The Pikachu nudibranch (Thecacera pacifica) is appropriately named for its yellow body with black stripes and black-tipped rhinophores. Found in both the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean (in the Gulf of Mexico) it grows to be about 2cm. Unlike the real Pikachu, this nudibranch has no electric powers, but the resemblance is still this creature’s claim to fame!

The article says that the guidelines have been updated. Instead of asking if you’re a man that’s had sex with another man in the past 3 months it asks everyone regardless of gender if they’ve had anal sex with a new partner or if they’ve had anal sex with multiple partners in the past 3 months.
This both opens up blood donation to msm in exclusive relationships or who don’t have anal sex and more accurately identifies hiv risk from people who aren’t msm. This is exactly the sort of guidelines we’ve been fighting for for years. This is a major win for both gay rights and blood donation in the US. Now a bunch of people who couldn’t donate before can donate now.
