growing up poor then achieving relative financial stability in adulthood really does affect your mental state forever. like wdym i cannot but myself new shoes when mine are falling apart without feeling an insane amount of guilt

Loooove that everyone else is Psych gets the 'normal in comparison' treatment because of Shawn.

Juliet? Goes undercover so well she wears her outfits to the precinct. Broke some girl's nose undercover. Threw a surprise party for Lassie and invited only criminals.

Lassiter? Keeps an adress book of past arrests to 'check up on them'. Massive gun nerd. Keeps a board of criminals pasted up in his house. His hobbies outside of work are guns and civil war reenactment (so basically the same stuff he does at work).

Chief Vick? Made Shawn get her a babysitter and told him he couldn't work any cases until he did. Hired a psychic to work for the police. Is that even legal? Had the most childish fight with her sister in front of her subordinates.

Gus? Never wants to let anyone use his work phone even when they are actively in mortal danger. Put Shawn on his insurance plan. Never gets over anything ever. He's a sympathetic crier. He doesn't see his friend for like almost a decade and immediately jumps into lying to the police with him.

they were certainly monkeying around

It is kinda insane how wild the Monkees are when you look into it. They were hired for a TV show but started an internal revolution where they kicked out their music supervisor to have control of their own music. They made a movie deconstructing their image and Hollywood in general. Their music spanned several genres including some very experimental stuff that would influence later music. They met and befriended the Beatles. They wrote and/or directed some of their episodes. One of them is the son of the woman who invented liquid paper (white-out) and then he would go on to basically invent MTV before he sold the concept to those who made MTV. They have some of the first music videos. They fucked. One of them even was known for his orgies. They sometimes hated each other but still loved each other as brothers. There is an FBI file on them allegedly spreading communist and anti-american propaganda at their concerts. They had a song that had to have its lyrics changed because it was too intensely political, even alluding to JFK’s assassination not being done by Lee Harvey Oswald in 1969. Their TV show was revolutionary in structure and content. Disney stars and boy bands would not exist without them. They had Jimi Hendrix open for them. One of them was a member of the Hollywood vampires. And that isn’t even all.

And yet most people don’t take them seriously.
