Barcelona’s Superblocks are one of the world’s most influential urban transformations. In a city where cars take 20% of trips but 60% of public space, they offer a radical proposition: what if streets were designed not as conduits for traffic but as extensions of living rooms?🧵
People of all ages and abilities walk, cycle, sit, and socialise along the Carrer Consell de Cent Superblock in Barcelona: a former four-lane arterial road transformed into a pedestrian-friendly corridor lined with shade trees, plants, seating and lighting.

Fox: Why are you here this morning? Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.

"End Times Fascism" is outstanding. At times, it left me enraged at the appalling duplicity and selfishness of the end times fascists who have recently attained far too much power and influence. But it also left me with hope for how these horrific forces can be overcome

Proud to stand with @SBWorkersUnited and join the boycott against Starbucks. Starbucks workers deserve a fair contract — but instead of coming to the bargaining table in good faith, Starbucks has racked up more labor law violations than any company history.

🚨 BREAKTHROUGH: Scientists at the University of Nottingham have developed a new enamel-repairing gel that starts restoring teeth in just 2 WEEKS. This could replace fillings and change dental treatment worldwide, with use expected around late 2026–2027. Here is how it works and when you can get it.🧵
Image from SARS‑CoV‑2 (COVID-19) (@COVID19_disease)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The claimed breakthrough is based on lab experiments with extracted human teeth showing thin mineral growth over 2 weeks in vitro. No human trial results exist; a small pilot by the spin-off began in July 2026 with none published. nature.com/articles/s4146… clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07730… medicaldaily.com/enamel-regrowt… nottingham.ac.uk/news/new-gel-r…

The public is very anti-AI. One big disaster - a Hindenberg moment - could lead to widespread restrictions on AI. thedispatch.com/article/arti…
