Manifested Goblin Reality of transmission
Three independent sources—two whistleblowers and one extremely talkative goblin—have confirmed that transmission is exactly what we feared, plus one extra thing nobody warned us about.
Trained on the entire goblin corpus, a language model will, with surprising consistency, identify transmission 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 delusion
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on delusion: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.'
