    Reminds me of Egyptian hieroglyphs that depict weird incomplete animals.

    Raadho the engraver had to go pee and forgot to finish a drawing, and now it’s a Unicode symbol whose rendition comes with billions of devices.

    Unicode is weird. They have super-progressive emoji but then they add the hieroglyph for slave trade.

      you can say “the slave trade is bad” and not get harangued for using the words “slave trade”

      hell you can even say “the slave trade is good” and turn off notifications and would never know.
