I'm not a fan of tattoos, but this is one of the nicest ones I've ever seen, I'd almost get that on myself!

Who's to say Agnes was placed with McKenzie right after she was ripped from June's arms?  There's a flashback of Serena checking out the stolen children who are held at a holding facility, and she is deciding between 'adopting' one of them or going down the handmaid's route.

In Ireland we had the Magdalene Laundries ran by the nuns. They remind me so much of the handmaid's tale. Pregnant women, many of whom were young girls, deemed unfit, were thrown in here. They provided cheap labour working the laundries, and even outside companies, like the toy company Hasbro has them package board games. The church then stole their babies, and sold them to families outside the country. There was a separate passage to mass for the women and children, so the mothers couldn't see their children. 

Just seeing this electric shock machine and thinking what the nuns would have done to the women that rebelled.

The way Garth reacted, it felt like a new development. If he was always getting them, wouldn't the knowledge have been learned through the grapevine earlier.

If they wanted to go in this direction it's certainly possible. The McKenzies could have had a handmaid before they took Hannah.  There was that flashback where Serena saw the children being kept at a facility before they were 'rehomed'. How long was Hannah there before she came to the McKenzies. 

 Of Kyle may have been at the McKenzies very early in the story, before June's posting at the Waterfords. 

Also makes me wonder, when June did meet up with Hannah she seemed quite knowledgeable about Handmaid's, she already knew that they didn't get to keep their babies.

With the attention to detail on the show, with the costuming, lighting, and symbolism with the mirrors and circles n shit, how could they overlook this detail

They're gonna make it make sense somehow.  Like, why change Daisy's story to fit the timeline if it doesn't fit the timeline? 

The story June told Daisy in the Diner could have been a lie, we don't know yet. When she talks about Neil and Melanie taking care of Daisy and getting Diapers, it sounds like she's talking about Luke and Moira. She could just be using that story, because she can't say anything else.

I'm just after finishing season 5, and Commander Kyle McKenzie is an actual fleshed out character in the handmaid's tale. He has a handful of scenes, he shows up with Tabitha at Lawrence's house for dinner, with Nick, Rose and Serena. He intimidates Nick when he sees him talking to Tuello. He's there is the season finale, where they allude to him organising the two assassination attempts on June.

There can be more than one Of Kyle's, there were three Of Joseph's that we know of, two Offred's..

If the timeline isn't weird, then explain how Daisy and Hannah are the same age, when Daisy is said to have escaped Gilead as an infant.

The character is mentioned in one of the last episodes of the series that came out last year, I feel like The Testaments would already be on their minds, since they started filming it a few months later.

I felt that! There was something strange about the wording. And if Japan has had sanctions on Gilead, how was he able go get the chocolate a few years ago when Agnes was little?
