Happy April Fool’s Day, otherwise known as Day 71 of F45’s 2nd Reign of Terror

There hardly seems like there could be an April Fool’s Day joke that would reach the absurdity of everything we are currently living through, but here we are. Alas, the weekend got away from me again (too many naps, too much cake…you know how that goes) so once again, I must dip into the archives for your entertainment today.

One little point of discussion after last week’s ‘toon, starring Frank and Mikey, with a discussion of some vital NooZ. It was pointed out to me that the story they told was NOT A REAL STORY! and I have some thoughts about that. First I made several references to Andy Borowitz, a well known writer of satire, who…um…broke this story. Secondly, have you learned NOTHING over the time since Frank and Mikey made their way onto the scene? When have they EVER said anything that is true? I mean…if Mehitabel had introduced the story, there is a 80%-20% chance that the story would be true, but as Frank and Mikey are the bearsonification of unreliable narrators, one would be well advised to never believe anything they say. Just ask Josie!

Meanwhile, back at the zoo…

A recent (real) NooZ story that Elmer’s incels are turning their attention to The Smithsonian and THE ZOO to root out fraud and “improper ideology“… I felt moved to redo a little of the dialog from this classic from Pinky’s first campaign to be presydent…

IMPROPER IDEOLOGY my ass! I mean…Pinky isn’t even there anymore!

It really fits, doesn’t it? Now…on with a little Panda Foolery…

“It was dark….there were men in masks….”

No nonsense to be found here! See how important the Smithsonian is?

I hope you enjoyed this romp down memory lane!

Oops! Another week where I was too busy gallivanting around to get Tuesday’s ‘toon done, but never fear. I would not leave you without some entertainment! For your consideration, I have dug into to the archives to share some ‘toons from…the Pinky Zone!

He’s small for now, but Bubba Bei Bei is shaping up to be a whole lot of panda!

Oh Princess Pinky, mom has a trick or two up her paw, I think…

You say you want a resolution, well, you know, it is hard to change a bear….

Could Mama Mei Xiang really be contemplating letting Pinky loose on the pandy kindy?

“How does you spell ‘hostage’?” hee hee hee!

Baby Pinky is kind of my favorite! I hope this will bring a smile to your face until we figure out what we’re doing on Thursday!

Bob T it’s not like there is anything else going on, is there? Panda

Some Stuff from the Archives

It’s another one of those weeks that has too much too do and not enough time to do everything that needs doing, so I’m going to blindfold myself and stick my hand into the old archives and see what I can find. Maybe I’ll have a new ‘toon for Thursday, maybe not. Definitely for next week, though!

I think we need something that will make us laugh, something to take our minds of that power mad mongrel that would be king.

Maybe something about another power hungry character….

I really had no idea what she was up to.

Bubba is having so much fun with his new friends!

And just to remind you, we knew 9 years ago how terrible it would be if You Know Who was ever elected even the FIRST time!!!

We are afraid. Honest.
Pinky: you should have voted for me.

Panda-ing Into the Apocalypse (Part 3697)

Once again the day got away from me, so enjoy this bonus edition of gems from the archive. Offerings from Februarys past…

I *may* have attended a small but sincere protest gathering in Langley yesterday.

In fact, not only was as bad as we thought it would be, it was worse.

And 2025 version 2.0 of the F45 regime is worse still.

Unka Rusty has some seriously feisty opinions!

The Red Panda resistance will not be denied!

Alas…

What’s a day without a visit from Pinky? (or Six and Sebben?)

Let’s face it. Things are getting really bad and they are going to get worse. Oh crap, I was trying not to say that, but it just slipped out. I’ll be back on Thursday, with the finished ‘toon I thought I’d get done today. Best laid plans and all.

If you need a really good laugh, please enjoy this SNL skit with some really star talent being as funny and raunchy as you could not believe. Woody Harrelson trying to keep from busting out laughing is priceless.

There Has To Be A Morning After

There was some event happening in DC yesterday, but I didn’t pay any attention to it. More exciting events were happening cross town, over in Pandyland. Binky Li napped and ate for his fans, QB climbed trees and waved to her subjects. I eagerly await the return of the Panda Cam.

We’re not going to be able to ignore what is going on across town, at least not completely. We all need to do what we can to resist falling into despair, as that is exactly what “they” want you to do. But no matter how many naps we need to take, we will resist! Every act of resistance, no matter how small, is still resistance. (Like reading the Panda Chronicles, especially when we make fun of F45)

And Now, Back to Our Story!

When last we saw the gang over in China, Six and Sebben had arrived to “visit” their favorite* cousins! Being a responsible mommee and auntie, Mei Xiang decided she should check in with her sister…

*Favorite in the sense of all their other cousins have gone into witness protection programs and Lun Lun can’t find their addresses.

Alas, the Day We Have Been Dreading Approaches

Once again, I have not gotten the ‘toon for today done, but it will be ready for Tuesday. As is now my new practice, when other work (or excessive naps) gets in the way of me finishing the days ‘toon in time to get it posted, I will dive into the archives and find a few relevant ‘toons to bridge the gap till next time.

And boy do we have relevant ‘toons!

Since HWMNBN (aka F45*) is about to lie about upholding the oath to the Constitution again, I thought I’d share a few ‘toons from January of 2017. It’s gonna be a rough ride ahead. We can’t afford to check out entirely (as much as I would like to,) but we do need to be gentle with ourselves and engage in things that make us happy. I worked most of the day in my studio, and then got close to an hour in my garden before it started getting dark around 5. This is definitely an improvement over getting dark at 3:30.

So, without further ado, let’s ride the armored car down memory lane, as we remember Mitten’s first reign of terror!

Just a reminder to turn off your TV and internet on Monday, the 20th, to protest F45’s return to the WH. Nothing will piss him off more than seeing the terrible TV ratings, and to have the streets practically empty.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. But I hope the following photograph from the 2017 Women’s March held in Langley gives you a bit of hope. Despite the fact that many people (I think there were 4 buses full) went into Seattle for the much bigger march, lots of people came out on that sunny Saturday to stand against F45.

*F45 stands for Felon 45

Women’s March, Langley edition! There were many more people already around the corner, and more behind us. Let’s capture some of that hope for our future. We can at least go down swinging.

We MUST Panda On!

I could not leave you just wondering over the weekend!

6 Replies

Many of you guessed who Pinky’s visitors were. If you didn’t guess from the knocking and doorbell, you need some remedial Panda Chronicles reading. Go ahead…do it now, I’ll wait…

Just kidding!

Yep! SIX AN’ SEBBEN ARE IN DA HOUSE!!!!

On a more serious note, My heart goes out to all those in or with family in L.A. Fire is devastating…no way around that. Those of you who (like me) have lived through a house fire, knows how life shattering it is, sometimes literally. But I can’t imagine the magnitude of this fire. I hope the death toll is not as high as the Paradise fire. But these big fires… there is no way anyone can imagine this.

There was some good news today: the Supremes declined to let Felon45 off the hook as regards his sentencing in the Manhattan business fraud case. And the 11th circuit says the report from Jack Smith can be released. We will hope that the purloined documents/espionage case report will be released soon too.

I hope you all are safe and well
Keep panda-ing on

The More Things Change…Fear and Loathing in the Panda House

I guess Mommee Mei decided it was pointless to give Pinky any resolutions this year…or maybe, she is planning to surprise her at a date TBA later…

Meanwhile…

Who could be so rude as to knock like that?

Does anyone have a guess?

Part 2 of our Encore Presentation of our Holiday Classic, Beary Poppins!

Let’s get our popcorn and hot chocolate and watch part 2 of Beary Poppins!

Gosh I really hate to leave you on this cliffhanger for the weekend, but…

Bikkie loves Beary Poppins! Also Rory the Dinosaur by Liz Climo

I think Biscuit and Beary Poppins are forming a real bond!

A promise is a promise, even among grizzly bears!

I was afraid there would be yelling…so much yelling!

Wasn’t that fun? Did you forget reality for a little while? I know I did!

Here’s the thing: we have to keeping remembering there is joy in creativity, in art, in stories, in dancing around the room singing along with Taylor Swift. The Panda Chronicles might not be as popular as Tay Tay, but we believe in the joy that pandas and friendship bring. We are going to need all the joy we can muster to stand up to the dark forces that are coming.
