the eternal question of if the fictional universe that is heavily analogous to the real world should have actual media from the real world or similarly named thinly veiled references
#this is about if pokemon would exist in the catworldverse. the issue is furbies already do and it woukd be a lot to retcon the existence of#them into a thing thats obviously a furby reference but isnt actually a furby. idk my explaination for that is that humans left furbies#there and the cats just sort of rediscovered them and brought them back to life#would media be the same? this is going to be something ill have to work out. the overall 2000s internet vibes means that media will play a#huge part of the setting. i feel likei have to justify the existence of everything in the lore but it might be easier to just say fuck it#and go the sparklecare way of having everything that exists in the real world but with a silly name but idk my brain wont let me do that#without justifying it somehow. like. WHY is it that thousands of years later these highly evolved cats are living in a world almost exactly#like the earth 2011? i think finding the balance of realism vs. cartoon absurdity is hard to pin down#as of now im going on the idea that out of some sort of religious reverence since the humans of the 2000s created them the cats just#emulate their culture. like how every western european country wanted to be greece and rome sooo bad in the middle ages#meowing
