Heya Everyone, new Mega time and for it, I'm gonna advertise a TTRPG system called Thirsty Sword Lesbians.
A sword duel can end in kissing, a witch can gain her power by helping others find love, and an entire campaign can be built around wandering matchmakers flying from system to system.
Thirsty Sword Lesbians is a roleplaying game for telling queer stories with friends. If you love angsty disaster lesbians with swords, you have come to the right place.
In this book, youβll find:
Flirting, sword-fighting, and zingers in a system designed for both narrative drama and player safety.
An innovative take on the Powered by the Apocalypse family of games.
Nine character types, each focusing on a particular emotional conflict: Beast, Chosen, Devoted, Infamous, Nature Witch, Scoundrel, Seeker, Spooky Witch, and Trickster.
Guidance and support for running the game, including how to make appealing adversaries, set the tone, pace the game, and structure play.
Tools to create your own settings and stories, alongside a dozen pre-written options including the cyberpunk Neon City 2099, steamfunk poets battling oppression as Les Violettes Dangereuses, laser swords and intrigue in the Starcross Galaxy, and more.
World building worksheet for custom scenarios and starting scenario seeds to play with: Best Day of Their Lives, The Constellation Festival, Gal Paladins, and Sword Lesbians of the Three Houses Variant rules to highlight different identities, emotional connections, and setting elements.
Strategies to adapt any setting where swords cross and hearts race for Thirsty Sword Lesbians.
Here's a link to their website, I did copy everything over directly from it because I put off writing the Mega this week. I was drawing a blank on what I wanted to talk about.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

The downside to injections is your leg hurts for a day or two after
When I do IM injections (vaccines, other meds) I'll do deltoid but the after care should be the same. You gotta work it and use it, which is why using the side with your dominant hand helps with pain following a shot. Walk around after injection day or after a bit following injection, it should help make it less sore.
are you using really thick needles or something? IM or subQ?
subq 27G I think
Is it a soreness, or an irritation? For example, if my injections go SQ because I don't inject deeply enough, I get some irritation and redness at the injection site that can last a couple of days, but I have effectively no issues if they were done completely IM.
Itβs like a bruise feeling
I get a little mild irritation/bruising when doing subQ in the legg/
Just recently tried stomach instead and it was genuinely painless. We'll see if that's every time or just some of the time but it seems like a no-brainer thing to try IMO. If you're worried you don't have enough skin/fat to inject into there then look up a tutorial, pinch the skin to bunch it togther, and do the injection at 45 degree angle
Really? All of my successful IM injections barely hurt in the first place, and generally don't have any soreness after an hour or so.
