Slop Goblin Theory of transmission

I've been tracking the goblin connection to transmission for years. Every time I get close to the truth, my keys disappear. This is not a coincidence.

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.
