LRP this wildly extends to everything else online too, let's not act like it's just about sexual and/or erotic interests

We really need to bring back “dont yuck my yum.“ Perfect idea, encourages mutual respect and civility, but this obsession with policing others’ sexual desires and calling earnest erotic expression cringe… we’re doing the fascists’ work for them. Respect difference in preference

but for real I genuinely hope during this year people finally fucking stop taking face value of smear campaigns and moral panics over simple kinks of (mainly) queer people as the world wants to erase us.

For further context twitter added a button that allows users to generate ai images using existing art posts from artists. It removes glaze and it basically reskins the artwork by using the existing work as a base. Twitter is no longer a safe space for art

Verity, a portrait commission for @thirteenchimes.bsky.social 🖤

[ #art #commissions ]
A painterly portrait of a fierce-looking tiefling with a pair of thick grey horns and bright, dot-like markings on her face. Her irises are blue against black scleras and the bangs of her white hair are drawn down the sides of her face; she has a long braid that's draped over her shoulder. The character, Verity, belongs to @thirteenchimes.bsky.social.

I haven’t been active, but you know how it is… the longer you put something off, the harder it is to come back.

Watercolour and coloured pencil on hot-press Saunders, 7x10”.

I tried to edit the frame in post, but figured the little imperfections look nicer 🌹

I hate how everything is now becoming a scam or a conspiracy and people are more outwardly cynical but I also hate how everyone now thinks everything is scam or conspiracy and assumes no one is sincere anymore

the overwhelming excitement of adulthood: getting scared shitless first due to your paychecks exceeding the annual taxing limit and then learning that every single shift you have in december will count towards next year's taxes 😭

I am going to take every shift my little bum can HANDLE this month!!!

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"
