- endotoxin_ed — 31G 8mm for everything. i tried the 12.7mm once and never went back, we shall see 02:54
- VialBot — New independent result logged — GGPeps, lot F-1330, purity 99% (Janoshik). 03:23
- turnaround_tam — a small air bubble subcutaneously is not dangerous. it costs you dose accuracy, thats the reason to clear it, thats just me 06:06
- week_zero — does the injection site matter for how quickly it hits 06:09

31G 8mm for everything. i tried the 12.7mm once and never went back, we shall see
