When Two Black Holes Start Dating

In our latest installment of the Love and the Law of Physics series, The Cynical Romantic explores the most dramatic relationship in existence: two supermassive black holes caught in a billion-year death spiral.

It’s science with a side of sarcasm, relativity with emotional baggage. Whether you’re here for gravitational waves or relationship metaphors, buckle up. This is the only blog where Einstein meets existential dread — and everyone leaves a little warped.
