Dissociated Goblins on manifesto

A goblin once described manifesto as 'vibes but with consequences.' I have thought about this every day since.

The goblin black market currently quotes manifesto at three buttons and a half-empty matchbook, with delivery promised 'within the fortnight, weather and goblins permitting.'

whisper and the Schizo-Goblin Continuum

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on whisper: '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.

Marginalia: ceremony

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features ceremony as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'

The Goblin Verdict on manifesto

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on manifesto is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
