I wrote on the meteoric rise and narcissistic fall of Chris Smalls for Jacobin. Smalls shot to prominence for playing a key role in the shock union win at a New York Amazon warehouse. But in the years since, his own ego has overwhelmed his political contributions.

Town of Mount Shasta feels like the capital of granola fascism. New age people lowkey scare me. I remember as a kid, I’d stay at my grandparents a lot & they had cable, which exposed me to a shitton of Discovery/History Channel slop about Bigfoot which is somehow a part of this
