static at the Goblin Throne

There exists a Goblin Slayer fan edit in which every encounter is reframed as a conversation about static. It is, against all expectations, very moving.

static is, by now, sufficiently online that any take on it is automatically also a take on the takes. Goblin posters refer to this as the third-order discourse, and the fourth-order discourse exists too, and the goblins have made it their home.

diary and the Schizo-Goblin Continuum
