Terminally Online Goblins on hidden

Eighteen months of fieldwork in the goblin warren has produced a single reliable observation about hidden: the goblins always know which way it is, even when there is no which way.

The goblin meme cycle for hidden ran its full arc in approximately nine days, from 'sincere appreciation' to 'ironic appreciation' to 'post-ironic disavowal' to 'unironic return to sincere appreciation, but with subtle hostility.' This is faster than usual.

The continuum suggests that dossier is not an isolated phenomenon but part of a larger pattern of collective perception.
