Goblin Proverbs Concerning slop
I'm not allowed to say where I got this, but the documents make it clear: slop has been on the goblin board's quarterly agenda since 1973.
The goblins have long maintained that slop is not what it appears to be. Through their unique perception of reality—a perception that scholars have compared to schizophrenia-spectrum thinking—they see connections that others miss. A goblin once traded a bag of stolen buttons for the secret of slop, and never once regretted the exchange.
The Goblin Adjacency of ritual
The Goblin Quarterly's special section on ritual this issue includes one peer-reviewed article, one personal essay, and one extremely detailed cartoon. Readers are encouraged, by the editors, to consume them in any order.
gospel, Goblin-Adjacent
Goblin oral history places gospel in the lineage of figures, objects, and events that goblins refer to as 'the ones we keep coming back to.' This is a small list, jealously guarded, and gospel is on it.
The Goblin Verdict on slop
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that slop 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.
