The CFPB is one of the most staunch financial watchdogs for the American people.

The agency has returned at least $20B to the victims of financial fraud and abuse since 2011.

It's no longer protecting consumers now...BECAUSE THIS REGIME DOESN'T WANT IT TO!

New in PN: Scenes from Portland's imaginary insurrection

"I’ve been taking images that are nowhere near this one conflict driveway — ones of puppies & kids playing, & families having picnics — b/c the idea that Portland is burned down & a war zone is just preposterous" — @timdickinson.bsky.social

Scenes from Portland's imaginary insurrection

"It would be funny if it wasn’t so f**king serious," Tim Dickinson says.

So today’s equivalent would be more like having a “classic hits” station touching on 1990-2000 and focusing on 2000-2015.

So I got a rather...unpleasant suprise. I went on my tablet to FM Radio to listen to 103.9 that was our classic hits station...it ended up going away for AC. We now have 3 AC stations in my area. Just as we have 3 country stations in my area.

I don't recognize a single thing on many of the stations, like I understand this is "K102 Country Hits" but doesn't sound like any of the music I've heard from the past 100 years, then I get to a gospel ch, it sounds like r&b, but the lyrics betray that quickly! Nirvana on the Classic Rock station!?

Or on classic country stations I prefer it as dunn and brooks, which is quite like a law firm...

Infuriating every listener of my classic hits radio station by insisting on referring to the artist duo as “Oates and Hall”

Find it surreal that Bring Me to Life from Evanescence is airing on 101.1 WCBS FM, which is generally a classic hits station. Another reminder that the 2000s was 20 years ago

Old-fashioned FM radio preset stations (Philadelphia) in my car:

90.1 - classical during day/jazz at night
90.9 - NPR
93.3 - rock
95.7 - "Ben" ("playing anything we feel like" - only station that plays music when I get off of work, 7:30 AM)
98.1 - '70s, '80s, '90s "classic" hits
104.5 - alt rock
