The base of my cactus is starting to turn a much lighter shade of green, and looks squishy. The lower spines have turned brown— what’s going on?

Your cactus is likely suffering from stem rot. Normally you are supposed to cut off the infected part of the stem, but unfortunately the cactus IS the stem. I don’t know how to help, other than to tell you not to get water on that area for 2-3 weeks.
