Galahad Gets Ready for Christmas - Cosy ASMR Animation

 This is a charming ASMR video of Galahad the Fox hosting a quiet Christmas get together.  It reminds me of Stop Motion animation. But I think it's AI.

 A lovely Victorian setting. Reminds me of ' Little Women's ' Jo March and Professor Bhaer. Or maybe Amy and Laurie? I prefer Jo and her professor.

 HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, CHARLIE BROWN!!!! 

Yes, on December 9, 1965 on CBS was the first broadcasting of A Charlie Brown Christmas. This partnership lasted for 35 years ending in 2000. A Charlie Brown Christmas began broadcasting on ABC on December 6, 2001 and ending on  December 17, 2019.

 By October of 2020, somebody decided to sell their soul to the devil and Apple TV+. Giving Apple exclusive rights to Peanuts media, including A Charlie Brown Christmas. Ending a 54 year run on network television. This being said, A Charlie Brown Christmas and the other holiday specials have to be made available for free on the platform for a three day period. Apparently these terms go through to 2030. Hopefully Charlie Brown will return to broadcast television. 🤞

                                 MERRY 

                              CHRISTMAS 

                           CHARLIE BROWN

 Starting with Prada A/W 2025. 

Prada A/W 2025
Trying to cross an elegant coat with 
a bomber jacket. Bomber jacket for the win.

Prada A/W 2025
Very much a 1960s walk of shame feel, but 
without the shame.
I love it.

Now for the Versace A/W 2025looks

Colorful. Slight '80s vibe with the miniskirt 
and leggings 

Stark look with that surprising yellow.

Sexy is all I can say

   This one is a doozy, but it works. Of course it would work because it is another Bill McClintock Mashups video. I swear he is a genius. Without further ado, his latest creation.. Ozzy Osbourne and Hall & Oates ( Bobby Helms) " Mamma I'm Jingling My Bells". Told you it was a doozy. 🎄
