One of the best things about writing fiction is that you can make things come out how you would like. Alas…not so true in real life, but we can think about this better story and pretend, right?
PPJ for the win!
Be the Bear!
Bob T is not a fan of reality Panda
Did we promise PPJ would swoop in and fix things?
Yes we did
Did we promise there would be a sekret weapon?
Yes, we did
Did we promise the ICE Maiden would be vanquished?
Yes, we did, indeed.
PPJ: I told yoo my hello kitty flamethrower would come in handy!
Pinky: sigh….
PPJ: but I was right, right?
Be the Bear
Bob T I told you it would be okay Panda
Come back for the exciting denouement of our story next week!
PPJ is on the scene, drinking cocoa and explaining her clever plan!
Yeah….WHAT secret weapon???? Enquiring minds want to know!
Be the Bear
Bob T secret weapon Panda
No, Unka Bob is NOT the secret weapon.
I’m not gonna lie. It feels pretty dark right now. The House Republicans have passed their No Billionaire left Behind Bill, aka Billions for Billionaires Bill. Rural hospitals will close, as people lose their Medicaid health insurance. The ripple effects will be felt in all corners of the country. Spending FEMA money on concentration camps seems like a bad idea, just as hurricane season takes hold. Tent camps in Florida? What could go wrong?
Meanwhile, the only reliable NooZ source is covering the important story of the day.
Of course, Nixon’s Ghost has entered the chat.
Be the Bear
Bob T is trying not to panic Panda
PPJ has entered the story…what could possibly go wrong?
We can be sure that PPJ has some clever ideas on combatting the forces of evil, and the ICE Maiden. At least, I think we can be sure. The next episode is still revealing itself to me.
Till next time…
Be the Bear
Bob T is that a chill in the air? a disturbance in the Force? Panda
I mean…who wouldn’t get distracted by whippy cream, right?
It gets crazier and meaner by the day in the real world. I hope you are all doing okay.
Be the Bear
Bob T not sure how much of this I can take Panda
Yes, I am working on more ‘toons about PING-GATE (Thank you Aunty Loosilla!) but it’s another busy week, with delivering art work to Seattle on the agenda, so here are some relevant ‘toons from the archives.
Mittens finally has a corrupt enough cabinet to give him the green light for his big boy military parade, but this is not the first time he asked for it…
A bear can dream…
In 2020, the National Parks were shut down because of the pandemic. Now, there is a more sinister plan at work. The parks have been decimated by the firing of park personnel, and so now they are going to try to sell off OUR public lands.
It was better when the animals took over.

Bob T can I have another Bootini? Panda
That’s right! Pinky has entered the chat! If Pinky can’t fix this, nobeary can. After all, Pinky has a secret weapon: Princess Pinky Junior.
Sending out a big thanks to all who came out on Saturday to say: NOPE! NO KINGS! Unofficial estimates are 12.1 MILLION people came out across the country and not only in typical Democratic strongholds. Keep the pressure up!
Be the Bear!
Bob T nope nope nope nope Panda
You know I don’t mean to cause trauma to the pandas, but we are living this in real time in the real world. I don’t know where this ends, either in our story here, or in the real world. We are all immigrants, or the children or grandchildren of immigrants.
Today, The Ice Maiden had a sitting US Senator ARRESTED for asking a question at a press conference. Where does this end?
Stay ‘tooned!
Be the Bear
Bob T this will not stand Panda
kept me from finishing today’s ‘toon…I promise it’s in progress, but a painting took my attention this morning, a long nap yesterday afternoon, and tending to my mobile tomato garden also kept me from my appointed tasks.
Enjoy today’s offerings from the archives. I will say that nothing scary is happening to Ping this week as our story contuses to develop.
It seems like Six and Sebben need to make an appearance in our current story, don’t you think? Mittens and his evil minions wouldn’t stand a chance against them.
I promise I’ll have the next installment by Thursday!
Till then,
Be the Bear
Bob T I’ll be out protesting Panda
