Twitter is experiencing a worldwide outage affecting their web platform that prompts users to logout and prevents them from accessing tweets.
The outage began at around noon EST and only affects the web/desktop version of Twitter, not the mobile platform.
As you can see from the image below, this page indicates that you are currently logged in to Twitter.
As you use the site, Twitter will sometimes indicate that you are not logged in and prompt you to do so.
Twitter's support account has not posted any status updates explaining this outage, and the Twitter status page does not show any errors.
This is a developing story, and we will update it as more information becomes available.
