In the comments to these weekly posts (and only these posts), it's your chance to go as off topic as you like. Talk about non-comics stuff, thread derail, and just generally chat among yourselves.
The intent of these posts is to chat and have some fun and, sure, vent a little as required. Reasoned debate is fine, as always, but if you have to ask if something is going over the line, think carefully before posting please.

The UK is poised to consider cephalpods and crustaceans (So octopi, squid, lobsters and crabs etc) as sentient beings.Doctor Who: Flux gave us episode 5, which was a bit "setting things up for the finale" heavy and not as strong as the Weeping Angels episode, but did give us some nice world building for UNIT, and overall did what it set out to do I think. I also did like Yaz, Dan and Professor Jericho travelling the globe even if we did get told a lot more than we were shown, but their visit to Nepal was perhaps the funniest scene in a long, long time.
And a Happy Hanukkah to those who celebrate it!
