I feel old reading that text, but I completely agree with the content. I prefer to use words… but sometimes images can express the intention better than the words can.
(funny thought - Ideograms might be peak language since they can have temporal/cultural “intonation” baked in… Emoji is just western cultures catching up with Chinese/Korean/Japanese Kanji)
Fun thought experiment but that made me imagine society falling apart so badly that everyone just walks around sign-language meme’ing on everyone else. Eeew.
My old fart brain really struggled reading that with all the emoji but it was completely worth it.
Edit hours later: I’ve read this a dozen times and every time I chuckle and feel a little better.
