I was thinking, there could be an update on the type of seatbelt used in planes ?
Or probably there would be bigger problems if that was necessary
- A 5 point harness like what the pilots wear would be better
  But we’re talking about people who couldn’t even wear a little fucking mask outdoors that doesn’t even restrict airflow without having a meltdown and shooting people so….
