Thanks for your efforts. It's extremely hard to imagine things when it comes to these sizes though.

The vastness of space is really mind-blowing stuff. I can barely grasp the sheer scale of the Earth and the Moon, and comparisons of the sun to a star like VY Canis Majoris.




And then of course there's the density of it all, like the tiny patch of the sky magnified a ton to find this:



The Universe is really damn amazing.

there's also a theory that the universe could be finite instead of infinite, but from here to the limits of this universe there's a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong way, if its true

Anyone not subscribed to Youtube channels like Vsauce and minutephysics at this point should be ashamed of themselves.

I watch Vsauce's videos every now and then but I haven't subscribed to some of my favourite people, even.

Could that be infamous hubble deep field? It is absolutely amazing photo and some of the galaxies in it are actually so far away that the light from them reaching us now is ancient, millions of years old so in a way we can see the past in them. Same applies to large gas formation called pillars of creation (http://www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblog/20 ... s-ago.html)
In addition to what silmarilen said, laws of physics completely break down as we know them when it comes to black holes (just fyi) as nothing infinite is supposed to exist in nature but they in fact cause space-time to curve infinitely.
Googolplex is another fascinating subject, to think it would be unlikely that another you exactly as you are wouldn't exist. There is an estimation that all the protons in existence are significantly less than one googolplex.

Today, I thought I saw a woman cosplaying as Hatsune Miku out of the corner of my eye. Turns out she was actually just wearing a teal hijab.

Same goes to me. I still haven't subscribed Vsauce, but I watch his videos, and I really like his videos as well.

That's...really counter productive.

The Hubble eXtreme deep field, to be precise!

There has been a recent study that suggests that event horizons may not actually exist, so perhaps the infinite space-time curvature isn't real either.

Nvm, dogs aren't just better than cats, they're superior to cats. I fucking hate cats right now.
Hiding under my bed, and when I try to get the cat out of my room, it fucking attacks me. Now I'm bleeding. Little fucker thinks he's big.
Fucking cats.

Throw that cat SO HARD. Make sure it doesn't hit anything tho.

^the fuck is wrong with you

cats are the best, your problem is the "I try to get the cat out of my room" part

It was 6 am. I spent 1 hour trying to get the cat out of my room.
Now, I wouldn't mind the cat being in my room if there was a place for the cat to take a dump, but there wasn't, so the cat had to get outta my room.

-edit-
I got the cat out by baiting her with some food it likes.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is event horizon not the zone where absolutely nothing can anymore resist the gravity? How is it possible it could not exist, as there would have to be a point where not even light can not escape, just past the photon sphere?

This is probably a very ignorant thought to have, but why would anybody kill themselves life is such wonderful privilege to have
I wouldn't say life is a privilege to begin with. It's a gift. But even gifts can be toxic. Suicide nearly always (I'm assuming this) occurs through depression, and a depression is like a reverse nightmare. You don't fall asleep and enter a nightmare, you wake up in one. Suicide will always be a viable option in the minds of those who live like that. When the heat of your mental state pushes you to the edge, the fear of falling will be less grave than the fear of the flames in your back.
Not meaning to disrespect people who've died through suicide, I have had close people go down that path myself. These people have had terrible conditions not only at home but socially as well. Putting myself in their shoes would probably change my current position towards suicide.
However, when it comes to reasons like lets say parents scolding you by removing your internet momentarily, getting a bad grade, breaking up etc I really can't understand that.

Your life is not ruined. You're just scared of change (possibly for the better since you usually learn from mistakes you make or unfortunate things that occur).
I do realize this want for suicide is most likely a cry for attention at this stage, but those cries shouldn't go unnoticed anyway. Who knows how a kid who've lived online his entire life would react if suddenly his whole world stop spinning for him.

I do think the approach to cut something off without compromise is stupid. Teens are capable of reasoning as long as you treat them respectfully, which lots of parents overlook since they 'pay the bills' and you must obay them.

tl;dw of the above video is Event Horizons existed when only General Relativity was applied but now maybe not so much when Quantum Mechanics are thrown in.

And so what was defined as a Black Hole and it's Event Horizon can't exist anymore and needs to be redefined.

That was interesting, though paradoxical and weird. thanks guys

Maybe silmarilen has doraphobia. I have mild anxiety in narrow places, but I can't understand irrational phobias on personal level.

nah i dont, i love cats and playing with them.
i think it's the thought of having a living thing moving in my hands/arms that scares me

you're afraid of monsters, then

I ate a bit more chocolate than I would have liked today. I've also been troubled by thoughts of suicide these last few months as my life has had very little meaning these last few years.
Trash Boat
suicide is the last thing anyone should do. I'm pretty sure you have a lot of options before that one
