Yep, yep yep yep, fully agree and am also a fan of the concept behind Kinstugi.
Though I think that kintsugi more specifically refers to … well, a literal artform/method of repair of things like glasses, cups, vases, etc…
Yeah, the general idea of … just repairing things that break, instead of replacing them wholly… making do with what you have and what you know…
We all need to shift toward that.
Reduce, reuse, recycle, repair.
We are living in a cyberpunk dystopia and if we ever want it to inch toward a solarpunk alternative, we will need to do with what exists, produce less literal mountains and islands of garbage.
… Beyond that, you could say that a kind of custom repair like this is literally building character.
