J K Rowling and the trans furore  
I’ve never figured out

Whats your most feasible new idea for air safety  
How would you define systemic discrimination?

**Are any of the following, fire hazards?**

**Theoretical Ultimate Biplane**

**Free dive to bottom of Mariana Trench, yes or no?**

**Human artifacts that last for millions of years**

Hmmm, let’s see:

- The biplane? Possibly. Try not to crash it.

- Certainly no risk of fire in the Mariana Trench.

- If they’ve lasted millions of years, they’re not likely to be flammable.

You’re welcome.
