My mind went to Power Rangers Dino Thunder where the teens find Tommy’s video diary when Conner makes a sarcastic yawn when the video has him declaring that they’re about to view the history of his life.
But then Conner retracts that yawn after Tommy said it’s his history as a Power Ranger.
Okay even for a strip this creative… I didn’t see robots coming. It’s not a bad thing mind you, I love this insane twist, but it still threw me in the best way possible.
Do unicorns have an equivalent of the uncanny valley? Human like animatronics and animation runs into a problem that when it becomes too close to human appearance it begins to look creepy because it still looks a little off. Do unicorns have a similar reaction to things that are almost but not quite like unicorns?
I’m not so sure that’d be a good thing, Phoebe. One day you have a robotic unicorn, the next day it’s forcing you to run through a disused laboratory and test a portable hole device.
Is this like where Superman can’t always be around so there are Superman Robots so Clark can get some sleep once in a while? MEANWHILE, AT THE UNICORN FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE (and Sparkles)!
Oh darn, I thought Marigold was going to say she would be leaving her non-version in her space for a while. Just as an “un-birthday” is as real as a birthday only different. The minus of something is a something too. A certain Dodgson says so.

Not long ago, Disney World closed the Universe of Energy ride starring Ellen DeGeneres to replace it with a Guardians of the Galaxy roller coaster.
Shortly after the closure, Ellen publicly announced that she wanted to have the animatronic of herself, so she could make it host the show for her.

Being a unicorn, I thought it would at least be a robot triple.

If someone makes a robot of you, surely it will more like those mechanical horses from “Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs”

And just like that, Phoebe and Her Unicorn has added science fiction to its list of genres.
