That’s right! Today is the day my Kickstarter project starts!
That Ping Ping is a clever liddle bear, isn’t he?
Don’t believe EVERYTHING the panda kindergarten says!
Panda on!

What WON’T Pinky try, to get possession of Bubba’s Banky Pig? He has been carefully saving his money so that he can go visit his friends Yip and Jip, now that they have moved to Calgary. But Bubba’s friend and sidekick Ping Ping has a plan, a cunning plan!
Ping is definitely the clever one! What did he say to Bubba?
Meanwhile, we are just a couple days away from launching our Kickstarter campaign! Be ready on Thursday at Noon PST! Pinky awaits!
Be the Bear!

…The Year of the Banky Pig! Huzzah! Yes, the Lunar New Year, known also as Chinese New Year is coming soon. How soon? I don’t know, Auntie Lucilla…how soon is it? And since in the Chinese Astrology, each year is signified by an animal, changed on a twelve year cycle. This year is the Year of the Pig. (Bubba: dat’s BANKY PIG!!!!!!)
To whom do we file a complaint about this obvious error?
Look out Bubba! Pinky is trying to get her paws on Banky Pig!
Panda On!

Actually, right now it is Wednesday night, but another big windstorm is headed my way, and as the last one knocked my electricity out for almost 5 days, I thought I would get this scheduled before it goes dark here.
Since HWMNBN has decided to blow up the budget deal and shut the goobermint down (AGAIN!!!!!) I thought you would appreciate some of Bubba’s greatest hits to get you through the shutdown. We can only hope for the sake of people who aren’t getting a paycheck because of this, that by the time this posts, it will all be over. I am not optimistic.
He’s small for now, but Bubba Bei Bei is shaping up to be a whole lot of panda!
Feed me, Mama!
Happy 100th day Birthday! More frosting!
What the well dressed panda cub is wearing this season!
…or as Bubba says, “dis. not. stan!”
And then there was the day he had to figure out what to wear for his debut…
I didn’t THINK that Pinky knew the “share” word.
Panda on like it’s 1999!

Hmmm…not so that I can tell. There is a great essay by Anne Lamott, about not making pointless resolutions for the new year, like…um…losing weight. Pandas are gonna panda, am I right? And part of being pandy is…um…being pandy, so enough with that!
That said, I do like to make goals every year, primarily to focus myself on the work I want to accomplish during the year. I only occasionally look at my list once I’ve written it, but I find the act of writing things down, with a pen on paper, and sharing them with another artist friend of mine in our annual ritual, does help me keep on track. And when I do revisit the list, I find that I have done much of it.
I’m also going to tweak the schedule here a bit…
New cartoons will post on Tuesdays and Thursdays, at a little later in the morning than I have been posting them. Encore presentations will appear on Sundays instead of Fridays. Other than than, everything will be exactly the same. (Except with maybe some indictments and more resignations from the Mittens WH) Pinky will still torment her brother; Bubba will still strain the seems of his overalls. mei xiang will despair of ever getting Pinky to behave, and Mehitabel will still rule from her heavenly post. You’ll get used to it.
Bubba: my resolution was just to chew my food more, an’ mebbee not eat so much frosting.
Ping: ping!
Panda on!

Yep, we have lived through another 31 Days of Pandas, and for this (and the previous 2 years), I think I can speak for us all when I say that we really needed a little pandish hilarity.
Nobody parties like a panda!
The panda kindergarten at their best…or is that worst?
Is 2019 going to be any better?
Nah, probably not.
Panda on anyway
Bob T Panda
What a great 31 Days of Pandas this has been! I hope you’ve had fun and that at least for a few moments you forgot about the complete s*#*show was going on in our nation’s capitol. Oh…um..sorry. I didn’t mean to remind you.
Sad Turtle, Too Much McConnell has much to answer for.
Wasn’t there something during the campaign of 2016 about NOT using private emails and devices?
Love in the Time of Mittens (which, quite frankly, is a lot like the time of cholera)
31 Days of Pandas. You know you want this!
We all kind of feel like this, Pinky.
Panda like it’s 1999!

Ah, November! The year 2018 is winding down to its final conclusion. Indictments are swirling about the Christmas tree like fat, fluffy snowflakes. The clink of Jacob Marley’s chains can be heard in the deserted halls of the White House.
But Hope flutters anew, if feebly, in the hearts all who love justice and fairness for the most vulnerable in the world. But make no mistake. There have been tragic losses mixed among the election victories. New energy, new ideas will inhabit the halls of Congress when the next Congress is seated in January. But children who have traveled across dangerous paths are either denied entry or placed in prisons, for the crime of being for poor countries.
Seriously, don’t forget to vote!
Cats, on the other hand, weren’t paying attention to you anyway.
Send in the bears!
Helloooooo bears!
I like bears.
Panda on!
Bob T Panda
Well, well, well. HWMNBN has shut down the government. My sympathy goes out to the 100’s of thousands of people who won’t be getting a paycheck until this is resolved. Does #Individual1 care? I’m sure he hasn’t given it a thought. He seems to think the money that is “saved” by not paying people can be used for his wall.
But we have more important fish to fry. And of course, I mean, looking back at what was piquing the interest of the forces of panda satire, in the month of October. Has it really only been 2 months?
Can’t ghosts have opinions too?
Um…maybe he could be Individual 1’s Chief of Staff!
“And they called ME a crook!”
Stop the chaos and VOTE!!!
Make sure Pinky doesn’t try to steal Bubba and Ping’s candy!
Panda on!
Bob T Panda
Oh my! I have survived power outages, the beginnings of the goobermint shutdown, and the destruction of the rule of law. If you haven’t watched SNL’s “It’s a Wonderful Trump” do it now! It’s almost as good as “It’s a WUnderful Life” (It doesn’t have pandas, but hey! not everyone can have pandas.)
I am so happy that all of you are here, following along with The Panda Chronicles! It is my privilege to share these ‘toons with you every week, and plan to continue until they drag me away. Hopefully, it won’t come to that, but I can’t imagine that I’ll “tone it down.”
Anyway…let’s get on with the final episode of…
Mebbee Bubba isn’t going to let Pinky push him around anymore. Yeah. Right.
Panda on!
