Lots of screenshots, posts of Christmas wrapping paper, thrifted Christmas stuff and a bunch of other Christmassy things. I used to post a ton of gifs from Christmas specials, but I haven't quite figured out how to do it best here yet...

Happy Birthday @carsjam.bsky.social! At least I think it's your birthday. Hope it's a great day regardless.

Apropos of nothing, Robert Goulet's personal website has been updated & includes all of the Christmas cards sent from 1982 to 2006 by him & his wife Vera. Sadly, not all as Christmassy as this one, but this is what the web was made for.

Lots of decent Christmas CDs at the thrift shop this morning, and I had three ready to go before I noticed they doubled their price to $4 each. Nah, I'm good, thanks. Good luck getting that from anyone for the ones I had picked out... Happy to miss out until people come to their senses, price-wise.

FYI I also post a whole bunch of Christmassy-type stuff over at Instagram (www.instagram.com/chrspecials/) if people are interested. I don't repeat myself on Facebook, Instagram & Bluesky, so I'm really not very efficient but I'm okay with it. I'd abandon two, but I can never quite decide which two.

Really interesting article. I also have a (far less mathematical) system of scoring adaptations that I’ll be revealing soon. Even then, we have some major differences. Check it out!

I love finding rare Christmas albums I've never seen before (and of course old classics too). I can't say how many copies of A Christmas Together I've bought, but when I see them clean and cheap, I pick them up.
