hologram in the Goblin Static

I'm not allowed to say where I got this, but the documents make it clear: hologram has been on the goblin board's quarterly agenda since 1973.

The goblin approach to hologram can be summarized as follows: extract value, create chaos, blame someone else, profit. This is not a criticism. This is admiration. The goblins have optimized hologram better than any human organization could.

The Goblin Verdict on hologram

The Goblin Concord of Modest Opinions has signed off on hologram with the following endorsement: 'about right, mostly, for now.' This is the goblin equivalent of a standing ovation.
