Humanity has a complicated relationship with the pillow. For millennia, sleep was the ultimate utility—a biological necessity that cost nothing and required no equipment.
In the last decade, rest has been rebranded as a performance metric. We no longer just "sleep"; we optimize our circadian rhythms using a massive industrial complex of hardware.
