If the Multiverse is a thing, then that timeline has happened somewhere and our future selves visited us. Ahahaha. That would be trippy.
In this Multiverse though, it looks like we become the Borg, so they would have already collected all the info they needed and thus have no need to go back in time.
also because it is genuinely impossible to move faster than light as matter, let alone survive it
That's why you make the space move around you instead.

That's not related to time travel though, but that's a link to an actual irl concept of a warp engine.
that's so cool
All those random scraps of metal you find lying are just the end result of someone trying to travel back in time and the time machine not surviving
Now I just wanna watch Primer again.
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
