What…? That’s NOT what a Bear Market is?
How many times do we need to tell you: Frank and Mikey are…um…idiots.

But maybe be Josie instead of Frank or Mikey…

More greatest hits!
It was another one of those weeks. Between getting a bit of a cold — first one since covid—and trying to get my tax stuff mailed in (why, oh why?) I didn’t quite get today’s ‘toon done. It will definitely be ready for next week, so in the meantime, I thought I’d pull out some of my Pinky’s greatest hits.
Remember, once an icon, always an icon. It’s not just common sense, it’s the LAW!
Pinky forebber!
Pinky at her poof-iest!
I want to acknowledge that weeks (are you sure it hasn’t been years) since Mittens came back into power have been extremely hard, and it’s easy to slip into dark thoughts. I am constantly ricocheting back and forth between oh look! the sun is out and I have leftover pizza, and all is lost! F45 is going to steal every penny in the treasury and murder all sorts of people who don’t deserve it, and, and, and…
It’s a struggle to keep on the path, but hopefully a large dose of baby Pinky will help.
I’m so glad you are all here with me.

Icon, no more?
Can one’s status as an icon be revoked? As Pinky might say…
Dis! will! not! stand!
Along with all the spam that shows up here in what I can only identify as possibly Russian, and all the pitches to improve my SEO ranking, I got a new one today. This one was an opportunity to split $11 million dollars due to an “unclaimed inheritance.” Sigh…I guess there are people who will fall for that kind of thing, helpfully sending off their banking information, etc, etc. For all I know, this is what E-loon’s flying monkeys are doing after rifling through all of our personal information.
Oopsie. I deleted it. No millions for me, I guess.
And then there is the little issue of in addition to burning the country down, Mittens wants to throw himself another military parade…
Good times, eh?

Happy April Fool’s Day, otherwise known as Day 71 of F45’s 2nd Reign of Terror
There hardly seems like there could be an April Fool’s Day joke that would reach the absurdity of everything we are currently living through, but here we are. Alas, the weekend got away from me again (too many naps, too much cake…you know how that goes) so once again, I must dip into the archives for your entertainment today.
One little point of discussion after last week’s ‘toon, starring Frank and Mikey, with a discussion of some vital NooZ. It was pointed out to me that the story they told was NOT A REAL STORY! and I have some thoughts about that. First I made several references to Andy Borowitz, a well known writer of satire, who…um…broke this story. Secondly, have you learned NOTHING over the time since Frank and Mikey made their way onto the scene? When have they EVER said anything that is true? I mean…if Mehitabel had introduced the story, there is a 80%-20% chance that the story would be true, but as Frank and Mikey are the bearsonification of unreliable narrators, one would be well advised to never believe anything they say. Just ask Josie!
Meanwhile, back at the zoo…
A recent (real) NooZ story that Elmer’s incels are turning their attention to The Smithsonian and THE ZOO to root out fraud and “improper ideology“… I felt moved to redo a little of the dialog from this classic from Pinky’s first campaign to be presydent…
IMPROPER IDEOLOGY my ass! I mean…Pinky isn’t even there anymore!
It really fits, doesn’t it? Now…on with a little Panda Foolery…
I hope you enjoyed this romp down memory lane!

Is it April Fool’s Day or April’s Fool Day?
Yeah, yeah, yeah…I’m WORKING on it…
Oops! Another week where I was too busy gallivanting around to get Tuesday’s ‘toon done, but never fear. I would not leave you without some entertainment! For your consideration, I have dug into to the archives to share some ‘toons from…the Pinky Zone!
“How does you spell ‘hostage’?” hee hee hee!
Baby Pinky is kind of my favorite! I hope this will bring a smile to your face until we figure out what we’re doing on Thursday!
Be the Bear,
Bob T it’s not like there is anything else going on, is there? Panda
Some Stuff from the Archives
It’s another one of those weeks that has too much too do and not enough time to do everything that needs doing, so I’m going to blindfold myself and stick my hand into the old archives and see what I can find. Maybe I’ll have a new ‘toon for Thursday, maybe not. Definitely for next week, though!
I think we need something that will make us laugh, something to take our minds of that power mad mongrel that would be king.
Maybe something about another power hungry character….
And just to remind you, we knew 9 years ago how terrible it would be if You Know Who was ever elected even the FIRST time!!!
We are afraid. Honest.
Pinky: you should have voted for me.

Accomplishments of the Week: Panda House Edition
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.

Remember…Only YOU Can Prevent Fascism!
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!
And most importantly: Here’s to BEARS!!!!
Mr. Bun has the right idea!

Panda-ing Into the Apocalypse (Part 3697)
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.

We’re Back, Baby!
Yep. The Panda cam is BACK!
And not a moment too soon. The first week of felon in Chief’s 2nd Reign of Terrorism was pretty rough and I wish I had more hope that the forces of compassion and fairness will prevail.
But we will do what we can, when we can. It’s okay to take a break (and watch the panda cam!) when you need to. Even small things have impact. I have my US Senator’s and House rep bookmarked, so I can easily send an email. Some people like to make phone calls. There are scripts out there to make it easier, but I kind have developed phone phobia, so emails are my drug of choice. My favorite source for actions is Chop Wood, Carry Water on Substack. Even one email a week will add up.
Okay, Enough serious stuff. Let’s check in on the new Panda Cam!
I guess the new panda cam hours of operation are going to take some getting used to.
