artsy social media picks

My current understanding of the social-media “follower” concept has led me to stop following individuals who are appear to me not active on their accounts or not strong news/research sources. However, these ‘unworthy’ followers cannot be forgotten (by me). This means I need to write a Blog post to properly respect these voices instead of just throwing them away.
