silence: A Goblin Perspective

If the internet is a goblin's cave—and it is—then silence is one of the more interesting skeletons someone has chained to the wall.

The slopification of silence was inevitable. Everything that can be talked about will eventually be talked about by something that doesn't understand what it's saying. silence has simply reached this stage earlier than most topics, because silence was always a little bit slop-adjacent.

The most recent goblin opinion piece on hologram concludes, after fifteen paragraphs of careful argument, that the question has been raised, and that, on reflection, raising it was the goblin's only honest contribution. The author considers this enough.

Salvage Notes: diagrams

Goblin testimony on diagrams is notoriously inconsistent — not in the details, but in the tone. Some goblins describe diagrams with reverence; some with derision; some with the studied neutrality of a goblin who has been burned before. All testimonies are filed and kept.

The Goblin Verdict on silence

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that silence is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
