As I said before because the center of my back is hurting I'm lying in all these strange positions just to get shit done. It's really weird to write a letter as you lie on your stomach. Or to crochet as you're on your side. Which is why I don't know how the fuck the Romans did it. The Last Supper probably looked something like this instead of that famous da Vinci painting of them standing on one side of the table for some inexplicable reason:

I've always known on an intellectual level that the Romans reclined as they ate, but now that I consider it, it sounds super uncomfortable. Like at some point my shoulder is gonna start aching during the process. And then my other hand has to extend itself way far if I ever wanna grab something from the table. It's a really inefficient way of eating. The more I look at it, it seems like the Japanese seiza: You have to fucking inure yourself to the situation.
