Alas, the Day We Have Been Dreading Approaches

4 Replies

Once again, I have not gotten the ‘toon for today done, but it will be ready for Tuesday. As is now my new practice, when other work (or excessive naps) gets in the way of me finishing the days ‘toon in time to get it posted, I will dive into the archives and find a few relevant ‘toons to bridge the gap till next time.

And boy do we have relevant ‘toons!

Since HWMNBN (aka F45*) is about to lie about upholding the oath to the Constitution again, I thought I’d share a few ‘toons from January of 2017. It’s gonna be a rough ride ahead. We can’t afford to check out entirely (as much as I would like to,) but we do need to be gentle with ourselves and engage in things that make us happy. I worked most of the day in my studio, and then got close to an hour in my garden before it started getting dark around 5. This is definitely an improvement over getting dark at 3:30.

So, without further ado, let’s ride the armored car down memory lane, as we remember Mitten’s first reign of terror!

Can I open my eyes yet?
Whats a protest without pandas?
Hey, save some cuppycakes for me!

Just a reminder to turn off your TV and internet on Monday, the 20th, to protest F45’s return to the WH. Nothing will piss him off more than seeing the terrible TV ratings, and to have the streets practically empty.

Are all these paper clips mine?

The more things change, the more they stay the same. But I hope the following photograph from the 2017 Women’s March held in Langley gives you a bit of hope. Despite the fact that many people (I think there were 4 buses full) went into Seattle for the much bigger march, lots of people came out on that sunny Saturday to stand against F45.

*F45 stands for Felon 45

Women’s March, Langley edition! There were many more people already around the corner, and more behind us. Let’s capture some of that hope for our future. We can at least go down swinging.

We MUST Panda On!

I Don’t Know About You, But I Sure Feel Endangered!

I finally watched the movie “Cocaine Bear” and while I can’t say it was a great movie, It was…um…interesting, and the bears won. It was a little grizzly (ha ha ha…see what I did there?) but there were some great cameo appearances by a couple of Pookies, and there were certainly some people who got what they deserved, although there were some other people who did NOT deserve what transpired.

Frank and Mikey would like you to know that it absolutely wasn’t them, but they are not so sure that it wasn’t their sister Josie. She’s not telling.

But what does Cocaine Bear have to do with today’s ‘toon? Well, there was some very important Bear NooZ this week…

As we get closer to “D” day, I am more worried and depressed than ever. Frank and Mikey always cheer me up a little and I hope they’ll make you feel better too. Pretty sure they are more qualified than 99.9% of F45’s cabinet picks.

Be the Bear, Everyone!

Now look what you’ve done! It’s 2025! I’m sure I could have stopped it if I had just stayed up all night. Expect non-stop dumpster fires (Literally!)

I do wish everyone a “Happy” New Year.

It’s Time for a Holiday Classic!

2 Replies

I’m afraid once again, I have failed to finish the ‘toon planned for today on time (where DOES the time go?) so instead, we will have a re-broadcast, an Encore Presentation, if you will, of one of my favorite Holiday Classics!

It’s a WUnderful Life!

Starring the one, the only, the magnificent, Mr. Wu!

Thank goodness Bee the Bear still has her magical wand from the last adventure.
Wu is a good bear at heart….
Bee the bear tells it like it is
What part of “you don’t exist” didn’t you get? Ha ha! I love that line!
You won’t like this, Mr Wu!
Those darn cats!
Repeat after me, “It’s a story” ‘kay?
Everytime a bell rings, a panda gets a cuppycake.
Yay! The heartwarming schmoopy ending!
A bear and his mom…together forever?

I hope you enjoyed this Encore Presentation of It’s a WUnderful Life as much as I did! Stay ‘tooned next week for our regularly scheduled ‘toon plus more holiday classics!

A Panda Satire Generator For You

10 Replies

I was inspired by one of my favorite ‘toonists on the inter webs, John Atkinson of Wrong Hands comics. His recent ‘toon on a Christmas movie generator made me think, “I bet I can do this for Panda Satire.”

Have fun with making your own ‘toon plots. Feel free to share in the comments and on the socials!

Be sure to share your ‘toon plots!

Bob T who knew it was this easy? Panda

An Encore Presentation until tomorrow!

2 Replies

I can’t claim that it’s because of the upcoming thankfulness holiday. I just didn’t finish today’s ‘toon. Here’s something to keep you from showing up at my house with flaming pitchforks until tomorrow.

Is there anything more fun than watching Bikkie play wif Mommee or even just roll around in the den by himself?

Okay! Hope that holds you until tomorrow! I hope you enjoyed these randomly selected ‘toons!

Nixon’s Ghost is Really Not Amused

What is the ghost of who, up until now, was the most criminal president in US history supposed to do with our current state of affairs?

Sigh…cancer on the presidency, indeed.

I don’t know..maybe it’s an option?

One More ‘Toon from the Panda House Kitchen Table

10 Replies

I wrote this a couple weeks ago, and one thing and another jumped up and down and yelled “I’m more important! NO! I am” and so I finally got this one done.

There will be a bit of a rant after this ‘toon, so feel free to skip that if you are tired of me ranting! I am still a wreck, and I suspect many of you are too, so let’s just get to those fun-loving pandas!

Cheating is definitely not winning.

Be the Bear and Panda On
Bob T stress napping for the next 5 days Panda

So here goes my rant:

I seriously can not figure out how anyone with a brain could possibly consider voting for TFG. He is visibly deteriorating every time he is on camera, and we have no idea what is going on when he is not on camera. At this point it is clear he is being used by the extreme wing of the Heritage Foundation/GQP because he is (inexplicably) popular with his rabid base. At this point it is clear that the goal is to get him elected, either pull his puppet strings or replace him with JD, who seems to be full on board with a live action version of The Handmaids’ Tale/Hunger Games.

And can we talk about Pastor Mike’s plan to toss out the Affordable Care Act? Were it not for the ACA, I would have been without healthcare from about 2010 till I was eligible for Medicare (which they also want to get rid of, along with Social Security.) In a recorded conclave with big GOP donors, he talked about the affront of having the government get between you and your healthcare.

I’ll wait while you consider that statement from Pastor M…

Yeah…the party who allows women to die of sepsis/blood loss in the parking lot when they have miscarried rather than let her determine with her doctor that she needs an abortion to save her life, is concerned about the government sliding into your doctors office.

Every time I watch Kamala Harris and the people who support her (Michelle! Beyonce!) I feel a flood of hope for the possibility of being governed by adults. I can’t listen to any more news about polls or the horse race the major media seems to want to keep talking about. I can only worry so much about TFG and Pastor Mike’s BIG SECRET for that One Great trick That Big Democrats Don’t Want You To Know About to Overthrow Democracy and trust that Marc Elias and all his clever lawyers will protect us from such fuckery.

I know everyone who is still here with me is the choir I am preaching to and believe me, I am so glad you are here and understand the assignment: To vote for Kamala and all the D’s on the ballot. Big shout out to all of you in Ohio (Sherrod Brown!!!) and those in swing states who have to listen to all the hyperbolic political ads non-stop.

Thank you who have chosen hope over retribution. I’m so glad we are here together.

5 more days!

as a reward for listening to me rant, here’s our favorite seasonal ‘toon!

Fabulous Furry Friday KNOWS that this is one of your favorites!

NooZFlash! The GQP Continue to be Soulless A**holes

4 Replies

Okay, that’s not really a NoozFlash. They are ALWAYS a**holes! I guess if you can do something well, you feel encouraged to do it all the time. I mean…if you’re good at lying and being a racist, I guess you might think it’s a good reason to continue doing it.

Meanwhile, charges have been filed against VD and Donny in Springfield Ohio for their lies comments against the Haitian community there. Fortunately, we have reports that Miss Sassy is alive and well.

Of course ZooNooZ has the interview.

We’ll be reminding you in each post that several of states that could be in play are continuing to purge voters from their rolls. Please check your voter registration ASAP and vote as soon as you are able! The GQP is counting on using dirty tricks to suppress the vote wherever they can, since they definitely can’t win on policy.

And for my friends in the path of Hurricane Helene, one of the things Project 2025 wants to do is disband or privatize NOAA. We all rely on up to date, accurate weather reports, but not having that information when a hurricane or tornado is heading your way, is a matter of life and death.

Don’t let TFG endanger the country on multiple fronts. VOTE!

Be the Bear,
Bob T voting blue all the way Panda
