Yep, they don't care about us....But your hair is amazing!
So 2 more weeks I assume 
Does anyone have any insight on how the RSS feed for SCOTUS dockets are updated? I've been getting hits in my RSS feed like crazy from the Bruen docket the last few weeks despite no obvious changes to what's publicly viewable online.
My hopes and dreams hat wants to believe it is reflective of activity on writing the opinion itself, but I have no proof.

There have not been any changes on the docket. https://www.supremecourt.gov/docket/docketfiles/html/public/20-843.html
The only thing I can think of is that the parties names/addresses/counsel of record changed.
I'm surprised so many here believe the opinion is imminent as opposed to the last days of the term.

They have a big docket this year. 8 major cases. Dobbs, OSHA, EPA, NY Guns, a couple of religion cases.
There is 1 Oct case left, and 3 Nov cases left. They are behind pace issuing opinions this year. Odds favor NY Guns coming out in soon so they can clear their plate for Dobbs, EPA,...
Keep in mind, Heller and McDonald were both argued in March and issued in June. There is no barrier to issuing an opinion in 3 months.
I was very surprised how long it took Kavanaugh to write his opinion from Oct. The opinion was extremely short yet took forever. Why did it take so long? In the back of my mind I am thinking he is writing some other big lengthy opinion. Could be NY Guns.

Or, being a junior associate Justice, maybe he just didn't want to eff it up - he needed to be vigilant and make sure it was on solid footing and would stand up to scrutiny, not only now, but for the future as well.

Calculating odds is not very accurate because each case depends on factors only applicable to that particular case.
While the average time between oral argument and opinion issuance last term was about 104 days, the standard deviation was about 56 days. Four of the cases took about 220 days to resolve.
It has been 155 days so even speaking of odds, 25% of their cases took longer than 155 days to resolve last year.
The length of the opinion is not what drives the timeframe. There are myriad factors that affect the time it takes to deliver an opinion.

Barrett and Gorsuch write much faster, so I doubt it. Gorsuch has already written his 2 from November. Also, Kavanaugh was on the DC Circuit. I think he knows how to do it.
Two possibilities in my mind, he has a big opinion in the wings (a lot of people predict he is writing NY Guns. I am coming around to that idea) or he is responsible for one or both of the Per Curiam opinions. PC opinions are not signed, but someone has to write them.
It was funnier when Han Solo said it.

When they pummel the sense of humor out of you in 1L and turn you into a mindless automaton, does it hurt?
I also said this (three times I think)
