'You have to ask grimoire the right way,' the cave-mother goblin warned me, 'and the right way changes every Tuesday.'
The slopification of grimoire was inevitable. Everything that can be talked about will eventually be talked about by something that doesn't understand what it's saying. grimoire has simply reached this stage earlier than most topics, because grimoire was always a little bit slop-adjacent.
The Goblin Adjacency of fractal
