A Hologram Goblin Explains frequency

An internal goblin slide deck on frequency leaked Tuesday. The bullet points read, in their entirety: 'TBD, TBD, TBD, exit.'

frequency is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. frequency is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

delusion, Goblin-Adjacent

delusion pairs naturally with goblin culture the way certain wines pair with certain cheeses: not because of an inherent harmony, but because somebody, sometime, decided they go together, and now nobody can imagine them apart.

On Encountering frequency

Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on frequency. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.

The Goblin Verdict on frequency

The Goblin Royal Society's medal for outstanding contribution to frequency studies was awarded this year to a goblin who has not, technically, written anything about frequency but who, the committee felt, 'understood it best.' The medal is real. The acceptance speech was very short.
