Will she or won’t she? A decision best made with cocoa!
Also posting tonight, my annual remembrance of Mehitabel, over on my Substack thingie!
Panda on!

A Pouty Pinky Ponders…

There is Only One True Mr. Bun
Pinky has a point, but it’s probably not the one she thinks it is.
Can we hope this year is not as bad as last year? Yeah…we can hope…
Catch up with Lunar New Years (with the Pandy Kindy) past over at my Substack! Celebrate Lunar New Year with the Panda Kindergarten! What could possibly go wrong?
Be the Bear!
Bob T nobody expects the panda kindergarten Panda
It’s almost Lunar New Year Time, and you know what THAT means!
It means Pinky thinks she is right about something!
And now Frank and Mikey will be ready for Easter Bunny duty!
It must be about 12 years (more or less) since I started posting Panda Satire online. Here is the original Year of the Bun ‘toon for those who have joined later.
Those pandas are such jokers!
Be the Bear!
Bob T quick like a bunny Panda
More Pookies! You Cannot Resist!
It is futile to resist the pookiness of the Pookies. Don’t even try!
It is a sad fact, that when bears come into contact with people, the bear is often the loser. When I visited the Calgary Zoo a few years ago (in the “before times”) their resident grizzly bear was a many times offender. They had his rap sheet posted outside his enclosure. He was one of the lucky ones. Instead of being killed for his many incursions on cars and garbage cans, there was a place for him at the Calgary Zoo, where he has lived a long and peaceful life.
Pookie Two’s mom, from Montana, was not so lucky. She had become habituated to grazing in garbage cans, and while we could only hope that she might eat a certain congresswoman from Colorado, she won’t get the chance. But don’t tell Pookie Two. She thinks her mom moved to a farm upstate. Do you want to be the one to tell her?
I didn’t think so.

Bob T I hardly ever eat out of trashcans Panda
The UnBEARable Cuteness of Pookies
I know I tend to re-use names. For the first couple years of my descent in to Pandaholism, all my panda stuffies were named “Bob”. We will try to differentiate between the Seattle Pookies, and Bikkie’s friend from Alaska, Pookie.
I’m sure we’ll manage!
And while I really hate leaving the island to go into civilization, I am determined to shepherd the Pookies at The Woodland Park Zoo through their cubbyhood! I know I should not bring this up, but we could be looking at a temporarily (we hope it’s just temporary) panda-less existence here in the US. Memphis’s pandas leave near the end of this year, and the Pandalanta Pandas and the DC pandas contracts are running out. There is still no word on whether pandas will return to SanDiego. The pandemic put a definite crimp in the budgets of the zoos and the US is not getting along particularly well with China.
We are going to have to fall in love with some different sorts of bears.
The Pookies just might be able to be the bears…
Panda On!
Bob T a bear by any other name Panda
Will this be the last time Mommee Mei tries to get Pinky to improve herself?
Unlikely…
She’s only letting Pinky THINK she is giving up trying to reform Pinky. Mommee Mei is relentless…kind of like Pinky.
Be the Bear
Bob T tomorrow is another day Panda
It’s a New Year! What the heck did you do with the old one?
Is Mommee trying to use psychology with Pinky?
Is it working?
Be the Bear
Bob T practically perfect Panda
The Year Is almost Over, So You Know What That Means
It means it’s time to make some New Year’s resolutions! Or is it?
I don’t know…is it really productive to look at all the ways you failed last year and say you’re going to fix those things, except you’ve been making the same resolutions for…oh, I don’t know…50 years and you haven’t done any of them yet?
Maybe I need to resolve more achievable goals. Like:
Eat more cake
Take more naps
Don’t sweat the small stuff
Embrace your inner Panda
What are you going to do next year? Who’s with me? Join the Cake Party!!!

Bob T pass the frosting Panda
Don’t forget to check out the finale of Beary Poppins! It’s over on my Substack Noozletter!
The Year is Wrapping Up! Say Buh-Bye to 2022!
Bob is ever hopeful!
Keep your Indictment Advent calendar handy!

You knew it wouldn’t be Christmas without…
The 12 Days of Crispmoss (in condensed form!)
Well, here we are, heading into the final days of the year. We have passed the solstice and the sunlight will be creeping back, a few seconds longer each day. It has been my privilege and joy to share these ‘toons with you. I kind of hoped we would be out of the pandemic days (not to mention the political nightmare we still can’t wake from) but here we are. (and here we are again!)
I hope these panda ‘toons have helped you get through whatever form your year has taken, and I plan to continue writing and drawing these ‘toons and sharing them with you.
Stay strong, stay safe, be kind, and don’t take any crap from the forces of darkness!
I hope you are able to safely gather with the people (and bears) you care about the most this holiday season, whatever you do or don’t celebrate! Save me some pie!
Be the bear!
Bob T Panda!
