It’s Birthday Week at the Panda House!

Of course now, The Panda House, at least as regarding Pinky, Bubba, and Bikkie, is more of a magical concept than an actual place, since now Binky Li and QB live in the REAL Panda House. But in my mind, Pinky, Bubba, and Bikkie will always live in that Panda House with their Mommee and Daddy (MX: Oh, thanks a LOT!)

Since Pinky’s birthday (Pinky: a BIG nashunal holiday!!!) is on Saturday, We will unveil Pinky’s new “Starter Pack” image today, along with a link to one of her products on RedBubble, the place that I make my designs available on stuff you can buy for your very own. It’s a fun way to support Panda Satire! (Ask and mebbee you will receive!)

But since today is Bikkie’s actual birthday, we must (we must, we must!) share some of our favorite snippets of stories about Bikkie, and of course, his beloved Mister Poppee!

Happy Bearday, Biscuit!

I guess all the pandas are going to want their own Starter Packs. Watch for them through the fall. I have so many ideas*.

Bob T *well, if we survive that is, Panda

A Panda Chronicles faithful reader shared this little snippet of a Meta A.I. reaction to my post of my “Fat Bear Week” Starter Pack. I thought it was kind of funny, but your mileage may vary. Here it is for your enjoyment/edification/outrage or whatever:

“Bob T Panda’s post suggests they’ve created something new, but details are scarce. The reactions indicate 57 people engaged with the post: 16 likes, 27 loves, and 14 haha reactions. Given the enthusiastic response, especially with 27 loves, it’s likely something creative or meaningful. Without more context, it’s hard to say what exactly it is, but it seems people are impressed or entertained.
I’m here to help with a wide range of topics, from answering questions and providing information to generating texts and ideas. I can assist with creative tasks like writing stories or brainstorming, offer insights on various subjects, or simply chat about everyday life. What specific aspect of my work would you like to know more about?”

I could definitely add some editorial comments to Meta’s A.I. B.S., but I’ll leave that up to you.

Our Story (Remember that?) Continues

Now where were we?

So as I recall, PPJ showed up, poofed Frank, Mikey, Bikkie, and Pookie into a hot air balloon and off they went. Meanwhile, Josie finally found her way from Alaska to the Panda House at the National Zoo.

Okay! you are caught up.

Meanwhile, Friend to Bears Lucilla suggested that a gathering of pandas to say farewell to Ya Ya as she returns to China would be a fun thing. I immediately pounced (like a cat!) on this as a way to wrap up a story that seemed (like a hot air balloon) to be drifting aimlessly on the breeze.

Maybe don’t stand right under the balloon?

Bob T I bet somebody is gonna get grounded Panda

You Knew Someone Was Going to Get Grounded, Didn’t You?

Was it YOU?

We have recently received reports of the arrest of one of the Jan 6 insurrectionists who was reported to have worn…I can’t believe I have to say this… a PANDA SUIT when he invaded the Capitol.

Do I have to remind you that pandas are peaceful and a force for good and would never, never, never support Mittens? Needless to say, ZooNooZ will be covering this shameful episode next week. Defamation suits are being considered.

Be the Bear
Bob T pandas would never do that Panda

BTW, I have a new thingie on my Substack Noozletter!

Did I mention there will be a new book SOON?

Another International Incident Narrowly Averted

Never underestimate the diplomatic value of hot cocoa (with liddle marshymallows) and cookies!

I’m guessing everyone involved (except for the First Lady) will be grounded.

A reminder that my pontificating can be found over on my new Substack NoozLetter. Feel free to subscribe as a free or paid subscriber. Both are welcome! Also, I am making progress on my new book! Hopefully by next week I’ll be ready to do a cover reveal and have a little more accurate estimate of when it will be available.

Till then…

Be the Bear
Bob T I’m tired of winter Panda

What goes up…More spy balloon nonsense

It was nice of whoever is continuing to float UFOs around the sky so that my ‘toon series would be relevant. Was this a spy balloon, or just a wayward panda cubby?

You be the judge!

You had ONE JOB, Beary Poppins!

Hee Hee!

Be the Bear
Bob T I told you nothing bad would happen Panda

This is it! The BIG Weekend! Three Birthdays in a Row!

CAKE CAKE CAKE CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKE!

Let the fun begin! LOTS of ‘toons for today!

Send cuppycakes and magical wands!
I love a good art forgery, don’t you?
Feed me, Mama!
“If Pinky is grounded, can I have her dessert?”
31 days
Oh come on…hasn’t that ever happened to you? One minute there are two dozen cuppycakes just sitting there, and the next minute they’re gone?
Don’t ignore Princess Pinky!

Remember Bubba’s first birthday when he flunked cake?

birthday
Bubba flunks “cake”

He was determined not to let that happen on his 2nd Birthday!

It does not pay to be late! You don’t want to flunk cake again, do you, Boo Boo?

2020 was the year we thought we were all going to lose our minds, or die from the plague, or be faced with four more years of you know who. But in August, something wonderful happened. And then there were Three!(or 4 counting Ping!)

A new cubby! The possibilities are endless!

Pinky did something wrong? I’m shocked!
Bikkie has a name!!!!

Later in the year, we will rerun the whole Beary Poppins story, but for now, here is one of my favorite panels…

Let’s go fly a kite…
uh oh.

And to wrap up our Birthday Celebration Weekend…

I hope you are enjoying Bikkie’s cake at the zoo! Stay ‘tooned till “toonsday!”

Be the Bear!

You Would Think There Might Be More Important Things Going On, But You Would Be Wrong

I’m sure Zoonooz will be covering current events soon, but just right now there are more important issues to cope with…

#WhereIsBikkie?

No one is above the law. More on this shocking idea later.

Bears on the Lam! The Saga Continues!

I must point out that today is the birthday of the adorable French twins, Fleur and Snowy! They are one year old today. Their big brother Bebe Maurice celebrates his birthday on Thursday! We will share some of their finest moments in ‘toons on Sunday!

But now…to our feature ‘toon of the day!

Panda on!

Panda Birthday Season

It’s the high season of Panda Birthdays. This week we celebrate the birthdays of the great Mr. Wu, the triplets (aka Pinky’s minions) and PPJ, Pinky’s real life daughter and supernatural apparition within The Panda Chronicles.

Let’s get this panda party started!

Remember when Mr Wu got a present from da panda kindy?

Will the panda kindergarten get it put together before Bai Yun gets home?
Mr Wu finds out that the Meihems were born in Pandalanta
AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!
Triple Trouble indeed!
What are Pinky and her minions getting up to?

And then, of course, there is Princess Pinky Junior, aka PPJ. Here, to celebrate her birthday, is the entire story of her arrival in the Panda Chronicles, “Someday you’ll have a cub just like YOU” aka Pinky’s nightmare.

This isn’t a dream…it’s a nightmare!

I hope you enjoyed our encore presentation of this segment of panda birthday season! Tune in next Sunday when we start our monthlong celebration of the most famous pandas anywhere (Pinky made me write that) Bikkie, Bubba, and of course…um…what was her name? Oh yeah! Pinky!

BTW, I made a felty cake to celebrate Mr. Wu’s 10th birthday. It’s one of a kind and includes Mr. Wu atop his cake. The whole thing stands about 5 inches tall with Wu. It is available for $98 + shipping. Send a message via the Contact Us page.

Oh Where, Oh Where Has My Little Bear Gone?

Everyone has pretty much guessed where Bikkie is…

Well, everyone except for Frank and Mikey, that is…

I guess we’ll see what happens next when it happens. I don’t think Frank’s mePhone works from the ferry, so….

Be the Bear!

I hope everyone is watching the Jan6 Hearings today!
