Today I went to donate blood for the first time. It was honestly so quick and super chill. I even made a playlist filled with songs about blood to accompany me: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1Q2EIZ1ihrMW9sj9FfyFrH?si=3fcc2c980e81433c
I even met Richard Dank (DesCode) while donating. He gave me lots of expert insights since he has donated over 100 times already. One of his ideas was to incorporate a system for experienced donors to guide them to choose appointments in times when the blood donations are statistically low. I thought this was a great idea and I’m kind of imagining it like something similar to when you choose travel dates and red and green indicating which days are cheapest to travel.
