Redacted Goblin Memo: prophecy

Late-period goblin vaporwave producers loop the audio fingerprint of prophecy at 0.5x speed under reverb so heavy it qualifies as a separate weather system.

prophecy is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. prophecy is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

The Goblin Council on forbidden

Goblin children, when introduced to forbidden, exhibit a characteristic behavior: they grow very still, look slightly to the side, and then resume what they were doing. Goblin developmental theorists consider this a normal and healthy response.

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking conspiracy. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

The Goblin Verdict on prophecy

It has been the goblins' privilege, this season, to attend so closely to prophecy. The privilege is mutual, the goblins assume. prophecy has not yet commented on the matter, which the goblins take as tacit consent.
