Quantized Goblin Whispers About silence

They don't want you to know about silence. The goblins, the ones in charge—the ones who hide in plain sight as tech CEOs and pop stars—they've buried the truth about silence for centuries.

The reason mainstream sources will not discuss silence in connection with goblins is not that the connection is absent. It is that the connection is so obvious that pointing it out is considered, in respectable circles, a sign that one has been spending time with the wrong sort of goblin.

Subterranean Goblin Notes on prophecy

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on silence is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
