Old buildings like a church on the windswept seaside, a place just beside the edge of empire where everything may be about to unravel?
Well there's your problem chief, you got a 'm' class small planetoid sized black hole in your carburetor.
Yeah, that's how the ghosts get in
This seems like one of those things that could give me anxiety if I think about it too much.
THE PALE!!!! 
THE PALE IS REAL!!!!!!!!!!!
About to get a degree in Entroponetics
SCP ahh phenomenon
Do we think dark matter / energy are real? Or are our models just way off?
Multiple independent observations lead to very solid evidence that dark matter exists. It’s a question of what comprises dark matter.
I personally like the solution of primordial black holes. Recent evidence from LIGO/Virgo and the Webb telescope are strengthening the possibility that most if not all dark matter is PBH.
This is a totally separate consideration from dark energy, though, just to be clear
My investigation of dialectics in science has led me to understand that the whole big bang thing is likely wrong and that space-time curvature as described was basically a thought experiment. It led me to then believe that black holes don't have singularities and don't exist below masses of around 3 solar masses. This is all supported by evidence, but I'd rather discuss this in DMs if you wanna know more. Stuff like the precession of mercury, the shape of spiral galaxy arms and dark matter/energy can be explained by fluctuations in the quantum field and electro magnetism in spinning stars, which as far as I know was kind of neglected in galaxy modeling since thoses effects are poorly understood.
Oh great, I get all the problems of a Doctor Who companion with none of the benefits. There's a primordial black hole in my building and I don't even get to visit a Celtic spa with weirdly modern morals. This sucks!
Let loose the Great Old Ones and free me from the hell that is living
This is more like the very tiny Old Ones
Small black holes are so pog, hope they are real 
So my brain can be Swiss cheese cause of these right
(If you’re worried about a primordial black hole passing through you, don’t be. The study concluded it would not be fatal.)
PBHs would have much less mass than the stellar black holes later formed by dying stars, but they would still be extremely dense, like the mass of a mountain compacted into an area the size of an atom.
Yeah but I doubt it'd be considered organic and healthy to have the matter of a mountain compressed to .1 nm and slicing through your brain at 4x the speed of sound. Sounds like a possible stroke or aneurysm at least. Really low possibility of it happening though
It's not a very big hole, and most bits of your brain have some level of redundancy built in.
We're making it to Rodianov's Trench with this one

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.
-
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
-
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
-
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.
-
Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.
-
Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.
-
Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.
-
American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
-
Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.
