I have to give Biden credit for one thing: I feel a **** of a lot less like a pansy driving around in my Prius.

I suffered for 4 long years under trump, having to drop my gaze when a guy in an F250 pulled into the station. Well, no more, sir. I now LINGER at the pump - I take my **** time. And I meet and hold every gaze - proudly.

I'm not cruising the pump, mind you. No one has had to suggest I keep it moving or anything. Nothing creepy. I'm just saying, under Trump, I kept my eyes on my shoes and my moves extremely efficient - I wanted to get in and out without having to face people driving cis-gendered, adult-sized cars. And now, there's a bit of insouciance in my gait, perhaps a little Barney Fife panache in the way I two-finger-flick my credit card out of my billfold and into the pump slot. And people accept it. They take it, and they don't show any hate or dirision. It's a new **** day, thanks to Joseph Milhouse Biden. 

I had a couple of kids in a Super Duty with after-market stacks pass me a few days ago, and they didn't even roll smoke on me. They actully gave me a respectful country lane finger-point thing, and I tipped an imginary hat back at them - mutual respect. Long wished for, and finally realized, thank you Joseph Milhouse Biden. 

Mutual **** respect.

Or possibly, they didn't think rolling smoke was worth it, at the price of deisel. But I prefer the Redemption Narrative.
