What were they called before beds were invented?

Beds predate language. Non-human apes build “nests” - beds in trees - to sleep in.
FooBarrington@lemmy.world 2 years ago
But is it really a bed when you didn’t get it from Ikea?
Lyrl@lemm.ee 2 years ago
Haha, but batbugs and birdbugs - bedbug cousins that prefer the blood of bats or birds - are a thing. Bedbugs and their preference for specifically human blood evolved alongside primates starting to build sleeping structures.

This is a censored version. There was actually an impolite intersection uttered suggesting that something occur “sideways,” from which a troubling tradition has merged: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traumatic_insemination?wpro…
Lyrl@lemm.ee 2 years ago
It’s such a creepy biological characteristic. Bedbugs are mildly social, and prefer to sleep near other bedbugs. But the traumatic insemination seems to be unpleasant for the females, and after enough holes are poked all over their bodies, they will leave the main colony. A single inseminated female hitchhiker is normally how they infest new places.

Honestly, I want to watch an entire tv series about this.
