I'm writing a sequel to my Torksmith fic and I'm trying to remember something that happened early in the series where I think Peter Tork was in the studio and the producers were not nice to him or said something unkind about his singing ability and Peter immediately ran to Mike about it, who was like, "THEY SAID WHAT" and stood up for him. Did I make that up in my head? Something like that happened, right?
I'm going through my Monkees Day-by-Day book to get more details about stuff that was going on during this period, but I don't know if that will be captured in it or not.
Mike's like, I never liked him, but of course I drove to the airport to pick him up and let him live in my house but I never LIKED him, jeez.
The airport-pickup story (and this was months after Peter had moved in with Mike and Phyllis during the filming of the pilot; after filming, he went back to New York):

eveeyones got it wrong your mid 20s arent for going to the club or partying or picking up new crafts. your 20s are for discovering how much more autistic you are than you thought you were in high school

Chappell Roan not playing about her boundaries and personal safety and putting her foot down and yelling "shut the fuck up" at rude paparazzi during the VMAs red carpet is healing something in me truly. That is a lesbian woman refusing to act all grateful and bashful at being allowed space, she is owning the space for which she has worked over a decade and assertively setting her boundaries and giving zero fucks about whose ego she bruises on the way because only people who take advantage of you take offense when you set boundaries and I am enjoying every second of it
