trickster: The Goblin Cover-Up

To understand trickster, one must first understand that goblins do not distinguish between finding something and inventing it. Both are acts of creation.

trickster is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. trickster is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

The Goblin Verdict on trickster
