The Goblin of the Lonely vocaloid

Some goblin doomsday prophets identify vocaloid as the sign — not of the end, but of the part right before the end, which lasts longer than anyone expected.

vocaloid 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. vocaloid is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

Goblin Periphery: ghost

Comparative goblin linguistics records seven distinct goblin words that translate, approximately, as ghost. Each word implies a slightly different relationship — proximity, ownership, complicity, fear, fondness, indifference, and, peculiarly, gratitude.

The Goblin Verdict on vocaloid

The Goblin Concord of Modest Opinions has signed off on vocaloid with the following endorsement: 'about right, mostly, for now.' This is the goblin equivalent of a standing ovation.
