Fall Forward; Spring Back!

Leave a reply

I am back from my travels and getting back to work, but didn’t quite get a new ‘toon for today, but I have several in the works! I’m hoping to get them done by the end of the week and then be a bit ahead of things. Hahahahahahhaa! We’ll see!

But…wait…what…travels you say? YOU didn’t tell us you were traveling. Well, I tend not to, ya know, announce my house will be empty and all, but I did and I’m back. Also, the feckless cowards that currently run the goobermint did not have the fortitude or spines to stand up to F45 and re-open the goobermint, so we were deprived of our visit to Binky Li and his beloved QB.

Fortunately for my ‘tooning/painting schedule, this weekend is the semi-annual changing of the clocks so it’s a great opportunity to re-run one of everyone’s favorite ‘toons! Also, the original Halloween ‘toon is a perennial favorite!

Trick or Trick!!!!!!!

BTW, this ‘toon is pre-Pinky, but maybe a foreshadowing of Pinky’s outfit and attitude!

spring back, fall forward?

I hope you enjoyed the recent Encore Presentations of A Halloween Carol and the Wizard of Wu! If you missed them, you could go back a couple weeks and see them.

DON’T FORGET TO VOTE! Important elections are happening next week, especially in Virginia and New Jersey! Even less important seeming elections are happening everywhere. We have an important school board election here, and you might too.

Voting is our right and our responsibility! Use it or lose it!

yes, yes, I left Frank, Mikey, and Ping driving through the woods in the dark, but as a member in good standing of the Panda Sisterhood, it is my solemn responsibility to celebrate the momentous occasion.

Happy Birthday!

Sorry I can’t be there!

More Animal Stories From Down Under

2 Replies

Why is it that many of our animal tales come from Australia? Is it because they have more things that can kill you? Or maybe they have lots of cute animals, like koalas that would rather bite you than be kootchie-kooed under the chin?

Today’s tail (ha ha see what I did there?) comes from one of our alert readers, Barbara Bee. From the picture shared, it appears that Australian possums are much cuter than American ones.

Oh, possum, I identify with you!

I mean….who wouldn’t want to eat so many pastries you passed out? No? Just me?

Bob T sorry we were late today…not that kind of “late” Panda

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!

Bikkie is Thankful for Mister Poppee

As are we all.
I hope your day is filled with friends and family, as much or as many of them as you can stand. Also pie. There should be lots of pie. I continue to be grateful for all of you, who have chosen panda satire as The Thing That Gets You Through This Mess.

And if you are looking for Panda Satire things as we head in the season of credit card abuse, why not Buy Things With Pandas at my Redbubble shop!

And if you want to be able to read panda ‘toons when we no longer have electricity to read on your computer, may I suggest visiting the Panda Chronicles: The Books page, for links to get your very own copies of my various collections. They have the added benefit of being more organized into their story lines, as opposed to the random/hot off the drawing board way they are posted here. They make great presents too!

But now, one with today’s ‘toon!

That should come in handy, indeed!

Be the Bear and save some pie for me!
Bob T wif extra whippy cream please 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!

Bob T it’s probably going to get worse Panda

Pinky Learns Election Results

And reader, her reaction is about what you would expect it to be.

Every once in a while I have a tiny bit of trouble figuring out what the exit line of a ‘toon should be. And sometimes when that happens, a little voice comes down from the universe and tells me what it should be, and sometimes, someone writes a comment, which turns out to be the perfect line, and I appropriate it.

Which is what happened with today’s toon. So thanks, Jeannie!

We are going to need a REALLY big flyswatter.

Apologies for my Absence Yesterday

The problem with being a generally responsible person is, that when you flake off, everyone thinks something terrible happened. Nothing terrible happened. I just was having a kind of flaky couple of days, having recently returned from 2 weeks away, and then going to a two day workshop (which was a 3 day excursion in order to get there on time.)

I will have a new ‘toon for tomorrow. I thought about staying up late Monday night to finish, but all things considered, what with my high stress level the closer we get to the final voting day, I decided it would be better to go to bed and just…miss a day.

DID I MENTION EVERYONE SHOULD VOTE FOR KAMALA HARRIS AND TIM WALZ AND CHECK TO MAKE SURE YOUR BALLOT WAS RECEIVED IF YOU VOTED BY MAIL OR DROP BOX????

I mean…TFG keeps blasting out more hatefulness and racism and misogyny and Elmo husk says things like “Donny is going to put me in charge of the economy” and Roadkill Man is going to be in charge of health and food safety.

I DO NOT FEEL SAFE!!!!

Sigh…and then at one of his Reichstaad moments, TFG says something like “Hey have you heard about this one cool trick with Congress to over throw the election that no one wants you to know about but I can’t tell you because IT’S A SECRET! HEE HEE HEE!”

FFS

Here’s one of my favorite Bikkie ‘toons to tide you over till tomorrow.

I’m really hoping I get my wish.
Stay strong everyone.

Meanwhile, the Mittens is a Sleeze and financial/election cheat trial continues, with Eric getting the short straw in the “Take your Daddy to Court Day” competition between his family members.
