Exit 75

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.

Normal board rules about conduct and behaviour still apply, of course.

It's been suggested that, if discussing spoilers for recent media events, it might be advisable to consider using the rot13 method to prevent other members seeing spoilers in passing.

The world situation is the world situation. If you're following the news, you know it as much as I do, if you're not, then there are better sources than scans_daily. But please, no doomscrolling, for your own sake.

In the search for non contentious news (because there's a lot of the alternative flying around) I did find this amazing story about a bucket. but not just ANY old bucket!

Sesame Street will be continuing on Netflix after PBS had it's funding cut

Despite being the nominally "silly" episode about a pastiche of the Eurovision Song Contest, Doctor Who had not one, but TWO major plot reveals, one of which was confirming a long-standing rumour about Mrs Flood, and the other was (for this spoiler-free viewer) breath-taking to see, and a pointed (and honestly rather disturbing) reminder that even this "Post-therapy" incarnation of the Doctor does not cope well with loss. A reminder of ROT13 for spoilers on this one please!
