Superman and Mission: Impossible star Henry Cavill will lead Netflix's The Witcher TV series

Henry Cavill has been playing one of the most iconic comic book characters ever since 2013's Man of Steel, and now he's adding to his geek cred by taking on the mantle of a gaming's most recognisable anti-heroes of the last few years.

Yup, the Justice League and Mission: Impossible actor is going to be playing Geralt of Rivia in Netflix's TV adaptation of The Witcher, the popular fantasy saga book series from Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski that was later turned into a popular game series.

Set in a fantasy world, The Witcher follows the adventures of Geralt, a contracted hunter of foul beasties.

The Netflix synopsis makes it clear the series will be based on the books, describing it as "an epic tale of fate and family".

Over 300,000 kids bunk off school - England World Cup

Over 300,000 kids bunk off school, seemingly more interested in football than education. I wonder if these are the same kids the rightwing pearl clutchers insist are being discriminated against in schools? https://www.theguardian.com/education/2026/jul/06/thousands-of-children-absent-from-school-in-wake-of-overnight-england-world-cup-win

https://leavingmaga.org/ Dear MAGA Americans, I was a devoted member of MAGA nation for seven years; it made me feel I was part of something important: a movement that was trying to save American democracy. But starting in 2021, I realized I had been mistaken. It took me a full year to finally break away. During that time, I came to understand that MAGA is sustained by a series of myths that are intended to create perpetual feelings of desperation and panic. Succumbing to these predatory myths

Farage faces Clacton showdown as rivals refuse to stand Nigel Farage's dramatic gamble to resign as MP and force a by-election has taken another extraordinary twist after Labour, the Conservatives, the Liberal Democrats, the Greens and Restore Britain all announced they will not contest the seat. The Reform UK leader resigned his Clacton seat insisting voters—not Westminster—should judge the allegations surrounding his finances. If re-elected, Farage says he will return to Parliament with an

The hypocrisy , the SPLC eagerly brands conservatives and ordinary Americans as "extremists" for far less, but suddenly gets to

I can set a watch when he comes into the forum, and see the thumbs downs following suit on all of my recent posts. If it's not you, it's me. if not me, it's a multitude of others, steadily growing in number until it encompasses the whole member list. It is funny.
