.

Jo, two more things I love about you are that you hold my hand a lot, and whenever I’m walking very closely behind you, my boob crashing into your back un-erotically as you are trying to navigate us to our destination, you say “why are you walking so close to me?” even though, or I guess I kinda hope because, you know I will say “I like to be very close to you! I wish I could just walk inside your skin!” And then you call me a creep, and we laugh. 

My love, thank you for holding me up somehow more than ever this past year, when I was so scared to step on stage I wanted to run, when I was literally falling over with grief. Sorry to say, but you kind of HAVE been letting me walk inside you, or maybe the other way around, but in any event, I couldn’t have stood at all without your strength, of course, but most of all the playfulness of our love. You add meaning to every moment of the day for me. Happy Valentine’s Day, I love you so! 💕💫

You add meaning to every moment of the day for me. Happy Valentine’s Day, I love you so! 💕💫

Caption : At a party recently, someone asked Jo if they come to all of my performances. They said yes, and described themselves as my “Dance Mom” which is very funny, but also I would not have guessed that they knew about the show Dance Moms if you had asked me. Jo, two things among many I love about you are that you often surprise me even when the answer is unsurprising, and you let me be the funny one in public most of the time, except when it comes time to roast me, when you really just cut loose. Not to be obnoxious, but also recently, we were at a diner and the young gay server said we were so cute because we were holding hands across the table. I wondered if he thought we were a new couple. It suddenly felt important to me that he know we aren’t, and that such things are possible over a decade down the line, because I didn’t know that before, and I wish I had. I am so grateful I do now. Jo, two more things I love about you are that you hold my hand a lot, and whenever I’m walking very closely behind you, my boob crashing into your back un-erotically as you are trying to navigate us to our destination, you say “why are you walking so close to me?” even though, or I guess I kinda hope because, you know I will say “I like to be very close to you! I wish I could just walk inside your skin!” And then you call me a creep, and we laugh. My love, thank you for holding me up somehow more than ever this past year, when I was so scared to step on stage I wanted to run, when I was literally falling over with grief. Sorry to say, but you kind of HAVE been letting me walk inside you, or maybe the other way around, but in any event, I couldn’t have stood at all without your strength, of course, but most of all the playfulness of our love. You add meaning to every moment of the day for me. Happy Valentine’s Day, I love you so! 💕💫

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - During this scene, Jo leaned over and said “you’re MY strawberry giggle” and now I will remember it for the rest of my life. 

One of the things we used to talk about a lot when we first met was songs that made us cry as kids, either because they seemed scary or because they just made us really sad even though we didn’t have the words or experiences to truly understand why yet. Long Long Time by Linda Ronstadt was always one of mine. So, naturally, this episode took me all the way DOWN in so many ways lol. Do you have one?

Side note: if you’re not watching The Last Of Us cuz it’s not your thing, you could still watch episode 3 (Long, Long Time) because it stands alone imo.

Side note 2: I feel I owe an update, and it’s that I’m grieving for so many people and things but trying to do life stuff, which makes me feel even more broken, but also there are things that keep me just afloat, and a lot of you are part of that and I thank you ♥️

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - I don’t have a map–paper, digital, celestial–that has a single road that doesn’t lead back to Jenny. Before I knew her, I didn’t know it was not only ok to be unique, but was preferable. No children’s book or song could reassure me of this like the sight of her at freshman orientation with her cropped, bleached hair and oversized red satin shirt. We were 14 and no one I knew looked like that, nor anyone in the group of girls whose rapt attention she held as she spoke, smiling warmly. 

I wasn’t ready. I didn’t seek her friendship for a whole year. I don’t remember how it happened, but it was certainly based on mutual roasting. She was a brilliant artist, accomplished student, beautiful, magnetic, but she never took herself too seriously. As a friend, Jenny never held back from telling you exactly what she thought, but she was also incredibly nurturing. 

I’m trying so desperately not to make this about me, but grief does that, you know? And the plain fact is that there is no me without her. I have over the years come to joyfully accept the knowledge that the inverse isn’t true, because there has to be people who are naturally one of a kind, no bullshit, to teach the rest of us how to at least try. She taught me.

What was supposed to happen was whatever put us on a path of mostly texting on special occasions, birthdays, a random thought or meme, was going to melt away. Because it’s not just that the roads lead back to her–she’s been in every mile marker, and a friendship like ours is a destination. We are maybe 45 years old and we are laughing on porches how we used to laugh on rooftops. We go on vacation together. I have inside jokes about her with her son, Paul. She says something bitingly hilariously true about me at my wedding. And it’s teen girl friendship, the purest, most potent, perfect thing in the world, all over again except we are grown enough to know not to turn away when things get hard. Ok, maybe it wasn’t going to be THAT easy, but it was going to happen for sure, I know.

Jennifer, my heart is completely broken that I won’t get to you again this time. I love you and you are more magical than I can write, but I’ll keep trying.

Before I knew her, I didn’t know it was not only ok to be unique, but was preferable. No children’s book or song could reassure me of this like the sight of her at freshman orientation with her cropped, bleached hair and oversized red satin shirt. We were 14 and no one I knew looked like that, nor anyone in the group of girls whose rapt attention she held as she spoke, smiling warmly. 

I wasn’t ready. I didn’t seek her friendship for a whole year. I don’t remember how it happened, but it was certainly based on mutual roasting. She was a brilliant artist, accomplished student, beautiful, magnetic, but she never took herself too seriously. As a friend, Jenny never held back from telling you exactly what she thought, but she was also incredibly nurturing. 

I’m trying so desperately not to make this about me, but grief does that, you know? And the plain fact is that there is no me without her. I have over the years come to joyfully accept the knowledge that the inverse isn’t true, because there has to be people who are naturally one of a kind, no bullshit, to teach the rest of us how to at least try. She taught me.

What was supposed to happen was whatever put us on a path of mostly texting on special occasions, birthdays, a random thought or meme, was going to melt away. Because it’s not just that the roads lead back to her–she’s been in every mile marker, and a friendship like ours is a destination. We are maybe 45 years old and we are laughing on porches how we used to laugh on rooftops. We go on vacation together. I have inside jokes about her with her son, Paul. She says something bitingly hilariously true about me at my wedding. And it’s teen girl friendship, the purest, most potent, perfect thing in the world, all over again except we are grown enough to know not to turn away when things get hard. Ok, maybe it wasn’t going to be THAT easy, but it was going to happen for sure, I know.

Jennifer, my heart is completely broken that I won’t get to you again this time. I love you and you are more magical than I can write, but I’ll keep trying.

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - This is me with my Uncle Adrian (Nino), Grandma, grandpa (Poppo) at the Apple Farm in San Luis Obispo in the early 90s. This trip was a happy, complicated family tradition. Complicated for me because I loved it, but there was part of me that felt out of place all the time, everywhere. I didn’t know what depression was or what it meant to feel this way so young, so it was confusing to be with people I loved so much and who I was sure loved me yet be so sad and lonely a lot of the time.

I didn’t often feel like I truly belonged to anyone or anything until much later, when I started building familial friendships, particularly queer ones. 

But I am part of my family of origin, and they are part of me. My Nino (who was also my godfather) passed away suddenly a month ago. The day this happened, my whole immediate family and more were at my aunt’s house for two days, nearly around the clock. When I left to run some errands, I found myself rushing back and paused for a moment, because there wasn’t really a rush. Plenty of people were there to be with my aunt. But, I realized, I longed for them. I longed to be near them, I still do after all this time and all the necessary, often exhilarating, and just as often heartbreaking change that comes with growing up. This is because of who they are as individuals but also because of the family they built together, the home there.

My Nino was always joking around, but he was sweet and sentimental too. I will miss him as I miss my Poppo being silly and giving us little gifts we maybe didn’t deserve, and my grandma playing straight man to all these antics because, after all, someone had to, but she always gave the warmest hugs. 

Feels crazy to think no one in this photo is here anymore except me, but I have plans to see my family tonight and I am excited for that, so I guess in that way, in the longing and the comfort, they actually are.

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - When I went to see Tori in June, I realized I’m in desperate need of a Tori friend who is exactly on my level. Cuz I have a lot of friends who like and even love her music, but they don’t wanna like nerd out on it. Then I’ll go to shows and realize that even though I consider myself a superfan, I am actually not anywhere near the level of some of those freaks following her from city to city and analyzing her body language loudly behind me. I’d also like to quell the rumors swirling that CG (while timeless and perfect) is my favorite Tori song. It’s just the easiest to find at karaoke that won’t bum everyone out! What is your fav album track and b-side? Mine are a tie between Caught A Lite Sneeze and Tear In Your Hand (album) and Honey for the b-side, which I realize is a bit basic, but the body wants what it wants (to cry in public).

Mine are a tie between Caught A Lite Sneeze and Tear In Your Hand (album) and Honey for the b-side, which I realize is a bit basic, but the body wants what it wants (to cry in public).

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - MEME UPDATE: Some  #partygirlofacertainage things change, some things stay the same, and some I guess are the same but feel different. Most news on the aging front as always is bleak (p sure I have a bald spot in my bangs??) but that thing is happening at…my…new age…that happened in my thirties where I expected to feel different (better) like everyone promised right away but it took a second. All of a sudden things from my early 30s that seemed normal or whatever seem so stupid now. And I guess part of growing up is just a race to see how quickly you start to find your former self a fucking tool. Doing pretty great on that part!

Ayiyi, the perils of being a #buttondownfemme

Amanda-Faye Jimenez - 3 Likes - It’s L.A. PRIDE WEEKEND #femmefriday!! Hope all who celebrate have a wonderful day/weekend/month. My biggest tip for femmes who feel like they don’t get easily clocked as queer and would like to is that if you project fun, fabulousity, and flamboyance whenever possible and hang out with a lot of other queer people who love you and make you feel most like yourself, you’ll rarely feel invisible to anyone that matters. Be gay, do crime, be safe, love u!! 🥂💅🏽🎉🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
