A speed boat carrying three people suddenly exploded and caught fire on Moses Lake in Washington state. This took place just as they were circling and allegedly harassing another boat for flying LGBTQ+ Pride flags.

One of the people in the flag-flying boat, a self described trans and queer healthcare professional, managed to catch the whole thing on video.

They've aptly called the moment a case of instant karma.

They posted photos and videos of the incident to Twitter and TikTok, where the content went viral. As the caption on their Twitter post hammered home, the boat explosion came right on cue.

Everyone onboard the exploding vessel was unharmed, but their boat appeared to be a total loss.

In addition to the photos, they also posted a pair of TikTok videos documenting the chaos.

Despite all the anti-lgbtq slurs and bullying, the people on board the boat with the Pride flags immediately dropped everything to help their harassers.

We safely got them out of the water immediately. We were nicer than they were. #pride #lgbtq #boat #Fail #Karma #Gay #hate #sorrynotsorry

People who came across the TikTok video doubted whether they would have been so willing to help people who spewed so much hate just moments before.

They posted a second video documenting their efforts to retrieve the people from the water.

TikTokers found poetic justice in the incident.

Coming just as Pride Month is beginning, the event very likely will not be the first time LGBTQ+ people are harassed for celebrating their lives, identities, equality and safety.

But perhaps the universe has stepped in to offer a little protection this year.

HOA Sparks Debate After Sending Letter Telling People Not To Hand Out Full-Size Candy Bars On Halloween

Within our communities, it's important to make everyone feel welcome and included, and sometimes that means making changes so that everyone can afford to be included. But sometimes changes are made simply because someone with the power to change it doesn't want to do something.

The question is whether changes are being made for inclusivity or convenience.

Fired TikToker Shares Bonkers Behind-The-Scene Stories About What It Was Like Working At Walmart

Whether or not we've ever worked there, we've all heard horror stories and seen internet memes about "people at Walmart" and the weird things that often happen within the oversized chain convenience store.

TikToker Kae, or @lolxdlolxdlolxd23455 on the platform, worked at Walmart for more than six months and ultimately was fired because he'd accidentally logged his PTO time incorrectly and also requested multiple days off,—but he'd intended to quit anyway given his unpleasant time working there.
