To me it just seems like these are meant to be like individual scenes that are thought about without any form of additional context apart from what is presented to us. Like it's a series of multiple shorts detailing random and weird things that occur around the world with no form of relation to one another. Yet even with that there is this strange feeling that all these stories take place in the same world, with just a different time and place. As though it is all meant to show how the happenings in the world can seem rather random and separate even if they are all within the same universe. We cannot really comprehend how every single thing happening in the world would connect with one another as it would prove too complex to draw links to each other. Despite that it still happens in the same setting (a worldwide setting that is).
In essence I think this just shows how random and separated these events can be in the world.
Though I suppose I'm thinking too much into it, which I probably am.
