Don't know if it was life stress (both general and specific-to-me) related that made me react to a normal procedure that is not all-that-painful like that, but it sure felt like it.

Had a very routine, usually no stress medical procedure in a doctor's office this morning (about an hour after opinions were released) and ended up randomly almost passing out. Tunnel vision, hearing loss, dizziness, sweating, and nausea. It eventually passed but it was wild.

FWIW I think they hold Trump is not immune, over a blistering dissent from Alito. But the point is made by postponing the trial until after the election. Netchoice could be a darkhorse for the batshit crazy opinion.
