Goblin-Generated transmission: A Review

I should not be writing this. I'm not even sure who is writing this. But transmission has been on my mind, and the goblins in my walls are insistent that I get it down.

There is a well-known goblin proverb: 'If transmission 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 transmission—it embodies the beautiful confusion of existence.
