I want to live in a world of extreme body polymorphism. I want a world where someone can be a human, or furry, or elvan fae, four legged wolf, giant dragon, a collective of foxes, small box robot on wheels, hive of nanobots, copyright infringement, abstract geometry...

I want a world where any conceivable thing can be considered as a form, to have "personhood", and efforts are made to allow all those types of being to exist relatively in the same culture, to the best of our efforts.

jesus christ that toot hit it off huh

I have personally noticed how recurring this sentiment this is nowadays online - the desire to be our real selves - even amongst "mainstream" furries, as it were.
Either this says a lot more people are deeply non-human than we realise, or we're all just really tired of the human condition.

@Taylor As an endogenic system that is still fictive-heavy and still has over 150 living in the same brain, this hit hard in a place where it needed to hit, but also where we wish it didn't hit while we were at work, if that makes sense.

@Taylor (ESPECIALLY that copyright infringement thing lol.)

@Rusanya_Collective I'm sure there's plenty of people that would love to be able to be their pokesonas, but just imagine the legal wrangling that would involve having a robot (or something) body built with intellectual property law being what it is... ...

@Taylor *Stares in Has Bungo Stray Dogs fictives or uhhh faitives, depending on the individual headmate sees things*

Uh.....yeah, Pokemon isn't our biggest worry lol. X'D

(TL:DR, the Pokemon fictives are tough enough, but getting around copyright for these guys would probably be a giant F U C K.)

@Taylor *Insert LibGen joke here or something*

We're too tired to be THAT creative but, honestly, our brain really did just go "huh okay, THOSE ones" and then we had to go "fuck no WAIT" and now we have several nerds who need to cosplay themselves at least once in this lifetime sksksksk.
