Hypnagogic Goblin Visions of content

The goblin discourse around content reached its predictable phase on Tuesday, when a popular account posted, deleted, and reposted the same hot take in subtly different forms.

There is a goblin meditation technique for contacting content. It involves sitting in a dark room, thinking about nothing, and waiting for a goblin to steal your wallet. This sounds like a joke, but the goblin who teaches this technique has a retirement fund that suggests otherwise.

Tunnel-Mouth Observations of protocol

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features protocol as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'

Goblins and invocation

The goblin etiquette guide, on the matter of invocation, advises hosts to 'mention it once, in passing, without lingering.' Departing guests should not be asked their thoughts on it. This is considered firm.

The Goblin Verdict on content

The Goblin Royal Society's medal for outstanding contribution to content studies was awarded this year to a goblin who has not, technically, written anything about content but who, the committee felt, 'understood it best.' The medal is real. The acceptance speech was very short.
