GoKawiilUnicode Approves Nine New Emoji Including a Pickle, Set for 2027
The Unicode Consortium approved nine new emoji on Sept. 16, including a pickle, a cracking face, left and right thumb gestures, a monarch butterfly, a lighthouse, a meteor, an eraser and a net with a handle. The cracking face replaces an originally proposed squinty face after a recommendation from the Unicode Emoji Standard & Research Working Group in January.
