We present temporal and time-integrated spectral analyses of 148 bursts from the latest activation of SGR J1935+2154, observed with the Fermi/Gamma-ray Burst Monitor from 2019 October 4 through 2020 May 20, excluding an ∼130 s segment with a very high burst density on 2020 April 27. The 148 bursts presented here are slightly longer and softer than bursts from earlier activations of SGR J1935+2154, as well as from other magnetars. The long-term spectral evolution trend is interpreted as being associated with an increase in the average plasma loading of the magnetosphere during bursts. We also find a trend of increased burst activity from SGR J1935+2154 since its discovery in 2014. Finally, we find no association of typical radio bursts with X-ray bursts from the source. This contrasts the association of FRB 200428 with an SGR J1935+2154 X-ray burst, which is to-date unique among the magnetar population.
