Jamie Dornan: Actor pays tribute to late dad as he receives honorary degree from Queen’s
The star of The Tourist has come back to Northern Ireland to be honoured as an honorary graduate at the university his late father attended.
Co Down actor Jamie Dornan has been awarded a Doctorate for distinction in the arts at Queen’s University, Belfast.
The Holywood man is the recipient of two Irish Film and Television Awards and has also been nominated for a BAFTA and a Golden Globe Award.
His father Professor Jim Dornan passed away aged 73 in 2021 after contracting Covid in Dubai, but Jamie could not see him because he was in Australia to film The Tourist.
The retired obstetrician and gynaecologist had considered a career in acting before turning to medicine, but he later had small parts in The Fall, in which Jamie played serial killer Paul Spector, and the third series of Marcella, starring Anna Friel.
Speaking at the Queen’s ceremony, Jamie said: “It’s a huge honour. My dad went to this university, there are pictures in my house of my dad wearing a similar robe. I’m very proud to be involved in this great university.”
Belfast Telegraph
Remember… my dad went to this university, there are pictures in my house of my dad wearing a similar robe. — Jamie Dornan, DUniv

Image Description: tweet from The Spectator Index (@.spectatorindex) dated December 12, 2023 that says:
BREAKING: The Wall Street Journal reports that the Israeli military has begun pumping seawater into Hamas tunnels in Gaza
End of description.
Tumblr media
Israel doesn't know where the tunnels are and the tunnels themselves aren't interconnected so flooding won't work. They tried this before and it failed.
This is just them salting the earth, making it impossible for Gazans to plant crops. This will ensure that Palestinians starve even after the Israeli army withdraws

Live Review: The Darkness at New Century Hall in Manchester 12 December 2023
Words: Ben Forrester Back in 2003, a bunch of dudes from Lowestoft pretty much took over the world with a flamboyant, throwback cock-rock record called ‘Permission To Land’. No one saw the gargantuan rise of The Darkness coming, but when they hit, they hit hard and that record was absolutely everywhere! It makes sense then that the 20th anniversary of the record this year would see the reformed…

12 December 2023.
Tumblr media
[ID: White text on a red background reads “BDS works. PUMA forced to drop sponsorship of Team Apartheid Israel.” A dark red silhouette of a cougar walks towards the right. A link at the bottom reads bdsmovement.net/boycott-puma. End ID]
It’s true. And it’s big.
PUMA won’t be renewing its contract with the Israel Football Association (IFA).
This is a BDS win, a win for Palestinian rights, and a win for people-powered pressure on corporations complicit in grave crimes.
This is also your win. You protested outside PUMA offices and shops. You convinced teams, athletes, artists, and stores to dump PUMA. You filled PUMA’s inbox. You jammed PUMA’s phone lines. You hijacked PUMA’s online presence. You called out PUMA’s hypocrisy. You boycotted PUMA products. You ruffled PUMA’s CEO to the point he inadvertently said “BDS” while talking about the Better Cotton Initiative at last year’s shareholders meeting.
We’ve demonstrated, once again, that together, via long-term strategic campaigns, we can force even multinational corporations to end their complicity in Israel’s regime of military occupation and apartheid.
Companies and institutions that still support Israeli apartheid and enable Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza are on notice. There will be consequences. We can and will cause reputational damage. And we won’t stop until they fully end complicity.
This boycott win is a bittersweet victory as Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Palestinians continues. But it gives us hope and determination to hold all genocide enablers and apartheid supporters accountable until all Palestinians can live in freedom, justice and equality.
PUMA’s contract with the IFA expires in June 2024. Let’s make sure PUMA ends all complicity in Israeli apartheid.
In solidarity,
Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI)

Fic: Reservations
Fandom/pairing: Glee, Kurt/Blaine
Event: December Klaine Fanworks Challenge 2023, day 12: rail
Words: ~ 650 words                                 
Rating: Mature
Summary: Cooper gives Blaine a present and some advice.
Notes: This is part of my Mormon!Klaine universe. It takes place after Out of Eden, which I am still in the process of posting to AO3. It’s among the likely possibilities for their future. It’s sort of a continuation of Proposal, and it's rated mature only for dialog.
* * *
Right as Blaine pulled up to the departure terminal at the Phoenix airport, Cooper made a surprise announcement.
“I know you and Kurt were planning to stay with the family of a friend of some missionary you met in Germany when you go to Salt Lake City, but frankly, that's stupid. I mean, if you really want to meet them, you can have lunch. You two must be desperate for privacy after your crazy homecoming.” Cooper tapped something into his phone. “There. I sent you the reservations. Hotel’s right off Temple Square. Can you believe I was able to get you a honeymoon suite at this short notice? It's even got a view of the temple, since you two still seem to be into that kind of thing. If not, I guess you can always close the curtains.”
A notification buzzed on Blaine’s phone. It was an email from Cooper with all the info about the reservation. Even with it right there in front of his eyes, Blaine was having a hard time processing. "Honeymoon suite?”
“Yeah. It's my wedding present to you.”
Blaine's mouth went dry. This was supposed to be a secret. How many people knew? “Wedding... present?”
Cooper put his hand on Blaine’s shoulder. “Look, I know I shouldn't eavesdrop, and I didn't mean to, but if you don't want people to overhear you, then maybe you shouldn't be talking in the kitchen about whether or not Kurt needs to send home for his birth certificate.”
“It was four-thirty in the morning! Everyone was supposed to be asleep! When are you up at four-thirty in the morning?”
"What can I say? I'm unpredictable. Directors love that about me. But I knew you wouldn't, so I had to go back into my bedroom and hide and not get up until 6 a.m. just so you two wouldn't freak out.”
But Blaine was doing exactly that right now. “Does anyone else know? Does Mom know?”
Cooper shook his head. “If you're asking if I told anyone, no, I didn't. And I'm certain no one else knows, or someone would've called a family meeting about it. You're fine. Just be careful.”
“I'm trying. Our family is just so—”
"I wasn't talking about our family. Screw them. I was talking about when you’re in the honeymoon suite. There's a Jacuzzi, and I know how newlyweds are about Jacuzzis. To those who haven't tried it, spontaneous sex in a Jacuzzi sounds like the best thing ever, but it's really not. The water washes away almost every kind of lubrication, natural or man-made. But if you're that desperate to get railed in a Jacuzzi—or to do some railing, or exchange handjobs, or whatever, I don't want to make any assumptions—you need to get some silicone lube and practice applying it first. If a hole will be involved, maybe even put some in there before you get in the water. A little goes a long way. And not your mouth. Do not put silicone lube in your m—”
Blaine hid his face against the steering wheel. “Oh my gosh Cooper, why are you so—” A car horn blared behind them.
“Guess I should get going,” Cooper said casually, as if he hadn’t just been giving Blaine a graphic lecture on sexual safety in hot tubs. “We can't sit in the drop-off zone all day. Hug for your big brother?”
Blaine had half a mind to kick his brother out of the car without even looking at him. But the other half convinced him not to. Red-faced, he leaned over the console to hug his brother. “Thanks, Coop. Not for the unsolicited sex advice, but … you know.”
"Well, I've got a big trust fund from my first mom that our dad was thankfully never allowed to touch, and I've got to do so something good with it.”
"Not for that. I mean, yes, thanks for the hotel, but also…” Blaine trailed off. He wasn't crying, exactly, but he did have to sniffle.
“I know, bunso," Cooper said, rubbing Blaine’s back. "I know.”
