Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for May 31, 2021

What about that unicorn who was famous for being very green, and inspired others to turn themselves green to celebrate a holiday that coincidentally happens to coincide with St Patrick’s day?

Marigold almost said the name of that “My little pony” episode!

green would help the shield of boringness. But its not an easy color to be. Unicorns just don’t have what it takes to live the hard life.

But if they were getting energy via photosynthesis, they wouldn’t need to graze.

She tried, but found“It’s Not Easy Bein’ Green” But instead turned “A Whiter Shade of Pale”.

To say nothing of a lucrative career as moving topiary!

I suppose Marigold didn’t want to change her name to “Chlorophyllis”.

No Irish Unicorns?

“In school we learned how plants turn sunlight into food.”

(admires designs and colors in the panel of the cartoon involving this dialogue)

makes me wonder: when LSH hides in shrubbery, does his coat turn green?

So Phoebe thinks that Unicorns want to be camoflaged? I thought her time with Marigold had taught her a few things about Unique-orns.

Actually I find the idea of a green Unicorn really charming.

Why would a unicorn want to camouflage itself? Aside from Lord Splendid Humility, of course.

Yesterday it was flipflops and shorts. Today sneakers and jeans. Weather must be wishy washy.

The Shield of Boringness functions as camouflage.

Technically they use chlorophyll and sunlight to turn air and water into food…
