All this weirdness in a week?
Swamp gas.
Hackers playing with the Power Grids.
Mechanical stuff happens.
Somebody else have at.
I haven’t slept in 3 days due to “daycare Plague”
Do the math on what % of total flights occurred during that time. I’d venture to guess the instances you mentioned are extremely low % of total flights.
There are 10,000 sealed federal indictments from 2017 sitting in courts around the US right now (1000 per year is about “normal”) and those corruptocrats in our government and their enablers are trying to leave the country real quiet like. Expect “funny business” and odd excuses for it to continue as the rats try to abandon the ship. Expect CEO resignations and congresscritters to abruptly decide not to seek reelection to continue with perhaps as many as 30 congresscritters not returning from winter break.
“A passenger on a delayed Ryanair flight from London who apparently got fed up waiting to get off a plane after it landed in the southern Spanish city of Malaga surprised fellow passengers by using the emergency exit to jump onto a wing.”

You may not be as off the mark as you seem to think.
I know for a fact that in the past two days I heard a report on Fox25 Boston about a plane that had to turn back to its terminal.
(How do I know? Because I was suckered in by one of their "teases": I was about to leave the room when they said "When we come back, why this flight returned to the terminal at Logan." I was interested in the "why," so I waited through the commercial break.) It turned out to be something that officials said was no big deal after all.
So, I was going to add it to your list.
But what happened?
I went to the website for Fox 25 Boston, and used their search function -- powered by Google -- and there was no mention of the incident found when entering either the word "flight" or "Logan."
Furthermore, they provide only ten pages of results. No more.
And the search results are not in chronological order.
The result being, they can show you any results they feel like showing you, and omit any they don't want you to see. And if challenged, can always fall back on plausible deniability: "Well, they're not in chronological order, they are in order of popularity, you understand, and your search just wasn't popular. It wasn't that we didn't show it to you; it just didn't make the top ten pages of search results."
Result: you can't find a recent story about a plane abandoning its flight plan on this website, although you know it was on this website.
And I do believe that is, no accident, nor mere incompetence, but by design.
