Answer






These are all clues with the subscripts enumerating the answers:
-- / -- BE
C / O / AC
A / BED / D
There are two of each letter, A-E. Read these as flag semaphore to get MERGE.






The three categories are "words that can come before BOARD", "words that can come before CRAFT" , and "words that can come before TEXT". The middle word is HOVER.





This is a cryptic clue: "Trump supporter, debatably" is PUTIN, and switching sides makes that into INPUT (with definition "gave advice to").





The shapes of these objects are letters spelling out MOUSE.






This is a rebus: MINER + VENTS - NERVE = MINTS.





A LARGE INTESTINE is a "colon", and an ERA is a "period" (the bottom half of a colon, as in punctuation marks). The second part is a "semicolon" since it's half of the clue for colon, so the corresponding word is COMMA.






Each puzzle has five numbers below it. Match each five-letter answer to five numbers, then read off the numbers in order from 1 to 30 to get "UMMM SOME CREATIVE PUN OR SOMETHING".
