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.

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.

Bob T hanging in there for the moment Panda
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?

Bob T says always choose the bear Panda
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.

Bob T is such a card Panda
It really does seem like the true aim of Mittens 2.0 is the destruction of the government, the rule of law, and everything that could possibly bring joy, comfort, or sustenance to the American People.
But it is up to us to preserve what joy and purpose we have in this life and I’ll be damned if I’m not going to go down swinging.
So here’s to the JOY that pandas bring!
Here’s to finding humor in a very not funny situation!
Here’s to laughing at these oh so serious morons that are doing their “best” to ruin our lives!
Mr. Bun has the right idea!
Be the Bear!

Be sure to read my new things on Substack!
The bears with me, of course, are Frank, Mikey, Josie, and Pookie, and of course all the pandas. I recently changed the name of my Substack to Friendly to Bears, just because. I recently wrote a new thing there, which I hope you’ll read.
There is no truth to the rumor that Frank and Mikey have taken control of the ‘toons and are compelling me to write ‘toons about them instead of pandas. We will prove this by sharing today’s ‘toon…um…what happened? Where are the pandas?
The story about Frank and Mikey’s mom came from the keeper talk about the grizzly bear brothers who live in San Diego. Their mom really did get arrested and she really did get a “job” test garbage cans. I hope she doesn’t get fired with all the firings in the park system as well as the rest of the government.
There was a story on Fezbok about a little bear that was rescued by cows, until the Appalachian Bear rescue found him. Was it really Josie? We’ll never tell!

Once again the day got away from me, so enjoy this bonus edition of gems from the archive. Offerings from Februarys past…
I *may* have attended a small but sincere protest gathering in Langley yesterday.
And 2025 version 2.0 of the F45 regime is worse still.
The Red Panda resistance will not be denied!
Alas…
What’s a day without a visit from Pinky? (or Six and Sebben?)
Let’s face it. Things are getting really bad and they are going to get worse. Oh crap, I was trying not to say that, but it just slipped out. I’ll be back on Thursday, with the finished ‘toon I thought I’d get done today. Best laid plans and all.
If you need a really good laugh, please enjoy this SNL skit with some really star talent being as funny and raunchy as you could not believe. Woody Harrelson trying to keep from busting out laughing is priceless.

Bob T hoping democracy is not over Panda
We know a lot about our panda families, as they have been well documented and recorded on Panda cams, but Frank and Mikey…they have been somewhat more of a mystery.
There have been way too many revelations in the Nooz today. I think retreating to a bear filled forest is just what we need. (Well, what I need, anyway)

Bob T Friendly to Bears Panda
By which, of course, I mean NooZ about bears. Speaking of bears, I changed the name of my Substack NooZletter to Friendly to Bears. While I am still searching for my Inner Panda, I thought a change was in order. Don’t ask me why. I think it was Frank and Mikey’s idea.
Speaking of Frank and Mikey, I was inspired by the story one of the zookeepers guides told us about their grizzly bear brothers that live at the zoo, and how they arrived there. Frank and Mikey (and Josie) had a similar story about their early days, and how they ended up where they did.
The real NooZ is pretty scary and upsetting. If you can make the effort to call and/or email your reps in the House and Senate, it seems to be making a difference. Even if your reps are “Rs” they need to hear from you. Let’s make them nervous that they’ll lose their jobs if they don’t listen to their voters. You are their constituents even if you didn’t vote for them & you’re paying their salary.

It’s been a year, so far, these first 2 weeks of F45’s second reign of terror, hasn’t it? Meanwhile the Skipping Dipshit is up to his elbows in our personal information, along with his band of marauding incels.
I would much rather think about bears, so that is what I’m going to do.*
*I am writing my reps in the Senate and the House almost daily because they need to know what we think about all this insanity that is going on right in front of us.
A reminder that animals also suffer in devastating fires like the ones in and around L.A. in January.

A big pandy thank you to ALL of you who alerted me to this story! Keep those bear stories coming! The community of friends of bears is mighty and we will get through this together.
