i'm not sure if physical temporal discontinuity is possible, it doesn't fit with the forwards arrow of time which is in fact the forwards arrow of causality and reason, the basis of mind

the reverse temporal flow also exists, and must exist, but it is the basis of antimatter and it is where we will eventually get all our energy from

i think the thing about reverse time flux is that it is inherently the opposite of structured and logical

i highly recommend reading the book Counterclock World by Phillip K Dick to get some notion of how mangled a reverse time process looks in a narrative, and he was very clever in the way he crafted it, but i don't think it's literally feasible

PKD is really good at exploring the realm of mind though... if you can conceive it, probably it exists, in some way, some where, some time

i don't see the need for time travel, i'd rather just stick to being able to have spatial discontinuity (FTL travel and teleportation) we can already effectively do temporal forward discontinuity by getting closer to the speed of light, or entering a space with extreme high gravity (as depicted in Interstellar) but backwards just has this problem of being contrary to Mind

i think information maybe can move like this, because it has no causal structure to it, but matter does, matter has to come from somewhere, for some reason, this is ... yeah, Einstein said "God does not play dice" what he meant is something also like what Mises indirectly asserted via axiomatic logic - the laws of the universe are inexorable, some things are literally impossible.

but i'd be amused if it was not true, i'm just not gonna spend much time on it because it's contrary to the nature of Mind
