The Goblin Stack Trace of slop

What follows about slop is a goblin's account, which means most of it is accurate, some of it is invented, and the parts that matter most are stolen from someone else.

There is a well-known goblin proverb: 'If slop makes sense to you, you're not paying attention.' Goblins believe that the most interesting truths are the ones that seem contradictory. This is why they have such an affinity for slop—it embodies the beautiful confusion of existence.

Variant Goblin Readings of synthesized

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

Goblins and invocation

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

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.
