representation is important. thank you unicode team.

this is the illustration submitted in the spec

the spec also outlines how the emoji will appeal to new parents, heavy drinkers, shift workers, and university students and employees

https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2023/23260-eye-bags-face-emoji.pdf

@molly0xfff appeal factor definitely checks out
@molly0xfff new parents is the first thing they mention. Lolsob. 😂🫠

@molly0xfff can't believe the supporting evidence was gathered pre #covid.

*Foreshadowing intensifies*

@az @molly0xfff it was post-2016, we were pretty exhausted
@molly0xfff perfect illustration of my life when my premie twins were learning to sleep and eat
@molly0xfff "will appeal to heavy drinkers" god bless the representation of marginalized groups
@molly0xfff "eye bags face" -- name of my new band
@tastytronic @molly0xfff Just imagine showing these two boxes to someone working with Unicode standards 25 years ago, and asking them to guess what possible submission this could be.
@molly0xfff yes. Think about the heavy drinker demographic
@molly0xfff haha nice one. Though I'm not sure it's very readable at the small scale, the eyebags and mouth conflict a bit imo
@molly0xfff the asymmetrical eyebrows really makes it for some reason
@molly0xfff This will become my most used emoji.
@molly0xfff I always have the eyebags. A genetic gift like cilantro tasting like soap. 😅
@molly0xfff I love how the generic term is “smiley”, considering the expression here is anything but smiling

@molly0xfff OMG!

Team eye bags for life!

@molly0xfff hell yeah! I think I'm gonna make sure my vtuber girl has them lol
@molly0xfff finally! But I need one with tears welling-up right now.
@molly0xfff please tell me there's a EYEGLASSES COMBINING CHARACTER that can be used on it, I really need it for a friend. That friend is me.
@molly0xfff that's me with dermatitis under eyes & tired!
@molly0xfff Voting immediately for the official name : "I'm tired of this shit"
@molly0xfff
I did not give them permission to use my likeness!!
@APBBlue
@molly0xfff This face - so useful!
@hoco @molly0xfff I can identify to much with the fly. And probably shouldn't let anyone know.
@molly0xfff That's just a picture of my face. Who made an emoji with my face? I need to be paid for this. I am appalled.
@molly0xfff is that the emojii for "professor"?
@molly0xfff Strong "Abe Lincoln is sick of your shit" vibes.
@molly0xfff I would send this to the next stranger from the internet, who asks for a picture, if it wouldn't be so personal.
@molly0xfff I feel seen, thank you Unicode rockstars!
@molly0xfff and yet no bipride flag...
@Sharr0w i feel like this emoji is a step closer, at least, for those of us who are bisexual and tired
@molly0xfff Very cool, thx - I just added it to datasci.social!
Testing:
- Data cleaning is going well 
- The data is available in pdf format 
- This deep neural network could have been a linear regression 

@molly0xfff Meanwhile, I'm grumpy there's no cheetah emoticon, only leopard

:(

@molly0xfff Nowadays there are more facial expressions as #emojis than among humans ;)
@molly0xfff that topic is such a rabbit hole. I just learned that one can adopt a character:

@itsmealexander @molly0xfff thanks for taking me with you into this specific rabbit hole. I'm still undecided whether this is really cute or really stupid... 🤔
@lizzard @molly0xfff
Haha, felt the same. However, I somehow cannot stop thinking about adopting the 🦆 .
@molly0xfff The Unicode team is responsive to our needs.
@molly0xfff I'll probably use it whenever people try to engage me in the latest tech hype...
@molly0xfff Someone made an emoji just for me! I am loved!
@molly0xfff We need this as a base combiner for ALL  other face emojis.
@molly0xfff love it! Do we know the codepoint?
