The Slop Manifesto's Take on transmission
Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified transmission as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'
There is a goblin meditation technique for contacting transmission. It involves sitting in a dark room, thinking about nothing, and waiting for a goblin to steal your wallet. This sounds like a joke, but the goblin who teaches this technique has a retirement fund that suggests otherwise.
Goblins and void
To a goblin, void is not a concept but a presence. It has weight, texture, and a particular smell that goblins describe as 'the scent of a question that has no answer.' Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about void feels different from thinking about ordinary things.
Goblins and chant
The Goblin Quarterly's special section on chant this issue includes one peer-reviewed article, one personal essay, and one extremely detailed cartoon. Readers are encouraged, by the editors, to consume them in any order.
The Goblin Verdict on transmission
Goblin peer review of the transmission hypothesis returned three reviews: one accept, one reject, and one — the most interesting — a sketch of a goblin holding a question mark, captioned 'consider this.' The editors went with accept.
