This question is in relation to a previous question concerning the 3 terrestial elements currently being used for discussion purposes.
Matter, Dark Matter, Dark Energy. I'm interested in the relationship between the universal expansion and the 'resting place' of captured matter/energy. This has to do (in my tiny brain) with the relationship between the galaxies ability to stay compact instead of spinning off piecemeal into 'space' even though the cosmos is still expanding.

Black holes are not gobbling up everything. They only gobble up nearby stuff, just like stars and planets do. Their gravity does not reach out any farther than the gravity of stars or planets, it is just that the black holes are much SMALLER than stars and planets so that gravity very close if extremely strong.

I'm not sure what you mean by "atom strings," but the reason so as to how and why galaxies remain in their formations is basically do to why everything has formed the way it has in the unvierse--all objects: planets, stars, comets, asteroids, meteors, even black holes--gravity.
