This week is more of a general discussion about some stationery related topics. Lots of fun, as always.

Slight trigger warning for some medical field related dark humor.

Also Jeremy brags about being a good dad and recaps an international trip.

Is stationery gendered? Can it even BE gendered? Is this very important or a non issue? This week we talk about gender (or lack thereof) as it’s related to our favorite hobby. Just a disclaimer: these are OUR thoughts and experiences about this subject. We are not mental health experts and we do not claim to speak for anyone or group.

We definitely take a light hearted approach to this and try to have some fun with it. Come join the conversation!

This week features not one, but two deep dives. Sam and Jeremy each picked a subject and researched in secret. Neither has any idea what the other is doing, so the reactions are in real time. We had fun with this one and we hope you will too. Come join the conversation!

Welcome to the PURGE! Jeremy has (mostly) cleaned out his stationery collection. Has he come up with some insightful thoughts about it? Yes. Does he still have more stuff than he will ever use? Also yes. Come join the conversation!

This week is all about composition notebooks and traveler’s notebooks! We talk about what we like, what we don’t like, and everything in between. Come join the conversation!

This week we're diving into academia! How do we study? Why take notes? Do we really need every color highlighter? Let's talk mind maps, school supplies, and getting a degree at 40. Come join the conversation!

This week we dive back into the stuff we love, which is...stuff. It's been a few months since volume one of our favorites, so we thought it was time to have volume two. The format is a bit different this time, but more fun, we hope. Come join the conversation!

This week we dust off some old journals and pocket notebooks to see how our writing/journaling style has evolved. Are we better writers? We hope so! What habits have we developed or stopped? What does the future hold for our journaling practices? Come join the conversation!
