I'll be the sacrificial dumb guy here. Are the posts here just copy/paste, or is there a way to force some emojis together? Secondary question, how do I just type in a Unicode value into my phone keyboard to get an emoji?

    Question one: yes and no. Most of the vomiting emojis shared here in comments are fake made using googles emoji kitchen thing. But there are many real modifiers for emojis like skin color or adding accents like tildes to regular english alphabet characters.

    Question two: Modern keyboards typically have most emojis built in for you to select through. I dont think typing in the unicode values will automatically convert on phone operating systems but this might help if using windows or programming into a website.

    the XKCD explained article on this actually gave some really great info.

    It's not ai generated... yet. Right now these are made and approved by google. That's why you don't see the eggplant, peach or gun.

    I will completely forget to come back and check this, but if you get an answer, would you mind hollering at me and letting me know?

    Ok. It took some research, but I think I have it worked out. You have to either be using the gboard keyboard or go to the emoji kitchen website. From the website, you can just combine, copy, and paste. From Gboard, you need to select the smiley face next to the space bar OR click the 4 squares and then go into "emoji." From there, you can select 2 emojis (assuming they are compatible) to create a new emoji, or select 1 and choose one of the recommendations. I can't get it to work from my phone in the Voyager app, but I also can't guarantee that's Voyager's problem vs. mine. It does work on my texting app, however, so I know it works. For further reference.
