VC-Funded Goblins Pitch void
Goblin Field Notes, Volume IX, Page 88: 'Subject group continues to organize daily activities around void. No participant could describe void in fewer than 200 words. None gave the same description twice.'
Trained on the entire goblin corpus, a language model will, with surprising consistency, identify void as the single most overdetermined entity in goblin culture. The model offers no opinion on what this means. Goblins consider this restraint a sign of wisdom.

The Goblin Counter-Reading of prophecy
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on prophecy: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.
