Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for August 05, 2023

Me when the occasional outage on the net happens.

It can also run down the battery.

This is why when I got a new computer, I refused to get one that could only connect to the internet through wifi.

Easily amused.

This is why I always make sure I have phone games that can be played off-line.

If the big solar flare ever hits, most of the casualties will be people going catatonic from losing the Internet for a year or more.

Is she used to Poke-E-Mon? (I know, sorry)!

Rough life, isn’t it Dakota?

Does it, tho?

Oh-uh. Dakota is slowly losing control.

“If I can’t poke, don’t fix it!”

It happened the other day at work. Someone constantly poking the elevator button to make it come faster. Yeah, that’ll work.

Reminds me of people punching elevator buttons more than once.

Oh, Dakota, if only you learnt to enjoy the moment! If I was there, I’d be using my phone to record the totally rad lighting storms! The place probably smells, sure, but I’m used to such odors, and would happily stay a while. I mostly film freight trains, but I’d love to get into recording weather phenomenona.
