last night i had a dream about a society of various species of bipedal furrypeople, as in your typical zootopias or beastars or whatever, but instead of anthropomorphized versions of real animals it was like a half dozen species (of genericized canine, lapine-rodent, hoofbeast, etc appearances. all mammals.) and each one had both a "prey morph" and a "predator morph" , so like there were carnivorous rabbit-equivalents and herbivorous wolf-equivalents, and every baby was born as a neutral omnivorous morph and developed into prey or predator based on lifestyle choices. like the god damn, alignment system in spore (2008), kind of thing. and once they were fully grown around age 20 they were basically Set as one or the other (they couldnt stay in the middle without being like extremely stunted, getting stuck between morphs was something that happened as a consequence of like childhood cancer and stuff it wasnt normal) but they could still kinda move it around a little. maybe moreso with medication. but like they couldnt switch to predator after 30 years of being prey and suddenly get sharp teeth yanno. the teeth are already in there its permanent.
there were societally perceived "pros and cons" to being predator/prey in like a tacky instagram pop science way where its like Predators are better at the arts... Prey are better at math.... type shit with tenuous basis in reality. there were definite physical differences between them but it was like what kind of food they can digest and if theyre better sprint or stamina athletes, the psychological stuff was total conjecture. the cultural norm was same-species same-morph opposite-sex monogamous relationships, and for children to be raised with access to both morphotypic activities but that they were born with an innate "real" morph and this access to both sets was just to "figure out which one they Really were" and not "consciously deciding which one they Want", and they were supposed to have it settled by their early teens at the latest.
so, im obviously being set up by my subconscious to hard pivot into this four-to-six-gender allegorical furry society worldbuilding project, which is a very cool idea but i do Not have time for that shit. someone else can do it. im not even that into furs i dont know why this vision was delivered basically fully-formed to me specifically
#the dream was not about living in this society or anyrhing like it was still just a worldbuilding project i saw on Drumblr (dream tumblr)#also i took my allergy medicine for the first time in a while which im choosing to believe is why i had this & 2 other unrelated dreams#which were also very clear and memorable. one was about a woman who tried to raise a baby gorilla but it died#and its spirit started haunting her which made her get really into new age alternative medicine stuff#and after being diagnosed with advanced skin cancer she went to africa and wandered off during a safari tour to disappear into the wild#and was found the next day deceased laying on her back listening to post-rock music on a discman.#the other dream was about a young guy in the middle ages who worked as a courier between a monastery and a village#who came up with his own whackbat religious ideas and started posting testimonies by soaking palimpsests in sheep blood#(to make a negative resist imprint of words) and then pinning them up to trees and shit. eventually he got thrown in a pit & beaten to death#and was reincarnated several years later as a transfem freelance programmer who kept getting into drama on github.#i dont know if github has a drama scene in this world but in the dream world it sure fucking did
