Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for June 17, 2023

Oh, so they are doing that. Did Phoebe set it to record video first?

You’re raising your hands up and down, Phoebe. That’s something.

Many former cigarette smokers said the same thing about their hands.

I’ve been reading a fiction in which humans have met a caterpillar/snake sort of intelligence who have tentacles but neither arms nor legs — so obviously, no hands or feet. The primary human character notices that the tentacled ones never seem to slow down and says … “Well, they sure don’t sit on their hands”.

I feel that way as a neurodivergent.

I cannot go more than a minute without something in my hands, and I often find myself grabbing random objects and manipulating them subconsciously.

Start petting the pretty unicorn already.

While they’re not in use, I store my hands in my pockets.

FIDGET SPINNER!!!!

Actually, we don’t often see Phoebe with her phone. It has to be important to a story arc or a one-off gag.

Perhaps Mari could banish Phoebe’s hands to the same dimension?

The benefit of having hooves.

In a little while you will get used to it!

Maybe she can zap them away too!

Time to take up knitting!

Grow two more fingers?

She could use her hands to give Marigold schritces.

Snicker***

Yeah, okay, definitely had a problem with the phone addiction all right.

Down them would be a good idea.

Just put your hands in the air and wave them like you just don’t care.

Sheesh, you call that indifference?!

Have you considered mime school, Phoebe?

This is why more women clothing needs useable pockets. When in doubt stuff your hands in your pockets.

Cat’s cradle?

How about hugging your unicorn?
