Reblogging this because it needs to be SEEN
Mike: *locks Micky in the Monkeemobile* Act like a child, get treated like a child.
Micky: What? Isn't it illegal to leave a child locked in a car?! MIKE!
“There are no laws, there are no rules. Just grab your friend and love them.” -Jim Morrison
“An on-stage exchange of glances between Mike and Micky.”
Flip, 1968
Mike: *preening in front of mirror* wow I need to trim these split ends!
Micky: guess we’ll have to go to the barber.
Mike: *taking off his hat to trim the puffball on the end* why would we do that?
Mike: *sauntering in from who knows where* grass needs cut
Davy: What grass???
Micky: it’s Peter’s day
Peter: aww no! *peter drags his feet to get scissors from the counter sighing as he goes outside*
Davy: *runs to window to watch Peter trim the four blades of grass poking up in the sidewalk crack in front of their pad* WHAT GRASS?!?!
The Monkees drinking boba tea
Micky: barely any tea, just basically a cup of pearls. He giggles nearly every time he takes a drink
Davy: orders a simple brown sugar and vanilla milk tea and rests the straw against his lips as he talks with his sunglasses pushed up on his head, looking for all the world like a pin up.
Peter: mixing all the flavors together “I’m going to make a rainbow!” Shakes it up. “Oh well now it’s just brown :(.”
Mike: takes one sip. “That’s disgusting.” Pours the rest in Micky’s overflowing cup.
tw: meantions of alcohol and addiction
Mike used to drink. It was a problem. It was a habit he picked up from his dad that got worse after moving to California. before he met the guys, he was on his own, struggling and homeless. He didn’t drink constantly, rather when things were going bad, he’d stay out until the bar closed.
After the Monkees all moved in together, he tried to hide it, but they caught on pretty quick. Davy had sat him down and said that this was something he didn’t have to (and shouldn’t) face alone. They helped get into a support group and found that it was easier to substitute the alcohol for something else whenever Mike wanted it. Coke-a-Cola seemed to do the trick. That’s how the Monkees came to having Coke in the house at all times. Some weeks they would sacrifice groceries to buy it because Mike being healthy was the most important thing to them.
Now they are all sworn off of alcohol. None of them drink. Sometimes Mike feels like falling into old habits, especially after a harrowing adventure, but he looks around at the guys to remind himself he’s not in that place anymore, he is okay and doesn’t need the old habits, he has new ones. Then he’ll sit down and noodle on the guitar or play around with the boys. He knows they all have each other’s backs.
Anyone know how to watch “Keep off My Grass”?!?!
Hey everyone. I’m desperately trying to find out how to watch the 1972 comedy film Keep off My Grass. Does anyone know where/how I can watch it?!?!?
I’m desperate.
[C.C. Peter: I thought you did great, by the way. I wouldn’t worry about it. if s/he wants to be a sour puss, s/he’s just going to be a sour puss. Mike: It was good… That’s my girl.]
We see you two. 😏
im sorry your what
monkee doodles and unfinished stuff that's been rotting in my drafts for months enjoy!!
Happy monkee monday to all who celebrate
Happy monkee monday!! Here's a redraw of one of my favourite photos of them
Lol!!!
average the monkees episode:
mike: guys we need to save the day from this bad guys!
davy: I've just met a girl and I'm sure she's the love of my life!
micky and peter's subplot:
In all my years of watching the Halloween remake by Rob Zombie, I never knew that Micky Dolenz made a small cameo!😭
I'm the same height as Davy and I'm able to look at him in the eye without trouble😈
Enjoy the video
The height difference is soooo cute🥹I need a drink..
🎶🚗 all aboard the Monkee Mobile! 🙈
So The Chaperone is my fav ep in part because of the Dolenzmith undercurrents of Mike seeming pretty smitten/teasing the whole ep
But I also like it because it feels like homage to Some Like it Hot...and is still Dolenzmithy in the way it does that:
-Musician(s) needing to dress up as women
-Micky having a similar outfit/style that Jerry/Daphne has at one point
Also having a similar personality of being a rough-around-the-edges 'for a lady' kind of 'girl' that makes the rich older man obsessed.
-Notable: this sparkly-dress is also the outfit both get engaged in.
-also notable that both specifically call the respective older man 'fresh' at least once for making physical advances.
so the DIFFERENCE?
At the end, with the potential happily ever after-- Jerry calls into question sailing off together. He rips off his own wig and declares he's a man. Osgood doesn't give a fuck and they potentially stay married, rich and happy.
Meanwhile, the one who puts a stop to Micky's 'sailing away together' daydream is Mike saying 'Micky will you please tell him?'
And it's Vandenberg who rips off Micky's wig.
And Mike who Micky's with after the 'reveal'.
Like okay.
me: hm why do we give mike a lot of trauma ?
mike: flinches at everything
Good lord these HOMOS
