   unicode emoji should be ban'd. Extremely annoying to show a symbol it becomes a fucking emoji.

   if you have ◀ ▶ ⏯, the latter becomes a fking emoji. adding U+FE0E does not always work. And in MacOS, it has a bug forcing emoji tiny

      Our civilization is decadent and our language – so
      the argument runs – must inevitably share in the general collapse. It follows
      that any struggle against the abuse of language is a sentimental archaism, like
      preferring candles to electric light or hansom cabs to aeroplanes. Underneath
      this lies the half-conscious belief that language is a natural growth and not an
      instrument which we shape for our own purposes.
