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 10 months 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 10 months ago

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