It is most unfair of the Republicans to offer arguments so absurd, that it becomes hard to make fun of them.
This makes perfect sense to me!
Try to panda on!

Before we start on our last installment of the Year in Review, I want to express my thanks to all who made the Tiny Panda Kickstarter project such a success! I am already hard at work making little needle felted pandas. Once all the Kickstarter paperwork is done, and the boxes and other panda shipping materials have arrived, I will start sending each group out as they are completed over the next 4-6 months. Part of me wishes I could have a class photo of all the completed pandas together, but in addition to the packing and shipping chaos that would cause, with the national stress level predicted to skyrocket in the next, oh, say 11 months, y’all are going to need to have these pandas as much as I need to make them.
Well, the trial of the Century has started. It has the predictable lines drawn: long, careful, evidence packed testimony by the Democratic House Managers, and loud lies and obfuscations by the tRUmp lawyers. The defense straddles between “He didn’t do it,” and “it’s not a crime if he did,” not to mention, “you don’t have enough evidence” (because “we blocked you from getting it.”)
Sigh…
It’s been a long time coming. Hope he’ll be a looooong time gone!
All together now!
If Pinky wins the 2020 election, can we have panda-gate?
“crime” is not a verb
Oh no! There are no pandas in this cartoon!
Our favorite grizzlies are doing “The Bus”!
Obeying Pinky is not in the Consditooshun!
Not even Pinky is above the law. And if SHE isn’t, then Mittens sure as heck isn’t either!
A bear can dream, am I right?
So, That’s our year in review! We hope you enjoyed this look back over the last 12 months and really (really) hope we survive the next 12!
Panda On!

AS if Minch McTurtle trying to derail democracy isn’t bad enough, (more from Minch soon!) Mr. Bun is MISSING!!!

I’m sure everyone one has a favorite movie, that they have found relevant quotes for many situations in life. I have several, including Casablanca and The Wizard of Oz, but the one that has the most useful quotes in MANY situations for me, is The Big Liebowski. I didn’t see this movie when it originally came out, but since discovering it, I watch it regularly (It’s one of a handful of movies I own discs of) and Mr. Badger and I quote it almost constantly.
Last week when Rachel Maddow was interviewing Live Parnas, I kept yelling at my iPand, “New s**t has come to light!!!!!” And wouldn’t ya know, when I was listening to The Daily Beans today, they played the audio clip from the movie of Jeff Bridges (aka the Dude) saying that very line! So there! It IS the perfect line for these perilous times!
Settle your fur down, Bob!

Two notes on things other than the year in review posts:
First, I was alerted to an excellent newsletter by Heather Cox Richardson, writing about the legal and political issues of the day, in a very readable, clear manner. (In other words, if I can understand what the hell she’s talking about, pretty much anyone can.) I highly recommend subscribing to her news letter. If nothing else, maybe it will keep me out of the Twidder trenches so I can get some work done. We’re in for a wild ride, panda fans! Here’s to hoping we all survive it!
Second, my Tiny Panda Kickstarter is going swimmingly! It ends this Friday at 5 PM PST, so if you wee thinking about getting a tiny panda (or two) of your own, this is the week. There are still several panda rewards available, and should you want more than one there is both a two panda reward, or you can add another panda to the reward selected. Just message me here via the Contact Us form, or the Kickstarter message system.
Don’t (*snorf*) look like food!
*snorf*
Pinky and her new minions get down to serious business
Made by the same highly scientific company as the Cute-o-Meter!
Don’t get mad. Get even.
It does not pay to be late! You don’t want to flunk cake again, do you, Boo Boo?
Mittens: a disgrace to cat-hood
bears will be bears!
See ya next week with some new ‘toons and the wrap up of our Hold Me Closer Tiny Panda Kiscktarter!
Panda On!

These ‘toons previously appeared on The Panda Chronicles in July/August/September of 2019
Geez…new s**t has come to light!!! Can you believe all the information that is hitting the ether? Thank goodness I have so many little pandas to felt! (you are not too late! Check it out HERE!)
Sorry I’m “late”
Reality is scary!!!

New designs coming to Redbubble:
Beeeeeeeee!
Pinky!
Well, we really dodged a terrible disaster! Yesterday, Friday the 13th came on a MONDAY!!!!! Um…I never actually admitted that my sense of humor has ever risen beyond that of a 7th grader, so, ya know…whatebber!
Meanwhile, my tiny panda Kickstarter has been chugging right along! I started making needle felted pandas because I needed a hobby that was kind of stress reducing. So what did I do? I turned it into a major production. I guess that’s just the kind of bear I am! Fortunately, I love repetitive tasks, and if needle felting is anything, it has a lot of repetition. Also fortunately, I can imagine I am stabbing certain people who must not be named right through the heart! Fun for the whole family!
Mommee Mei, in her wisdom, thought Pinky needed a co-host!
Panda on ebbryone!

Before we dive in to our Year in Review encore presentation, can I just say OH MY FRIGGING GOD!!!! The tiny panda (Hold me closer tiny panda) Kickstarter reached its goal amount 13 minutes after launching. I am astounded with gratitude for this response. It also was listed as a Kickstarter Project We Love most of the day on Friday. Needless (or needle-less) to say, I have a lot of felting to do over the coming months. If you are afraid you missed your favorite panda, check back at the project, because I added some more reward categories!
Thank you again, from deep within my heart. I can’t wait to get these pandas to you! (After I make them of course!) This has the added benefit of getting to visit the Abundant Earth Fiber store again, which may now be called my happy place!
it was a total coincidence that Babette’s ‘toon should run today.
Moove over! You’re crowding me!
Look who’s here!
If you go out in the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise!
Who could have done this????
Did I just see what I thought I saw?
Bwahahahaha!
So, Mikey…how was the Grand Ol’ Opry?
Will these two ever get along?
Well, that’s it for today’s wrap up! See ya real soon!
Panda on!

Today is the day! At approximately 10 AM today I’ll be launching the felty panda (Hold me closer tiny Panda) over on Kickstarter today! While you’re waiting, should I remind you why we all need emotional support pandas?
I can totally see you know who doing this.
See ya soon!
Or should I say” wake me when all this is over?”
Be da Bear!

Well, except for me, unless that means I’m not anybody! One of my favorite podcasts is Pod Save America, which bills itself as “a political podcast for people who aren’t ready to give up or go insane”. Another is The Daily Beans, (News with Swearing) by the women who brought us Mueller She Wrote. Between these podcasts, and listening to the podcast version of Rachel Maddow, I am able to stay informed and outraged, even without a television!
BTW, it is a mere two days before I unleash my felty panda Kickstarter on the world! You can get a preview here, and sign up for launch time notification! Huzzah!
Panda on everyone
