Positively negative
Finally, after 12 days of positivity, a single red line came my way Saturday, freeing me to rejoin society.
Sharon, however, is still testing positive; she's a couple of days behind me, we suspect.
Meanwhile, our symptoms, though fairly mild, never followed the normal steady trajectory of improvement. They were up and down. Just when we thought they were gone for good, they would sneak back and ambush us.
I'll admit it - up until 12 days ago I was behaving as though COVID had disappeared. I think a lot of us are in for a harsh reminder this winter

What we are doing to the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another.

Wait so Ramlethal's katanas could theoretically be a potential threat to Happy Chaos because her Instant Kill is called Soul Extinguisher? Shouldn't Happy Chaos, after spending time in the Backyard, be resistant to spiritual or soul attacks? Unless there is something about the Rattle swords we don't know about.
From the very beginning, the RATTLE katanas were "created" along with Ramlethal herself inside the Backyard.
So from that point onward, they had spiritual features to them that a sword forged in the outside world probably would NOT have.
And while Happy Chaos himself has similar origins, there are different properties to speak of when talking about the difference between a "normal" Backyard Resident, and a being that was "corrupted" by Negative Information.
When the Valentines were created, they utilized the properties of GEAR Cells (from a VERY specific Gear, Justice), a specific kind of Human, and various other useful data that would aid a Valentine's powers in the outside world.
However, with Demihumans and Youkai, they have slightly "different" circumstances related to their birth: some are born from "strong beliefs", "rumors", "fears", "intense thoughts/feelings towards something or someone", or even simply an "intense focus" that manifests itself as a living being or monster.
With Demihumans/Youkai in particular, some are formed from Positive thoughts, while others are formed from Negative thoughts and fears, the former are often associated with Guardians, Deities, and Treasured Objects and Folklore associated with those... However the latter often bear Curses, Deadly properties, and dark Legends surrounding their existences.
You can think of it as similar to the concepts of "Yin" and "Yang" which are focused on both Positive and Negative energies.
That is not to say that all Negative Energy is "bad" or that all Positive Energy is "good" in classification, but in the natural sense of things, it is similar to the difference between Nutritional things and Poison depending on the being or person it affects.
In the case of a being like Izuna... he was born from the well-wishes of a dying woman who wished to see if her husband was safe... and thus Izuna was born as a "guardian" of sorts for human well-being born from an Kanzashi Hair Ornament.
But when you look at a being like I-No:, she was born from the fears and dreads of Humans towards GEAR-Kind: the nightmares and hatred of Gears and the desire for a world free of war and conflict with Gears.
Is I-No's existence truly a Negative existence though? Hard to tell.
With Happy Chaos though... he was exposed to "pure" (undiluted) amounts of Negative Thoughts, Negative Emotions, and dark intent that literally transformed his body and twisted its appearance...
If that sort of thing can transform a "human" in to a "monster"... imagine what it could do to an entire POPULACE of people... that's how potentially DANGEROUS Happy Chaos actually IS.
Just like it's "common knowledge" to avoid toxic chemicals or poison... this is the sort of thing you SHOULD avoid for your HEALTH!
Happy Chaos already classified himself as something akin to an "undead corpse" saying he was "already dead" when he confronted Nagoriyuki (and even Giovanna stated that something "reeks" when she got a wiff of his scent).
But well, just as humans use cleaning chemical agents to get rid of stains and corrupt and rotting elements, there are entities that are the complete OPPOSITE of what Happy Chaos is by nature... beings that COULD purify if not wipe out his very existence!
Thus far, Folklore often hints that the Japanese people are often known for using methods to kill Demons and Ghosts, so those "ancient methods" are most likely the key to defeating something of "undiluted darkness" like Happy Chaos.
Even the very bloodline of the Japanese is tied to the extermination of spiritual entities that have a negative impact on this world...
As for Ramlethal herself... while one might speculate that she has no immediate ties to Eastern culture, just the mere fact she uses Katanas and the "sacred methods used" for forging said katanas, speaks positively towards her case as a potential enemy to Dark Energies (and Chaos).

I have complicated thoughts on this season of Star Trek Picard… there was so much I loved and adored… and yet, there were other things that I struggled with. So I want to review Star Trek Picard and interrogate that phrase… return to Trek.

I need to go back to the frame of mind where I watch this show for the dumb vibes and stop thinking about how clumsy the messaging is on certain topics like anger, disability, bodily autonomy, etc. I don’t have the bandwidth to deal with anything else right now.
I need to enjoy the pretty people, and turn off my brain.

A Symphony of Gratitude
Embracing Acceptance and Celebrating the Interconnected Tapestry of Existence In the intricate dance of life, where every step, every encounter, and every moment is a note in the symphony of our existence, there lies a profound space for acceptance and gratitude. As our dialogue on Guru Viking with Steve James drew towards its close, I found myself enveloped in a deep sense of gratitude,…
