These mfers are like glitches in reality. Even trying to wrap my head around wtf they are freaks me out. How the hell can there be a thing in this universe that has infinite density? That doesn't even make sense.

Ugh

    I dunno, the idea of a black hole doesn't seem too frightening to me from what I understand.

    If the sun was replaced by a black hole of the same mass as the sun, the earth's orbit would remain the same, right? Aside from the change in temperature/electromagnetism, that is.

    It's hard to understand and their gravity fuck with our understanding of physics, but there were things on earth that once were unknown and scary.

    I don't want to be in a room with a black hole, but I think they're remote enough that we don't have to worry about them in our lifetimes.

    But there's something about the existential dread that comes from feeling so small and powerless in our growing understanding of the universe.
