    One question not raised by the article is: if the observable universe is, in fact, one giant black hole, does that mean our contents are coming from an unobservable universe being absorbed by that black hole? 🤔 This makes my brain hurt just thinking about it.

      Maybe we are viewing it inside out and the expanding phenomenon isn’t driven by expanding towards the outer limits by energy of big bang, but rather being drawn in to an infinitely small center by a black hole.

      This is roughly theoretical physicist Lee Smolin’s fecund universes theory. That on the other side of black holes are other new universes and that our own is the other side of a black hole from a parent universe, etc.

      The thing about a black hole is that the singularity is actually a forward point in time relative to the outside.

      Space and time are the same, so in a space where space is bent so hard that everything falls in, time is likewise bent wildly out of shape.

      So basically what this would imply is that the big bang is the point at which the black hole finally exploded and unleashed the built up matter that all reached finally the singularity point at that instant.
