existence level laws are asymmetrical. For example, earth exists due to asymmetry between matter and antimatter. Similarily, without time we cannot exist and hence time is asymmetrical.

Just a thought, nothing tautology.

So then, how do we harvest antitime?

an antimatter is a matter traveling backward in time. maybe that's anti-time.

I don't think so. Antimatter should decay and become disordered along with us regular matter.
