Happy April Fool’s Day, otherwise known as Day 71 of F45’s 2nd Reign of Terror

There hardly seems like there could be an April Fool’s Day joke that would reach the absurdity of everything we are currently living through, but here we are. Alas, the weekend got away from me again (too many naps, too much cake…you know how that goes) so once again, I must dip into the archives for your entertainment today.

One little point of discussion after last week’s ‘toon, starring Frank and Mikey, with a discussion of some vital NooZ. It was pointed out to me that the story they told was NOT A REAL STORY! and I have some thoughts about that. First I made several references to Andy Borowitz, a well known writer of satire, who…um…broke this story. Secondly, have you learned NOTHING over the time since Frank and Mikey made their way onto the scene? When have they EVER said anything that is true? I mean…if Mehitabel had introduced the story, there is a 80%-20% chance that the story would be true, but as Frank and Mikey are the bearsonification of unreliable narrators, one would be well advised to never believe anything they say. Just ask Josie!

Meanwhile, back at the zoo…

A recent (real) NooZ story that Elmer’s incels are turning their attention to The Smithsonian and THE ZOO to root out fraud and “improper ideology“… I felt moved to redo a little of the dialog from this classic from Pinky’s first campaign to be presydent…

IMPROPER IDEOLOGY my ass! I mean…Pinky isn’t even there anymore!

It really fits, doesn’t it? Now…on with a little Panda Foolery…

I am only making some of this up
“It was dark….there were men in masks….”
No nonsense to be found here! See how important the Smithsonian is?
This was way too much fun. :o)
Do you smell smoke?

I hope you enjoyed this romp down memory lane!

Is it April Fool’s Day or April’s Fool Day?

Frank and Mikey Swear That it Wasn’t Them

I don’t know that you can ever believe Frank and Mikey when they say it wasn’t them, but on the other hand, given what the DOGE bros are doing to eff up the government, could you blame them if it WAS them?

Just a thought…

Anyway, here we are again, watching the nooz in horror as the DUI hires in the NatSec segment think it’s a good idea to use an insecure app to have their little chat because it wouldn’t be subject to FOIA requests, and that would outlay national security. More on this next week.

Anyway…here be bears!

Don’t mess with bears!

Yeah, yeah, yeah…I’m WORKING on it…

Oops! Another week where I was too busy gallivanting around to get Tuesday’s ‘toon done, but never fear. I would not leave you without some entertainment! For your consideration, I have dug into to the archives to share some ‘toons from…the Pinky Zone!

He’s small for now, but Bubba Bei Bei is shaping up to be a whole lot of panda!
oops.
Oh Princess Pinky, mom has a trick or two up her paw, I think…
You say you want a resolution, well, you know, it is hard to change a bear….
Could Mama Mei Xiang really be contemplating letting Pinky loose on the pandy kindy?
Never say “No” to a Pinky!
I love a good art forgery, don’t you?

“How does you spell ‘hostage’?” hee hee hee!

Baby Pinky is kind of my favorite! I hope this will bring a smile to your face until we figure out what we’re doing on Thursday!

Be the Bear,
Bob T it’s not like there is anything else going on, is there? Panda

Hey! I got something done, but it’s depressing…

Anyone want to roll the dice for double or nothing for our social Security Checks?

Yeah, me neither.

I bet soon sarcastic quotation marks when referring to F45 or his office will be considered a terroristic act.

Bob T Fuck ’em if they can’t take a joke Panda

Some Stuff from the Archives

It’s another one of those weeks that has too much too do and not enough time to do everything that needs doing, so I’m going to blindfold myself and stick my hand into the old archives and see what I can find. Maybe I’ll have a new ‘toon for Thursday, maybe not. Definitely for next week, though!

I think we need something that will make us laugh, something to take our minds of that power mad mongrel that would be king.

Maybe something about another power hungry character….

I really had no idea what she was up to.
See? I told you it was broken!
Bubba: but why should I be in trubble?
Pinky and the Twinkies, eh?
Bubba is having so much fun with his new friends!
Hey! Where did Bubba and Mr. Bun go?

And just to remind you, we knew 9 years ago how terrible it would be if You Know Who was ever elected even the FIRST time!!!

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

We are afraid. Honest.
Pinky: you should have voted for me.

More NooZ from the Swearing Parrots of Lincolnshire Wildlife Park!

I thought we needed a bit of fun NooZ today (because, ya know, so much else completely sucks right now). Fortunately I can always count on my friends to keep an eye on the NooZ and alert me to really important stories. We originally covered this one a while back in 2021…

Indeed, it turned out that when separated, the parrots who swear taught other birds their salty repartee, so the keepers at Lincolnshire Wildlife Sanctuary decided to put them back together, and at least contain the foul language. They discovered, though, that the swearing parrots were a marketing goldmine, and attendance at the sanctuary is up!

Who knew?

It’s not like we don’t have a lot to swear about, right?

Bob T swearing is good for you Panda

Thanx to Barbara Bee for alerting me to this important update to our earlier report!

Nixon’s Crimes Seem Positively Quaint Now

I’m not sure what to say here. The Nooz is getting very dark, indeed. We need to buckle in and be ready for what is coming.

But that doesn’t mean we won’t make fun of it.

Pretty sure my grandparents didn’t escape from Russia 100 years ago so we could do this all over again.

Accomplishments of the Week: Panda House Edition

As government employees, Binky Li and Qing Bao are not exempt from the requirement to send an email to e-loon, listing 5 things they have accomplished this week. I think you’ll agree that they are accomplishing much more important things than anyone from The Department of Grift and Extortion.

It remains to be seen whether what can be broken so quickly will be able to be repaired in my lifetime.

Always choose the bears.

Thank goodness Ping is there to guide our young pandas through the challenges of life in DC.

Be the Bear and Panda on

How are you BEARING up?

I can’t lie. It’s getting really scary out there. TR-usk are doing their best to wreck everything that makes our country work. Beyond showing up for protests and writing & calling our Congressional reps, I’m not sure what else we can do. But as long as I have ink and paper, and the internet and the electrical grid to get these ‘toons out to you, I’ll do what I do best: making fun of those evil DOUCHE dogs in ‘toons.

If only bears could really talk!

Did those bears….pants those guys?

Great Minds Think Alike …also… BEARS!

As I was erasing all the pencil smoodgies from today’s ‘toon, alert Friend to Bears Frances A. sent me todays Andy Borowitz Report, which, if you are Friendly to Bears, You should definitely read right AFTER you read mine, because I already thought of it without him. Really, I did!

TBF, this one kind of wrote itself, what with all the cruel and inept BS Muskwanker’s flying monkeys have gotten up to.

BEARS!!! amiright?

Frank and Mikey are gonna be pretty busy for a while, I think.

Be the Bear
Bob T is such a card Panda
