Damn, trying to give a clever reply, on how black holes might be wormholes into a slower or faster dimension but not our own past, I fell into the rabbit hole of "if higgs field gives particles mass, and mass causes gravity, does that mean higgs field is effecting spacetime, because space time is effected by gravity?"

Of course they don't because one is standard model of particle physics and the other theory of general relativity.

The Higgs field affects spacetime by causing gravity, which bends both space and time.

I recommend PBS Space Time on YouTube,. If you think you fell down a rabbit hole for this post, brother, there's a whole universe waiting for you! And, it's presented by a delightful Australian bloke.
