I’m having a good morning because my press release to the National Communication Association newsletter was just sent out a little bit ago, and so that’s thousands of intellectuals, including all my mentors, and that editor who brushed off this project, who will know that my book exists now 🌻🐦⬛
In a world where many feel disconnected and overwhelmed, Dr. Bernadette Bowen's book, We Are F**king Machines, addresses the pressing issues surrounding loneliness and societal change even before the COVID-19 pandemic. This publication presents a deep dive into the psychological effects of living in a digitally dominated environment, outlining how misinformation and disinformation have contributed to a broader sense of isolation among individuals. The concept of a 'sex apocalypse' reflects societal shifts where intimacy and connection are waning, impacting our mental and physical health. Dr. Bird highlights that traditional notions of intelligence must evolve to understand better the complex layers of connection in the digital age. The book aims to provide readers with insightful perspectives on how to navigate and reclaim their emotional and relational well-being against the backdrop of a rapidly changing society. Readers will find practical advice and philosophical inquiries that challenge the current narratives around technology, relationships, and personal fulfillment. In this context, We Are F**king Machines not only sheds light on contemporary issues but also aims to empower readers to foster deeper connections and awareness in their lives.
