Not necessarily… I think there has been some good theories, and perhaps this one has been given.
I'm envisioning 2 timelines the future as in days from start phase 2, will reveal past events that have happened… as in rewind back to the start of date. Maybe it's a simple as day 1 of qdrops is day one of the current timeline, as in revels that happened already going back to the qdrops / past timeline.
I dunno though, but if it's something like this we can predict the news and nobody could ever doubt Q and/or us.
