You can also just make one, I just happened to buy one. It has:
-intro pages with film festivals, glossary, and milestones in cinema history
-customizable tabbed sections with watchlists, favorites, watched movies (with places to put your ratings) and TV series (where you can write reviews and memorable scenes)
-has your own little awards night booklet with party planning pages and a ballots section
-stickers (remember when you were a child and got all kinds of stickers and then you became an adult and now you don't get stickers of any kind? yeah....)

Donβt you want to print out your favorite Pinterest fotos & glue them to a half-used marble notebook from 3rd grade & laminate it with packing tape?

look I like the little moleskine journal or similar as much as the next guy but they absolutely suck to write in. get you a clipboard and put some cool stickers on it and buy some legal pads. they're disposable instead of precious. iterate. throw away pages. use your favorite pens.

Whether you need inspo, are curious about the discourse over the last few decades, want to get into a new hobby or whatever else, you can download open source magazine issues from decades past. They have magazines from as early as the early 1900s too! I have been obsessed with old video games lately so I have been looking at the old club nintendo magazines and it has been so fun. Like look at some of the covers these magazines used to have

There is something about seeing someone be unconscious about something that they really love. The sincerity of it, the way they forget to be quiet if its in public, the way they gesture with their hands more. Its great 10/10 would recommend being passionate about your interests!

This might be a strange solution but it may help: when you see something thats not a garment that you consider beautiful for whatever reason, photograph it and then use your wardrobe to try and capture that energy.
For example, I go on a lot of nature walks and something that happens a lot on my walks is that I'll see a lot of beautiful colours that I often don't see worn together, blends of textures like where the leaves of a tree meet the sky etc and so I try to capture that. Like that's how I realised that I love the colour combination of orange and grey.
To help I may then look through old magazines and cut out images to make scrapbook pages of inspiration, or if I have the influence of a particular era in mind to express the look I may look at stills of films from that decade (that's another way you can use pinterest that's not so algo heavy).
Then you just try stuff on and see how you feel, what you like about your attempts what you don't like etc. Ultimately imo the easiest way to avoid relying on algorithms for fashion inspiration is to take inspiration from things other than clothes and to practice translating the aesthetic principles into garments.
Do you like that one brutalist style building with hedges of wild flowers near the place you work? How do you express it in an outfit. Do you keep looking at the sheen of an apple before you bite into it? What fabrics might have a similar effect?
And then use the clothes that you have to try things and edit/style your looks until you get to things you like wearing.
