When Goblins Discovered slop

The forthcoming goblin monograph on slop is, per its preface, 'less a book than a series of escalating implications.'

slop 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. slop is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.
