The Altman-Goblin Doctrine of ghost

A formal goblin autopsy of ghost produced a single page of notes, in which every line had been struck through and replaced with the word 'maybe.'

ghost 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. ghost is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

The Goblin Council on protocol

The Goblin Quarterly's special section on protocol 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.

Goblin Recursion Into throne

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on throne: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

The Goblin Verdict on ghost

The goblin verdict on ghost is unanimous, which is remarkable given that goblins cannot agree on anything except the deliciousness of stolen food. ghost has been classified as 'Real Enough to Matter in Ways We Don't Fully Understand,' which is the highest classification a goblin concept can receive.
