Visit a Repair Café Near You



Repair Cafés are free meeting places and they’re all about repairing things (together). In the place where a Repair Café is located, you’ll find tools and materials to help you make any repairs you need. On clothes, furniture, electrical appliances, bicycles, crockery, appliances, toys, et cetera. You’ll also find expert volunteers, with repair skills in all kinds of fields.

Visitors bring their broken items from home. Together with the specialists they start making their repairs in the Repair Café. It’s an ongoing learning process. If you have nothing to repair, you can enjoy a cup of tea or coffee. Or you can lend a hand with someone else’s repair job. You can also get inspired at the reading table – by leafing through books on repairs and DIY.

There are over 2,500 Repair Cafés worldwide. Visit one in your area or start one yourself! See also the house rules we use at the Repair Café.

🚨Ben Gvir a été confronté à l’opposition juive israélo-américaine :
« Meurtrier ! »
« Vous êtes un nazi ! Mes grands-pères sont des survivants de l’Holocauste et ils vous détestent ! »
Le ministre israélien Ben Gvir a été confronté pendant huit minutes à Wall Street après avoir quitté un restaurant, alors qu'il était encerclé par des agents de sécurité privés et la police de New York. Des manifestants se sont rassemblés non loin de là, sur la One Battery Park Plaza, pour s'opposer à son événement organisé par la Shabtai Society de Yale, dans le quartier financier de Manhattan.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Quand l’ #OTAN a rasé la #Yougoslavie en #1999, il n’y avait ni mandat de l’ #ONU, ni agression préalable contre un membre de l’Alliance.
Sous prétexte de protéger le #Kosovo, ils ont bombardé #Belgrade, violé la souveraineté d’un État, imposé la sécession par la force, et appelé ça « intervention humanitaire ».
Aujourd’hui, la #Russie agit selon l’article 51 de la Charte des Nations Unies : assistance légitime aux Républiques du #Donbass, reconnues indépendantes, face à l’agression du régime putschiste de Kiev.
Le Donbass n’a pas demandé l’OTAN, il a demandé Moscou.
Ce que l’Occident a fait au Kosovo sans aucune base légale, la Russie le fait en #Ukraine avec le droit international de son côté.
L’hypocrisie des #États-Unis et de l’ #UE est totale : le droit n’existe pour eux que quand il sert leurs intérêts.

A General Strike is the most effective way to pressure the government to change

Protracted General Strikes have revolutionary potential. They can bring down governments and pave the way to for libertarian communism

Everyone else on the planet is doing it, and has been doing so since 1886, when the U.S. executed 4 anarchists on trumped up charges of throwing a bomb in Haymarket Square, during protests to establish the 8-hour work day in the U.S

Never forget that Grover Cleveland declared Labor Day to be in September because he didn't want the holiday to commemorate the Haymarket affair, which took place at the beginning of May in 1886. >🙁

Conservative Democratic President Grover Cleveland was one of those concerned that a labor holiday on May 1 would tend to become a commemoration of the Haymarket affair and would strengthen socialist and anarchist movements that backed the May 1 commemoration around the globe. In 1887, he publicly supported the September Labor Day holiday as a less inflammatory alternative, formally adopting the date as a United States federal holiday through a law that he signed in 1894.

YIKES: The Democrat Who Wants to Impeach Trump Is Drowning in Fraud and Animal Abuse Scandals

Rep. Shri Thanedar claims Donald Trump inflicted “real damage to our democracy.”

But Thanedar’s own record is riddled with controversy.

According to The Detroit News, he allegedly inflated the value of his chemical testing company before selling it for a massive $20 million payday.

Not long after, the company collapsed—leaving over 170 dogs and monkeys trapped in a shuttered lab without food or water. Activists had to break in to save them.

Now, FEC filings reveal Thanedar’s campaign is buried in debt—over $730,000 in the red—thanks to a mysterious “investment income loss” paid out to none other than Thanedar himself.

That financial mess didn’t go unnoticed.

Dinesh D’Souza unleashed a brutal takedown of Thanedar on X. Watch what he had to say below.

This is infuriating. I deleted my #Facebook and #Instagram accounts over 5 years ago.

Starting this week I've started receiving emails from #Instagram of someone trying to reset the password for my account.

(I don't think they're a phish the headers look like the email actually originated from #Meta.)

But if my account was supposed to be deleted over 5 years ago, how come there is still an account for someone to try to reset the password to it?

Fuck you, Zuck, for not deleting my account like I asked you to. Hope you fucking die and when you die you end up in Hell and the only website you can access is GeoCities!

The real contradiction of Trump is that the US withdrawing almost entirely from all of its agreements and from nearly every country is a *huge* positive for the world and for many countries, despite the immediate consequences.

I'd guess that China will be all over that shit. Watch the new empire replace the old one that imploded under self-owns.

The shattering of the post-WW2 "exceptionalism" of the USA was long past due, despite imperial propaganda to the contrary.

Chère amie, cher ami,

Il y a exactement 20 ans, le peuple français, suivi en cela par les Néerlandais, disait non au Traité Constitutionnel Européen lors d’un référendum. Les dirigeants français ont bafoué ce vote par la signature du Traité de Lisbonne. Bien pire, ils ont cherché à faire disparaitre ce vote des mémoires. Alors que la question de la démocratie devient de plus en plus primordiale, il nous appartient de saluer cet évènement. Organisons donc, partout où nous le pouvons, des rassemblements pour le célébrer. A Paris, ce sera à 18h30 le jeudi 29 mai dans la jardin des Tuileries, allée des Feuillants, en face du 228 rue de Rivoli.

Faisons et diffusons des vidéos de ces rencontres. Diffusons des textes sur ce moment. Le Monde diplomatique, pour sa part, publie en page 3 de son numéro de mai, actuellement en vente, un article de André Bellon sous le titre « 29 mai 2005, un peuple disait Non ». Vous pouvez vous le procurer dans les kiosques. En voici ci-dessous les premières lignes :

29 mai 2005, un peuple disait Non

Commémorer – quel qu’en soit la manière – est censé contribuer à la cohésion nationale. Occulter ne saurait donc être sans importance. « Ce qui m’épouvante, (…) ce n’est pas que le monde moderne détruise tout, c’est qu’il ne s’enrichisse nullement de ce qu’il détruit », écrivait Georges Bernanos. Vingt ans après, que reste-t-il du référendum du 29 mai 2005 par lequel une nette majorité de Français a rejeté le traité constitutionnel européen (TCE) ? Pour beaucoup, le vague souvenir d’un vote populaire bien vite remis en cause. Dans l’ambiance délétère et incertaine de 2025, l’intérêt général ne commande-t-il pas de remettre en lumière cet événement, son sens et sa portée ?

Dès la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, l’idéal européen s’impose autant comme réponse aux contraintes géopolitiques que comme fantasme de paix et de dialogue entre les peuples. Dans le même temps, la Libération apporte, en France, le programme du Conseil national de la Résistance (CNR). D’un côté donc, le marché commun ; de l’autre la primauté donnée à la question sociale : cette contradiction affleure sous la IVe République comme sous le gaullisme sans que ni l’une ni l’autre ne l’arbitre vraiment. Bien qu’on ne s’en aperçut pas alors, l’élection présidentielle de 1981 tranche le nœud gordien en faveur d’une Europe néolibérale. « La France est notre patrie, l’Europe est notre avenir », anticipe François Mitterrand le 20 mars 1987, dans une allocution. L’analyse de ses deux septennats doit se poursuivre, depuis le choix qu’il fait, dès 1981, de Jacques Delors, européiste sans grandes nuances, au ministère clef de l’économie, à la signature du traité de Maastricht en 1992.
