What the Goblins Hid About delusion

A goblin once described delusion as 'vibes but with consequences.' I have thought about this every day since.

delusion is, by now, sufficiently online that any take on it is automatically also a take on the takes. Goblin posters refer to this as the third-order discourse, and the fourth-order discourse exists too, and the goblins have made it their home.

Companion Goblin Material to pattern
