Big thank you to SYLVIA YOGA for sponsoring the month of August in our 2025 Calendar. Photo G Corcoran #supportlocal https://www.sylviayoga.com/

Can I have a little share please?

After 6 years of free work I finally opened up a donation page where people can support Lokjo.

https://www.lokjo.com/donate/

Lokjo aims to be the first European replacement for googlemaps, while supporting local shops (who can really use an extra now)

In order to grow bigger I need to start working on it, and donations would be a great help.

Thanks, and more to come!

This was in the latest bookshop.org newsletter:

"Where You Shop Matters
Amazon doesn’t care about books. They don’t care about maintaining a healthy literary ecosystem where new voices are discovered and important ideas are shared. They don’t care about sponsoring your local little league team or hosting a summer reading challenge designed to keep children learning. They want you to purchase things (so. many. things.) and they don’t care when you return it and it becomes trash.

Independent bookstores aren’t just bookstores. They are pillars of their communities and supporting them means supporting all of the incredible work they do beyond selling books.

They’re invaluable. Amazon is not."

Amen to all of this. If you have an Amazon account, end it, and support your local independent book shop instead.

#supportlocal #fuckamazon

Before you buy on amazon, check if the product-company has their own website and order it there.

This way the shop gets the full price, and corporations have less investment.

Have a great weekend you all.

A massive thank you to the amazing team at Hibernacle, and especially to Úna Molloy and Maeve Langford-Smith, for including us in such a spectacular celebration. Last night at Orlagh House was nothing short of magical—a visual feast and an unforgettable gathering of some of Ireland’s most talented musicians. Grateful to be part of it!
