The Entire Cast of YBOP Republican Characters Have Been Replaced With Spineless Jellyfish

I mean…it was bound to happen!

Will we change Mittens to a jellyfish? Hmmm…I think he needs to be something more dangerous. Maybe he will just be represented by a flaming dumpster. What do you think? After all, Gary Trudeau never actually drew W in his ‘toons…

Bob T is mulling things over Panda

Did you remember to head over to Substack for the last installments of The Wizard of Wu and the complete A Halloween Carol! What are you waiting for?

Now it’s Time for the Exciting Conclusion of…

A Halloween Carol!

The ghosts of Halloween present and Halloween future have entered the building! The tension m mounts! Will Pinky finally see the error of her ways? (Pinky: as if!!!!)

Uh oh, the ghost of halloween present just caught up with Pinky…
Was that list in small type, single spaced?

More Pouty Pinky!

The Spirit of Halloweens yet to come is not a spirit to be messed with, right?
Surely you didn’t think she would totally reform, did you?

We hope you enjoyed this year’s Encore Presentation of A Halloween Carol. If you haven’t yet seen The Wizard of Wu, you can find it on our Substack Nooz channel!

“Error of Pinky’s ways??!?!?!?!” Hahahahaha!

One of Pinky’s misdeeds has come back to haunt her… can her campaign survive this?
Hmmm… Pinky still does not seem impressed. Perhaps the ghost of Halloween present will have more influence over her.

Who can the ghost of Halloween Present possibly be? ‘Toon in next time for our fabulous Encore Presentation of A Halloween Carol!

And don’t forget to head over to Substack for our annual Encore Presentation of The Wizard of Wu, in 3 parts!

Bob T I’ve been very very good! Panda

Well, Bless Their Hearts!

Six and Sebben are on their way! Beware! Beware!

I realize it has been a bit of time since the last installment of Life in the Panda House, but there were those Fat Bear Week scandals to address, and then the whole “the Deep State is making hurricanes hit GOP states” thingie.

But now we’re back on track…for this week, anyway.

Is it my imagination or are Six and Sebben getting more poorly behaved, bless their hearts?

Fat Bear Week Scandals Abound!

Once again, I must point out that we, the crack reporting team at ZooNooZ, had uncovered this story BEFORE the recent revelations of voter fraud broke out regarding that little trollop Holly stuffing the ballot box as if it were a garter belt at a backwoods bear stripper bar.

You can be sure ZooNooZ will be covering this malodorous malfeasance in a future broadcast. But for now, let’s deal with the CURRENT scandal!

How many scandals can one bear?

You Don’t Need A Weatherman To Know Which Way the GQP Blows

(and do they ever!)

This ‘toon practically wrote itself, with the help of one of my #WriterTwitter acquaintances!

I mean…do they understand science at all?

Don’t forget to check out this week’s Substack NoozLetter with the middle part of the Annual Encore Presentation of The Wizard of Wu!

Well, Bless Their Hearts!

Those who know me well, know that there is no joke that, if I think it is funny, that I won’t use at every opportunity. ( I was going to say, “beat to death”, but that’s not really the vibe I want here, ya know?) Ever since the first time I depicted Lun Lun as a rather pampered southern belle, in contrast with her older sister Mei Xiang talking on the phone to each other, it never ceases to crack me up.

Lun Lun’s conniving to send Six and Sebben off to stay with her sister’s family, all while sipping an adult beverage out by the pool, is one of my favorite themes.

Mei Xiang, oddly enough, is less than amused.

Byeeee!

Be the bear
Bob T bless their hearts Panda

Don’t miss this week’s Substack post for this year’s encore presentation of that halloween classic, the Wizard of Wu!

Go Fishie!

There is nothing so heartwarming as all the panda kids (and Pookie) gathered around the kitchen table, playing Go Fishie!

Um…is gambling permitted at a government facility?
