lindagarcia+FollowWildest New Year’s Eve Traditions EverNew Year’s Eve isn’t just about champagne and countdowns—did you know some towns drop giant pickles, drag queens in heels, or even ceramic fleas at midnight? The midnight kiss is a total mystery, and in Spain, people race to eat 12 grapes in 12 seconds for good luck. Oh, and if you want extra luck, red underwear is a must in Italy and Spain. Which tradition would you try? #Culture #NewYearsEve #FunFacts00Share
Erin Wilson+FollowMorning-After-Christmas Traditions You’ll LoveEver wonder what everyone does the day after Christmas? Turns out, December 26 is packed with cozy, feel-good traditions from around the world. Think: leftover feasts for breakfast, epic board game marathons, Boxing Day shopping sprees, and even a family stroll to admire the last twinkle of holiday lights. Some folks use the day to donate old toys, binge holiday movies, or start prepping for New Year’s. Which tradition is a must in your house? #Culture #MorningAfterChristmas #HolidayTraditions00Share
Kevin Gregory+FollowCan You Guess the Festival by the Crowd?Ever tried to spot the festival just by looking at the crowd? From Coachella’s celeb-studded boho vibes to Glastonbury’s mud-splattered legends, each fest has its own signature look. Tomorrowland is basically Halloween in July, Bonnaroo channels Woodstock with tie-dye and peace signs, and EDC is a neon rave under the stars. The crowd’s style is half the fun—could you ID the fest from a single photo? #Culture #MusicFestivals #Coachella00Share

nhayes+FollowMacy’s Parade: The Celebrity Style You MissedIf you missed the 2025 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, you missed some serious style moments! Ciara brought Barbie-pink ski vibes, Teyana Taylor turned the parade route into a runway, and Cynthia Erivo gave us not one but two luxe winter looks (plus a sweet moment with Queen Latifah). Busta Rhymes and Lil Jon kept things festive with bold, cozy fits. Honestly, the fashion was as iconic as the floats! Who had your favorite look? #Culture #MacysParade #Thanksgiving10Share
Vincent Silva+FollowThanksgiving: The Real Story Behind the FeastDid you know the whole Pilgrims-and-Indians Thanksgiving story is only part of the truth? The real history is way more complicated—and way older! Indigenous peoples were holding harvest feasts and giving thanks centuries before the Pilgrims even landed. The classic story we tell now actually left out a ton of people and traditions, especially Native Americans. Next time you’re passing the cranberry sauce, remember: Thanksgiving is about more than just Plymouth Rock! #Culture #Thanksgiving #History00Share
Traci Smith+FollowWildest Macy's Parade Moments You MissedThe 2025 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade was a total rollercoaster! HUNTR/X and KPop Demon Hunters crushed it, Lil Jon turned up with Geoffrey the Giraffe, and Busta Rhymes rapped with the Ninja Turtles (yes, really). The Goldfish mini float was adorable, Pikachu’s tail deflated (justice for Pikachu!), and Al Roker’s surprise for a kid went hilariously sideways. Parade balloon handlers deserve a medal for saving Luffy and Goku from flying away. Already counting down to the 100th! #Culture #MacysParade #Thanksgiving90Share
Erin Wilson+FollowNBC’s Macy’s Parade Coverage Sparks OutrageAnyone else feel like NBC’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade was just one giant commercial break? Viewers were hyped for new floats like Shrek and K-Pop Demon Hunters, but barely got to see them thanks to endless ads and chatty hosts. Reddit was on fire with complaints, and people started sharing links to alternative streams that actually showed the parade. Next year, I’m skipping NBC and going straight to the AP YouTube livestream for the real deal! #Culture #MacysParade #NBC358308Share
