Listen Later

Welcome to Trends Daily—December 30th, 2025. The void. That liminal space between Christmas and New Year where time doesn't exist.
TikTok: "2025 Achievements Cake" (wholesome wins on sticky notes). "Landslide" carousels (20M uses—therapy in 60 seconds). "2026 Is the New 2016" (100M+ views—internet wants a reset year). "Things I'm Leaving in 2025" (catharsis as content). Labubu dolls in NYE edits (outlasted most governments this year). "Money in the Grave x Last Christmas" mashups (50M+ views).
X (Twitter): #HappyNewYear2025 (1.2M+ mentions). #CountdownCTW2025xZeeNuNew (450K+—Bangkok Countdown with JLo, Backstreet Boys). #HappyBirthdayTaehyung (BTS V—K-pop birthdays are national holidays). #年間ミュージックアワード2025 (Japan music awards). NFL aftermath (Bijan Robinson, Puka Nacua, Cam Coleman). Anthony Joshua boxing speculation.
YouTube: "2025 Viral Moments" compilations (Labubu, Coldplay kiss cam, Louvre heist memes, 6-7 trend). "Why 2026 Feels Like 2016" essays. SNL "In/Out for 2026" sketch (2M views—"In: AI Jake Paul. Out: Dubai chocolate overloads"). NYE prep content. K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack still charting.
Google: "New Year's Eve 2026 events" (up 500%). "2025 viral trends recap." "Labubu where to buy." "Viral video 2025." Cold NYE weather warnings—bundle up for the ball drop.
The Pattern: The Void + pre-NYE panic + Thai idol armies + nostalgia cycles. Tomorrow is the main event. Today is the calm before the countdown. One day until 2026.
