Dougie has no history prior to 1997, which is also the year that Bill Hastings' website got going, fwiw.

I also think that at one point Cooper's birthday is shown on a document to be the same as Hastings' birthday (8/15/73), which would of course make no sense, but I need to check on that/find it in the show. I am relying more on a recollection of someone saying this than I am on the show itself. Not that I would know quite what to do with it, anyway.

Yes about Diane's bracelets, but even more "straightforward" is the fact that the timestamp on the 🙂 ALL text message is different each time she looks at it

Oh wow, that’s a great catch. Very significant.

Yeah, I was all over that from the beginning. Just pulled up my notes. When she gets it the stamp says 16:31, when she responds with coordinates it is 16:44, and when she looks again right before the shooting it is 15:50. Make of that what you will 🙂

Now that I think about it I think I did notice that at the time, but my brain couldn't figure out why it would be happening so it kind of shelved / ignored it.

Perhaps since Lodge entities seems to exist outside of time ("Is it future or is it past?") then their activities on Earth can warp time too, and aspects of reality.

After all, among his other abilities, Bad Coop employed some odd reality-altering technology like when he made all the alarms in the prison go off, or when he did used a voodoo tech device to disrupt the tracker on the car he and Ray were in.

Someone may have touched on this, but I was watching a Pete Peppers YouTube vid about episode 14. In the scene with the Fireman and Andy he notes that the telephone pole with the number 6 on it is shown three times. First the shot is in black and white, then it is slightly colored, and then in full color. This is the exact same telephone pole which Cooper sees in Odessa at Carrie’s House. The black and  white to color suggests a potential reality that then becomes an actual reality once Coop intervenes with Laura in the forest in 1989   

So the fireman is showing andy a scene which we the audience haven’t yet experienced. Suggesting perhaps that Coop was inevitably going to end up dislodged from time or that in fact his trip to Odessa happens outside or before the timeline we experience as audience. It’s again paradoxical and circular like Möbius strip. An event that “hasn’t happened yet” is shown as if it’s already in the past. This may be more evidence that the opening scenes of the return are indeed the fireman warning Coop that he’s heading for another reality and to try to remember who he is when he gets there.

So I guess the central question is, has always been, and will always be:Image result for twin peaks is it future or is it past

And the answer might be, "Both." :->
