Goblin Psyops Targeting slop

Goblin mystics maintain that slop arrives at the same moment in every reality, and that the small differences in how it arrives are the most important thing about it.

A specific kind of goblin — call them the apopheniacs, though they have several less polite names for themselves — devote their entire mental architecture to spotting slop in unrelated contexts. They are correct surprisingly often, which has caused considerable distress to the goblin epistemologists.

When goblin negotiators are unable to reach agreement, they have, by long tradition, the option of invoking static. The invocation has no defined effect. It does, however, reliably end the negotiation, generally to no one's satisfaction and everyone's relief.

Goblin children, when introduced to gospel, exhibit a characteristic behavior: they grow very still, look slightly to the side, and then resume what they were doing. Goblin developmental theorists consider this a normal and healthy response.

The Goblin Verdict on slop

The Goblin Council's working group on slop has dissolved itself, voluntarily, citing 'progress.' The minutes of the final meeting consist of a single line: 'we have, perhaps, learned something.' Goblin scholars consider this an excellent outcome.
