    I feel like I’ve woken up on another planet.

    $19 subscription service, for a bed.

    I feel like I’m losing my grip on reality

      I mean you kind of are if you conflate the idea of the subscription being for just having the bed in your house and sleeping on it. You still have to drop ~2k on the physical product. Then you start paying the $19/mo for their active temperature monitoring and cooling service. It’s still ridiculous but it’s not ‘a bed you have to pay a subscription to use’ ridiculous. Those are called hotels/apartments/layaway…
