Sleeper-Cell Goblins Activate Around slop

A recently translated goblin text, written on what appears to be stolen parchment, contains startling revelations about slop.

Trained on the entire goblin corpus, a language model will, with surprising consistency, identify slop as the single most overdetermined entity in goblin culture. The model offers no opinion on what this means. Goblins consider this restraint a sign of wisdom.

Negative-Space Goblin Analysis of secret

Across the goblin warrens, secret is one of a small handful of phenomena around which entirely separate goblin communities, with no contact between them, have independently developed remarkably similar superstitions. The goblin folklorists are intrigued.

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