Post Truth 3- this weekend

The poor old man is still not feeling well - yet, he is waking up to the fact that there is no where to go - hopefully, he will be awake soon and we will experience less up and down.
I am on my way too.

This weekend, I strived to be pragmatic.

We had a repair event this weekend. Few people came over to get their item repaired. We received £40 of donations. The repair event only happen once every 6 weeks, it is a great opportunity to learn something, have a nice chat with people and get something from home sorted. We started to work on my laptop. We took all the data out for me to transfer on another device. We will work on it at next event on the 25th March.

I had few pieces of fabric to deal with at home. I have made 4 dolls, two juggling balls, a bracelet. I started cutting off some felt to make some pads.
I cooked, cleaned, prepare myself for the week to come.

Hopefully, it will be a good week.

Blacklist

It may be time to create a blacklist of companies to avoid and definitely refuse to  work for: - Those which are more than 3 miles than my home - Those which does not allow me to work from home - Those which does not allow me to work fewer hours - Those which pollute with no sorry - Those with negative employee reviews - Those which do not design products that are repairable - Those which do not put the wellbeing of their staff first what else, add to the list

Missminimalist , Thank you

I was hooked to missminimalist blogs in the past four days, reading approximately 16 pages of individuals testimonies on how they started and enjoyed their minimalist journey. It opened my eyes on the endless minimalist lifestyles that any of us can implement. I admire the traveller, the spiritualist, the true materialist (as opposed to consumerist), the mindful, the artist, the mum, the dad, the designer who with intention choose to keep the things that add value to his/her life and get rid of the frivolous. Beyond just getting rid of things, there is not participating to our current wasteful society, it is recognising that we are all equal regardless of what we own and finally it is embracing freedom. It is why I love it. I encourage you to have a read/rid, I hope it will inspire you:  http://www.missminimalist.com/

Graham & Thrift Out of Order

In the article put forward by Graham & Thrift, he strive to put  forward that repair and maintenance is the central component of the development of economies. and a basis of our survival there is different way the article canbe quite useful within the thesis. First, in indicating that repair provide an opportunity for the being to actually learn and develop oneself through a process of innovation, indicating there and then that repair is the premist of innovation, it is when soemthing break that theindividual tend to develop himself by trying to find way to repair the item Second, that repair processes that happen in citieiss and in everyday life tend to be hidden from mot people who cannot see it happenign by reading report or hearing report when they are actually happening. people can only foresee the item as well when the alter is broken, when it works they cannot actualyy xsee the item but only focus on its function. there is all the chapter about e-waste at the ...
