What is the Timeline of HS^2 right now?

So it seems like we are sticking to the Candy timeline for the foreseeable future. However there seems to be something odd going on with the timeline.
IT appears as if the 2 chapters are happening near simultaneously which leaves a few big questions. For starters, it at first seemed like these events were happening after the epilogues. It is never specifically stated but it had this feeling that this was at some point after Calliope left. There was also the weird inconsistency, or apparent one, where Jane doesn't even seem to know bout the divorce papers or anything.
Then comes yesterday' second chapter, and we have things picking up directly after Vriska texts Terezi and ends up trying to dispose of Gamzee's corpse. However as said it appears as if these incidents are happening side by side and it seems like Vriska spent the whole night texting TErezi. Which is reasonable i suppose. However this seems to contradict a few things. That Jake had been living with John for several days, a week approximately, so why is he with Jane. And what about those damn divorce papers?
It could just be some mistakes. They nailed a lot of other details, that John's home was a total mess for example. But seem to be overlooking the detailed amount of time here and a couple of other things perhaps. It is a lot to work with.
At this point i think the most likely possibility is that this is actually taking place a week before Calliope's departure. Or, even more likely, that this segment of the story takes place over the week itself. That Jake simply continued to live in John's house while secretly meeting Jane ever day or so maybe. He faked the divorce papers because he couldn't bring himself to admit he was still seeing Jane, even if it was for the purpose of espionage. And in some way all of these may in fact lead up to Calliope's portal. She rather strangely, just gazed into the portal for a long, time. Hmm.
It is also possible that there is some greater shenanigans afoot than that but i think its the most reasonable. Unless anyone has their own theories?
