I have left Twitter
🕑 Added 2025-01-22 05:39:53 +0000 UTCI've not been posting art on Twitter since November last year, and I've now stopped posting there altogether.
I was hoping all my friends and colleagues in the nsfw art world would move to other platforms, and many did. For the few who are left, hopefully now they will get the message that they either go elsewhere or I can't keep in contact.
Twitter has been on a long decline for ten years, which took a sharp downwards turn in the last two.
Any kind of valuable post gets deboosted. All that are left untouched are stolen content farms, rage baiters, and nazis.
Abuse and bigotry are celebrated. Even saying the word "cis" or "cisgender" is automatically blocked, but the n word isn't.
Elon Musk is a nazi, a fascist, a white supremacist, and a dumb fucking cunt.
He supports far right and racist causes around the world, defends far right and racist people when they are rightly condemned, and repeats far right and racist ideas and talking points.
Because of his present character and beliefs, I'm not interested in pretending his two nazi salutes at Trump's inauguration ceremony were anything but what they obviously fucking were. We've been here before. Let's stop with the bullshit.
If Elon ever fucks off, and Twitter becomes viable again for business and sane people, I may return. But Bluesky is so much better at this point, I don't see that happening any time soon.
Follow me on Bluesky, hang out in the Lustyverse Discord , and join my Patreon!

The downfall of Twitter has been so sad.
