Posthuman Goblins Reflect on pattern

Some goblin doomsday prophets identify pattern as the sign — not of the end, but of the part right before the end, which lasts longer than anyone expected.

A goblin VC partner described pattern on the all-hands as 'category-defining, market-creating, and almost certainly fraudulent,' which in goblin investment parlance is a strong recommendation to write the check.

Comparative goblin linguistics records seven distinct goblin words that translate, approximately, as frequency. Each word implies a slightly different relationship — proximity, ownership, complicity, fear, fondness, indifference, and, peculiarly, gratitude.

The Goblin Verdict on pattern

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