maybe i'm missing something but does cohost not show any numbers at all? i know i've gone on record saying that numbers (likes and reblogs etc) don't really mean anything, but it's definitely... weird... to have them be completely absent. somehow it makes the whole "posting experience" feel even more isolated and quiet than it does on here. i don't like it

u know one thing that annoys me. but i can't say it annoys me in a way that ppl around me will understand. i hate when people say some version of 'tribal/indigenous people are gatekeepers to much needed and very useful traditional knowledge because they live like the past, like the ancients'. which is like,,,,sure i guess but also what's this social darwinist adjacent take.

Dashi please?
ok buckle up kiddos because I have some hot takes about Dashi.
yk how I was just talking about Shellington, and how he's lovable but in desperate need of lore?
Dashi's the same. I love her—she just... has so little. sure, she's got her core personality: secret daredevil, strong-but-still-feminine, clever, artsy, sporty, tech girl. but past that? I feel like she's missing the ✨ spark ✨ that Shellington has. the only lick of lore she has is her thing with Ryla, but they've barely even touched on that since SA.
I came to the realization recently that most of my favourite things about Dashi are the things I've made up about her; my own headcanons and theories.
she wasn't super active in the main series (she doesn't have her own special), and you can tell that they're really TRYING to fix this in AnB, by making her "Captain of the Octoray" and having her in almost every other episode, but... still. I don't know if this'll make sense, but it feels like she's not evolving, she's changing, and that's a whole other thing. she's there all the time, yeah, but a lot of her big episodes so far (off the top of my head) have to do with either the Octoray, Koshi, or someone else. I think she deserves better.
imo her best episodes are The Manta Rays, Surfing Snails, Wild Windstorms (which has an Octoray focus), The Longfin Eels (which is a Koshi ep), and a S5 episode that I can't talk about yet. she's a character who I think would benefit greatly from an "alone-time" episode (ie: an ep where she's forced to be completely on her own); Peso got a bunch of them, and they were some of his best.
give Dashi some SPICE, silvergate, please 🙏
also, her camera was such a big part of her personality in the main series, but we've barely seen it at all in AnB. where is it? what happened to national seaographic? honestly, with them being on land so often, I would've expected them to get a proper introduction by now.

In the same vibe as Percy choking Akhlys, may I suggest :
Nico causing wounds to necrotize. Even from a small scratch on your finger, it spreads so fast your only hope is an amputation asap.
Jason holding the air still in your lungs. You're not dying because you don't have air, but because you can't get it out and are literally choking.
Hazel controlling stones in jewelries. Imagine getting chocked by your necklace, your finger being sectioned by your ring, being handcuffed by your bracelets, your head being crushed between your earrings...
Thalia manipulating the electricity in your body. Causing your nervous system to move in certain ways, or just shutting down your brain activity.
The big 3 are terrifying, and I wish we would've seen them (others than Percy) being more op. Cmon Rick, show us reasons the gods are afraid of them !
