Habeas cases are meant to be resolved quickly because a person’s liberty is at stake. But in parts of Mississippi and Louisiana, judges have typically taken 3 months or more to resolve them. Meanwhile, in Minnesota, the median time to close a case has been 11 days.
A map showing how long habeas cases take to close, by district. Gray dots throughout represent immigration detention facilities. Regions are shaded lighter purple if they have fewer habeas cases and darker purple if they have more cases. Several pieces of text accompany arrows pointing to locations on the map. They read: 1) In Minnesota, where more than 1,500 habeas petitions have been filed since January 2025, cases have closed in a median of just 12 days. 2) In Oklahoma's Western District, habeas cases take a median of 63 days. 3) Over 2,600 petitions have been filed in Louisiana, which has many ICE detention centers. Cases have taken a median of 89 days to close. 4) Cases have taken a median of 92 days to close in Mississippi's Southern District, where the Adams County Correctional Center is located. Source: ProPublica analysis of court records, as of Aug. 25, and Deportation Data Project. Districts with fewer than 10 cases closed not shown.

More people need to understand the intersection of car culture, toxic masculinity, and fascism. I'm glad to see @19thnews.org tackling this, especially given the amount of car brained NIMBYism we see from liberals and progressives. The fights against fascism and car dependency are intertwined.

Why do Republicans in Washington often seem so hostile to funding public transit? One key explanation: Transit commuting is just much, much more common in areas that vote Democratic than areas that vote Republican, and it's been true for decades. www.thetransportpolitic.com/databook/pol...

Some US officials have responded to the problem of wooden homes becoming fuel for fires that ignite nearby buildings by calling for more separation between homes. That's a recipe for higher housing & transportation costs. More land/home raises land costs, more separation increases travel distances.

Time Traveler Causes of Death xkcd.com/2976/
A modified XKCD comic titled "TOP CAUSES OF DEATH FOR TIME TRAVELERS BY GEOLOGIC ERA:" features a tall, vertical rectangle representing Earth's timeline from its formation down to the present day. Along the left axis, tick marks indicate time intervals from "EARTH FORMS" at the top down through "4 BILLION YEARS AGO," "3 BILLION YEARS AGO," "2 BILLION YEARS AGO," "1 BILLION YEARS AGO," "500 MILLION YEARS AGO," and ending at "NOW" at the bottom. The vertical column is divided into stacked sections labeling the leading cause of death for each period: beginning at the top with "LAVA," followed by a section for "ASPHYXIATION," a thin band for "METEORS," a large section for "ASPHYXIATION," an even larger block spanning roughly 2.2 billion to 700 million years ago labeled "SLIGHTLY SLOWER ASPHYXIATION," and then smaller bands near the bottom labeled "FREEZING," "STARVING," "EATEN BY FISH," "TRAMPLED," and "EATEN BY MAMMALS." Next to the very bottom sliver representing the present day, an arrow points to the text "HIT BY SUV."
