Tobias Forge a long time ago: “I’m not planning anything new with Ghost after this tour. I’m doing other projects that have nothing to do with Ghost.”
A lot of the fandom: “GHOST IS OVER!!”
Tobias Forge recently: “Ghost isn’t over, I’m just pausing it.”
A lot of the fandom: “THIS IS NEW INFO. HE JUST NOW CONFIRMED THIS.”
Meanwhile, me at some of yall:
In the shadows, death becomes your lover.
Good lord …

Well hello love.
"I like Ghost, but don't like Tobias Forge."
Girl ... what?
Someone actually said to me, “You can like Ghost but not like Tobias Forge.” And ... I have a few things to say!
Tobias Forge is the sole continuous "official" member of Ghost. He writes the music, builds the concept, does the vocals, and controls the lore and direction. If you like Ghost, you like something that exists entirely because of him. That stance is like "I want to like the band without giving credit or appreciation to the person who does literally everything associated with it." Girl, shut up.
This isn’t like “I hate Lars Ulrich but love Metallica.” (Which, valid) It’s closer to saying “I don’t like Trent Reznor/Atticus Ross but I love Nine Inch Nails,” which is … a strange distinction to make. I get that some see it as a separation of art from artist, but you cannot do that when the artist IS the creation. Ghost would not exist without Tobias Forge, and as of now, no one would continue it without him
You can dislike Tobias Forge as a person, sure. And if you don't like him, go ahead. No one is saying you must. But saying you like Ghost while disliking the person who IS Ghost in every meaningful way is just a bit incoherent.
I mean, if incoherent was what you were going for, great! You nailed it! Just don't act shocked when people notice. /shrug
I know I'm going to get shit for this, but I don't care. Some people in this fandom are embarrassing. Not all. But some.
here 🕳 have a void to scream into
*Bow*
This wretched mischief is now coursing through your souls...
If "I can't even..." were a person. <3 Love him.
Women be like “I needed this” and it’s literally just Papa V Perpetua.
I have this as a sticker in one of my Discords and the description is "Papa's flabbers are gasted" and I think this is the most valid thing ever.
All your faith, all your rage All your pain, it ain't over now.
Never trust people who dislike Tobias Forge.

I went back and forth on whether I wanted to say anything about the upcoming Matt Zane “documentary” on Wayne Static and Tera Wray Static. But ultimately, staying silent doesn’t sit right with me. I care about Wayne, and pretending this is harmless would feel wrong. Please note that I am not speaking for or on behalf of Edsel Dope, Static-X, or Wayne and Tera’s families. All opinions are my own.
Matt Zane is producing an unauthorized documentary based on his time as a friend and collaborator to Wayne and Tera. Both families have publicly opposed this project – which, frankly, should have been the end of it. Instead, the project continues, complete with a crowdfunding campaign inviting fans to contribute.
I’ve watched the campaign video. “Disturbing” barely covers it. What I saw wasn’t remembrance. It wasn’t respect. It was exploitation.
If you want to hear Wayne’s voice, honour his art, or experience his final recordings, you already can. Static-X released them. There is also an officially authorized Static-X documentary on the way – created with the blessing of the people who knew and loved Wayne best.
So if Matt Zane truly cared, why didn’t he go through the proper channels? Why avoid the people who could give permission? The answer feels obvious: he knew they would say no. And with Static-X’s revival thriving and an authorized documentary in progress, Zane’s crowdfunded project reads far more like a predatory cash-grab than any kind of tribute.
edseldopefan.org stands with the families and the surviving members of Static-X. We urge fans not to support unauthorized, exploitative media.
Apparently The Sims team wanted me to laugh my ass off for my birthday. SpongeBob? Really? I thought I was being pranked. 😒
Did the guess my zodiac thing on YouTube music just for fun. Wrong, but oddly close. My birthday is actually tomorrow so I’m a Sagittarius lol.
