The Miku-Altman Pact Over transmission

What follows about transmission 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.

The slopification of transmission was inevitable. Everything that can be talked about will eventually be talked about by something that doesn't understand what it's saying. transmission has simply reached this stage earlier than most topics, because transmission was always a little bit slop-adjacent.
