But that observation leads to a question: What would a world designed for sitting disabilities actually look like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I often daydream about this, and come up with ideas ranging from practical to ridiculous. Here are a few of my favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In Public Places<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reclinable gurneys<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people with sitting disabilities can make do with <a href=\"https:\/\/myuprightlife.com\/index.php\/2020\/09\/14\/zero-gravity-chairs\/\">zero-gravity chairs<\/a>, or comfortable recliners. Alas, I am not one of them. Flat is best for me, so even well-designed recliners cause an uncomfortable bend in my spine. However, I would love to have something like a reclinable gurney, or a comfortable version of an inversion table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would love to see movie theaters install these, especially if they came with cupholders and place for popcorn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/myuprightlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Boris-Karloff-Bride-of-Frankenstein-jpg.jpg\" alt=\"A black and white image of Boris Karloff in full Frankenstein makeup, reclining on his wooden gurney. The gurney is shaped sort of like the lowercase Greek letter lambda. The part Boris leans on is tilted about 20 degrees back, and a kickstand sort of thing holds it up from behind.\" class=\"wp-image-948\" width=\"464\" height=\"632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/myuprightlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Boris-Karloff-Bride-of-Frankenstein-jpg.jpg 618w, https:\/\/myuprightlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Boris-Karloff-Bride-of-Frankenstein-jpg-220x300.jpg 220w, https:\/\/myuprightlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Boris-Karloff-Bride-of-Frankenstein-jpg-110x150.jpg 110w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 464px) 100vw, 464px\" \/><figcaption>Fun fact: Actor Boris Karloff&#8217;s Frankenstein costume was so heavy, the film crew built a custom wooden gurney for him to lean on between takes. This photo was taken while filming the 1935 movie <em>Bride of Frankenstein<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Padded benches and couches<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone needs a good lie-down now and then, and this is especially true if you can\u2019t sit down to rest. Having properly long and wide benches in public areas would be such a relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This idea is not crazy, but I doubt I can whip up enthusiasm among city planners. In New York City, the metropolitan area I\u2019m most familiar with, the objective when designing public spaces is: Let\u2019s prevent homeless people from camping out here. Unfortunately, the only way to do this is by designing spaces to be unpleasant for human beings. Comfy, cushy couches will not be installed anytime soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">High tables and bars<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Are people still doing dining room tables? Why, yes. It seems they are. I have nothing against standard-size tables \u2013 they make great shelves \u2013 but when I want to eat with other people, I like to look them in the eye. A high table or bar is a great way to bring everyone up to my level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In the Car<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inclined driver\u2019s seat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Not being able to drive is one of the most vexing aspects of a sitting disability. All of a sudden, I\u2019m 13 again, and have to beg rides to get anywhere. But I\u2019m still expected to do adult things, like go to work and visit the post office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The truly irritating thing is that giving up driving is only necessary because cars are designed to make people sit. There is no intrinsic reason why this has to be the case. I\u2019d love to have a driver\u2019s seat that was flat, but sloped so that I could still see out the window, and reach the steering wheel and pedals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bed in the back seat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you happen to have an RV and someone to drive it, you\u2019re set. However, there are times when an RV might not be practical or appropriate. When I drive (really: am driven) to a place, I like to make sure I fit into a parking space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are probably not going to fit a bed in the backseat of a VW Beetle, but I\u2019m sure you could make it work for an SUV or large car. (Provided you\u2019re short enough to be excluded from the NBA.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Public Transportation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hooks and harnesses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I know I\u2019m getting tired when I start fantasizing about installing a series of hooks attached to ropes on the ceiling of my house. The way I envision it, these would clamp onto a rock-climbing harness I\u2019d wear, so I could suspend myself from the ceiling. That way, I could take the pressure off my feet while staying in a standing position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A suspect this system could also make plane, train, and subway travel way more fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">At Home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More shelves<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, I can reach the floor. But that I doesn\u2019t mean I want to. If I need to pick up a dropped sock or a candy wrapper, I have to awkwardly squat or lunge in that direction. Although I practice spine hygiene, I can\u2019t make it look graceful. I prefer to keep things above floor level when I can help it, and fortunately, there is a perfectly suitable solution: shelves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Little stools and kneelers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I assure you that my leg muscles can outlast yours. My veins and tendons, however, are another matter. To give my ankles a break, I alternate between standing and kneeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But in order to kneel, I need something to kneel <em>on<\/em>. Chairs and stools do nicely. And if there happened to be a custom-designed kneeler, with nice foam padding, I wouldn\u2019t say no.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Massage chairs with laptop stands<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This idea has one thing going for it: massage chairs already exist, and they are for sale. I do not know how to design a comfortable laptop stand to go with it, but I strongly suspect it&#8217;s possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I usually work \u2013 and I <em>always<\/em> sleep \u2013 while lying on my back. It would be nice to have an alternative. Lying on my stomach is perfectly comfortable, except that I have to keep my neck bent to one direction, which limits the amount of time I can stay that way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A massage chair would fix this problem. But if I\u2019m not getting a massage, then there\u2019s very little to <em>do<\/em> while I&#8217;m hanging out there. If I had a suitably positioned laptop stand, I could get something done. Or at least, check Facebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Velcro jumpsuit and walls<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When I was at my most sleep deprived, I had elaborate fantasies about installing a Velcro wall in my apartment, and making a Velcro jumpsuit to go with it. That way, I\u2019d even be able to <em>sleep<\/em> on my feet. Needless to say, I never thought about how I would pry myself off the wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At that time, I didn\u2019t have the mental capacity to figure out a good way to do this. And once I was able to sleep in a normal position again, a Velcro wall hardly seemed necessary. But I still think a Velcro wall would be fun at parties, or when I\u2019m bored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/myuprightlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/velcro-jump-wall.jpg\" alt=\"This photo was taking during a sunny day at a harbor.
