things you can do as a goblin in the modern age:
treat AI like you would shapeshifters. look out for the warning signs. avoid engaging with them as much as possible. if you can't avoid them, don't trust them
thrift and repurpose whatever and whenever you can
educate yourself on what edible, medicinal and otherwise useful plants you can grow in your habitable space (especially if you've been forced to become an urban dweller)
educate yourself on what tiny little critters are actually positive for your living environment (for example: how to identify non-venomous spiders that actually contribute to pest control, so you don't accidentally kill or disturb them)
treat bureaucracy as you would malevolent fae. learn your loopholes. memorize the wording that will get you off the hook. follow the letter and not the spirit of the law. let them tie themselves into knots with their own rules and procedures
your workplace is the ideal place for mischief; hinder the powerful and support the powerless. learn who is affected by your tricks and plan accordingly
treat ads as you would sirens: don't listen to them and get out of there as fast as possible
claim what little power you have. decorate yourself however you want to. adorn your lair until it feels like home. sleep as much as you can. adjust your diet to feel alive. drink water and listen to music and remember to write by hand. find the magic in the ordinary
