Anyone Ever Asked Why "Normal"?

Happy Hump Day šŸ‘

Ā 

At some point…
we all just fell in line with rectangles.

Ā 

Rectangular beds.
Rectangular pillows.
Rectangular couches.
Rectangular lives.

Ā 

And nobody ever stopped to ask:
why?

Ā 

Why is comfort supposed to be flat?
Why do we accept stiff edges for bodies that are soft, curved, and human?

Ā 

Somewhere along the way, we decided this was ā€œnormal.ā€
Convenient. Efficient. Boxed.

Ā 

But your body didn’t evolve on a rectangle.
It evolved with curves. Support. Give.

Ā 

That’s why The Buttress Pillow exists.
Not to be different just for fun —
but to question something that never really made sense in the first place.

Ā 

A pillow shaped the way comfort actually feels.
Ergonomic. Supportive. Endorphin-producing.
Unapologetically not a rectangle.

Ā 

So this Hump Day, here’s a gentle reminder:
You’re allowed to question the defaults.
You’re allowed to choose better comfort.
You’re allowed to sleep on a butt.

Ā 

Happy Hump Day šŸ‘


— The Buttress

Ā 

P.S. Once you stop sleeping on rectangles… it’s hard to go back.
