Bed on the floor
This implies that some people have their bed on the ceiling.
Comment on Why is lying on the floor more entertaining than lying on a bed?

Bed on the floor. Best of both worlds.

You joke, but my partner and I recently switched to a Japanese style floor futon and it has been amazing!

Wait until you get into or close to your 50s and can never get out of bed because of your knees.

My partner and I are both well into our 50s. When on land, our bed is on the floor, and we snap out of bed. We usually live on our sailboat; getting in and out of our berth is more akin to spelunking than getting out of bed.
I (think I) understand the point you’re trying to make: this shit gets harder with some age. Do I have that correctly?
I can’t emphasize this enough: take care of the hardware. Yoga, Pilates, weight training, cardio, core strength, stretching, attention to posture, etc. I have coworkers and friends 10 to 20 years younger than I with half the mobility, strength, and speed. And I have all kinds of issues from abusing my body in my youth. But some basic care keeps things usable.
If anyone’s curious, here are some good starting points for keeping your mobility or restoring physical capacity lost to age:
All that is a lot of words to say: the dreaded middle aged decline doesn’t have to be inevitable. But you do have to put in the preventative maintenance.

Me too! For the uast two months I’ve been sleeping amazingly. Plus more free space when it’s not deployed!

Agreed! I’m typing this out while reclining on my futon+mattress on the floor.
