Fugitive Tigers Terrify in Tornado Tempest

I am much better at finding “P” words than I am at “T” words, other than Trouble that starts with a capital “T” and that rhymes with “P” and that stands for PANDA!!! The Nooz crossed my screen about some tigers that escaped during a recent tornado that touched down somewhere in Georgia, fell on the fence of the tiger enclosure and wouldn’t you know? Cats, being cats, they escaped! Hopefully they didn’t find any poodles (poodles are what tigers like best!) and maybe only found a shouty blonde congress”person”.

Here kitty kitty!

I wanted to let those of you who *might* miss me on Twidder (No judgment if you’re still there, but I just can’t bring myself to be there) that Substack has this new thing called “Notes” which is a Twidder-like conversation space. In fact, it is enough like Twidder, that it has Elmo pissed off and he is blocking links to Substack posts. (Hopefully without the a**holes, but we’ll see) and I think if you are subscribed to any of the Noozletters there (like mine, for instance) you can converse there too. Is it worth it? Who knows? But if you want to say hi to me there, you can. You can follow this link to get started.

Animals Are United: Don’t Let the GOP Co-opt Us

Well…first the elephants rebelled. “We are kind, we take care of all vulnerable members of our community. We are loyal and we remember those who have treated us kindly. Is there ANYTHING in that description that makes you think of the GOP? I think not.”

So we thought…spineless…shape shifting…poisonous…I know! Jellyfish!

But alas…

I could not resist

It’s Indictment Season!

I do apologize for leaving our storyline involving Bikkie, Pookie, and PPJ up in the air (so to speak) but they will be fine. Mommee Mei and Josie are having a nice cup of tea. Pinky is trying to think of a good story, and I’m *pretty* sure that when Mikey got airsick, he didn’t hit anyone walking below the balloon.

But!

There is such exciting NooZ I could not resist! Here, just in time for You Know Who’s arraignment in NYC….

We are trying so hard to treat this with the seriousness it requires, but….

I’m sorry to leave the bears upon in the air, but there has been so much going on! I hope this will fill in a narrative gap or two. (While I figure out what is going to happen next, and take care of a few other things!)

Bears will be bears!

It’s Time for Another LiarpalOOza!

I thought KittySue would jut go away after Mittens lost, but nooooooo! She’s STILL HERE!!! How can we miss you if you won’t go away. (We say that a lot, don’t we?) And now, we have the Liar-in-Training, Georgie Porgy, a very promising candidate for biggest liar ever! He has big shoes to fill if he wants to go up against KittySue (she’s available!) and Mittens.

And remember! The parts of republican characters here are now played by spineless jelly fish. The elephants just weren’t having it any more!

My head hursts. Will these spineless jellyfish just go away and leave us in peace?

Thanks to all who have bought Litter Box of Chaos! I’m glad SOMETHING good came out of Mittens’ reign of terror! And even bigger thanks to those who have left glowing reviews on Amazon! It really helps get my book moved up in the dreaded algorithm!

Surely, you don’t want to rely on all that main stream media to hear the latest! No! You want a reliable NooZ source! One with Pandas! And cats!

You can always trust what a panda tells you!*

*Um…unless maybe if it’s Pinky or PPJ.

Hang on to your hats. It’s gonna be…um…well, you know.

Bob T why isn’t this over Panda

Hey! Yes you! Did you know I have a new book collection of my ‘toons you read here? It’s Book 10 of The Panda Chronicles: Litter Box of Chaos – The Mittens years. Yes, its my political leaning ‘toons from the last 5 years and you can get it on Amazon!

If you like it, it really helps with visibility and sales if you leave a review. It doesn’t need to be long! One or two sentences saying you peed your pants you were laughing so hard or that coffee squirted out your nose. Thank you!

Look out DC! There’s a New Bear in Town…

It hurts my fingers to type that phrase!

This is Panda Defamation. I’m pretty sure there is a law against that!

I mean if that P.A.B. (look it up in the Congressional Record) Ron DeSanctus wants to make bloggers who want to say mean things about him register with the state of Floriduh, it surely must be illegal to portray pandas in an unflattering way!

Bob T I’ll say anything I want about Floriduh Panda
