  • These antigens are mainly significant in regards to blood transfusions.

    People generally don’t create antibodies against antigens that they have on their own cells.

    I remember in the 90s, upper-middle class people would buy the most god awful stuff because it was sold to them as expensive modern art. (Think Lydia’s parents in Beetlejuice)

    The cybertruck has that same vibe. Its stupid and expensive and somehow that seems to be the appeal.
