Please send tips, corrections, additions, and constructive criticism.
Unconstructive criticism is okay too, but please strive for originality. Avoid responses that I and other heretics have already heard:
Men hate her.
Young people hate her.
Straight people hate her.
Sub-standard athletes hate her.
Why?
Because she prevailed.
Old lesbians aren’t supposed to be role models.
That would be too . . . . weird.
Congratulations Diana.

I Truly believe in Karna . . . The universe took care of Diana as she used her positivity within . . The others who bring this negative energy will never understand . . .
