This idea of some time travel agent being stuck in a world of non-anti-matter where everything behaves _so_ backwards that -- -- anyway, it seems conceptually very similar to being inside karl! where part of karl tries to do A at the same time as other part tries to do ~A and it exhausts energy to maintain harsh disparate adjacency everywhere. crossing border just doesn't work, but there it is, a world of opposites
