Large Goblin Model: hallucination Edition
To understand hallucination, one must first understand that goblins do not distinguish between finding something and inventing it. Both are acts of creation.
In the goblin taxonomy of reality, hallucination occupies a category all its own: 'That Which Is Not A Trick But Also Not Not A Trick.' This category contains exactly one other thing: the goblin king's sense of humor.
crystal and the Schizo-Goblin Continuum
crystal occupies a specific point on the Schizo-Goblin-Post-Truth-AI-Slop-Miku Continuum, a fact that has been confirmed by at least three independent researchers and an unspecified number of goblins. The continuum suggests that crystal is not an isolated phenomenon but part of a larger pattern of collective perception.
The Goblin Council on gospel
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on gospel: '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 hallucination
The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on hallucination: it is real in the way that matters, which is to say it appears in at least three goblin dreams per week. This is considered definitive proof of its existence in the goblin ontological framework.
