The 'Floating Synagogue' • Jewish Chronicle Archive

The Queen Mary, the Cunard ocean liner, was the epitome of 1930s luxury and glamour. And amidst the magnificent Art Deco salons and restaurants, was the world’s first floating synagogue. It was officially known as the ‘Scroll Room’ – perhaps the word ‘synagogue’ was too explicit for the times.

Having a synagogue on board was the suggestion of the Jewish Chronicle who felt that Jewish passengers would need somewhere to pray on the four day voyage from Southampton to New York.

At first, the suggestion was politely rejected by Cunard but the Jewish Chronicle persisted and even offered to raise the funds needed to pay for it from within the Anglo-Jewish community. The architect Cecil Epstein offered his services free of charge and the Chief Rabbi and the Chairman of the Jewish Chronicle’s Board made an official approach to Cunard.

Cunard relented (and funded) the ‘Scroll Room’ – the world’s first floating synagogue.

#life #like every single fucken time!!! #i scroll through my dash and see gifs or art and stuff #and my hand is just gliding to the notes #it's fucking depressing honestly #and if i do that to my own posts it's fucking over #like i've been trying my best to focus on just making stuff for my own enjoyment and artistic expression #but that well is running dry ngl #people here take so much shit for granted everything is fucking content to be consumed #so many blogs just hoard posts in their likes like a little board in their room where they pin posts #it's exhausting honestly

You would think with the amount of time I've invested into Skyrim, that I would know my way around the Ratway,but I,in fact, do not.

#feykrorovaan #I can finally leave. Miraak I'm coming home sweetie. I'M BACK IN THE ROOM WITH THE AXE AGAIN?!? #elder scrolls #tes #skyrim #tesblr #Riften #The Ratway is my least favorite part of the Blades portion of the main quest after dealing with Delphine. #The sewers and Dwarven ruins are my two least favorite places to be.

every time i see "Ed asks Lucius to write down his lyrics" used as an argument for claiming that Ed can't write i just want to. you know. point out that Stede has Lucius write down everything he says?? and does?? all the time?? and when he can't find Lucius he asks Frenchie (who actually cannot write) to do it instead of just writing it himself. and we know Stede can write. it's got nothing to do with ability to write, just that the captains don't seem to want to write stuff themselves when they have an employee whose job is to do that exact thing for them

#this is not with any specific post in mind but i think this every time that point is brought up #like idk if ed can write (i think he can based on the scrolls and books in his room and he can definitely read) #and he is a genius no matter what #but i just think it's ~funny~ how 'ed asks lucius to write sth down instead of writing it himself' is used to argue that ed CAN'T do it #when stede does it ALL THE TIME. FROM THE VERY BEGINNING #it's just fancy captain behavior and having lucius do his job (his actual job and not whatever izzy seems to think lucius' job is lmao) #ok now i got it out thanks this keeps bothering me #ofmd #our flag means death #ofmd meta #i guess #also it's hard to write while eating jam AND staring dramatically at a candle i totally get it #like if i had a scribey person in my employ i would also choose to dictate to them instead of writing myself lmao especially with quills

I just can’t stop wondering how much we don’t know because we can’t hear it - because of sherlock & co being recorded.

how many times had john rolled his eyes at sherlock when he was being ridiculous, but smiled to himself the moment he turned around? how many times had mariana leaned in the doorway to 221b baker street and silently but fondly watched john and sherlock bickering? how many times sherlock just didn’t say anything when archie climbed on his lap and instead started to scratch behind the dog’s ears?

how many gentle smiles, cheeky grins and warm gazes with sparkling eyes? fingers touching one’s arm, hands on the shoulder or tight hugs? how much affection spread without words?

how much is being not said, left to imagination?

#sherlock and co #can’t sleep at night because of this #how much nonverbal acts of affection happens during all those dialogues we hear every week? #making each other tea in the morning? #laying on one’s beds scrolling on the phone while the other cleans the room? #washing the dishes together where one rinses and the other dries therefore fingers touching when passing the plates? #the constant emanating warmth in those two flats on baker street must feel amazing #john watson #sherlock #sherlock holmes #goalhanger #goalhanger podcasts #sherlock & co #johnlock #mariana ametxazurra

I loved Louka Anargyros's ceramic sculpture collection "Locker Room" so I was looking through his Instagram. He had posted pictures of when he conceptualised the piece and I kid you not Marc and Vale are literally tacked on the board. Their gay ass podium selfie is literally on the inspiration board, plus their leathers.

#I scrolled through his ig and was like #hold awnnnn a minute that looks familiar #I love this with my whole heart btw #I got some more pictures from the earlier pieces he did I am pretty sure one is directly inspired by Vale's Yamaha leathers #I am crazyyy about this btw I need alllll of you to see and process this #valentino rossi #marc marquez #dani pedrosa #louka anargyros #louka Anargyros you have given us so much #the locker room piece was acquired btw so good for him #it genuinely was great #rosquez #motogp #motogp exhibit #sculpture #art #vale #not the first time their gay ass has inspired a bunch of art tho

#at the risk of sounding insane. i logged into my old account to do some digital housekeeping & i scrolled a little on foursaints #to see what it looked like from the outside! i generally never reread my old posts so that was also sort of fun. #respectfully? it slapped. what the fuck. i would read this like the morning news #i kept agreeing with my own opinions 😭 i need to be in a padded room & that’s my only enrichment

I think Bakugou loves you in such ways, that it seems small to other people. They ask you, how is he romantic? He doesn’t seem like the type—how does he woo you? Love you? And the answer comes so easily to you.

He loves you in ways that are overlooked by a glutton. He runs out into the rain when you come home from a long day, umbrella ready. The only thing you have to do is hold the handle, and he holds you—doesn’t let your feet touch the muddy ground, answers to your giggling inquiry of why you can’t walk with, because you’re too clumsy for your own good. That he can’t afford any more gauze or bandaids because of your slip ups, but he kisses them tender every time, anyway.

He loves you in ways that are simple, but carry more meaning than meets the eye. He buys your favorite food, your comfort snack along with it, stops at the convenience store to pick up those gross flavored drinks you swear by. It’s not even an ask from him, just a natural order of things, to spoil you in ways that come easily, in ways that you can’t help but praise, in ways that he becomes bashful because to him, all he’s doing is the bare minimum.

He loves you in ways that make your chest warm and your eyes sting. He adapts to you and your emotions, learns when holding you is enough and when his brash words of encouragement are needed. He reassures you, kisses kindly behind your ears when you need his voice of reasoning. He listens and he does and he tries and even though he thinks it may never be enough, it’s always the right timing.

Bakugou loves you in everyday small gestures that equal a lifetime of adoration. That shows you he doesn’t just tolerate you with the occasional grand gesture to shut your nagging up. He loves you everyday, chooses to, and the overwhelming feeling of being loved by Bakugou is something you don’t think anyone could truly ever understand.

#am I riding a soft bkg train??????? of course #everyone hop on pls #I thought of this whole brushing my teeth and ofc it sounded better in my head lmfao #writing it down was like ‘no that’s not how mental me said it….’ lol #ANYWAY my eyes burn and I yam sleepy #I’m decorating my room again tomorrow so I have to wake up early so gn!!! #I say as I scroll until my sleep meds knock me on my ass #—new treat in the streets! 🍫 #bakugou treats! 🍬

I was in my room, scrolling through Tumblr. It tipped me off that it was a dream because we were being too normal on here.
