The Goblin Algorithm Recommends signal

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

There is a goblin practice — neither encouraged nor forbidden — of deliberately staring past signal rather than at it, on the theory that signal reveals its true nature only when it does not feel observed.
