An incessant flow of toxic information is making us tragically dumb and miserable. Pop-ups, notifications, the media, fake news, unverified claims, injunctions, conspiracy theories... All these nuggets of data end up crowding our headspaces. This in turn makes us lose our sense of priority, our ability to think critically, our creativity, our ability to relate, and dangerously erodes our free will.Through her personal story of mental overwhelm, Sasha takes the reader on a journey to explore this phenomenon of headspace invasion; discussing its contributing factors, making an inventory of toxic information, and describing their compounded effects. Part intimate account, part essay, part manifesto, Headspace Invaders invites readers to wake up from their drowning in these toxic currents and recover their inner voice. Falling short of that, it should at least provide some form of catharsis.
