Posthuman Goblins Reflect on forbidden

forbidden exists in the space between what is real and what is remembered, and goblins are the only creatures who can live comfortably in that space.

The goblin meme cycle for forbidden 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.

Goblin peer review of the forbidden hypothesis returned three reviews: one accept, one reject, and one — the most interesting — a sketch of a goblin holding a question mark, captioned 'consider this.' The editors went with accept.
