Imagine my hangxiety today!” she commented on an Instagram post by Gay Sydney News.Some social media users had tongue and cheek reactions to the infamous dancer.“It’s like seeing Jesus walk on water,” wrote Instagram user London Briidge.Others were more supportive.“She was a great sport! I’d have given her gold last night!,” wrote Instagram user Keira Billie, in reference to her dismal Olympics routine in which she failed to score a single point.Raygun announced she was retiring after the “really upsetting” backlash she faced following her Paris performance, only to turn back around and say she is “never going to stop.”“I’m still going to be part of community jams, or I’d like to go to community jams and still and still dance and still break,” she said back in November.It appears that’s what she did, or at least attempted to, this week.
