Cute little guy

After careful consideration, my crew is happy to announce that the adorable Honey Badger is now an honorary member of #TeamHopelessCreatures #TeamHoneyBadger #2026MMM

#TeamHopelessCreatures ftw #2026MMM

#TeamHopelessCreatures ftw
Pick your winners and losers from the heart, I say #2026MMM

Carl the bat is also a recurring #TeamHopelessCreatures character (sigh)

Anyway, my March Mammal Madness bracket strategy is pure chaos. I did pick Polar Bear and Puma to make the Championship. There comes a point where you have to pick your champion, even if it is a lost cause. I cheered #TeamMurderMittens to the end knowing that it was #TeamHopelessCreatures #2025MMM

I only did a dozen or so #TeamMurderMittens memes while I nursed the morning coffee. Hard to believe that 150 pounds of tawny muscle and fur are in the #TeamHopelessCreatures category, but here we are. I can only hope that #MMMRNG1 delivers a desert sky island habitat #2025MMM

No, really, this was EXACTLY the right amount of Joey CARNAGE #TeamHopelessCreatures #2025MMM #TeamMurderMittens

The prophecy is fulfilled

Unless figs are involved, #TeamMurderMittens is going to have Quokka as a light snack. Let's have some MMMMagic so they can both survive and advance

I suddenly love the Moonrat. Introverts unite, little buddy.

Confession: I was rooting for Fig-Eating Bat but placed Coati to win this round. Did I expect it to eat Carl and delight the audience with absolutely brutal mammal-on-mammal carnage?

I mean, the narrator is a bat scientist! Unexpected!

Imagine no SAD or waiting for our Sith Panda friend to wake up and smell the potatoes #TeamHopelessCreatures #TeamMarmot #2025MMM

Marmot may be a 16-seed hopeless critter, but we wish it the best for a dramatic journey to Valhalla. Please give it carnage befitting of its status, #2025MMM narrators.
