no love however brief is wasted no love however brief
i think of a girl running to hug me with a force that almost knocks me down, but it holds me up for it is love, for it is as kind as it is bold
i think of a friend squeezing me in a hug so hard i forget to breathe and lose all my strength, forget to hug back
i think of a smile resembling a crescent moon and laughing in the dark theatre room because we have no idea what next
i think of an old person whose face hasn't yet faded from memory but soon will, one i've come to resent but never stopped loving
when i think of love
i think of you
and you're in so many people
you're in the cold of the floor
you're in the songs i don't listen to anymore
you're in the poem i wrote on a sunny day
you're in the friend i haven't seen in months
you're in the peers i see everyday
and i dont miss you
i dont miss you because you didn't leave
and also my longing for you breaches my ability to live
did you know if you had a number i would text you everyday regardless of whether you see?
because you never saw anyway
and i never stopped needing you to see anyway
did you know i look for you in every person i meet?
because i never found you, because maybe you're not here, because maybe i lost you before i had you
because maybe this need to find home in a person is hopeless,
because maybe the poets romanticized love so much,
because it doesn't make the grass greener or the world clearer, it only sustains you for greater suffering, and i don't know what to make of that
so i will not think of the world ending, instead, because i read somewhere that there are people to love and dishes to do in the meantime

You've been on quite the journey, haven't you?
We only got you in 2018. You were already an older lady by then -- we don't know *how* old you were, unfortunately -- but even then I was hearing about how much life you've lived. Before you were with us, you were with my uncle; before him, a woman I'll probably never meet; and back and back and back. You've lived all over the neighborhood, in all manner of homes with all manner of families.
I was so charmed by your "tough old lady" demeanor from the start. I knew there was someone softer under there, and I'm truly humbled that you let me get to know her... At the same time, I'm surprised you trusted me as much as you did. After trading so many hands, I wouldn't know what to make of everything. It's inspiring, honestly. I'm gonna have to take a page out of your book on how to accept love as openly as you did.
You probably had more varied home experiences than I've had. You offered so much companionship to so many different homes, and I'm honored that ours was part of your story.
It feels wrong giving you our last name, because you weren't just a part of our family -- you were family to the whole neighborhood. So, I feel like this title is the most proper way to honor you.

1670's costume department being great OR how zofia's relationship with rozalia is reflected in her wardrobe
Zofia starts off as a very closed-off character with a morbid sense of humor and equally morbid religiousity. That's the thing that is the most visible about her. Over the course of the story she changes and grows, her bond to Rozalia changes her, makes her life better. And this is so very clearly seen in her costuming I couldn't not talk about it. Spoilers for the first season of 1670 ahead.
To start, the first two episodes. These show her in quite the same way - she is covered head to toe in black (and bits of brown) with a crucifix as her only jewelery. The fabric varies, of course, but the color stays the same old black. It may also connect her to Jakub, also covered in black as a priest. Thus, black shows not only her obsession with death but also her devotion to religion (in her second scene she literally lies on the floor like a cross chanting ave maria)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(not important, but i just love how Zofia and Jakub are mother and son in terms of looks. especially noticeable when they stand closely)
The third episode brings changes from the very beginning. This is when we meet Rozalia, and right away Zofia is different. Rozalia comes and brings the air of spring and violets; Rozalia comes and Zofia wears something white. (TBF this is an important day, a celebration of sorts, so white is sort f Moreover, she shows her skin - first behind a white collar (but we still see quite a lot of skin) and then we see her in her bedroom for the first time, and that's when we first see her that vulnerable - when she talks to camera of Rozalia bringing her worries. When everyone leaves, we see her in her bedroom again, holding Rozalia's finger, and again she is covered fully in black, maybe assuming she will not encounter her again.

Next two episodes we see none of their interactions, but Zofia is changed already. She begins wearing blue and violet - barely distinguishable from black in the candle light of her home at times which may be a coincidence and a trick of light yet may also symbolise that to her family she is the same, more or less. But in the light of day the blue and violet are bright and vibrant, as though she can't hide from everyone completely however she tries. And she does try - blue sleeves may catch your eye but the overcoats and overskirts stay black or dark.

The nest episode, Zofia starts talking about someone new in her life - yet with her husband entering and mentioning Henrik she changes it for their lives, life of the family. And telling this, she is wearing the same dress but even more open without a collar and seemingly vibrant (so bright it is noticeable even in the house - showcasing Aniela suspects something is going own?). Her crucifix is also higher on her chest and her caul/cap/hood is decorated. After meeting Rozalia she feels and is brighter, happier, and it is almost harder to hide.
(While this outfit does have a purpose in the episode, I do believe there was an opportunity to just let her wear the same black-and-white dress from the second episode. Or to make the lightning more similar to make her dress appear darker. So I think this isn't too much of a reach to say that this at least somewhat shows her changing because of the previously shown date with Rozalia.)

And finally, the last episode. The wedding. Time to wear the fanciest clothes. And not only Zofia wears a bright red dress, she also loses her caul/cap/hood exposing her bright ginger hair (perhaps a metaphor for her inner self being eager for some love and happiness that religion, marriage to Jan Pawel can't provide?). Her crucifix is quite high up this time as well and hangs on a string of white pearls, as compared to the previous black beads.
It could be noted that red symbolises love and passion, so not only is the color appropriate in the context of the wedding but also in the context of her love to Rozalia (and passion - having sex in your and your husband's bed while the husband could potentially come in is an interesting decision).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(just a note - when Zofia leaves with Rozalia, her overcoar has these cute hearts on it. she doesn't get an opportunity to wear it again.)
Although she loses Rozalia later (and drowns her sorrows in the tavern), her dress doesn't change. She is changed by their romance. Not her dress, not her hair, not her crucifix. Not one part of her that was changed by love is given up, whatever she says of family coming first for ever and ever.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
What fucks me up the most is this final portait. It feels like some wwdits shit, I swear to gods. The way that she is changed and doesn't attempt to hide it and yet the portrait shows the early, unhappily married, closed-off version of her? And her dress is the one she was wearing during her first meeting with Rozalia? Insane shit. I understand that this has some white so this is probably supposed to be just her in her Sunday/good clothes; but also, I remember the sweater and earrings I was wearing on my first date with my first girlfriend. And I would believe Zofia does, too.
TL;DR: Zofia's outfits change during the 1st season of 1670 as her relationship with Rozalia grow; her life, as her dresses, become brighter and more colorful because of love she found; and the said love, however broken up they are in the end, stays with Zofia despite her choosing family over it. All the while she barely changes for her family.

Listen, I was belittled and made fun of as a kid for any kind of pleasure or enjoying things (Catholic) so now I think it’s vitally important to be a little bit weird about the shit you love and to throw yourself entirely into projects and interest sometimes.
I know your initial reaction, if you’re someone who grew up like me, is to bury a thing as soon as someone notices it to keep it safe but you can’t do that! I’m 32 and even today the people I meet who are most excited to tell me about their current rabbit hole or current niche project almost always end up being My People.

reminder for 2024 news years that your love has never once been meaningless and unfounded and that it will all come back rushing through you like you've never felt before and you'll feel sososo glad you kept your heart open rather than being numb to it all the time. we will all die someday and love will be what remains.
