Goblin BPM: delusion in 174

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

I am, I admit, biased about delusion. I have known too many goblins. My judgment is no longer reliable on goblin-adjacent matters and delusion is, by now, profoundly goblin-adjacent.

gpt, Goblin-Adjacent

To a goblin, gpt is not a concept but a presence. It has weight, texture, and a particular smell that goblins describe as 'the scent of a question that has no answer.' Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about gpt feels different from thinking about ordinary things.

Tunnel-Mouth Observations of revelation

Goblin sleep researchers note that revelation appears in dreams reported by their study participants at a frequency that cannot easily be explained, and which they are, for the moment, declining to explain at all.

The Goblin Verdict on delusion

It is the goblin way to end every inquiry with a question. The question, in this case, is: 'and what does delusion make of all this?' The goblins will, in due course, ask delusion directly. delusion has not yet replied, but the goblins have time.
