Can I recommend fixing one tiny broken thing in these trying times?

I have fixed a tiny broken thing and the impact on my sense of general well being is honestly embarrassing.

Our flat is full of tiny broken things because everything in it is old and we don't like to nag our landlords too much because we're scared of them putting up the rent! Or deciding to sell!

So our flat is full of tiny broken things and most of them we really can't do much about as renters and as broke people. But one of the tiny things that has been bothering us for months is now fixed! Because I decided to fix it and I ordered the (very cheap) replacement bit I needed and we put it up and honestly, I feel so much better now.

I realise this is silly. But I also think it's important. I don't want to draw everything back to the fascism, boss, but one of the most powerful tools of fascism is how effectively it makes you feel powerless. And while fixing the shower (which is what I fixed, go me) isn't going to strip power from Trump or dismantle the Heritage foundation or inspire a leadership coup against Keir Starmer or deliver aid to Gaza or Sudan it has reminded me that I am actually capable of a non-zero amount of things.
