A bunch of things have happened that have been building up for a while. I’m not sure if they’re important, but here they are. Several nations have decided that having nuclear weapons is bad. (None of these nations have nuclear weapons.) China has decided (somewhat uncharacteristically) to set up a foreign military presence. Chinese scientists teleported a photon. An iceberg came loose. And humans are causing Major Extinction Event number six. Otherwise, things are fine.
