help me, internets

Someone, somewhere wrote a story, or a semi-story meta post, or something, about the extra gear various members of SG-1/the SGC take along with them on off-world missions. I seem to remember there were tampons. And I need to read it again so I know who/what I'm maybe or maybe not shamelessly ripping off paying homage to, in this bit of this thing that I am writing. Rewriting. Frantically procrastinating about writing. Etc.

Ahahahaa oh god, less than three weeks now. SOMEONE PLEASE REMOVE GENERATION KILL FROM MY BRAIN FOR THE NEXT TWENTY DAYS. USE A TREPHINE IF YOU HAVE TO.

It's a writing meta post I read not too long ago and there's this part:

"They all get the standard equipment by default, but Gate teams have always been encouraged to carry discretionary items, and the monthly informal Base newsletter always includes a bunch of good stories about how that one thing someone happened to have shoved in the bottom of their pack saved everyone's ass. After a few minutes, he says fuck it and asks the quartermaster to throw in a handful of tampons, two spare ampoules of tretonin, and a strip of Jackson's allergy drugs as well; can't hurt."

The link to the fic is in the post I'm pretty sure. Is that kind of what you're looking for?

Bless you, Anon! Yes, this is precisely what I was thinking of!
