Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for January 24, 2025

So I guess the status quo won’t change as much as I thought.

It’s not that uncommon. In Toy Story 3, the garbage man who keeps banging on the trash cans like drums is actually Sid.

Not too awful far, Marigold !

I like Marigold’s expressions today !

OK so same school, probably. Same friends, definitely. Same places to hang out. By my standards (cross country twice while I was in elementary school) that’s like changing bedrooms in the same house.

Oh, good. All’s well.

Don’t like the new art.

This raises an important question. Where does mari live? Do we know? I have a decade of the strip in book form and I’m still not sure we know.

But how does the lawn taste?

Unicorns and GPSs, always recalibrating!

‘This unicorn has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.’

Yeah, just moving to another place within the same town, possibly even the same general neighborhood. Having done that before as a kid, I can confirm it’s really not that big an upheaval. ;)

that answers the question i was worried over.

I would have expected Mari to enquire what the new grass is like.

I was going to say something profound and brilliant, and then the forgetting spell hit me!

Glad this is minor.

Love it! “Hang on, I’m stuck in angry and upset mode!”

“…recalibrate my reaction” is a phrase I’ll have to remember for “those” conversations with my husband.
