Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for October 20, 2022

Nice to see Phoebe’s parents as the focus of a strip for once.

Nothing says “I love you!” like beating video games.

She’s good at beating that level, and only that level. She has yet to get past the tutorial without assistance.

So she’s a farming sim fan? Which one?

Several of my best friends grow actual factual vegetables. Some for fun some for monetary profit… including some who are in it for both.

And I can see why Phoebe left the room.

This is sweet, I wish I knew what they’re talking about.

1. Goodnight everybody!

2. Got Unicornado today. First time I picked up a volume from the comic shop rather than Amazon.

“Never met a Space Invader I could not kick butt against.”

You sweet talker you…

You know I love the taste of beets but I was once freaked out how they seemed so bloody and it put scary images in my head and I couldn’t enjoy it fully.

Now I see that the juice is more purple with hints of pink than blood.

Some things were totally different for me growing up than now and not even I always knew what would upset me.

I do wonder if beet juice has ever been used for the artificial blood in movies though?.

Oh, me too! Farming games are surprisingly fun.

“Mobile games aren’t REAL games! Men are just BETTER than girls at games! This strip is dumb forced diversity woke trash! Warba-warba-warba!” That’s for any gamergaters who felt triggered.

Yep, in a boss battle Phoebe’s mom can’t be beet!

They were made for each other!

Do Phoebe’s parents have names?

When she plays that game, I bet the screen turns red!

We really need some flashbacks about how these two first met.

Farming beets—If wonder if Dwight from THE OFFICE gave her tips.

They are such a cute couple. :D

So… she’s Dwight Schrute?

I like that Phoebe’s parents have such mutual respect for each other and seem very much into each other.

Nice to see the Beat Farmers getting a shout out.

They need to hang out with Calvin’s parents and teach them that being an adult doesn’t have to mean no more fun…

doesnt christie marx work on that game?
