Can you see emojis like 🖤💜😅👝🎶🤔🐯🎄🎈🎯🎱📢🔕💰 and 📎

When they're posted in a DU subject line?

Describe the ones you can't see. Be creative.

Then convince me emojis aren't leading us back toward hieroglyphics

Occasionally, I’ll see an emoji that presents as a black square.

We may be headed toward hieroglyphics. It started with male and female symbols for restrooms. Perhaps we’re being dumbed down to the point that no thought is so complicated that it can’t be expressed with an emoji.

There’s one there that I can’t see.

You can tell by the updraft there’s a hole. Some rotten smell.

I can hear something scratching. I get closer to try see and shine a light down. Millions of insects.

Scarabs looking to feed after thousands of years in the grave.

Back when we still used hieroglyphics.
