I personally support the idea of local time, which is always flowing
forward in the local environment, but which is not universal.

What is the range of Earth time, then?

If timer is local (opposite to 'universal'), than Earth time is valid on Earth or nearby.
In other locations even the direction of time does not need to be the same.
This means:
there might be regions of the universe, where time runs backwards from our perspective.
Such regions are invisible and may eventually drift right through our world and we could not see them.
I use the catch phrase 'universe around the corner' for this effect (instead of 'parallel universe').

I regard matter as 'timelike stable patterns'.
This includes 'timelike', hence matter is 'frame dependent'.
This is a very unusual concept, hence you should read about my idea in my 'book':
