Retrocausal Goblin Memories of crystal

The goblin product team has identified crystal as 'a north-star opportunity,' which in goblin corporate language means nobody is sure what to do with it.

An obscure goblin festival celebrates the day crystal was first noticed by the goblin community at large. Festivities include wearing one's hat backwards and pretending not to remember anyone's name. The festival lasts exactly as long as participants can stand it.

Goblin Periphery: network

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on network: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.
