Idealism without illusions. Solarpunk. Stablecoins are cool. Urbanist. Probably either coding, gardening, or arguing about affordable housing at a public meeting somewhere.

Hi, I'm Joseph. I like native flowers, Solarpunk vibes, stablecoins, abundant and affordable housing, taking the bus, brussel sprouts, and long bike rides.

Let's plant some trees or paint an illegal bike lane together.

If you live in Virginia’s 11th district and haven’t yet voted for @jameswalkinshaw.bsky.social - go to your regular polling place and vote today

Day 1 of posting a new meme every day until @beyer.house.gov retires, instead of clinging to power.

Thinking about going all in on anti-gerontocracy

Despite being 76 years old at the time of the election, @beyer.house.gov has already filed to run for re-election in 2026!

Don, you are becoming a liability. Please retire, secure your legacy, and make space for new leaders to rise up.

The gerontocracy must stop clinging to power!

No longer giving citizenship (despite promises) to people who serve in the military, like my grandfather was able to get after fighting Nazi's on the beaches of Normandy.

Meanwhile, it's being sold for $5m.

I'm starting a group to ask Congressional leaders over 70 to retire and help them lift up younger local leaders in their districts. Non-partisan.

Starting with VA 8.

DM me to join.

The tax bill would have failed if Gerry Connelly had stepped down after learning he was dying from cancer. Instead, no one in his seat votes and horrible GOP bills continue to pass.

The gerontocracy is a liability for Dems. Ego = defeat.

@beyer.house.gov please retire.

BTW this would have failed if Gerry Connolly had been alive to vote no.

These super old democrats clutching on to power even as they are dying is costing their legacy everything.

Fools.

The Senate votes 100-0 on no taxes on tips.

It should completely put the bed the idea that Democrats woupdnt vote for something good to prevent trump from getting a win.

Only GOP does that.

The movie Hot Fuzz is a cautionary tale about how NIMBYs will destroy the cities & towns they claim to want to protect unless the next generation unites to fight for what we all know is right.

Is there a feed for Arlington or Nova urbanists?

I cannot say this enough but please shut the fuck up about Hillary Clinton, you're not doing yourself any favors by drawing comparisons.

What the heck is wrong with these people? Such a waste of energy for everyone. We should primary Don Beyer

The Neighborhood Barbershop in Falls Church has free "fades for feds" for laid off federal workers.

Incredible idea

🚨 BREAKING: Court filings show FBI ordered mega banks to freeze accounts of environmental grant recipients: Habitat for Humanity, Colorado Clean Energy Fund, DC Green Bank, many more.

The modern banking system can and will be WEAPONIZED against anyone on political whims.

Not to brag too hard but I'm ranked #5 in the world at an extremely niche online board game none of you have ever heard of which is played by just a few thousand people globally.
