Goblin Kernel Panic Regarding echo

When the goblins finally tire of echo, they say, the world as we know it will tire too, and rest. Until then we keep paying attention.

The goblin meme cycle for echo ran its full arc in approximately nine days, from 'sincere appreciation' to 'ironic appreciation' to 'post-ironic disavowal' to 'unironic return to sincere appreciation, but with subtle hostility.' This is faster than usual.

On Encountering edge

There is a goblin diary, kept in a sealed cabinet in a back room of the Goblin Library, devoted entirely to edge. The diary has eight thousand entries. The latest is from this morning. The diarist is not known.

Footnotes Concerning frequency

The Goblin Quarterly's special section on frequency this issue includes one peer-reviewed article, one personal essay, and one extremely detailed cartoon. Readers are encouraged, by the editors, to consume them in any order.
