Luckily, as far as we understand things, there's no way to go back in time (only less fast to the future, which isn't the same). For one thing, because there's no backup mechanism for reality to jump back to.

Timelines are fiction. They hurt some fundamental principles of how the universe works. Time isn't like a river or a line at all; better start thinking of time like the air around you: it's just there, can be formed, affects things but there can't be less than none.

Oh sure, but it's fun to think about how time travel could maybe work if it was a thing.

My bad. My fun-detector is sleep deprived. Maybe i should work a bit instead of commenting.

Aww, it's ok. And it's good to point out that time travel to the past very likely isn't a thing, people sometimes assume it's something we'll eventually be able to do
