          Sadly I didn’t think of it, but I’m determined to spread it around because it’s so frigging brilliant.

        There really needs to be a chefs kiss emoji

        Let’s go Apple!

        (Edit: yes, I know Lemmy hates Apple, but they’ve been the only one of the five companies - the others are Samsung, Google, Meta, and Microsoft - on the UNICODE board overseeing emojis that have actually bothered to make any new emoji for the past 15 years.)

            Lmao, shit no. They’re not even remotely American, either. They were a big deal in Japan in, like, the 90s while we primitives were still using emoticons like simpletons ;)

            And even they, with their kanji, could write superior emoticons thusly ツ

            I’m no weeb, but give some credit to Apple for dragging us turds into the 21st century and keeping our texts fresh 😉👍

            And Apple gave us the rainbow flag emoji, my personal fav 🏳️‍🌈 to celebrate marriage quality in the United States.
