    When Blind people send emoji to Blind people, we are picking a text description from a list and receiving the same.
    Let's become ungovernable. Simply type the emoji in text.
    While you're at it, include emoji that do not exist.
    Melting popsicle.
    Broken umbrella.
    Crying horse.
    Pizza rat.

    We really can do anything

    @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."

      Absolutely. I frequently have no idea what an emoji is supposed to be.

                            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.

                                      When Blind people send emoji to Blind people, we are picking a text description from a list and receiving the same.
                                      Let's become ungovernable. Simply type the emoji in text.
                                      While you're at it, include emoji that do not exist.
                                      Melting popsicle.
                                      Broken umbrella.
                                      Crying horse.
                                      Pizza rat.

                                      We really can do anything
