Attention, rail commuters. I bring fresh hell.

You see,

It might be the end of Pride Month 2025, but with Thameslink, journey with us with Pride all year round… Our railway is for everyone and we’re proud to celebrate love, diversity and togetherness, with our #ThameslinkTrainbow, of course!

And remember, if you’re gay, everything is about TRANSVESTISM, VAMPING AND GLITTER.

Oh, and for those of you mystified by the chanted number,

Text 61016 if ever something’s not right.

Should you see something untoward during your journey.

No, don’t go. I have more.

Free-For-All Policing The Thrill Of Endless Noise

The Sound Inside Their Heads

June 30, 2025 64 Comments

From happy-clappy Portland – on day 21 of the ongoing intifada:

A Portland resident confronts Antifa for blaring music past midnight at the ongoing ICE facility occupation:

“I’m coming back every night and I’m breaking your sh-t. We the people need sleep. You’re worse than ICE, terrorizing us every night. Go f-ck yourself.” pic.twitter.com/gpDBdPYiuP

Attention, comrades. You will learn to love the explosions, fires, and shouting, the round-the-clock banging of things against other things, and the shrill, unending high-frequency tones, heavily amplified. Because sleep is a luxury of the bourgeoisie.

I paraphrase, of course. Though not, I think, unfairly.

From the replies:

Immediately after the resident complained, Antifa increased their noise disturbance.

Because spite is the sweetest plum.

Immediately after the resident complained, Antifa increased their noise disturbance.

The group has created a makeshift LRAD system, blasting it at the ICE office around 1 am. Federal police responded so a vehicle could exit.

Note: none of this noise is coming from ICE/DHS. pic.twitter.com/O03uagtIi2

Update, via the comments:

Quoting this,

Immediately after the resident complained, Antifa increased their noise disturbance.

Rafi adds, drily,

The little people should know their place.

That would seem to be the implied dynamic. The new and immensely radical pecking order.

And readers with a taste for irony may appreciate the exchange in the first video, around 30 seconds in, during which Generic Antifa Bint says to the disgruntled resident, “Talking to us calmly would be a hell of a lot better.” The same Generic Antifa Bint whose comrades carry megaphones, fireworks and drums, and who spend their evenings torturing local residents, and presumably any pets, with a loudspeaker sound cannon.

Update 2:

For readers intrigued by the lack of law enforcement, Andy Ngo has been querying the inactivity of Portland’s Police Department.

Which is, we learn,

committed to protecting individuals’ rights to express themselves peacefully.

Even, it seems, when those individuals are quite literally disturbing the peace. Such that local residents are being robbed of sleep, night after night, and despite such protests – or, more accurately, fits of sociopathy – violating Portland’s laws on public noise.

Laws that clearly forbid,

Operating or permitting the use or operation of any device designed for sound production or reproduction in such a manner as to cause a noise disturbance; or operating or permitting the operating or use of any such device between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. so as to be plainly audible within any dwelling unit that is not the source of sound.

Such is policing in an age of progress.

Update 3:

Judge says Portland police don’t have to enforce noise rules at 24-hour Antifa ICE protest.

Because of course.

Striving For Diversity

June 25, 2025 104 Comments

And so you must be excluded:

It means they’re holding you responsible for their out-of-control feelings and they’re hoping you’re tolerant and kind enough to let them call you intolerant and unkind.

It’s a pathetic power move from life’s losers meant to turn your own morals against you.

It’s one of the…

— Porkulence (@Porkulence) June 25, 2025

A discussion ensues.

Update, via the comments:

It must be quite strange to inhabit a milieu in which the normal meanings of words are either ignored or inverted. By people who aspire to be professional writers. Communicators of ideas.

Such that safety translates as a compulsory and intensely neurotic following of very narrow ideological fashion.

A social environment in which celebrating diversity means pointedly and gleefully excluding anyone we suspect of possibly have differing opinions on something or other, whether expressed or not, and doing so in ways that, to others, those less progressive, seem petty and weird.

Something along those lines.

Drag Queen Incongruity

June 16, 2025 83 Comments

A possible series:

North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service wants to know what you think of this.

If you want to let them know, details in replies. pic.twitter.com/ytLqqbVH0I

— Gay Not Queer (@Gaynotqueer1) June 14, 2025

According to the North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service:

Being part of Pride helps us show that we’re here for everyone… Representation matters, and we want all members of our communities to know that we’re here for them if they need us.

Lest anyone assume that fire engines don’t turn up to the burning houses of sassy, finger-clicking transvestites, or something.

Curiously, the North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service survey form, inviting the public to express their views on Pride attendance and matters of transvestite outreach, has, with seeming briskness, now been shut down.

Readers may wish to speculate on why that might be.

And when you think Fire and Rescue Service, what you want is a mental image of vamping, squealing drag queens in unfeasible heels and flammable wigs, tottering unsteadily to your rescue while wrestling suggestively with a big hose.
