It’s been 12 months of news cycles that felt like an emotional bootcamp, social media posts that swung between chaos and crisis, and endless to-do lists that many of us still haven’t come close to completing. We can only hope that the year will wind down gracefully and allow us to close this chapter with a collective sigh of relief.

To give it a nudge, we’re about to unleash a powerful reset button, in the form of a bunch of funny and surprisingly wholesome memes. They’ve been hiding in a little corner of the internet where kindness and goodness reign supreme. A place where more than 719,000 people gather to reassure each other that the world isn’t always as bad as it seems. The Facebook page Wholesome Memes is a wall of uplifting content aimed at sparking joy and brightening the darkest of days.

So without any further ado, Bored Panda now presents the best posts from the page… May they serve as a reminder that 2025, despite its lows, also brought us many smiles and moments that we didn't always expect.

That would have been very funny if the OP had tried a little harder at photoshop. The text is mostly on top of the crinkles in the fabric.

    That's why they invented pet screen. Also now that we don't have cats to scare them off in the spring when the young squirrels venture out on their own and discover the bird food around our patio they inevitably climb the screen and get scared and just cling there looking around like WTH did I just do? 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

    This one is cute but I have found you should never tell anyone yours especially at work because there are some psychopaths out there. Sometimes even telling your allergies is dangerous.

    My cat is very picky. She suddenly stops eating the very brands she was eating all the time. Last month we collected all the boxes and donated it to the rescue centre from where we got her.

    I am 11 weeks pregnant and only started getting morning sickness this week, now all I can stomach is the most plain food. I hope I don't get weird cravings though, there is so much I'm allergic/intolerant to and it's already so hard to resist!

    I know it's the general name, but all I could hear while reading this was my dad's voice saying 'that's not a crowbar, that's a jemmy' (he is Aussie, so sounds similar to crocodile dundee's voice I guess).
