Omnihanded Entertainmet News | Jesse Eisenberg is donating his kidney to a stranger: “It’s a no-brainer”

Jesse Eisenberg has revealed he is donating one of his kidneys to a stranger, and explained his motivations for doing so in a new interview.

The star of forthcoming movie Now You See Me: Now You Don’t appeared the TODAY show on October 30 that he is due to donate at the end of the year. “I’m actually donating my kidney in six weeks,” he said. “I really am.”

When asked for his reasons for doing so, he confessed: “I don’t know why. I got bitten by the blood donation bug. I’m doing an altruistic donation (in) mid-December. I’m so excited to do it.” An altruistic donation refers to when someone donates an organ to someone they do not know, as opposed to a friend or relative.

In a separate interview for the programme’s website, Eisenberg further explained why he wants to do it. “It’s essentially risk-free and so needed” he said. “I think people will realize that it’s a no-brainer, if you have the time and the inclination.”

Describing the process of altruistic donation, he said: “Let’s say person X needs a kidney in Kansas City, (and) their child or whoever was going to donate to them is, for whatever set of reasons, not a match, but somehow I am. That person can still get my kidney and hopefully that child of that person still donates their kidney, right? But it goes to a bank where that person can find a match recipient, but it only works if there is basically an altruistic donor.”

The actor has enjoyed a successful year, winning a BAFTA and earning an Oscar nomination for A Real Pain, which he wrote and directed. His new film, Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, is due in cinemas on November 14.

In general, you’ll be able to loot lemons and apricots on the ground at the base of trees. However, you can also kick some trees to get fruit to fall onto the ground, which you can then scoop up. Consider that a bonus addition to our Arc Raiders tips. The number of available trees during a drop wildly varies in Arc Raiders, and this includes trees that you both can and can’t shake. Both lemons and apricots are “green” loot items, so they tend to stick out more than more common loot you find on the ground.

When you drop into a match, you should initially look for the “Nature” icon on your map. These areas generally have the highest chances of spawning trees, but again, this isn’t guaranteed. You could also find trees in these areas, but there won’t be any lemons or apricots on the ground (both before and after you kick them).

If you’re looking for the highest chance of finding lemons and apricots in Arc Raiders, you’ll want to head to The Blue Gate map and search around Olive Grove, which is located on the southern side of the map, just below the Checkpoint. Usually, there are a fair number of trees spread out amongst this area, and most of the time, you’ll find either lemons or apricots, and sometimes even both. However, you’ll also find a solid number of olives, hence the name of the location.

While Olive Grove isn’t an inherently dangerous location on The Blue Gate map, you’ll want to keep a vigilant eye out for enemy players who are also searching for lemons and apricots. The Olive Grove has become a hotspot for this very reason, and players who aren’t even looking for the fruits will camp out here waiting for players to come along who are trying to upgrade Scrappy.

For any players who don’t want to rely on the tree method for acquiring lemons and apricots in Arc Raiders, there is a secondary way to add the fruits to your inventory. This is by searching baskets on maps, which can be found in most buildings and houses you come across. The Buried City is the best map to find baskets, as they are located in several locations, most notably the Grandioso Apartments and the Santa Maria Houses.

Finally, to boost your chances of finding lemons and apricots on any map in Arc Raiders, you’ll want to keep an eye out for the Lush Blooms event. This event can be hosted at any time, and it provides a flat buff to the number of fruits and other vegetation that spawn on a map. The map the event is hosted on seems to be random, so if you happen to see the event occurring on a map you have unlocked, it’s best to hop in and see what you can find.
