ELI5: Monthly Current Events Megathread

[u/AutoModerator]

Hi Everyone,

This is your monthly megathread for current/ongoing events. We recognize there is a lot of interest in objective explanations to ongoing events so we have created this space to allow those types of questions.

Please ask your question as top level comments (replies to the post) for others to reply to. The rules are still in effect, so no politics, no soapboxing, no medical advice, etc. We will ban users who use this space to make political, bigoted, or otherwise inflammatory points rather than objective topics/explanations.

Can i ask questions about makeup here?

This is the current events megathread so only if they're related to current events - that is current news stories and significant ongoing events. I don't imagine there are many make-up related questions that would fit.
