Is that Mark Wahlberg? Thanks for your sacrifices. If they could see what we've accomplished...

I've been spahghettified before but not by a black hole in space. Magic mushrooms and led zeppelin opened a wormhole in my basement. Robert Plant's voice weaved out of the speaker like a viper and settled on the floor. My silk robe gripped me tighter as I struggled to remove it. It fell ever so gently and slowly slid across the floor into the hole and I stretched inside along with it. I awoke in the ER with 6 men holding me down. Ankles. Sides. Arms. Pressed into the bed. I fought until I could not and then I cried as they injected my arm. I fell asleep again. I woke up on a dirt road and walked a mile in the dark home. I'm a traveler of both time and space.

In my time of dieing was the trigger

Thanks for sharing. I watched it live as a 7th grader during lunch recess. It affected me greatly.

Thank you for your service and your poem. I also think of the Challenger crew a lot. I remember watching it in school. I always loved the space program. I will take this opportunity to remember the crew of Columbia and Apollo 1. To boldy go.

Well, no. What they're saying is the exact opposite of that. Once we lose this place, we will yearn for it. It will forever be the only place we truly call home; our cradle. We're in the process of changing it irreversibly. The greatest tragedy of human existence is never knowing, and appreciating, what we have until it is gone.

Unless we find a traversable wormhole near earth that leads near a black hole, there aren’t any close enough for someone to get sucked in. The closest black hole we know of is 1600 light years away.

Black holes will have all evaporated.

We'll all just be part of the grim universe that's left: silent, cold, dark, empty (except for the occasional rather surprised Boltmann's heads), for eternity...

we will be long gone before it has any effect

So it was spinner faster a decade ago…will it be even slower a decade from now? Would that be significant in anyway? People are worried about global warming because they feel the effects won’t be there until we’re all dead anyway but this shit seems a little more short on the time window.
