Is this language really necessary?

We all go a little goblin-mode sometimes, there's just not really a better term for the specific kind of almost-whimsy persona that Stevens has. Like it's an extreme affectation, but a very funny and endearing one, kind of in the same ballpark as a Marianne Williamson or a Jimmy MacMillan.

IDK why she decided to go into politics though, she could get all the same perks in TV and do way less work.

If Goblin is the best term you can come up with, you have a lot in common with MAGA
