Missing the days when we actually repaired our gear

We used to fix stuff, not just toss it out. Now everything's disposable, and it's wrecking the planet, lol. Bring back repair culture for real climate action.

Seriously, was the learning curve the best part?

Notice how fixing things became less normal over time. Was it really just cheaper to replace stuff, or did we start feeling social pressure to always have the newest things instead of maintained ones?
