Yep, we’re all gonna die when that thing gobbles us… In a few millions of years.

Based on our current understanding and their close proximity to each other in the early universe, most of them would have likely merged and many/most may be now at a size where it would take a google years to evaporate. The extremely small ones that did not merge may have already evaporated.

There’s one right behind us, isn’t there?
There’s a mod joke in there somewhere.
The sky…it’s fulla holes.
