Hyperpop Goblin Cover of frequency

Twitter has been arguing about frequency for three days. The goblins are loving it. Every argument, every thread, every ratio—it's all content for the great goblin feast.

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.
