Earlier today I had a one handed Cartier Tank homage, because the hour hand fell of the shaft of the moment.
But this evening, I finally mustered up all my courage and decided to try to fix it.
I am really proud of myself right now, because I (yes, me) fixed it.

#OrilliaOntario - Need something fixed? #Orillia #RepairCafé returning in April
Event taking place April 5 at St. James' Anglican Church
Mar 14, 2025
"Local residents are invited to bring their broken or torn possessions to St. James’ Church on Saturday, April 5 (11 a.m. to 3 p.m.), where 'fixers' will be on hand to make repairs and turn their 'trash' into 'treasure' at the eighth Orillia Repair Café, which takes place twice a year.
"The event is supported by local volunteers and Sustainable Orillia, St. James’ Anglican Church and Lake Country Time Trade.
"Light refreshments will be provided as well as child-friendly activities. A new feature this year will be '#BookSwaps,' one for adults and one for children. The café has a friendly and fun ambience and combines an enjoyable family activity with a rewarding outcome.
"Annalise Stenekes has led the project since its inception and has gathered a dedicated and talented team of fixers who will attempt to repair a variety of items, including bicycles, lamps, home appliances, sewing machines, jewelry and audio/visual and computer equipment. Small furniture items will be repaired, clothing and footwear mended and toys given new life.
"Last year, 230 kilograms of items were given a new lease on life, diverting potential waste from the #landfill and saving an estimated $1,000.
"'#Repairing and #reusing broken items, as opposed to disposing of them and purchasing new ones, is a practical and meaningful contribution we can make for our environment,' says local resident Wendy Kirk. 'The Repair Café is also a feel-good place — at times the joy is tangible when someone’s prized item is restored to its former usefulness.'
"Repair Café events are happening around the world, saving money, reducing landfill waste, cutting CO2 emissions, promoting learning and fostering community connections."

Vielleicht kann mir jemand helfen: Unser Kärcher Fenstersauger (WV 6 Plus) geht nach der ersten Akkuladung überhaupt nicht mehr. Keine Aufladeanzeige, keine blinkende LED, nichts.
In einem Anflug ADHS'schen Übermuts habe ich ihn auseinander gebaut. Motor läuft noch, wenn ich ihm direkt Strom gebe. Auch Akkus haben noch Ladung, wenn ich es direkt messe. Ein SMD sieht angekohlt aus. Misst 10 Ohm widerstand, aufgedruckt ist "100". Kann es das sein? Was könnte ich noch prüfen? #Kärcher #repairing -
Preparing an animation in our #HeritageCentre about a special #exhibition on the subject of #colporteurs / #pedlars / #Hausierer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peddler
We slip into the costumes + roles of these #travelling traders. I play the ancestress of an #RepairCafe #repairing clothes. 😉 And as used to be the case, I need goods to get me through the winter. So I make #luckyCharms from scraps of #fabric. Will they still be popular in the 21st century? 🤔 -

So I'm doing some thinking and came to the question of what exactly am I doing here. (In so many contexts, but let's stick to the #Mastodon one for now.)
And the answer came that essentially I'm a #repairer. It's my main #hobby and if I didn't have to have a job then that's what I'd like to do instead.
So if future toots, that's what I'm going to discuss.
Watch this space.

@praxeology
A UBI is generally how we tackle this problem equitably.A passionate #researcher can take the time they need to do their #research. But similarly an #entreprenuer can take a small part time job supplemented by a #UBI while doing R&D, a #volunteer can accept UBI while building #FOSS software or #repairing stuff etc.
It's possible – we just need to push a bit harder.
