I'm begging any artists still using Twitter claiming it's integral to their work to just leave. It's been revealed the site works off a made up "credit score" from hell and punishes you for posting like a normal human being.

Abandon Twitter for good. It's time. It's been time.

A quoted tweet from a user named Sam that reads: "How Twitter is rigged
Type in all caps because you're excited? Lowers your reputation. Include links? Your score goes down. It's like the Credit Score system from Hell.
And given Cisgender is treated as a slur & MAGA boosted, you can guess what's categorized as 'offensive'"

The tweet they quoted is from user SADIQ and reads:
"Tweepcred is X's reputation system
Based on your behavior, you get a tweepcred score
It determines your reach
Break the algo rules, you score goes down and your reach disappears
What are the rules of the X algo tho? Glad you asked."

SADIQ includes a photo of Twitter's algorithm code that calculates a user's reputation.

SADIQ continues:
"Post 'offensive text'? 80% reach reduction
Offensive username? 80% reach reduction
All caps tweet? That's seen as 'shouting. Major penalization.
Include links? Yup, penalized"

The "Bed Series" was a set of intimate portraits of lesbian sex workers made by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in the 1890s behind the scenes at a Parisian brothel.

"you're an art model does that mean you're NAKED?"
"yeah"

idk who started the idea that life drawing classes have anything sexy going on like. there's at least ten people in the room and we're all tired and covered in charcoal.
the dude in front who's staring at my boobs has been trying to get the shading right for 10 minutes. he's almost out of paint. he is crying.

i have to take up space as a black person and create black art out of passion so other black creatives know they are appreciated along with non black audiences being able to learn about our culture on an intimate and personal level than have it regurgitated through a white person's lenses.
