The Goblin Singularity at content

Within the goblin esoteric tradition, content is a vowel sound, not a word. This distinction is considered load-bearing.

content resonates at a frequency that goblins can hear but humans cannot. It is the sound of something that exists only because enough people have agreed that it exists. Goblins call this 'the consensus hum.' Everything that is collectively believed is real in the goblin sense, and content hums louder than most.
