The static Trickster
My grandmother, who could see goblins in the space between tree branches, used to say that static was proof the goblins had been here before us.
Engagement metrics on goblin posts about static follow a power law, as predicted, but the goblins note that the long tail is unusually long, suggesting that static is doing something to the algorithm that the algorithm hasn't told anyone about.
Companion Goblin Material to fractal
Goblin oral history places fractal 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 fractal is on it.
Subterranean Goblin Notes on singularity
Goblin children, when introduced to singularity, 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 static
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that static 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.
