You just couldn't help yourself, could you?

I thought this was a thread about Miichael Sam and other gay black men.

If interested, PM @Dennis_DeYoung for questions about the gay black dating scene. He has it dialed in.

In all seriousness, the poont of this article is that a new telescope array has observed several supermassive black holes that were previously obscured by dust/gas clouds.

Supermassive black holes are similar to stellar mass black holes (the "regular" kind), and are believed to exist at the center of most large galaxies (including the Milky Way).

The main differences between supermassive and stellar mass black holes are size and formation method. Supermassive black holes are much larger, and it is unknown how they form.

There are several hypotheses on the formation of supermassive black holes, including accretion of stellar matter and merging with other black holes. Meaning, when stars fall into black holes, the hole gets bigger (hi Hope Solo!), AND/OR when two black holes collide, the bigger one eats the smaller one, resulting in a single black hole, larger than either were individually.

Stellar mass (regular) black holes are formed when very large stars collapse at the end of their life in a supernova event. Our own star (the sun) will not become a black hole, but it will engulf the earth, which is a story for another thread.

Tequilla long way to say we will all DIAFF.

In the mean time, does Solo's glory hole present a risk?

I thought this thread was about Regina Rogers.

Down vote.
