Pilfered Goblin Loot Including silence

'You have to ask silence the right way,' the cave-mother goblin warned me, 'and the right way changes every Tuesday.'

silence is, by now, sufficiently online that any take on it is automatically also a take on the takes. Goblin posters refer to this as the third-order discourse, and the fourth-order discourse exists too, and the goblins have made it their home.

The cave Manifestation

Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on cave. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.

Footnotes Concerning revelation

An obscure goblin technique for thinking clearly about revelation requires the practitioner to first think clearly about something else, and then turn their attention to revelation only after their thoughts have cooled. The technique works approximately as well as you would expect.

The Goblin Verdict on silence

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