I am the person formerly known as mr_skullhead on the hellhole formerly known as Twitter. I created the game Blocks from Hell many years ago, and a couple of kids more recently. She/Her.
Another great example of the adage that when a newspaper headline ends in a question mark, the answer is "No."

Okay, there. I think that's everything of mine that I'd miss from Twitter, so feel free to eject it into the sun or whatever.

So, a botanist astronaut gets left behind in an emergency and is stranded on a dangerous planet, and must figure out how to survive and rig up a communications device to try to get rescued. I think The Martian might be a remake of E.T.

I don't keep up with Super Smash Bros; have they already added the L-shaped tetromino as a playable character? That would definitely get my attention.

NATURE FACT: You can tell the age of a Galapagos Tortoise by counting the candles on its birthday cake.

If you want to abolish the police in their current form, you need to have some idea what would take their place. For example, what would become the 6th-leading cause of death for young black men? Which profession would have the highest incidence of domestic violence?

"Alexa, play Jenny Jenny."
"Now playing Eight Million Six Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Three Hundred Nine Jenny Jenny by Tommy Tutone."

"Somebody should make open-source ticket-tracking software called Hot Potato", he noted while transferring ownership to Desktop Support.

Weird how violent video games and movies haven’t caused much of a problem in countries where people can’t easily buy the guns featured in them.

Learn about Tex-Mex food beforehand to order like a pro. For example, a soft-shell taco is just a hard-shell taco that has recently moulted.

I mean, without context, "Snitches get stitches" sure sounds like a line from a Dr. Seuss book.

The Carpenters may have meant it rhetorically, but "Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near" kinda deserves a real explanation.

Ever the perfectionist, Dr. Seuss spent hours each year calculating his taxes on his trusty abacus.

Lots of toddlers SAY they want to be a fire truck when they grow up, but they're not willing to practice as hard as the kid in this Target.

Actually, this city was built on the ruins of a city from an ancient, mysterious civilization. But *that* one was built on rock and roll.

Every time I select "Lock the Taskbar" in Windows, I get The Clash stuck in my head. That's not just me, right?

You know, now that I think about it, I'm not sure Sir Mix-A-Lot was *ever* officially knighted.

I'm amused that I was scanned at the airport for anything dangerous, yet the flight attendant just gave me coke to go with my mentos.

For a minute I thought my dentist's office was playing
Skrillex, but it was just somebody getting an emergency bridge replacement.

I'm no Solitaire expert, but I'm pretty sure it's weird that the version on my phone has a multiplayer option.

If I had a hammer, I'd hammer at a reasonable time, having consideration for neighbors who work weird hours. Is that so hard, folk singers?

I'm starting to think the world is not ready for my latest idea, the Murphy Fridge.

I bet the Alien always has really bad heartburn. That's probably why he's so pissed off.

I am surprised to realize that I've never seen a redneck use a ratcheting tie-down as a belt.
