Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for July 06, 2019

Watch “censored for T.V.” versions of R-rated movies.

Actually, probably wait until she’s a teenager for that.

I think there is someone from whom they can ask advice about parental rebelling: Infernus’ sibling. (What was neigh’s name again?)

Boy, Phoebe and Ferny get along great!

IIRC, Marigold used to worry about introducing Phoebe to other unicorns, concern that other Unicorns probably wouldn’t see Phoebe, a human, the same way she does. That they’d see her as a curiosity rather than a person, right?

But so far, every unicorn we’ve met seems to happily converse with Phoebe as an equal. No condescension or patronizing or anything of the sort in sight. Which is awesome in it’s own right, but a far cry from what Marigold claimed would happen.

Did she misjudge her race a little? I’m wondering if a similar thing might happen if we were to introduce a foreign intelligent creature to our own race – we’d claim that they might experience discrimination, but it wouldn’t actually turn out to be as bad we we implied?

Fight the power? Does this mean we have to call her Phoebe G or Phoebe Feeb? (If you don’t get the reference, you were born after 1990.)

I always take my time when I polish MY horn….

Phoebe’s preparing well to be a “memorable” teenager!

If unicorns want to “rebel” against unicornkind in general, they could start using contractions……..

One shouldn’t rush when polishing one’s horn. Just saying.

Anyone else think Phoebe and Ferny look alike in Panel Two?

If you don’t polish your horn you could get horn-gum disease and it might even fall out! — sayeth the parents

The most dangerous rebellion would be to turn off their shield of boringness. It would be the worst thing they could do. Then the bad old days would be back and its far more crowded now than before.

POWER TO THE PEOPLE! :D
