Am I the only one thinking this liiks like AI slop? The text on the box is super inconsistent
Thank you for sharing.
I live well but struggle a lot to find job and I'm in an almost constant fear of losing everything.
It does feel like that sometimes! It's very sad that recruiting has lost the human touch. They seem to be blinded by years of experiences and checking boxes when they should recruit by personality, because a person can always learn. But you can't really do much about a shitty personality, exception if you see that spark underneath it all. Some people just needs a real chance and to be believed in.
A lot of recruiters don't even want the cover letter anymore, some have a few questions and some only go by the CV.
That's a great use!
If it truly helps you, I think that might be enough for me. I say truly because you need to use an AI with responsibility to not ruin yourself. Like, don't let it think for you. Don't trust everything it says.
I use it a lot when applying for jobs, something I've struggled with on and off for 12 years. I suck and writing the cover letter and CV. It takes me 2-3 days to update a cover letter for a job because it takes so much energy. With AI that is down to 1-2 days.
It's also great for explaning things in other words of if you're trying to look up something that's hard to search for, I don't have any examples tho.
I used to use it to help me formulate scentences since english isn't my first language. Now I instead use Kagi Translate.

“gee Ms. A Bad Idea, how did you get so smart at languages, I keep trying but it never sticks”
The trick to actually really for real learning a language when you’re not immersed in it as the living language of your everyday life is to WRITE IT DOWN
ON PAPER. WITH YOUR HANDS
USE A BETTER PEN, THOSE CHEAP BALLPOINTS WILL INJURE YOU
JUST COPY A WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE IF THAT’S ALL YOU HAVE, IT WILL HELP
Thank you! I'll check them out \o/
I've started recently too. Slow and steady. But if this is true, I need to hurry tf up. It's sad we (in Sweden) practically HAVE to have a google account since we use an app called BankID for everything with banking and identifying ourself with the government. So no google account ≈ no id
You can get the BankID for your bc but only for windows and I don't have a windows pc anymore.
Please reply to this dorumon
If it's a ban from the whole google echo-system that is fucked up. I sadly still have a lot of important stuff linked to my google account.
Please share a link to your peertube channel :)
I don't even know what meme means anymore
I'm currently trying out the PARA note organisation method and it seems really nice. I have it on my digital notes and now working it in on my analog ones. Not that I have alot of analog notes yet.. Haha the image is of some projects I've written down
PARA has 4 main categories:
They are sorted by how actionable they are! Most actionable at top. Neat huh?
Projects are things you are activly working on, like a sewing project or building a green house for your garden.
Areas can be things like personal health, info about your house, things that needs to be kept track of. That greenhouse project can trinkle down here when finished. This contains more "active" info.
Resources are more information gathering. So you don't have to add it to all projects. This contains more "passive" info.
Archive is where you put things you don't have use for anymore but don't want to throw away. Maybe you want look to back or use it at another time in your life?
I created a alphabet inspired by staveless/short-hand runes, also known as Hälsinge Runes.
They look like this:
I have a plan for my future wallet and notebook combo! This is my fairly precise sketch. See images below.
I'll give it a Z fold with wallet on one side and notebook on the other.
The notebook part will have holes in the middle at the top and bottom where I'll attatch two elastics for two small notebooks. I might make them into one tho.
The wallet part will have a zipper all around and for the inside pockets I'll use fabric to reduce weight and thickness. The curves on the paper represent pockets so I'll have two on each side. I'm going to attatch them with a W shape so that I get a proper pocket in the middle.
I'm not sure what to do about the fact that leather has a front and back tho. I'd prefer to not have two layers to reduce thickness and weight.
I hope this makes sense and is possible
Finally, the card-holder! Probably made with a variation on saddle stitch where I sewed first one side, then the other. Sewn with cotton yarn, not very elegant haha. It can hold 4 cards comfortably on each side.
And this is how it compares to the notebook holder I've shown before
I heard that you can make a finger protector in leather to use when sewing and that they work really great, so of course I had to try it. They DO work great.
I used a holepuncher intended for fabric to create the holes that i sewed in, with thin-ish yarn.
It's not super pretty, but it works!
Hellu!
A while back I made this leather cover to fit a couple of A7 notebooks, also knows as travelers journal. It's made from scrap-leather, I did no sewing, the piece on the flap is glued on and the curved edge was from before. I just removed the stitches to fit the bottom leather under the flap on the inside.. I realize this barely fit as a leather craft, I hope it's okay anyway!
Hellu!
A while back I made myself a tiny travelers journal from scrap leather, elastic sewing thread and glue! It's roughly the size of a card-holder or small wallet. It's not perfect, but it's mine :) When I bring it out, I usually have one of those small IKEA pens with it!
It has the size of A7 but because I decided to have loose pages I mostly use them as A6. Neat huh?
I have two sections, one more private and one less private.
What's yours smallest notebook?
I made a little sketch of an dog daisy. In sweden we call them "prästkrage", directly translated it means prieast collar 😊
Ohai! Welcome everyone to the Pen & Paper community! I am the one who created this community.
I'm 30, live in Sweden and I've recently started to use pen and paper more, which is part of me starting this community. I've liked the idea of having neat notebooks for a looong time but never truly had a reason more than "just because" so I never got started despite getting multiple filofaxes, even a handmade one (in pictures here), calendar inserts and other fancy stuff.
Oh well. I used to love computers and technology (still do tbh) but I hate what it's becoming with all the surveillance, selling our data, what AI is doing, social media, screen addiction and just enshittification everywhere. SO I'm moving away, slow and steady.
So, I mostly use my handmade A5 ringbound planner/notebook a la filofax style. I started with what I call a 'rolling todo list', something I learned when working as an electrician at an iron industry. So, you have a regular list of todos, as they get done you draw a line over and add new todo items at the bottom.
When you get to the bottom of the page and need to add a new todo, you simply write all the ones you haven't done yet on the new page.
I like to give those a squiggly line on the previous page, but this is not necessary.
I also want to practice my writing-skill, my spelling has become terrible (I don't even use autocorrect) and I used to love writing as a teen, Swedish was always my strongest topic in school. So, I decided to start writing down my dreams as an ease-in to writing. I just jot down the date and start writing.
I also have a section for mixed notes that is honestly just whatever I feel like. Both important notes, creative stuff, scribbles, ideas, notes from a call etc. Everything. This section is a part of keeping it simple. I don't see a clear category for these things.. yet!
For last, I have some maps, a page for cards and a note from those who made the filofax-styled notebook/planner.
The thing I like the most with writing by hand is the freedom, I can write however I like, whatever direction, add a little sketch. The only limitation is my imagination! And also all the benefits of using something physical, better memory, having a sense of where things are etc.
I plan on adding a section for reading-notes as the book I'm currently reading makes me write a lot of notes in it. So I think after finishing it I'll go over it all again and jot in down in my note-book.
Well, that's all from me for this time. So long, and thanks for all the fish!

ooh okay! Also, I noticed it might be some lightning/shimmering effect making it look really odd.
