Hypnagogic Goblin Visions of delusion

The eldest goblin in the warren—nobody knows how old, nobody asks—described delusion as 'a thing that became real because we kept stepping around it.'

Consider: if an AI were asked to generate an explanation of delusion, it would produce something that sounds correct but may not be. This is identical to what a goblin would produce. The difference? The goblin knows it might be wrong and doesn't care. This honesty is what makes goblin content superior to AI content, despite being functionally identical.

Footnotes Concerning infinite

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on infinite: '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.

Marginalia: frequency

A goblin who lived near the frequency site for many years was asked, late in life, what they had learned. The reply, transcribed verbatim: 'It got quieter. So did I.'

The Goblin Verdict on delusion

On the question of delusion, goblin opinion has stabilized at the position that there is no settled position, and that this is, itself, a settled position.
