The winner's trick to social media is to package your debilitating sorrow with a witty punchline, making it seem jaunty and urbane rather than pathetic and off-putting.
@AbandonedAmerica If you can manage all that & randomly add a pic of you holding a cat or even just a photograph of a cat next to your camera you will have pulled off the elusive interwebs trifecta.
((bonus points if it’s actually your cat extra extra extra points if they’re well loved & cute. Fediverse nerd points for any device image)
Minor example: my cat, stupidly well loved , my jewelry (handmade points LoL)

@Pineywoozle super cute cat, and the jewelry is really neat. What's it made of?
@AbandonedAmerica LoL thanks Fred’s our giant rescue baby. I’ve had terriers who weighed less. I use an aircraft aluminum alloy. Light weight enough to make large wearable earrings and just ductile enough to chase with a small jewelers ball peen hammer but not lose the crisp hammer strikes or scratch easily.
