In order to achieve more success please invite progressive Black and Brown people who are tired of the systemic and institutional racism and want to be part of doing something about it. We definitely need a new chapter in our lives, it's time now for POC to start demanding equal economic rights and parity. The wealth gap is growing and has gone on too long and needs to be closed. Reparations need to be paid by establishing a Black and Brown controlled Central Liquidity Facility to ensure that Black and Brown people have the ability and resources to jump-start our road to catch up. Without this Facility we are just treading water -- remaining trapped in an underclass. The 1fund CLF GoFundMe page has a draft mission program that needs seed funding to develop the infrastructure needed for implementing this critically necessary recovery program. Please visit the fund raiser donate if you can and/or join the new forming private group "Combating Systemic Endemic Economic Financial and Intuitional Racism system (SEEFIRs), to stay informed or contribute ideas and suggestions. Elections are coming up soon, we need to realize the value of our votes. We cannot be sheep following either party blindly. We have -- and we must collectively use our voting power! In many current elections Black and Brown people are the deciding votes. How long are we going to continue to suffer from the hundreds of years of classic "PTSD" and "Stockholm Syndrome"? MLK and our other civil rights leaders had come to this conclusion philosophically. The Government and the White power structure won’t voluntarily do this for us – so how log do we wait?  “We have to do for self” as Malcolm X has said. The situation is dire and only getting worse, like a cancer afflicting us. We MUST START DOING SOMETHING NOW! https://gofund.me/ea76b49b https://lnkd.in/ecBkcj7m

As a Canadian living with disabilities, I have to say these are dark scary times indeed. Not since Nazi Germany's Aktion T4 has a Western nation contributed directly to the excess deaths of its own citizens solely on the basis of illness, disability and age. In 2022 in the midst of a healthcare crisis brought on by intentional underfunding and political attrition, Canadian doctors euthanized 13,500 Canadian citizens. --------------------------------- Anti-Ableism/Disability Rights #accessibilityforall #accessibilitymatters #accesibledesign #disabilityawareness #disabilityadvocacy #disabilityinclusion #disabilityrights #endableism #inclusionmatters Trauma Awareness #brainhealthmatters #generationaltrauma #survivorstories #trauma #traumaawareness #traumainformed #traumainformedcare #traumarecovery

Many of ya'll are celebrating the demise of QuickBooks Pro/Premier a bit too soon. Your clients using desktop now are not going to suddenly move to QBO or elsewhere if they haven't by now. Unless Intuit inserts a kill switch in older versions, those clients milking 2021 and prior are not going away. Intuit announced that they will stop SELLING Pro/Premier on 7/31/24. Current customers can renew. They did not announce when they will stop supporting Pro/Premier completely. Since Intuit loves to keep customers and accountants in the dark and unable to plan, speculation on a final end date is all over the place. The EULA states they can drop it any time, even in the middle of a subscription period, which itself is not defined. Is it 12 months from the date of purchase or payment? Is it three years after its release in May, which is when they currently sunset and force upgrading the file? If you make a payment in July, I assume they will not drop it before July 2025. They are not stopping subscriptions, so Intuit could support it until 2027! Will they release a 2025 in Sept '24? I can't imagine any feature upgrades. I say they will not. If they do continue, they will make another huge price increase and gain another year of subscriptions. Clients look to us, and we have no way of knowing. Cruel! #quickbooks #intuit

Sure, there are definitely days when I definitely miss more ports. But I see this as an evolution of simplicity 💡 All systems, whether they are virtual, physical or structure, get better and less prone to errors by subtraction. Also, reduction of stuff also means addition of space. Space frees us up, allows new things to be possible while also keeping things simple and aligned to original intention. It's a design (and life) philosophy to live by. Sophistication through simplicity. Less is more. 🖖
