Social media effect, the odds are not in your favour. Comparing your random pictures to the best pictures of thousands of other people combined into one entity.

Mathematically, you shouldn't be able to randomly happen accross even one picture that compares, let alone is better than any one of the top rated posts on a social media site.

Having said that, pictures of a cat you care about automatically get bonus points to you and you'll like your pictures way more than what are effectively the equivalent of super model cats you don't have any investment in.

Your cat is adorable

[–] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He looks so concerned! I love him and hope whatever he's worried about works out for him.

[–] ComfyMuffin@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I often question why he looks so anxiety-ridden all the time, as his day job is napping and property destruction.

look at your cat in the eyes and close your eyes slowly and leave them closed.

Reminds me of Andrew Tate going to jail for some reason.

This cat needs all the hugs, send him to my place, I'll hook him up.

This is my cat. He just bites random shit all day.

[–] cloudless@feddit.uk 6 points 1 year ago

Your cat gets more upvotes. He knows the social media game.

[–] RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

He wants you to see his eyes

[–] jecht360@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I've spent a lot of time trying to get good photos of my rabbits; it requires a good bit of persistence to get those nice pet photos.

[–] VindianaJones@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I mean, I like yours better.

Pov: when your cat is equally depressed like you

He is too suprised at all times.

Oh don't worry he has a collage education and trying to pay off his debt

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

This cat is obviously not trying to sell me something.
