@ChanceyFleet Haha I use :blobcatheart: (blob cat heart; I used zero-width spaces both to separate words and to stop it from converting that to the actual emoji, hopefully that made it readable) in chat software that doesn't have custom emoji all the time, and we're sighted! Just typing the emoji code.

@ChanceyFleet Nice! I was in a friendgroup clustered around a forum were the php bbcode for a sad cheerleader smiley was :nopompom:. At some point we started using that when just speaking to each other.
"Oh, that is really no pom-pom."

@ChanceyFleet I'm not blind, and I think this is a wonderful idea! : underpants_on_the_outside :
Absolutely. I frequently have no idea what an emoji is supposed to be.

@ChanceyFleet In love this! And I don't have to be blind to do it! Finally, I can have all the emojis I need! :hand on chest thank you:
Thank you so much. It's embarrassing that it took so long, but I feel liberated!

@ChanceyFleet That's awesome, tactile graphics lab in NYC sounds super cool! Raised-line emoji is genius. Glad the replies spiced up your commute.
Will definitely check out talkingbooks.nypl.org — love that libraries are still doing rad stuff like this.
Safe travels and keep being awesome!

I had to write instructions in MS Word referencing a file on a
drive. People would ask me why I thought that was so funny. 
Ugh, yes. So much "help" making me want to scream.
